What kind of personal info? Hopefully not banking, CC, SSN's, etc.

There isn't much in the way of supporting evidence for you, so you will need something other than this he said she said crap.

Otherwise this is a useless thread and it needs to see the inside of a trash bin.

Well he posted a thread here about looking to teach people and I responded. Im betting there were a few others that did too and probably still others thinking about it. I just wanted to warn them. Plus I'm hoping Tj will respond here. I really hope he's legit. I don't want anyone to think I'm saying "OMG TJ is a scammer!" I don't know if thats true yet. I do however know that once I gave him my personal info he disappeared. I'm hoping its just a case of mis-communication

Enough info given that he can probably still my identity. But not enough where he has access to my money or accounts.

Stupid, I know. But we talked first a bit and everything sounded so great. I was hoping that he was legit

And we are all still hoping that you'll to show up with your other account (if there is one), so you'll seem more legit and we may stop ignoring you and feeling like we're wasting our time with a prank who desperatly try to harm someone else's reputation.
Sorry if I sound harsh and paranoid, but that's too fishy...

What was the promise that you had to give all this info up?

Did a rich relative in Africa die, and you inherited money?

sxemike,

If you want to make allegations, please support them with evidence ... I'm sure if you've interacted so much as to give out your personal details, you would have a record of all the correspondence....

Just wanted to chime in and say that I received tjlight's email but chose not to respond with my info because the questionnaire was way too long. I was expecting a half dozen questions and thought he/she would take time to narrow down the field from there. Having dozens of questions from the get go was just weird. That's why I did not go into his scheme.

I'm hoping you hear from him/her and that the scheme is legit and you make money from it
