Instagram user pinkycandyloves is a scammer that is lying and saying she's a forum member, but will block buyers when they ask for her forum username.

This person is not a scammer but she is a time-waster. On 6 December 2014, she E-Mailed me, asking me the price for SM TOWN Live World Tour III In Seoul Taeyeon's file set. I replied her and told her that I would send her photos of the file set when we have confirmed the deal (Which is when she agreed to the price). So she agreed to USD$22 shipped and I sent her photos of the file set, and she said that the file set is what she was looking for. And then she told me that she would pay me "later" that day, but the payment never came. After that, she told me that she would most probably pay "later on the week", so fine, I trusted her and waited. I told her to send me the money by Thursday because I had to send out other buyers' mails too, but on Wednesday (10 December 2014), I messaged her with a "Hello??" and she didn't reply me until the next day (11 December 2014), in which she replied that she had to drag the payment till "next week". Okay, fine, I waited for her again. This afternoon (20 December 2014), I E-Mailed her again, asking her if she was ready to pay but she didn't reply me. If she is no longer interested, why can't she just tell me instead of wasting my time and pulling my hopes high? All in all, this sarangsone@yahoo.com is a time-waster.

lollipop sarangsone is pretty notorious for things like that. I had a similar experience when selling to him/her. I'm sorry you had to deal with that!

Sorry to hear that you had to deal with her too. >< Now I remember seeing on Tumblr about posts saying that SarangSone is bad and stuff. Should have remembered all these things. T__T

lollipop - I'll add her on here under the time wasters. She's also affiliated with scammer temporarykorean. She wanted to pay for and trade for a card of mine and it's been 2 weeks and I haven't received her part yet. I haven't sent mine out obviously. She's asked to buy things from me but I don't hold merchandise for buyers longer than 24 hours so.... Still it's annoying.

damnnnn i was thinking of buying from that kimtaehyung person about a month ago, & I did find it weird when she/he commented "preorder means you need to pay first then i will go find the album and ship it to you" on the KNOT with Sunggyu pb She doesn't even have the album nor the supplier & yet she wants to open preorders.. OTL

If you are a BTS collector please don’t buy from any new Instagram or Tumblr accounts. There are a ton of scammers everywhere and once they get caught, they just make a new account. BTS collecting is very dangerous right now on those two sites so please be careful guys! Name: Bella Marselev (probably fake) Tumblr: kpophugu YouTube: Bella Marselev Email: kpophugu@gmail.com Paypal: abzilvira@gmail.com Location: Claims Finland She (like kimtaehyung951230) is selling Polaroids to multiple people. She sold a Polaroid to a Twitter user who paid 7 hours ago. However, I feigned interest and contacted her about an hour ago asking if it was still available and she said that it was (and even gave me her PayPal). I know four different people who asked her about it and contacted her for more photoproof. She never responds after you ask her for more photoproof. Twitter conversation proving that she is a scammerI have my email screenshots in this conversation.

If a person is in the list (former forum members), do you accept them again when they apply to join the forum again?

andraeyaxi - Generally, no. Because we don't like banning people, so they usually do something bad (i.e., scam someone) for us to ban them. And if they scam, there's no way we'd re-accept them. Edit: if they slip through the registration and end up rejoining, we immediately ban them again without any warning to them. All mods have zero tolerance for people that scam others out of their cards or hard-earned money. Is there an individual wanting to rejoin the forum that was previously banned? I know one on the list keeps contacting me to say they aren't a scammer but never provides any proof to back that up (that's in English anyways--I don't accept proof in a language I can't understand).

I feel so bad for doing this, but harin is a time waster. On the 24th november, she asked if I could hold my Donghyuk win dvd card for her till 15th January, because she had just spent her money on a dvd. Today, 2 weeks before she was supposed to buy, she tells me that she can't because she got the card in her dvd. I totally get why she won't buy it, but it really sucks because I had put the card on hold for her, for over a month

Anyone dealt with Nicky1388 (User in this forum) before? She messaged me through this forum last week and told me that she was interested in my SM TOWN Passport stickers, and would like me to reserve for her till this Wednesday (Which was yesterday).
I messaged her on Tuesday and Wednesday to remind her, but she didn't reply me despite her being online for quite a few times. Is she a trustable buyer? ><

lollipop nicky1388 is completely trustworthy. Just drop her another message and I'm sure she'll reply. Bear in mind that it is the holidays still and people are replying slower due to this so just hold out a little longer.
