Of all the people to be on the lookout for, this one is definitely one to be aware of. This one is a pure troll. Several individuals have been ripped of monies totalling several thousand dollars. He baits you in through incredible pricing and then provides you with no item in return. Lamdam is confirmed to be on other forums as well including HowardForums. Supposedly posts on newsgroups as well. Other known aliases are JimmyD, McHammer, KennyM, IntensedAngel, and Infinity111. It seems the individual is now involved in spreading counterfeit money now as well. Additional information can be found at the Hofo fraud forums.

**10/20/2004 Update** Electroguy (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/member.php?userid=15192) or Kevin Lee
His real name seems to be Kevin Lee. He sold a Zellers Gift Card to another forum user after they went to the store to confirm the amount. Days later when the buyer attempted to use the card there was no value remaining on it. Speaking with customer service, the buyer found that the card had been purchased on a stolen credit card. Electroguy claimed it was not his fault but has not replied to PMs and failed to meet with the buyer to work it out as he suggested he would be willing to.
