Beware of Dark Wallet Scammer

Someone wrote this on the bitcoin subreddit felt like I should repost it here since we all use something to fog our coins so I assume at least some of you use dark wallet.

"So I didn't know where to post this because the dark wallet subreddit is pretty much dead. Well there is a guy who acts as a dev in the Dark Wallet trollbox chat. He is not a dev. He says how he's gonna put obelisk online blah blah blah. Then he will private message you and probably start it with "Greetings!" First off no one really private messages and the fact he said the same beginning to multiple people is a sign, he has a process. I diverge, well he asks for bitcoin to test mixing and gives you an address. You send it to him and he delays giving you your coins back saying he's waiting on other devs and other bs. Essentially you lost your coins. So this is just a warning because I was talking to someone who lost 4.5 btc that they were saving for months. Let's not give this guy anymore btc."

who in their right mind would send 4.5 btc to some random so they could test a mixing service? even if the dude wasn't a scammer, there's a chance the mixer could have a bug in it and that the coins would be lost forever in an unusable address. just seems like a super n00b move to me.
