Just got scammed by - CapeVrob

I forgot to mention that I have dealt with a few legit paypal sellers and they all delivered the FTC I paid for in about 5 minutes of me sending them payment.

Yeah i told paypal about the conflict too, but didn´t receive my money back yet.
I opened a conflict on paypal too, but i have to wait until the 7.12.13 to order buyers secure (“Käufer Schutz” in german) and finaly get my money back…
How did you get yours back so quick?Except of the trade with him i had a very good trade with zerodrama before, i paid him and got my coins asap :) Every trade should work this way!

[/quote]I think it might be because you are in Europe and I’m in the U.S., so they have different policies based on the laws of the respective countries. It sucks we have sh*t people in this world that try and pull this stuff on legitimate buyers/sellers.

Exactly it´s only 20$, thats why you allways do a test-trade before you send big money to someone onine.
He is from Malaysia… maybe he needet the money badly, you never know why these people do it.
I hope he won´t run into big problem with paypal now.Wouldn´t it be a good idea to link forum and market Accounts showing “positive trades/ neutral trades / negative trades” under the users Avatar?
This could work with some sort of “Request a Trade” System to open a trade in the forum before the actual trade takes place.
You would be able to see if a user allready had bad trades/scammed others, like CapeVrob did here. -

We need an eye for scams, there’s a lot of Newbie about. Scamming people is not a victimless crime and is not fair or legal.
Perhaps we should have a known / potential scamms thread under security?

Please use an escrow service for transactions of this kind.
-
Any news/updates from your paypal claims?
-
I´m waiting for them to call me back, I should get my money within the next 30hours :)

Oh damnnn… Who can I trust to buy the coins?

[/quote]Exchanges. People don’t seem to be wanting to sell them on here at the moment, which is understandable if you believe in the currency.
