Steveocee Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 @proffrink is the admin. Can't think of any mods off the top of my head. ***In fact @L3wisD is the nicest mod, he'll normally swing anything in your favour for cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted August 3, 2020 Mostly Retired Moderators Share Posted August 3, 2020 Hi @Ujustgotsarged Sorry you might have been scammed. I'll do my best to help, but I can't always guarantee a good outcome. Can you do me a favour please? In the PM chain, report on of the messages (little flag in the top right) and it lets me in to see it all. And I'll take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I should also point out that knowing who he is & what he's touting may prevent others from falling victim in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaBear Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 We need to be carful that the whole GDPR debate doesn’t surface either. I’m all for naming and shaming but where does that stand on privacy rules ? #devilsadvocate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDPR specifically applies to organisations operating within the EU, and how those orgs deal with personal info - it doesn't apply here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 25, 2020 Supporters Share Posted August 25, 2020 DPA 2018 allows for (but does not compel) the disclosure of personal data for the prevention and detection of crime: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2018/12/schedule/2/paragraph/2 Fraud is a crime. Prevention is axiomatically pre-crime, so you don't necessarily have to even show that one has been committed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkee Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Either way I don't think a forum Username could in any way be said to be personal information, it would hardly identify someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
