I've heard Matthew Bonder on the phone and could verify in a few seconds that you aren't him. Why not stop posting here and call me right now and prove it? As MGS says, I'm really not hard to talk to...

I will call you tonight like I said. Reason: Im so mad right now I will end up telling you off. Even ebay or paypal didn't give me so much trouble about proving who I am.

Wrong. You are plain wrong. Want me to forward the email from ebay request it to lift my limits?

Nope. No reason. I actually didn't come in here to bash you (assuming youre not Matt Bonder) I must have been mistaken.

Thank you. And no, im not Bonder. Im simply a retired person trying to have an income. Now all that is going to be ruined by people that are after someone else! What is this world coming to...

RiTides wrote:Also, this pattern of discrepancies, excuses, and inconclusive evidence "proving" things- we've seen it before. To recap:

Discrepancies:
-You're retired, but you said you were going to work, which turned out to be charity work for a church, then you ended up not going
-Your son was said to be 24 and 13

Excuses:
-Your web cam reflects off your ID so you can't take a picture of it
-You don't want to be photographed because you're a 57 year old woman
-You can't call me because your son has the phone

Inconclusive evidence:
-You took the time to take web cam shots of invoices, but only a pile of them and won't zoom in on one to show the info
-There does seem to be a Susan linked to the ebay and paypal account, but you refuse to do anything to prove that you are that person

This is too much to believe, and fits EXACTLY into the pattern that Matt Bonder uses when cornered.

Quoting this because I'd edited in some additional things that you didn't address.

It is truly a smoking gun. The reason being, there are so many ways you could prove that you're Susan, and you won't do it. Yet you type here over and over declaring your innocence. You take web cam pics of things, but won't take them of the things that could prove your innocence. Your license is too reflective to show up in a picture. Your son has the phone. Remember what I said? If you came up with excuses and didn't follow through, my suspicions would increase.

They're now at pretty much 100% that you're not who you say you are. There almost certainly is a Susan involved in the ebay/paypal account (registered to their name/address) but that isn't you. If it was, you would have done what could have so easily proved you to be that person, which you obviously have the capability to do (i.e., take a web cam pic of any of the things I listed previously).

It's as smoking of a gun as there ever was one, and all provided by your own statements in this thread. Otherwise, it would have been hard to know one way or the other... you've provided the evidence of guilt yourself.

And you are so wrong from the truth its not even funny.

Im willing to call you tonight when I can, I'm willing to send you a picture of my DL that matchs all the info youve gotten and yet thats not good enough.

Fine, so be it.

Now I want to see how my store is connected to Mr Bonder or his site.

Show me. Show me the proof.

The name (Susan) and address attached to the ebay accounts and ebay store are extremely likely to be legitimate. I'm sure you've made sure not to have the name "Matt Bonder" connected to it in any way at all.

What's not legitimate is you, because you go to all this trouble, yet refuse to call me or take a picture of yourself or your ID or the invoice showing the information. You need until tonight, presumably, because that's when Susan will be available.

You've provided the proof of all this yourself by your statements in this thread. The excuses have gotten so lame it's insane. You don't have a phone? You don't want to be photographed? You still haven't addressed why you couldn't simply zoom in on a single invoice. What about that one?

Yet you continue to post and cause drama, yet not do any of those simple things to prove your innocence, despite taking the trouble to take and email me pictures already. What possible benefit could it be for you not to do one of the above? None at all... the only explanation is that you can't do it right now, because Susan isn't around until tonight.

Completely not my business, but I find it somewhat interesting how "sequential" every totally-not-Matt has been in this thread.

I mean, we haven't seen Lucky in a bit and now "Susan," using a masculine user name none the less, jumps all over the place with nonsensical statements. Odd, that.

Is there no phone box near you? I'm sure Tides could paypal you the 0.20c to replay you what it would cost to give him a 2 minute phone call

Also, this thread is just crazy...

The first thing I bought from Susan was in the beginning of October. So I don't think she is just popping up now for the first time.

Infact, I bought from them before they joined Dakka, it seems.

Wow. I cant see how you even have the intelligence to be a Moderator here.

Ive emailed you 6 things already, posted some here as well. webcams do NOT zoom in. I cant zoom in on anything.

Im 57, I sell online as I dont feel good about my looks. I wont take a webcam picture with the ID because you wont be able to even READ the ID.

Again I offer to call when I can, I offer to send you a clear picture when I can and both arent good enough. Funny since our first PMs had me only needing to fax you my ID tomorrow when you yourself said to. Now its everything must be right this second.

What a laugh.

So who am I then? I'm Mr Bonder? The same one from this thread? If so why do I have perfect feedback on all my accounts? Why have several dakka people bought items from me with no problems at all? Its all a scam?

Or is it like you say what Mr Bonder does. I'm making good sales just to rip people off? On eBay? HA.

So calling you then and sending the DL id is a waste of time correct? Ive already wasted my entire morning with this garbage.

I still want to see the proof im linked to Mr Bonder OR his site. Show me.

Phone boxes here are called pay phones and they are only in bad areas and can not receive calls. Nor will I go and spend my own money to call someone who has already called me a liar.

Clearly you didnt read the above post. Lord Serpius was my sons ebay user name. I simply used it and when he mentioned this site being able to post ebay auctions, I just used the same name to make it easier to find me on ebay. I later changed it as yes, its a guys user name and I don't like it.

But really, now your saying im Mr Bonder just like all the writers on his site? again HA

It's up to you. At this point, I think it's pretty clear that the person posting here isn't Susan. I can't imagine you're able to fool ebay/paypal into giving you an account with a fake name/address, so I assume you do have access to said Susan.

The only things you've sent me, you also posted in this thread, and they are thoroughly inconclusive.

What is conclusive is that now I'm supposed to believe that you are posting over and over here, yet somehow unable to take a picture of the invoice, your ID, or to get to a phone. That's totally unbelievable and quite condemning.

This knowledge doesn't do all that much for us- I figured you (Matt) would be trying to sell things on ebay under alternate accounts. I hope that Susan isn't so gullible as to let you scam under her name, so those accounts very well may be safe to deal with.

Nevertheless, I will likely be adding them to the OP as likely accounts for Matthew Bonder, so that people are warned. That is the whole point of this thread- warning people that you were using Miniature Wargame Conversions as a front in communications with me, pretending to be "Jeff" and "Damien", and now pretending to be Susan (who seems to be a real, legitimate person, unlike the others) in your communication on here and to sell things through ebay.

Once again, I just hope that she isn't so gullible as to let you scam under her name/account.

Those are the conclusions I see from the evidence here... people can feel free to draw whichever ones they like, but I think it's pretty clear. I'm glad this was shown on a public forum, though, rather than my previous communications which were private and thus down to my word against yours, Matthew.

It's not this world. It's this community. It has been burned hard by Matt Bonder. Not just this community but people all across the 40k community. It is a shame that your name is being smeared, but I can't help wonder why a screen shot with your license and yourself is way out of line. I sell a ton on ebay, and I guarantee I would do whatever necessary to be able to sell safely and securely. Even if it meant humoring some overzealous (myself included) community members.

I can understand why the community isn't satisfied with the proof you provided. Those invoices may mean you are not recasting (personally I don't think you are recasting), but it is odd that none of them show a name on them. It seems like your true identity is the real matter at stake here, not if you are recasting. Matt Bonder has followed very similar patterns to the one you are now following. Vague "proof" and delays. Personally I want to see you clear this up. I respect people using eBay as a means for extra money. I think it is a shame that one person can cause so much fear across a community.

Believe it or not Ritides is a good dude. He has taken it upon himself to make sure that this community is safe and secure (at least as much as one can be online). If mad at anyone, it should be Matt Bonder. This is his hand that has made a thread like this absolutely necessary. I am very hesitant to do business with anyone in your area because of one rotten egg. It is unfortunate that you are now tied up in all of this, but it is what it is.

On a side note. Has anyone considered contacting any local (Dallas/FW area) newspapers? The press loves stories like this. They also have the means to thoroughly investigate claims and to bring scammers into the spotlight. While it may not be front page material it could lead to an investigative report. Heavens knows the media has spent a ton more money investigating things that are far less appealing than exposing a con man. Susan, you yourself may want to consider this. Look at the pain Matt Bonder has indirectly caused you. If not for him and his dealings you would have went on selling via eBay with no questions ever asked.

I agree. I brought up recasting to see what the reaction was, but I have no reason to believe that Matthew is doing so under this account.

That he is posting here, and not Susan, I think is a pretty clear conclusion from what has transpired in this thread, though. Of course that's my opinion, but I think the evidence supports it quite strongly. We can only go off of what is here, and from what we have seen, everything points towards Lord.Serpius not being forthcoming, putting forth really lame and unbelievable excuses, and refusing to provide proof when they clearly have the means to do so, and took the trouble to provide pictures of inconclusive things.

If you really were Susan, and wanted to clear your name, it'd be easy. But as it is, based on my communications with you via email as "Jeff" and "Damien", I am quite convinced that you are, in fact, Matthew Bonder.

Note: I don't think so of any of the other contributors on the website, or those who have posted in this thread. Just Lord.Serpius... based on the last several pages of evidence.

All you are doing is making sure people here that hate Mr Bonder attack my store. A store that has NOTHING to do with him or his site.

What confuses me is you have no proof that my store is linked to him or his site. Ive asked for said proof 4 times now and each time the question is ignored.

How is my store linked to Mr Bonder? Tell me. Because someone posted a link? You mean how like a few pages back a guy linked to a website that wasn't even Mr Bonders and said it was his site? Its the exact same thing.

I cant stop you from doing whatever you want but I will make this clear. You will hurt my store because people here are generally childish and will simply buy items from me and leave me bad ratings. When if you look at ALL of my ratings now, they are darn near perfect!

So if you want to go ahead and post that crap, there is no need to call you or send you anything else. If you want to wait until tomorrow like we discussed via PM (that I can post here) that will work with me. But to basically tell me how to run my life, is to much. I'm pretty sure i'm older then you and in no mood to take orders from someone that has called me a liar at every chance when they don't even know me and I was nothing but polite and helpful.

All you have to do is call me to clear it up. Why not do so?

That's right, your son has the phone...

All you have to do is take a picture of your ID to clear it up. Why not do so?

It's too reflective to show up...

All you have to do is take a picture of yourself to clear it up. Why not do so?

You're ashamed of your appearance as a 57-year old woman...

Not to mention, your supposedly starting selling on ebay because "you" were getting out of the hobby, but now it's to support your son's hobby. The story keeps changing, the proof is not provided despite having the means to do so... and the reason is pretty darn clear.

Thank you for explaining it in detail to me.

RiTides and I agreed in our first PMs this morning id fax him a copy at his work. He has since changed his demands at every new PM and post here. Im more then willing to provide a good quality picture of me and my DL as well as calling him as soon as I can. He refuses after changing the agreement we made not even 2 hours ago.

As for contacting the paper, someone, please, that's a great idea and should be done. Before I didn't have much interest in this thread other then that he was in Dallas. Now, since my name is now in the mud over what, I don't know, i'm pretty p'd off.

I ask again, what proof is there that i'm linked to Bonder or his site. Im serious, I looked at the link that guy provided and it has NOTHING to do with my store. What did he come across it on ebay and say "hey look its Dallas, I better tell everyone its Bonder" because that's what it seems like.

RiTides, why not check Serpius' IP and cross reference it with RedStarOne(and other known Bonder accounts).

From what I understand of Bonder, I'm not sure he's wary or adept enough to change his IP address every time he creates a puppet or new account.

You've spent way too much time on this, IMO, and there are other ways to check your suspicions as a mod.

The first post made by me saying getting out of the hobby was wrote with my sons help. I was very new to all this and he helped me a lot.

Why did you tell me to fax it tomorrow and then change your mind? Explain that to me? And explain how my store is linked to Bonder or his site!

Please do check it. That will solve it fast as can be.

The proof is provided by yourself in this thread.

I posted the PM where you said you'd take a web cam pic of your ID. I also offered for you to take a pic of yourself. I also offered for you to call me.

The fact that you need until tonight to do any of this indicates that you are not Susan, that you need to wait for Susan to show up, and that you're stalling for time. It'd be so easy to prove yourself innocent- but you won't do it.

This isn't a court of law. I'm extrapolating. There is no proof linking Matthew Bonder to the account. The proof is only your posts here, which are pretty darn convoluted, contradictory, and self-condemning.

He is wary and adept enough, unfortunately...

I'll agree I've spent too much time on this, but it's nothing compared to the amount of time I spent via email although it did result in two boxes being sent to Alpharius, and in that sense was worth it. This thread has really been a pain, and seemingly not worth it... but I wanted to get the word out... and him exposing himself publicly helps show what I was trying to convey (that he is continuing his activities under other covers).

I found in email the only way to pin him down was to push on details of his storyline until he provided other, contradictory details. He's done that here and you're right, the point's made and I'm through posting about it... will edit the OP to add the warning sometime this week and leave it at that.

Dont sit there and say that. I have YOUR PM stating to fax it tomorrow as thats when your at work. Shall I post it? You just walked right into a lie..

If you wanted to fax me your Driver's License, I would be willing to give you a fax number to send it to. It would have to be at my work during the week, as I don't have a personal fax.

I do not want to jump to any conclusions and listed out my thoughts in the thread, along with this PM. Please feel free to respond there...

Let me know if you want the fax number and I'll give it to you.

Sincerely,
RiTides

Also, from you on the 3rd post in this thread:

If we could keep this thread dealing strictly with the website itself, I would appreciate it. The hundreds of emails I exchanged and 11 voicemails I received were primarily from "Damien", but also some contact was made by "Jeff" initially. Neither is listed on the webpage, or corresponds to any of their contributors. Both said they just work behind the scenes.

And from you as well:

however, please keep in mind that the normal rules of this site apply, and avoid speculation or insults that would violate Rule #1. Thanks...

Oh wow, speculation. Since you have no proof as there is none, that im linked to Bonder or his site, you are breaking 2 rules you yourself stated in the start of this thread. Great job moderating.

If you read down a few posts, it has become about you using the website as a cover for your activities... and now you're using these ebay accounts, as well.

I'm not going to go back and forth further, I think the evidence is out there for all to see now... not everyone may agree with my conclusions, but I'm basing them on our prior communications which are pretty much carbon copies of what we're having here, and I have no desire to have it further (it's an exercise in futility as the excuses pile up on each other, and eventually cycle back around to the beginning, as we have here).

So you're too embarrassed to show your picture... but you'll show your picture... as long as it can be done later...

Your son has the mobile phone...

Seriously, dig more... eventually you'll reach Oz and then HBMC can lend you his phone...

It is also interesting to note that Matt Bonder is following this thread as seen by his double-quick response to something alarmingrick posted.

Curious that I haven't gotten any emails in months, even though Matt still owes me quite a bit...

Well, not that curious, obviously, but I really would like the Baneblade, 2 Vindicator tanks, 5 Rhino tanks and the set of Space Hulk Terminators back that he still owes me, and has for getting on a few years now...

Can none of you read?

My webcam cant take clear pictures. RiTides wants a picture of me with my DL that has the same name and face as me on it. I can not do that with a crappy webcam that couldn't even focus on letters on anything except the computer screen.

And for you RiTides to now say my ebay accounts are Matts.. how dare you. You have no proof. no evidence no nothing. BECAUSE IM NOT HIM.

I actually received a hate mail from Matt a few days ago when I posted a comment about him in this thread. It was within 2 minutes of the posting. I have since blocked his email, and will continue to block all his other email addresses.

And I'm very sorry that happened to you.

But

It has zero to do with me.

It will be fascinating if RiTides gets a phonecall from Susan. Because my impression is that we are not talking to Susan, and it has yet to be determined if Susan is aware of the use of their identity.

I'm curious what will happen if sufficient evidence is provided to the contrary of RiTides findings.

Is it not possible to contact ebay and papal with this "susans" details and explain your concerns that the accounts are being run on another parties behalf, which is a breach of their terms (with possible money laundering/tax evasion implications so IRS could be interested too) and have them suspend the accounts and let them carry out their own investigations. I'm sure "susan" would be more than happy to help them with their inquiries.

I think at this point just seeing via a webcam shot that he's dealing with a woman, driving license or not would help Ritides suspicions.

The sad truth is, it's too easy to say this is the truth on the Net, but a natural doubt has to remain due to the fact a person can type anything they want. Proof being requested is a surprise, even embarrasing to a degree.

However sometimes it is an neccesary evil, although not here on Dakka, due to having a networked PC, myself and Aura (my wife) have had to provide proof that we are seperate people, as we come up as the same IP on forums and it looks like a single user having multiple accounts. It's typically a big no no, but we are happy to clear it up.

I have no idea who you are by the way, but you do sadly seem to have the misfortune of typing in a very similar way to Redstarone, which obviously is concering someone like Ritides even more.

To be fair, I'm a 28 year old woman who hates her appearance and voice. Its a common thing.

Just two quick pieces of input:

- Lord.Serpius does appear to have much better grammar and manners than Matt usually would/does.

- I've never 'known' (on Dakka) RiTides to be anything but a nice guy, so his intentions here at least are honest.
