I am relatively new to this forum. I am known around here for my controversial "syndicate" plays.

Well, someone email me casually on the forum. We exchanged emails back and forth. One day i explained to him that I was struggling getting enough money down on games because one of my locals went out of business. I NEVER asked this guy to take bets. He offered, and said he had an agent he would lay them off with.

Well, I won near 5-digits from him his weekend. Now he has turned delusional and is giving me the run around. And I am sure I am not getting paid.

His email address is: james.brown@auab.aorcentaf.af.mil

If anyone has any info on this guy, just let me know. I guess I have learned my lesson. Stay away from this scammmer.

Well, he is definitely in the U.S. Air Force because that is an Air Force email. Dunno if that means anything in your case. Hope you get your money.

With all the solid offshore books out there, I hate to say you had that coming, but man, you shouldn't be going through some random ass guys with your bets. I know plenty of books that would bend over backwards to get your some nice perks if you were moving anywhere near what you say you are !

JC, I know who it is. It's a well-known poster here (and other forums). Moderators, is it best to take this sort of thing to email? If so, how do I contact JC? I'd like to know more details before I get involved.

Looking around the internet I see that

auab.aorcentaf.af.mil

is

Al Udeid Air Force Base in Qatar.

There is reason from other people's emails around the internet to suggest that James Brown is indeed this guys name, though we can not be sure.

so who's the poster? If he's scamming it's only fair to let others know so they don't get scammed too.

Yes, you have my permssion to say who it is if he is scamming others. Though I'm a little pessimistic about the whole thing I will play along.

Just to clarify one thing: I'm not saying the person in question is necessarily a scammer. I don't know JC Dimer nor anything about the details he posted. Because of this, I'm hesitant to post the id in a public forum. But I do know for certain whose email id it is. I've passed that along to The General along with some other info. He's looking into things now.

Not sure which is dumber:

1. Making thousands of dollars of bets with someone that you only know by their E-Mail address.
2. Expecting to get paid the $10K if you win.

I've had some response - and all indications is that this guy posts under the name JT Sneaks
