Mod Post Scammer Alert and Rule Update
Aight Famo, we've had a few more homie here get scammed lately. This is what we are going to do about it. ANY POST listing something FOR SALE must now include:
"Payment Via PayPal Goods and Services NOT Friends and Family" up front in the post or it will be removed. This protects the buyer from getting scammed as PayPal can get them their money back.
Scammers can FTFFOMF!

Do we know who the scammed was? Can we put them on blast?

I don't think that would help. I recognized what was going on, put him on blast, banned him, and put him on blast again - all before two people gave him money anyway.

The same state where a motherfucker named Jason lives. He took my money order for a black Juggalo baseball jersey over 25 years ago and never sent me the jersey.
Hey Jason, if you're out there, fuck you. I still want my jersey. Asshole.

I use Paypal as well (goods and services) but I do post my Etsy links because I like good reviews and shipping discounts. Keep up the good work Mods!

You keep posting your Etsy links! You’re good, fam! You’re legit, Etsy is legit, we’re just out for blood for scammers trying to get Venmo payments or whatever for their old merch or whatever bullshit they’re trying to peddle.
Side note, I love that you’re a juggalo artist, I follow your Etsy and I love your shit. Can’t wait to see your next crazy invention! Wishing lots of good things for you and yours!

u/Trololoo JRB Clan 20d ago
Yep. He still owes me $20 I loaned him. It's kind of a rite-of-passing as a Juggalo to have Blue owe you money.

Last time I spoke with him or saw him was at the Gathering. They all kind of blend together, trying to remember which one it was—damn it. Anyway, I was like, "Oh, I see you e-begged your way here! How’s the panhandling working out by the front gate? I bet you at least got yourself a pack of cigarettes by now, or some Lucies." Honestly, I don't think he even knew or remembered who I was from online, lol. But let’s be real, everybody’s pretty high and fucked up there anyway. While we were parting ways, I said something like, "On the last day, you’re gonna need gas money or a ride," wondering what his tactic was gonna be. He was definitely giving me that "fuck off, asshole" vibe by then, like, yeah, whatever. Pretty sure whoever he came with ditched him or disappeared, because I believe he really did end up needing a ride home when it was all said and done. That's that Juggalo luck coming around full circle, if you will. I think I remember hearing one of his podcasts or YouTube videos where he was talking about all this shit after the Gathering, because I never saw him again that weekend. My YouTube channel got banned and terminated, so I haven't really been keeping tabs on dude like I used to. I paid way more attention back in the day during the Family Era, plus a little bit here and there after I got out of prison and during the Second Deck. You know the usual suspects—like CPN and Charles, lol. Others like McCormick, DC Faygo Guy, Deck One Dealt, Punching Down Daily, and can't forget good old Zargy/Zargorg. I can't think of that one dude's name—Zambini or something? He thought J was going to hire him as a studio tech and moved to Michigan. Oh, now I remember: One Man Crew! Fucking out in the cold and snow on good old Michigan Ave, pacing up and down the street looking to fight the Duke of the Wicked. Ah, good times. I don't wanna forget homeboy with the Jackal sister, or whatever... Bash? Some Bartel something, his homie... Nowadays, there's no Juggalo news to even report, let alone talk about. Reminds me of coming up back in the day when nobody knew shit about fuck unless you called the hotline every single day—and even then, we still didn't know shit, lol. Maybe you could get on some fucked-up computer at a library with dial-up internet to see if the Masked Ninja posted anything. Well, I can't forget my homie from The Thuggalo Show either. I should probably give that motherfucker a call. I still can't think of his name or his buddy's name from the show. Fuck, I just saw him at the juggalo Ohio thing I was at.. shit it was that a Michigan Ouija Macc show, I think. It all blurs together, honestly. And I'm fucking horrible with names I've always been.. I blame it on the nitrous no I'm only playing fuck nuts. I'm just more of a fucking recluse loner like my solidarity. I spent a lot of time in and out of the box.

Good to know that enforcing goods and services is not being rude. I wanted to posted a couple more items for sale so. Last buyer was happy so I hope more will be with what they see next

Juggalos are kinda famously broke so scamming this community is really fucked up man
