New name same old member

Hey guys just a warning my username was v.lats97nsx and got suckered into phishing scam some how. Being a pledge member and having my posts racking up, while meeting new friends and talking with a lot of good genuine members I lost it all so be careful. So please keep me in mind. for the last 8 months this place has been a little refuge/oasis for my little addiction. I am happy to return and please anyone on here watch out for any pm messages with a link.

Welcome Back, Sorry to hear that you got caught out but that stuff happens.
You were just unlucky, not the luckiest guy ever, like me. I have just been contacted by the son of the former king of Nigeria and if I send him $3,000 to release his locked fortune, he will give me 1.5 million dollars. Wow, imagine all of the Rolexes I could buy with that

Welcome back. Sorry about the phishing scam but I do like your new name better.

BTW, I'm waiting for the $7.5 Mil. my Nigerian contact he would send me as soon as I sent him the $5K it would take to set up an account to transfer his $25 Mil. into.

So it seems the scammer is using your name on WUS with terrible photoshop photos "proving" that he has the watches. I reported him a few days ago- but they have not removed his listings. Be careful out there!
