Hello,

Post the relevant proofs.The account seems to be tagged already,why deal without an escrow using paypal funds with an negative rep account ? You were looking to get scammed on so many levels.

If you paid his through paypal you can always open a dispute on paypal and get your money back.

Please edit the OP and use the scam report format.

Make a proper scam accusation by following the format like this one

What happened::

Additional Notes:

Anyone can see and will immediately tag the scammer with negative red trust.

Whenever I see deals between Paypal and bitcoin and you are not using trusted members like BayAreaCoin, DannyHamilton, Zazarb, Mixan and a few others I have forgot to mention here, it comes to my mind a user signature which I don't remember who he is but his signature is perfect:

Insanity: Doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results.

When dealing with paypal deal only with users with extreme green trust and even then do a check of their post history, password reset if any or any other relevant info to help you protect yourself.

Scams are not moderated in the forum and users should check feedback and last password reset date when dealing with anyone here.

sorry for both of your loses. actually it's simple, it's because he always make a self moderated topic so after he scam, he will delete all of his victim's post/msg, or start the new one.

@Atomicat: yes, if.
seems other people who got scammed didn't opened a scam accusation about the seller. Thanks OP for this scam report, now all people would be aware when they're dealing with the seller.

But if someone who has been scammed open a thread using the Scam Accusation format his account will be tagged by DT which will serve as a warning to anyone trading with him.

That guy scammed me $49.5 paypal. He asked you to send money to a new pp email address, and then delete the email address soon after he received the money.
If you use paypal verified by virtual bank acc or birtual credit card, you will be limited by paypal when start a dispute on paypal.....  So this guy use this method to scam easily....
Don't make deal with Symeave .....
