Also im sure i read somewhere they can use the IP address to help Identify him, for possable prosecution if someone was to persue it, Also they would have an account of all his/her emails so im guessing can also contact all the people he has conned thats if he is dumb enough to use his own home IP address !

adamg67 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Same thing with an SRC6, easy enough to spot, he sent me a link to another user's feedback thread so I double checked but was already pretty sure. Looks like it's all sorted now, for that user anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mingsta Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Well done mate for reporting. This marions responded to a wanted post that I put up yesterday, but fortunately I was already sorted. Just shows that you can't let your guard down even on basschat as there's alwaysthe chance of scammers from outside the community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albinokiller Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I am REAL Mario Salopek and this Marions uses my name and basschat username...and why me...why not someone elses name...stupid scamers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
