BF member Antigames...Bad..Scammer!

I'll post this again as his emails:
He goes by the name of "John Bell"
His email address: antigames506@gmail.com
Email of supposed trader(also John Bell from what we know): jc_bm_x@hotmail.com

In his original trade thread he mentioned he had:
All black Para2
Emerson - I think a mini CQC-15? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Emerson A-100
Black/satin Military

Which knives did he promise you? He had told me he would give me all four for my ZT 0560. Then he said he wouldn't ship first, so I told him no. I'm glad I did.
Allahbread and Chester got him to crack and promise them their things, so maybe they can help you?

Sorry about everyone's troubles with this guy.
 
John,

I realize you promised Allahbread and Chester you would send them their things back, which I hope you do, it's the right thing to do.

I am writing you about another member Kru03, you ripped him off of a ZT 0550, I am writing to tell you that we know you did rip him off and that it would be the right thing to send it back to him. It's not right to steal from people and I have no idea why you would rip so many people off. It's just wrong. I am asking you to please send him his knife back. If not, there are other ways to try and get it back. I'm sure you'd rather just deal with Kru03 and us at Blade Forums rather than other people.

Please do the right thing.

Thanks,
Jessie

That's the message I sent him, to both emails.
 
It failed to go to the first email address, like Chester and Allahbread had mentioned, but it did go to the second email.

Not a problem, glad to help in any way possible.
 
Let me tell you, this guy is an artist at the scam. I don't think I'll ever see that knife again, but it's worth a shot.
 
Can anybody here tell me who I need to contact or what I need to do to possibly get my knife back? I realize that it may be gone for good, but I'd like to try and get it back.

I've done hundreds of sales, trades and purchases on BF and never had a bad outcome. I knew this deal was too good to be true and knew how to avoid this (no need to tell me what I should have done differently). Ultimately, it's not too high price to pay to learn an important lesson, but it's a shame none-the-less.

You should have told me he got you to, let me email him for ya!
 
Yeah, my name is Erik. I've exchanged some e-mails w/ him and he says he is going to ship it back and will send me a tracking number. I'll believe it when I see it. Thanks for all your work guys. It will be a miracle if I see that knife again.
 
I got it.

Subject: RE: John...

I thought the zt0550 was Chester's. I completely forgot it was his. I am sending it to him along with everybody elses on Monday. I feel I need to apologize to you to. I am so sorry for being like this. I don't know why I did this. I am so sorry for lying to you and others.
 
The ZT 0550 scale is Chester's.
The Smallfly Blade is Allahbread's.
And the ZT 0550 is Kru03's.

I'm not angry, I'm just happy you're doing the right thing.
Thank you for doing the right thing.
I will tell Kru03 that you plan to send it back to him.

I will have him email you at this email with his address.
Once you do the right thing I'm sure you'll feel better and it will be easier to get a better reputation.

Thanks,
Jessie

Erik, Email him at this email address: jc_bm_x@hotmail.com
 
Thanks Jessie,
I've exchanged a few e-mails w/ him. I just can't tell whether to believe him or not given how sincere he was while communicating the trade. I've demanded a tracking number for the shipment back to me. That should tell me whether it's for real, although I won't truly be a believer 'til the knife is back in my hands.
 
Glad I started this thread! Thanks Jessie and Allah bread as well as others for all the help.. Us BF are like family here I love it
 
I'm guessing the 0550 in the picture is Eriks knife with my scale... I was gonna say how could someone poor afford a ZT in the 1st place..
 
Definitely glad you started this. I was just getting on to start one myself and was ready to chalk it up to my first loss on BF. Awesome people here.
 
Yeah thanks Jessie, if you never gave us that 2nd email we would have never seen are stuff again! Thanks alot.

Oh Chester the post about his address, he wants us to remove because he's afraid someone is going to go beat his ass.

And thanks for starting this thread man!
