Speaking of fraudsters, could any expert on email headers please look peruse
the following sets of headers from posts over the last couple of months and
advise whether

a) there is a strong possibility the posts all originated from the same
source

b) there is insufficient evidence to draw a conclusion.

I'm sure DME and Dr Zoidberg will see where this is going.. I've provided
some links at the end of the list.

Opinions welcomed..

Did you send any gear to him? If you did, hope you get it back!


Hi.

Thanks to you, Mike and Malev.

No - It was pretty apparent by the other details we had that the
transaction was going to charged back. The Name, Email account, False
telephone number, electoral search, etc. Also another surname was

used -
I
didn't post it as it's more than likely the proper card holders name.

As far as I'm concerned it's a legitimate thing to do - post details

that
are relevant to a transaction that failed because funds were used
fraudulently. Other retailers can search the last few days to make sure
they haven't shipped to that postcode, surname, email address, etc.

As for being called arrogant .... Most people who have been called

arrogant
here are long standing regulars who I have the upmost respect for - I'm
quite happy to be arrogant if that's what it takes to get on.

Thanks also to Paul B. This may not be an issue that we are going to

agree
on but at least I get an adult conversation.



The 'great unwashed' often interpret confidence that you know what you're
talking about as arrogance - primarily because they haven't got a clue

about
the subject matter and it's an easy insult.

Just out of interest, wouldn't the OP be breaking the law as far as Data
Protection Act?

It does make you wonder what agenda people like you have - would be
fraudsters perhaps? What a ****ed up World we live in.
