Title: JumperN Scammer
Post by: CaptainTacos on April 23, 2017, 02:24:43 AM
What happened::
I was selling 44 dollars worth of gold from Goldmoney for BTC and JumperN messaged me saying he will buy my gold at 80% the value. I accepted his offer and we set it up and i didnt use an escrow like an idiot cause im new and figured since he was a SR Member that he was trustworthy. After i sent him the gold he never sent the bitcoin and has not returned any of my messages in over a week.

It looks like they already have possibly scammed some others users before:

A minor lesson to op: Ignore user ranks. Anyone can buy an account on Bitcointalk of any rank. You should be looking at trust ratings. Deal without escrow (if you must or want to) only with users that have a high trust rating and have conducted a decent number of trades. Anyhow, I've left them a negative rating.
