As you can see he never sent me what i ordered. As soon as i sent payment he stopped responding. dont buy anything from this person

No offense, should have seen it coming. Africa.... (Ok ok poor taste in jokes). Still you should've not carried it out on Skype, and also I don't think this is the sub for this.

1. This is the wrong section to be posting this in, but at least you took the time to post it.

2. You should not have dealt with this user. Look at his trust rating, dig into who exactly you're buying something from. If you don't spend the time to look into this person or if you don't spend the time trying to make sure your deal is safe with an escrow, I don't think you should be trading on this marketplaces yet. You need to be more careful because scammers mooch off people who fall for their antics like you and you end up losing a lot of what you worked hard for.

Same accusation here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2069818.0 Seems like that this guys is really into ripping off new members that have just joined the forum and looking for quick deals and not using escrow.

Please use the appropriate scam report format though as we need the txid and stuff like that. It's nice that you've provided screenshots. See here for the format/template: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260073.0

I'm assuming this is the user in question: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=215177

Never, ever deal with someone that has nearly no rep off forum, without escrow. This is basically calling for scammers. Take this as a lesson, thankfully it was only a low amount. Trust me people get ripped off thousands here.
