@"dropmeinbox" wrote:... it's very consitent that it's Account_2 who added back the zero-byte file. Zero-byte issue aside, when a file keeps returning it's usually because there's a device that's unable to delete it. Look at it like this...

@"dev1375" wrote:Anyone have similar experiences - or if can advise if this is a valid behaviour - or this is a confirmed scam. This is very much a scam.
