Title: Lab is scammer Post by: BenX on February 10, 2016, 12:03:57 AM What happened::
I sent 66 EUR using PayPal, to the user who started this topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1343363.0 for a HDBits.org invite, but he didn't send yet the invite. Yesterday I talked to him about this invite and he wanted to send money with the gift option from PayPal. Accidentally, I sent the money using pay for goods, but he refunded immediately. Today I put more money on the credit card, because it take 1-5 days until I will got the money back from PayPal and after I talked with him using emails, I sent him 66 EUR with the option gift from PayPal. He said it will send the invite after several hours, but no sign until now. I sent an email to him but without response. His name is Sandro Oliveira Matos and have these email addresses: For PayPal: sys77vll@gmail.com b2t4ll@gmail.com The other one used to send and receive emails to/from me: vlc66rk0@gmail.com He blocked me to reply on his topic from here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1343363.0 Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=738275 Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1343363.0 Amount Scammed: 66 EUR Payment Method: Send as gift using PayPal Proof of Payment: http://i.imgbox.com/fCvUA7qH.png PM/Chat Logs: http://i.imgbox.com/LEIh4zBU.png http://i.imgbox.com/WCy0Kf7X.png Additional Notes: None Title: Re: Lab is scammer Post by: rezilient on February 10, 2016, 12:13:19 AM request a chargeback even if its sent as a gift you can still recover it.

Are you sure it's possible to solve the problem by calling the credit card issuer? It's too easy.Title: Re: Lab is scammer Post by: bitcoin revo on February 10, 2016, 01:44:39 AM call paypal and request a chargeback even if its sent as a gift you can still recover it.

Some credit card companies do chargebacks without any apparent reason as well, which is why credit cards are avoided over here on the forum. You should have a good chance at getting your money back.

No need for PayPal dispute shit.

Title: Re: Lab is scammer Post by: BenX on February 10, 2016, 02:22:55 PM the only issue i think is that paypal will close you account for chargwback but not 100% sure I don't care. Anyway PayPal will not help me to get the money back. I was stupid to think that HDBits.org invite can be bought with less than 150 EUR and to pay as gift without even ask for a proof from the user profile account.Title: Re: Lab is scammer Post by: BenX on February 11, 2016, 04:03:14 PM The credit card issuer did a chargeback for those money today, so the case is closed and the scammer is f@cked up. :)
