Warning scammer the_sn1per@hotmail.co.uk

Today a person comes up to me msn the_sn1per@hotmail.co.uk
and says he wants to trade 50$ for 25 mil units.

Directs me to this feedback thread
http://www.herebegames.com/StarGateWars ... 48&t=90707
Author ThaSniper

Searching through his history i find that ThaSniper posted 4 weeks ago the followign text
"add me to MSN.
warrior_threat@hotmail.com"
In this thread
http://www.herebegames.com/StarGateWars ... 2#p1485812

Person did not want to send me units before receiving money. Coincidences piling up, which smells funny.

EDIT:
Ok, ThaSniper posted and confirmed that the_sn1per@hotmail.co.uk is not his msn. Do not fall for that trick
Guys take care of who you trade with

um, got this topic link sent to me by clarkey.
just a bit confused, i am warrior_threat@hotmail.com.
BUT the_sn1per@hotmail.com isnt me, actually i've never seen it.
my name on ascended is ThaSniper, but i just recently chose that name because i thought the player name 'ThaGeneral' sounded cool, but was already taken.
also, i have never offered to buy units for $$ from anyone.
i really hope this can be straightened out.

EDIT- I just re-read the first post in here more clearly, and it seems that he was using my feedback thread. i do not know this person, and would also like to know who he is.

trying to impersonate others is just as despicable as scamming

It's not like it is your fault anyway. :)
But I say, a very nice sentiment.
