Typically in a situation like this we let the accusations go, and allow the accused to defend themselves. That already occurred and went down in flames elsewhere, and now everyone from BA to Reddit to TG themselves have identified and confirmed the guy's identity. It's pretty far beyond the normal situation at this point. This guy has single-handedly caused a disproportionate amount of damage across various beer/wine/whiskey trading communities.

Still, that said, I'm referring more to the entertainment value of what's happening on FB and elsewhere.
I'd recommend against posting anything just for your own liability, this guy seems legitimately crazy and it's better to not be exposed even to a frivolous lawsuit.
 
Bumping for timeliness.

Background for anyone who hasn't seen (also info on the Bro-channel which I won't link to):

I think this guy has been punished enough without having had his face and name dragged about through the internet. This is certainly crossing the line of decency, even for a known scammer in the community. I think the best course of action is to refrain from any further public shaming.

LOL JK. **** that guy.

I'm just waiting for the punchline or the big reveal. Like... The finance professor thing just doesn't seem to make any sense. Something else has to be going on here. Right??

Mod edit:
MrVonzipper warned us about this guy months ago, but unfortunately through a series of additional accounts across various channels he was able to scam a whole lot more people leading up to his identification in 12/2014. If you're an active trader, please do yourself a favor and familiarize yourself with the person described here to avoid becoming a victim.



Original post:

The dude has some serious ******* mental issues and is a complete liar. Careful. Just don't want anyone to get burned.

Heres some info of the situation on how he lied his way out if a trade with another BA and then was a dick about being caught in the lie.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/beertraderisoft/permalink/421042728012187/

I made a Trader Beware post about him. It got deleted. He then in retaliation created thread lying about how I screwed him in a trade and was a bad guy.

Now he's trying to clear his name, after seeing how many people had nothing good to say about him in my thread yesterday, in Mordormongo's thread that he kindly made for me so I could get needed info for people and trades. In doing so he's lying again saying that I said horrible things to him privately, of course. No proof. Well here's the proof and the extent if what I said to him, because he clearly has issues and is a pathological liar.

I don't know if the dude is on here. If so I'm sure he is under another or troll account. I just wanted to make you guys aware to prevent anyone from getting burned. It's sad. 99% of the people I have come across in the beer community are amazingly great people. It's unfortunate people like this have and continue to hurt the beer/trading community. Cheers!
You know I saw warnings about Edwardfortyhands for the first time yesterday in a TB thread someone linked to BA. That dude responded to a trade post I made when I still had a BA account. He seemed awfully sketchy and pushy to get the trade done quickly. Thankfully we were never able to come to an agreement on the trade so I passed. A little unnerving to think that someone would try to screw me over again. ggwheeler from BA made off with $100 worth of good Jester King beers and other TX locals. Then he proceeded to drink and check the beers in on Untappd.
 
Go check out his Rate My Professor page. His professional reputation is receding faster than that hairline of his

Can someone link me to his name or professor page? If it's not allowed in this thread, can you PM me it? I am not going to write anything. Promise. No need to get my hands in this internet poo.

His name is already in this thread. Just look closely.
I'm kind of running around the office and haven't read the thread from start to finish. I got 2 PM's in a matter of secs with the link. Thanks guys! I'll read it when I have another moment to sit down with popcorn.

From his RatemyProfessor page: "I was inspired by his application of advanced supply chain reinvention and recycling concepts applied in a real world way to the microbrewing industry. He was able to teach us how to generate profits from undesirable assets (empty bottles). We also explored concepts in commerce fraud. He's a master at exploiting others for windfall profits."

:rolleyes:
 
Hey JC, good to see you on here as well. Looks like both boxes are coming today..

It was 5-6 confirmed with pics on the Bros site, plus at least 150 ppl getting in car accidents rushing home to check their bottles

"No honey, the brown bottle, does it look like the wax is, you know, fake?"
