My intention was never to get this guy in trouble with his PO. I didn't even know he was on parole when I confronted him.
No, I was not scammed, but I feel that being an active member in a community that deals with buying/selling/trading funds online that I have some sort of responsibility of making the community aware what this guy is capable of.
This guy was ordered to pay restitution to his victims in another scam that dealt with selling fraudulent airline tickets on Craigslist, but he was never ordered to pay back any of the people he scammed in the poker community and I just don't think it's right that he gets to come back in into the poker community incognito to a majority of the community (he wasn't even going by his real name on Facebook).
I done some looking back at past trades he's done on the Facebook page and in his 2 years of trading there hasn't been any scams that I can see. So what I decided to do was 1, have him post on the 6 year old 2+2 thread asking for his victims to come forward so he can work out something with them to make it right and 2, let the admins/moderators of the Facebook page know and they could handle it how they see fit.
The only time I ever "threatened" this guy was after he went off on me saying if I out him I'm going to fuck up everything, ruin his life, etc...I threatened that if I did hear of another scam I would directly content his PO.
