Just curious, in twitter, did he actually say "here's a suit that I built myself" or did he say "here's my suit" because the two are very different. If the suit in the pic is indeed the suit he commissioned MCL for, then there's really not much of a sin in saying "here's my suit" as it is indeed a suit of his. Well, once he pays the balance that is.
If I'm being too optimistic, please forgive me, but it seems there might be some room here for interpretation. He may just be a really eager cosplayer who is excited to show off something that is coming his way soon.
I know *I* would be if I had a suit that great looking in transit
Awesome work, by the way, MCL34N.

It is fairly ambiguous, but his tweet to Marc Webb is the key comment-
"@MarcW - Hey there, I have been working on the following Spidey costume would love yo know your thoughts http://pic.twitter.com/RlrAdVtB"
And he also has been posting pictures on his facebook, and specifically setting the security so that I can't see them, and claiming he made it.

Well, if you never send the suit, he will never be able to keep the lie alive. He will forever have to claim the few photos he has and will never be able to show other photos or wear it in public. Wish him good luck making one as awesome as your work and cut ties
Here are all of his tweets...seems pretty unambiguous to me:
He consistently refers to it as "my suit" and asks for approval on its status, he's used El Fett's image as his avatar, says "I have been working on the following Spidey costume," AND is telling people he can make them a Spidey suit, using MCL34N's photos as proof.
It doesn't get much more cut and dry than that, the guy is a creep and deserves to be shut down before he can scam anyone out of a single cent...or take any more credit away from MCL34N's incredible piece.
EDIT: It's also worth noting that it seems he used to go under the username "Quentin_Macleod." So add that to his list of aliases.

As I mentioned over on the build thread, the photos are posted via PhotoBucket...
PhotoBucket's posted Terms of Use restrict people from posting "anything that you didn't create", "contains or promotes something you know is false or misleading" and "includes a photograph or video of another person that you have posted without that person's consent."
I'd reach out to PhotoBucket and ask them to pull the images. That will also kill his links (and the link to any of the re-tweets that have been sent).
It will likely have to be MCL34N that send that note as you would need to be the 'content owner' for the complaint.
Good luck... Hope this helps!

This is something that is unspeakable!!! If there's something I hate, it's people like this!
Really think you should check out what 'indiefilmgeek' posted. Great work finding the copyright infringement rules on both Photobucket and Twitter dude!
But yeah I'll see if I can get in on this Hashtag business too since I hate people stealing others work or claiming it is there own. (Trust me, I know the feeling) I don't even use Twitter much but in this case, I'll make an exception. This guy won't last for long!

Have you reported his ID to the mods on this board?

Where theres smoke there's fire, we as intelligent human beings know EXACTLY what he's up too. I'm just glad someone was there to catch him, hopefully before he got some poor guys money as he was "selling" suits apparently. Nice to know the RPF'rs take care of their own.

Finally heard back from Ichigo. He claims that he didn't do any of the things he is accused for. He says he doesn't even have a twitter because it's stupid. One problem with this though, if you look at his Facebook (I'm sure its long gone by now) He has a status bragging about how Marc Webb Tweeted him. He really is probably one of the least intelligent scammers I've ever encountered

Here we have it folks! Definitive proof this guys ******-Baggery. This is a screen cap from Grahams Facebook where he admits he contacted Marc Webb. It isnt the same post I was talking about (It was a blatant status update braggin that Marc Webb Tweeted him back) probably because he deleted that one. But my friend found another piece of hard proof-
Bye Graham! Wish I could say I will miss ya!
