This is the work of Virgil. He needs a JOB!!!
Hello, all --
As you know, this forum hosts a private message (PM) service that is invisible to the eyes of the forum administrators, moderators, or any participants other than the senders and the receivers.
It has recently come to my attention that this PM system has been abused by one Virgil Bromaghin to solicit clients for himself. BEWARE.
Posting as a member called "mojojake, " and using the faked email address of slblackthorne, Virgil Bromaghin recently spammed a number of forum members here via the PM system advertising the services of Dr. Corbeaux -- who happens to be himself.
In reviewing the history of public forum posts by mojojake / Virgil Bromaghin / Dr. Corbeaux, i found quite a few from July and August 2010 in which mojojake was mentioning "a rootworker" whom he knew, offering to PM people "with details" about this worker, offering testimonials of the unnamed "worker" on behalf of his unnamed "sister" who had been helped, etc. The posts were far more subtle than our usual "great spell-caster" spammer, and the use of American English was flawless. I deleted all those posts, but left innocuous posts that contributed to discussions in a general way.
In his PMs, mojojake / Virgil Bromaghin / Dr. Corbeaux disrespected the root doctors of AIRR (The Association of Indepenndent Readers and Rootworkers) and promoted the services of one "Dr. Corbeaux" (The name Dr. Corbeaux means Dr. Raven or Dr. Crow in French).
But ... guess what? Dr. E. of AIRR did some advanced internet sleuthing and found out that Virgil / mojojake / slblackthorne / Dr. Corbeaux is himself "Dr. Lazarus Corbeaux." In other words, he created a series of fake identities here in order to advertise his fake services by means of our PM system.
Misuse of our forum is an automatic banning offense, and mojojake / Virgil Bromaghin / Dr. Corbeaux has been banned under his erstwhile user name, email address, and ip location address (Cox Communications, Fort Smith, Arkansas), but he can also be found elsewhere on the internet, under a variety of other fake names, so please, take this as a warning to only work with people you know and trust. The scammer and spammer mojojake / Virgil Bromaghin / Dr. Corbeaux is not who he claims to be -- and his abuse of our PM system puts him on the same level as those spamming scammers who come here to promote fake pharamceuticals. BEWARE.
We want the Lucky Mojo Forum to be a safe, friendly, useful environment for all honest people. It is against our terms of service for any member to send an unsolicited PM to another member offering services for sale.
If at any time you are solicited for readings or rootwork by PM on this forum, please post all details here so that we can BAN the SCAMMERS.
Thank you, Dr. E., for helping to out this scam!
