More can be done to scammers.

[James 1]

Hi,

I would just like to say I'm fed up with this bull shit, scammers need to be punished more. People even staff in this forum have this notion that nothing can be done, and nothing should be done to those who steal to profit them selves.

I think that that's absolute bull shit, and more should be done, and should me.

I would like Mick to start taking action.

u literally wanted a staff to dox somebody who scammed $10 and file a police report against them

No, I wanted a staff member who has an individuals dox to do the right thing and report it to the police.

When you signed up for MCM, you agreed to the following, if you bothered to read it, and therefore in theory, Mick doesn't actually have to do anything. It is your responsibility to get a middleman and to verify the sellers identity before you purchase or sell goods or services, and in the event you get scammed, you should take the relevant actions needed, e.g a chargeback. Also read the privacy policy, as MCM is not obligated to provide personal information unless required by law or if the individual requests it.

I don't understand as to why people are trying to bash on me. All I'm suggesting is that some changes could be put into effect that helps imprison criminals.

Mick supplies people's information such as ip etc if required by law. If you start something and mention this site, he will give over the information. Just need to be motivated enough to do it

You know, that's actually quite debatable at the moment, considering that Australian courts have ruled metadata as not being "personal information" and is therefore not covered by Privacy Laws. (Metadata includes IP addresses etc;and MCM is based in Australia)

After adding up 3 pages of users that have gotten scammed the total amount is over 5 grand. What people fail to realize is that this is a business Forum where thousands of dollars of transactions go down quite frequently. This shouldn't be taken so likely.

Already been discussed, they don't have Chump's DoX. Also... if you think the authorities are going to go after a 13 year old kid who scammed 100$ based off what is, in court, very minimal evidence.... you are in for a very woeful surprise.

Scamming is an unfortunate thing that happens in any marketplace, particularly when they're based on the internet. Scammers are always punished and banned from the site when they do scam, but pushing the blame on to me that other people are scamming is quite frustrating.

MC-Market puts the security of our users' data above us getting 'revenge' for them scamming, and expecting us to release information about people is not only considered immoral by me, but also we can never guarantee a 100% success rate with scam reports. I'm sure that at least once out of every few hundred scam reports made the verdict is not correct and this could mean we would give out the IP, other information about an innocent person.

1) by using this site you put yourself at risk
2) what more can staff do?

seriously dude if you want to file a police report go ahead, the staff can't hold your hand in whatever you do so take accountability for yourself
