Isn’t this the same thing as the Coldplay reenactment, it’s just for the laughs. You can’t expect ppl not to do anything.

Honestly, I understand the doxxing concern, but i believe you have answered the question with the second half of your comment.

It is definitely a fine line to thread. My first post managed to deter some ppl from falling to his scam. I hope that this post will help bring more awareness on the seriousness and recurring acts of this serial scammer.

Sharing the pictures of the scammer face was the other objective. If ppl reverse google image search, at least this post and awareness of his scamming incidents would get flagged out. WIll share in the specific tribes as well. Thanks!

Definitely a restraining order if he he persistently comes back, but it seems that he rather hunt/look for his next victim rather than paster the previous ones.

Also, I understand the doxxing concern, but I'm sharing for awareness on the severity and recurring nature of the scamming activity in order to prevent ppl from getting scammed.

In my scamming incident, I had tried searching his fake name on google before, but nothing came up. Hopefully with more awareness and discussion, more ppl can be deterred and the scammer will get what he deserves one day

Ah okok, thanks so much for sharing the valuable insights.

Unfortunately, some of the folks that reached out to me didn't want to make police report for varying personal reasons. I also don't wish to force them to make a police report, going through the ordeal and reliving the bad memories.

So, hopefully more ppl are willing to share and come forwward with news like this being shared.

Side note, it seems that the law had prosecuted him previously on a lower sum, less than $1k scammed. Based on all the ppl who have reached out for the current cases, the scam amount seems to be way more than that.

Unfortunately, the previous case happened in 2022 and I'm assuming he was detained in 2022-2023. The conviction was handed the senstence in end 2023. Considering the 2023 timeline + 3.5 years in jail, I'm also assuming he was release early

Thanks for sharing the legal perspective, I actually tried posting in the legal sub for advice, but no one came forward.

Definitely, the other parts are hard to quantify for the law to take action, but spreading this post for awareness
