For your own sake, edit out the scammer's name. That's not allowed here...

umm Don't name names etc etc its not allowed.

Also just curious, and in no way saying the landlord was right to do what they did, but I do wonder if you were not breaking his rules by sub leasing the land. Do they allow that?

The named individual has a long and "colorful" career in SL.

Ahhh, not a name I was familiar with, I was curious because I saw the OP also had a thread advertising his Estate business, and that got me wondering if perhaps there covenant had been broken by trying to sub lease the place.

I am sure as you own 5 sims that if your name and sims were dragged through the mud publicly without knowing so you could defend yourself, you would be pretty pee'ved.

Whilst I do not doubt that someone has taken advantage of you, LL do not get involved in resident to resident disputes and that extends to their forums.

There are lots of forums out there though that you can have a field day on if you are so inclined.

I am sorry this happened to you :(

As SIM owner and tenant of course i would like to be listed at the SL Forum, i have no problem with that because, i dont need to take advantage from anyone and if someone want to complain about me ( us ) they are welcome to do it at our Website.

So your saing that you agree with Linden Lab to not alowe to Post names here ? Wunder why you would agree with them.

In my opinion all scammers should be listed, so ppl would know with who they make business befour something bad happens to them.

Maybe is time to creat a Forum outside Linde Lab !

" Linde Lab do not get involved in resident to resident disputes and that extends to their forums "

This is even stranger, for what has Linde Lab a option on the game to report Land Fraud ?

Sorry? Could you point out to me where I said I agree? And why would such a thing make you wonder even if I did?

Not to long ago I was ripped off in world, not a huge amount of money granted, but I am still smarting that I was so stupid. I try and put some of that right through world of mouth, my friends LOVE to shop, so do their friends, etc....

I get that you are angry, I would be to, but still the rules are in place here and we have to follow them if we wish to use these forums.

And just to add another point to you wishing to name and shame scammers here, we would only have ONE side of the story, it could be a huge griefing tool, of course most cases are genuine, but there will be some that are just done to be vindictive. I mean after all, in an earlier post, your tone implied something about me just from a reply to you..could you imagine the blood bath?!

SiSpt:

You are being very self-centered. The reason for the rule is because it would be very easy for someone to name and shame a scammer here when there was no scam at all. The rule is to protect innocent people who could be affected by someone posting lies, or by someone misunderstanding something and posting about it. If you were the innocent person, you would very quickly understand why that rule exists.

Unfortunately, it means that naming genuine scammers is not allowed here, but that is better than falsely naming people as scammers.

Lests see , when i open this Post was abouth something that happend to me, no MATTER THE NAMES.

Now ..

1- Why Linden Lab Dosent reply to the Report ? This is my 2nd Report in 2 years, never got a reply!
2- Why if someone dosent belive me go there and check the rental Box? Still have 1 week and 2 days left but the Rental Box is loked without reason! ohh yes i know this dosent matter, maybe i get a reply when the Rental Box is goen!
3- For what has Linden Lab at the game this option to Report Land Fraud if they never take care of this ?


I´m finish with this Post, this is taken my time and i have more to do. One more persone was scammed but this dosent matter to anyone, less to Linde Lab, bad luck for me and others that had the same problem. And btw .. this is not because the 560 L$ i lost its just because should not happen.
Thank you all for posting here.

Other than getting the money back you would never get a response from LL on the AR. Other than the stock "We got your report and are looking into it" email.


$560L? How much time have you put into this issue? Could you have made $3 American in the time you spent posting about this?

Seems to me people post these things out of frustration. AR gets you damn all feedback and not everyone is eligible for support at any level.

I'd like to see some form of arbitration or ombudsperson (PC is killing the English language) service and for LL to take some responsibility in the matter. The LL 'hands off' position regarding resident to resident business is basically a license to scam.

However, it's always worth remembering one important part of the Terms of Service:


http://secondlife.com/corporate/tos.php

From: someone
1.4 Second Life "currency" is a limited license right available for purchase or free distribution at Linden Lab's discretion, and is not redeemable for monetary value from Linden Lab.

You acknowledge that the Service presently includes a component of in-world fictional currency ("Currency" or "Linden Dollars" or "L$";), which constitutes a limited license right to use a feature of our product when, as, and if allowed by Linden Lab. Linden Lab may charge fees for the right to use Linden Dollars, or may distribute Linden Dollars without charge, in its sole discretion. Regardless of terminology used, Linden Dollars represent a limited license right governed solely under the terms of this Agreement, and are not redeemable for any sum of money or monetary value from Linden Lab at any time. You agree that Linden Lab has the absolute right to manage, regulate, control, modify and/or eliminate such Currency as it sees fit in its sole discretion, in any general or specific case, and that Linden Lab will have no liability to you based on its exercise of such right.


In short: L$ have no real world value so disputes revolving around the use of L$ have no value.

I particularly like the '... right to ... eliminate such currency as it sees fit..' part

I have been renting from this landlord on and off for the past few years. If you can't reach him you should check with the officers listed in the group. I would also check the owner of the prims that are blocking as any group member could have put those on your parcel. Sorry to hear about your problem. It took me a day to get added to the group but they did extend my rent time.

I merely asked a question based on information I had, I didn't say you were, I merely asked if you were.

To make it clear:

Linden Lab does not get involved in resident vs resident dispute. And this is a resident vs resident dispute.

Also, with ARs, you won't know if it's had an effect unless you have money return or some other visible to you means.


And I quite agree with the official forums not having allowing the naming of names. If you want to know exactly why, go down to the Archives and look for General. You'll know you've got the right forum, because it was closed, in part, because of crap like that going on.

Update ... Contact from Land owner ...
12-21-2009 00:27
Land owner has contacted me after one week ago:

Land owner: yes correct, I am going to refund all my tenant and you are next

Me: You dont need to refund anything to me, that dosent matter, but the action you made yes.

Land Owner : you passed judgement on me without hearing my side of the story. It doesn't matter. I am aware of what you wrote, You can report to linden as well. but 560 is yours. I will still return to you.

Me : Well if you had something to tell me, maybe the correct way would be sending me a notecard with what you had to say. Not sure if I´m correct.
Thank you anyway for the refund. Have a Merry Christmas.

Land owner: I just want to say things happen in real life I locked all the rental box because I do not wantto accept any more payment as I have decided to sell the sim. anyway it doesn't matter now. merry christmas

---------------------------------------------

I just dont know one thing ...

He was online several times and never contated me, just today.
But well, at least he has contacted me!

That is a LOT more than usually happens, let alone his taking time to answer your questions somewhat, and even more rare, the refund.

A lot of people have lost a lot more money when a landlord decides for whatever reason to suddenly sell their sim.
