Title: Avoid dealing with these sellers
Post by: gazora on November 29, 2020, 11:44:51 AM
Hello people,

On this post, I will be sharing my experience while dealing with several sellers here. the purpose of this post is to spread awareness.

I have always avoided using crypto as payment because I have not had any good experience using it here on this website. Therefore I decided to put the name and the link of every scammer that I discover.


To start with, the user with username Rodvay scammed me and stole my money.


His method is advertising for products on the web that accepts Paypal as a payment method. then, he tells the victims that he accept cryptocurrency. After he receives the money, he won't reply nor deliver the items. He scammed me for 230$.

the link above is one of his tricks.

be aware of dealing with him.

What is this topic for? Do you know what a "negative review" is? Moreover, he has a flag.

This account has had warnings for a long time. If you can't read, then nothing will help you. I feel sorry for you

Even though you shared with the cybercrime, but it's quite complicated to recover your funds. It's gone whatever you sent to him, cryptocurrency isn't reversible. Surprisingly, you are warning others now, but you hadn't obeyed the warnings by DT members. Lots of similar threads have been created on the forum, but sadly, no one is hearing the warning.

Anyway, sorry for your loss.

You should look out for any warnings before dealing with anyone especially users with low reputation.

The user in question has some negative feedback and a warning on top of the post for guest yours and perhaps newbies. I would like to confirm if you are able to see this warning on top of his advert: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5292775

AFAIK, this notification will appear when you are in a "Guest" mode, but when if your account is log in, the warning that you will see is the negative feedback under the user's profile name, including the flag that created by the DT members was a visible warning to all users that might be dealing with the said scammer's profile.

That's right, a lesson must learn, and next time, learn how to use escrow service upon dealing with random people on the internet.
Sorry for your loss and good thing you created this thread as a warning too. 

By the way, I supported the flag.

Same like others you may haven’t checked his trust page before making the deal with him. Its a alt account and negative trust is visible on his account. Few days earlier i tagged him but our tagging will make no difference if you guys don't feel it necessary to check why a user's is bearing  red paint on his profile.

I will suggest you to move your thread to " Scam Accusation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0)" and follow the proper scam report format to make your accusation much stronger. Please don't forget to add all the evidences that you have in your hand.

Well apparently, some government and their anti-cybercrime divisions often tend to take the punishment seriously, especially once the law accepts the complainant's evidences to proof a certain online crime/theft had been done by the accused party. With that, there could be ways to give back the money of the complainant once the case allows him to get his funds back by either the bank accounts of the accused party or by the accused refunding the money to the complainant traded for a lighter punishment. But if every transaction was done through both online and via cryptocurrency, odds to win the case are very low, as the medium of possible evidence is mainly viable to tampering and falsification.

Are you sure that he scammed you?

Do you have any proof of communications with him. @ralle14 is in a signature campaign that pays $100 worth of BTC week and $125 if on bonus. Why would he want to scam you If he can get more than $175 within 2 weeks?

Lem me try PMing him about this. He may not be aware.

I didn't reach out to you and I haven't reached out to anyone this year, all of my PMs this year are just from giveaways and updates/communication from the loans that i've requested. The only digital goods i've tried selling recently is the giftcard i've bought from coinsbee (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5272130.msg55086436#msg55086436) and I wasn't even successful at that. Also i've never made a transaction with xrp and logfiles is right I wouldn't risk my account for such amount knowing that I could earn it from joining signature campaigns.

Interesting. As ralle14 has given a justification, I wonder how did you come up with this post and the transaction link? Was someone pretending to be them? Or you're simply bullshitting your way around accusing reputed members?

It would be nicer if you also included relevant proofs in your reports otherwise they're as useful as your quoted post.
