if he is korean/chinese/japanese/blue penguin AND friends with Kai budde, it must be true.further it tells us that this scammer is kinda old. most people who started playing within the last 5 years dont know who kai is.

even better, *edit...Mike Chen...edit* is at it again. I knew it was about that time. Here is the email I got today...Hey, I apologize if I was not nice to you on the phone! Forms of payment: I will gladly accept PP - Paypal; (dfgcheng@yahoo.com); Alpha booster box: http://www.trollandtoad.com/p116159.html ($25,000 is their retail price) It says on their website that it's worth $24,999 but I can do $18,000 for you for my last brand new Alpha booster box (see attachments for pictures!); Beta booster box: and I can do $8,000 for the Beta booster box with 36 factory sealed packs for you as well -- http://www.trollandtoad.com/p80110.html ($16,000 is their retail price); Unlimited booster box: and finally I can do for you $4,000 for the Unlimited booster box also; http://www.trollandtoad.com/p96904.html ($7,500 is their retail price); Or I can combine all three booster boxes for you (Alpha, Beta, Unlimited) for just $26,000 (It's like getting a free Unlimited booster box worth $4,000 to me!) and you are only paying for just the Alpha and the Beta booster box for a grand total of $26,000 and getting the third box, the Unlimited booster box, for free. I hope this sounds good, and you will take this deal.
Sorry but these asking prices are firm. Non-negotiable. Thanks. You can PP me right now at dfgcheng@yahoo.com any amount you want, or you may just email me back with a counteroffer, so that we can get these booster boxes moving and sold this week. I don't really need the money, but because I am moving to New York, I just want to get them sold. (I recently bought a house there in New York for $1.2 million dollars).
Thanks! 850.273.0103 Jen Cheng

It's not Daniel Chang, it's Mike Chen, he tried to steal Daniel's identity.

Forgot to mention, it's loaded with pictures of an opened booster box, lol. So even if it were legit, the boosters would have obviously been searched.

I've received 3 more today... 7 in total lol. I want to block him but there's some twisted part of me that's enthralled to see how many times he's going to spam me, lol. So instead, I used a filter to get him out of my inbox, and put his stuff in their own, precious little folder.
