Scammer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=459735


This guy has done trades with me before and has used paypal. First couple times he went first and i sent after np.
The first time i sent. he said his paypal was limited and provided a screenshot. He owes me 170$ in paypal for the btc i've already sent him.

Scrambling, he went to get a paypal loan from an old friend for some reason and sent me 490 saying its a loan and should give him back the remaining. The amount was for 490 from an UNVERIFIED USER.
Not sure what to do now. Will provide screen shot and transaction id screen shots update when i get home from work.


My head is telling me hes gonna take more of my btc and then chargeback everything. hes saying hes being charged interest from this "old friend" for the paypal loan.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Refund that payment. Do NOT send any funds from your paypal account, make sure you just REFUND the full amount. Otherwise this could very well end in the $490 payment being reversed and you being out a total of $490 instead of $170. The $170 being the $ you were already owed and the $320 funds you sent back instead of refunding.

Smells like a classic scam. They send you $490 from a hacked / bought account, you send the difference back to another paypal address and then the $490 is charged back.

This whole thing is a lie. Rikugou scammed me..

the whole thing is a lie? LMAO just wait until i get home and start posting up evidence

Care to explain yourself?


OP my advice is to either refund the payment or prepare to have it charged-back. It is beyond suspicious that he sent you extra and wants you to forward the balance.

this is him claiming his paypal got limited RIGHT AFTER. literally 5 minutes or so after i sent him the BTC.
fucking convenient right?

Now he sent me 490 of unverified paypal money and wanting me to repay him the 320 (490 - 170) to him in BTC.

just refund the full 490 otherwise you will be out both the 490 and 170

Can you explain exactly what happened then?

He won't refund the $490

Why did you send $490 in the first place from a unverified account? This look like a shady as fuck man in the middle deal. Someone gonna get screwed.

He was ok with it. He was to send me the remainder in BTC. Now he's refusing to send me any BTC or refund the $490.

He is a scammer.

ok so what you wanted me to do was accept the payment from your unverified paypal. and send you more btc to pay you back for the extra you sent me correct?

this guy a joke or what?

Just to be clear: He was OK with you sending him $490 from another unverified paypal account and then send you back $320 in PayPal (I assume to another paypal account) or BTC?

I was not ok with him sending me an extra 320 from a UNVERIFIED paypal. this was not agreed upon

He was, and now I got scammed. He is keeping my loan and I can't do anything since it wasn't from my PayPal.

u did not specify you were ognna give me a whole fucking 340$ extra and expect me to pay u back the extra in btc.

u also did not mention it was from an unverified paypal.

after re-evaluating my situation. Did your paypal seriously get limited 10 minutes RIGHT after i send first? thats so fucking convenient. then you make up this brilliant idea to milk more btc out?

yea. it all makes sense.

You're so convinced I'm just trying to milk BTC out of you. So adamant...

I'll brb for a bit.

then give me back the btc you took from me. its that fucking simple. pay me the fuck back my btc you took.

Karma is a bitch, what about the illegal gift cards you were selling ?

I'm itching to tag both of them for even mentioning PayPal and BTC in the same sentence... must resist...

See this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1328040

Please post proof that you refunded $490 (here or in that other thread).

Why do you bring a paypal dispute here?
This place is for people who actually don't like to use paypal.
I think this thread should be deleted all together.
