[17:16] Prodigy Scientist: could you assist me
[17:35] Darling Brody: The problem is that your QHUD is not registered, and your avatar is not old enough. if you have payment details for the QHUD i can send you teh update and register you. your avatar will be old enough after a couple weeks.
[17:35] Prodigy Scientist: thanks
[17:36] Prodigy Scientist: what do u mean by payment details
[17:36] Darling Brody: note: without registration you will still not get another QHUD when your older.
[17:36] Prodigy Scientist: sure what info do u need
[17:37] Darling Brody: https://secure-web30.secondlife.com/my/account/transactions.php?lang=en <<<< go to this page and use it to search for the transaction details where you paid money to buy the QHUD. send copy and paste the details to me here in chat
[17:39] Prodigy Scientist: theres nothing there, but if u have a moment i can show u the box it came in and everything
[17:40] Prodigy Scientist: i bought it for like 3k
[17:40] Prodigy Scientist: like 5 hours ago
[17:40] Prodigy Scientist: 2800
[17:40] Prodigy Scientist: version

[17:43] Darling Brody: who did you pay the money to?
[17:43] Prodigy Scientist: you
[ At this point I checked my payment history and failed an abuse report against him ]
[17:52] Darling Brody: there is no payment from youin my transaction history.
[17:52] Prodigy Scientist: mine either
[17:53] Prodigy Scientist: but i have all the items
[17:53] Prodigy Scientist: i can prove it
[17:56] Darling Brody: the other problem is that I have not sold the July versions since last november when i upgraded the product. all deliverys come from one central server, so it's jsut not possible for me to have sent you an older one.
[17:56] Prodigy Scientist: then how did i end up with this old of a version?!
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: at least some of it works, im not gonna ask for a refund or anything
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: the radar and flight assist work
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: but nothing that requires it to be rezzed works
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: i checked the contents
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: and the stuff is all there
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: could just be the buttons
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: idk
[17:57] Prodigy Scientist: but thanks for ur help anyways
[18:01] Darling Brody: What are the permissions on the box it came in... look at them in your invetnory.
[18:01] Second Life: User not online - message will be stored and delivered later.
[18:02] Darling Brody: i know they are copy /trans because linden labs just logged you off for having a stolen copy.

For the viewers at home: I knew this guy was scamming from the moment i checked my email and saw the stolen QHUD had emailed me his details. I just let him hang himself in IMs so I could AR him and have him banned too. There was never a chance of him getting a real product out of me.
The simple fact is that I will never give a copy of a product to someone who dosnt have valid payment details and a valid registration record. And remember that the registration record includes a copy of the payment ID, so using the same details a second time will be rejected by the registration server!
People like neil over at neillife.com think they are cleaver to alter the permissions on people's products so they can steal them. They think they are fighting against Linden Labs to gain their fame.
However all they are doing is mugging someone and stealing their pay. Like a gang of petty criminals they gang up and target a single creator, destroy their income, and brag about it as if they did somthing cleaver. So you screwed over an innocent stranger. That must make you a worthwhile person to know!
NOT
UPDATE (6th Feb 2010) : Prodigy Scientist is no longer a secondlife member. He was banned for having stolen content.
Classic, but I sometimes wonder if some of these people are just some mug who bought it in a sandbox. Still handling stolen goods is a crime in itself.
ReplyDeleteGoodbye then . . . XD
Some people I have met were just given it, and others got it in a faked shop.
ReplyDeleteBUT
This guy clearly knew it was stolen and even had the cheek to try and convince me that he got it from me.
I always find it amusing that people who are not smart enough to create something like QHUD think they can trick the person who did into giving them one.
The publicity of privat chat is against the TOS of Second Life i just reported you
ReplyDeleteGood job. Now I can report you for using the Aubuse Report system for harassment.
ReplyDeleteThis post has nothing to do with you. Your tracking it down and using it in an attempt to have my SL account terminated is clear harassment under the SL TOS.
well, stupid peopole deserve this. But it seems like they just suck and think they can make quick money, any viewer who can export stuff or even manipulate permissions will be abused.. and only stupid guys can be catched. Sadly..
ReplyDeleteps: i dont like your hud since it changed into qhud but you still rule xD
The old QCv3 HUD still works.
ReplyDeleteI just wont develop it anymore because the code for it was stolen and used to make other copycap products.
