Dejan Kostic [kosticdejan] or Marina Kostic [ficus]

Postby tcawe »

The account of Dejan Kostic [kosticdejan] has been deactivated.

The member had 2 NEGATIVE ratings and 5 positive ones.

I have contacted the member asking whether he'd like to fix the negative ratings or have his account deactivated. He chose the second option.

Mailing address:

Dejan Kostic

Voje Micica 81

Bratmilovce

16000 Leskovac

I think that some time ago user Marina Kostic (username Ficus) from Leskovac, Serbia has been deactivated on Colnect...

Now there is Dejan with the same postal address... who will be next? :twisted:

You are completely correct. I have verified the name Marina Kostic [ficus] had the exact same address so I'll change the title of this post now. This is the reason the mailing address is included in these posts.

Another account has been found for the same member - serbiamoney

Though we don't say publicly anyone is a cheater and thief, we can say that having many accounts with negative ratings should arise some suspicion as to the person's good intentions.

If any collectors from Serbia would like to take the opportunity to inform the local police, it may not be a bad idea.

I have suggested some time ago to contact local police in case of massive cheating, but people have responded that it would be extremely hard to evidence fact of cheating. Moreover, even if you would be able to give proof, there is almost no risk for cheaters - total sum is usually less than it would be enough for penal offence.

Deactivation of accounts, black-lists and warning of other collectors are the best way to stop cheating at the time... but efficiency is still relative low. :(

Well, declarations from dozens of people who have been cheated could certainly help build a case. If the police cannot handle it, perhaps some lawyer can file a suit on behalf of all those who have been cheated.

I do agree that the best way is to be careful and following Colnect's swapping tips. Probably the best thing for a new member is to only swap with another collector who has dozens of positive ratings and send the package first.

Happy collecting :)

Glad to learn you have received the cards. However, that member has opened several accounts and have received negative ratings in all. To change his/her status, they''d have to get a lot more positive ratings.

Happy collecting :)
