So it seems that I am dealing with a sociopath, since the party I paid in person has decided to post to this board.. http://www.mcafee.cc/Bin/sb.html Hey sociopath, since your brazen enough to come here, let's discuss our dealings here on ET... You know you want to, it makes you feel powerful...fess up right here. Cm on sociopath me and you.....3pm est. Here, I'll trace back in 24hrs. And we can begin.



Hey Rock, apart from the NDA, when you say these guys didn't deliver, can you be more specific? Just curious how difficult the task was that you were asking them to do.

And a word of advice, NEVER EVER do business with anyone you have not met in person. I know this message board makes it convenient for people to connect from all over the world, but con men thrive on here. It's very fertile ground. You need to look a man in the eye before you do business with him. And get everything in writing. People hide on these message boards for all sorts of reasons. If you live in some far out of the way place, make the investment to travel to see them. It's worth the cost.

And you really should provide their names here. You are only allowing them to con more people.

Well, this is the problem. Nobody talks like this to someone in person, I know you wouldn't if were in front of you.



I will tell you to your face.

Let's meet in Paris. Get me a first-class ticket ASAP!!!!

Also I need spending money while there, and a good hotel room.

People always wonder why 90% lose, they simply lose!!!!

This is reason #209387329084738924732

Note: When you call someone a "failed trader" I think in court you better be able to prove it or he will counter-sue for Libel!!!!

So what are these people's NAMES!!!!!

lol

I met an author of 2 commodity trading books, shook his hand, looked straight into his eyes asking can you trade for me, make me rich and he said 'sure'. I took back the account and terminated the trading agreement when it was down -75%.

That's not the same thing as HIRING someone to do ACTUAL work for you. If you hired me over the internet to build you a website for 5k and you paid me and never heard from me again, that's different then paying someone to "attempt" to make you money trading. Shit, had you given your money to John Paulson to manage last year he would have lost 50% of it. That doesn't mean he is a fraud. Apples and oranges here bud.

Dude put the cards (names) openly on the table or eat your loss and move on, I was showing a little sympathy for your stupidity initially but you keep on coming with all those "hints", guesses, "ET related", ...tell everyone who it is and deal with it head-on or leave it at that. But threatening others makes you look dumb, dumber when nobody responds and claims responsibility. Just my 2 cents (plus my thirst for drama)

I recently reached out to active participant on ET,



That was your first mistake. Obviously if someone is posting here, he has some kind of trading experience>>>more likely to use your strategy or know someone who might be able to.

Had you hired someone from your city, let's say a college student, beside dealing with him personally, chances are, he would be happy with the fee, and don't give a rat's ass about the strategy itself...

Also, first you could have given him a simpler (not even profitable) strategy just to see how he works and if he is honest when dealing with you.

Anyhow, I guess lesson learnt, and you will be more careful the next time...
