Screen shot for proof. Guys name is tommy. so be on the lookout if he tries to add you.

I am not surprised. Nowadays they start as follows: Help, I have problem with xxxx. I tried xxxx.....Can somebody help ?
After someone has replied, the topicstarter begins with: I now find something that helps my problem and you can find this at www.xxx.com.... Just have a look !

I wonder why at the end we never get a answer or reply whether the problem really has ben resolved or not. Just imagine how subtile spamming is working !

T'is a cut throat world out there..

One guy in the states who produces "waste ink tanks" comprising of a bit of tubing and a plastic container worth about 75 cents (for around $14) decided to post up on my waste ink forum about how great this product he'd bought from himself was. Dumb a$$ used his normal username that was associated with his ebay account... *mind boggles*

Thanks for the heads up about this Tommy though...

haha posted his address!

* waits for an angry mob of inkjet enthusiasts to show up outside his work*

But yeah, If anyone tries to advertise like this, it just makes people NOT want to buy their product.

Similar thing is that i refuse to donate money to people who ask for it and bug you for a donation. People know they're there and will make a donation if they wish. Stop hassling them about it.

Ahmadl: I apologize for posting your telephone numbers and identity from the copy of the email you sent me last year. I did it in ignorance. I had no idea you were a user on the printer forum. You did not mention that in your email. If you had, I would have asked you to post your question on the forum instead of using email. Private communications only benefit one person. The advantage of the forum is that it benefits many people.

Would you like me to delete your identity information in my previous post? I guess that would leave just the first line of your email. Is that what you would like me to do?

Again, I apologize for posting your private information. I had no intention of destroying your name or your country's name.
