Sent $200+, never received codes. Now blocks my messages. Has a topic here he bumps and has locked so people can't warn others.

Remember in the future to always use escrow if possible when making a higher-value exchange like this. He states in his OP that he would use devthedev as an escrow if needed, not that it makes any difference to a scammer of opportunity.

It appears that user suchmoon has already left him negative feedback, having noticed that others have complained. I am going to leave feedback as well and link it to this post so others can take note.

Also, this post should be in the "Scam accusations" section. Perhaps a moderator can move it for you. Good luck.

Yes. Lesson learned.

And it looks like it has been moved. Thanks to whomever did. And thank you too!

People like you are the reason these scammers keep popping up.

Never send directly - always use escrow!

Sigh
