Wouldn't this be easily settled with a couple phone calls, or posting of a picture of today dated newspapers from each poster , or some other such silliness? It may be in the interest of the accused to do something silly like that.
We've checked over at DP (i moderate there), and have not found sufficient proof that the two posters turbokon and COUNT SMRIFNACK are the same person over there. That doesn't rule it out of course, but all factors in, it doesn't seem likely to me. Lamest scam ever if it's a 'scam'.
Reputations are hard to build up, and very VERY easy to damage, especially with online fora where every voice has the same weight.
Whatever.
