Title: Bestgiftusa.yolasite.com associated with dishonest Paxful Account.

I do not know and actually doubt this user is on this forum, but I wanted to warn you against the website. 
The Paxful user is

Code:
 User899397478AQ3A
Do not open trade for lower that 1 btc +
If you want to buy small amount, go to site and open Live Chat Support www.BestGiftUsa.Yolasite.com

This is one of my pet peeves from both Paxful and localbitcoins.  This little profile statement on Paxful goes directly against the ads that follow that all start at the low end of $1.  This is quite simply false advertising and in this case a little mixed in bait and switch. If you advertise that you will buy from $1-10000 in BTC for whatever, and someone starts a trade at $5, you better honor that shit.  The website that is advertised there looks pretty crappy, but by itself I would never warn anyone directly about it.  It is the fact that the traffic stream that took me there was the bait and switch. 

So, if you run into this site, take extreme caution and know that you are joined by many others that were suckered there by lies and deceit.

i would have zero issue if the ads were for say $900-X, that is honest and i tell people that they should make a site and include the link in their profile, as long as it is not intended to drive that sale away for pax.  slowly use pax to build rep and encourage those happy clients to check out your site for the NEXT trade.

last night, i started a trade and didn't hear anything for like four hours, it was the middle of the night and they forgot to stop their ads, no biggie. but if you are there and i meet the terms of your ad and you say no because the ad was just there for attention, holy shit!

He opens new accounts non-stop.
Obviously there are light minded individuals, naive enough to fall for this scam.
