Title: Thank you for the refund shdvb !
Post by: michporter on February 03, 2015, 01:26:44 AM
What happened::
I've bought before from this guy some btc and stuff.
I made several exchanges with him. All went smoothly without problems.
Until today when this guy Richard who also bought and sold me before stole my money.
I give him the card with the signed receipt and 1 photo with the code and he aks for my btc address .
After that he told me that I must wait few minuts and he told me that the card was loaded by his seller and I must wait for the payment.
He told me that they will charge me for %12 of the amount and I will receive the money in my btc address.
Also he explained me that I must return to their website if I don't receive the money in about 1 hour.
I returned to the website and the Richard was off.The guy from the chat told me that I've been scammed by Richard and that this was his last day on their company.
That he will try to refund my  money in about 24 hours but he don't know for sure because MAYBE Richard didn't loaded the card yet.
He advised me that I should find a paypal where to try to redeem the card .
I didn't made pictures with the first conversation with Richard because it wasn't the first time dealing with them and I had no fear.
I made pictures with the second conversation with the other guy from their website and where he admit that Richard scammed me.
As far as I know a seller with his reputation must check every single of his  employees no?
I hope to receive the refund in the next 24 hours so he can proof that is a great member of this community and help a poor guy like me

SHD is in the wrong and should reimburse you.

The only thing that needs to be determined is whether or not Richard just created another account to do this, or if it's actually a real person.

I really hope for a refund :( I know that shvb is a legit exchanger.I bought from him few times before.I guess more than 2 time from Richard himself without any problem.
But how can you trust in the future in a company where any employeed scam you when he likes without the assurance that you will be refunded.

I understand, but he scammed me when he was still working at your company.I dealt with your company not with Richard.
I don't want to be rude but from my point of view,as employer he is your responsibility.
I'm not a rich guy, when my wife will hear she will kill me :(
Please refund my money please sir

You can take my btc address from your chat where I spoken with Richard. I guess that you keep the logs.

It's not needed, it's just a recommendation/guide which makes it easier for us to read.

I know but I think it is very easily to use that format, and it is very "efficient" (because we will have all the information  fastly).

These PayPal My Cash cards have been bringing a lot of negative vibes to the forums.
They're the new Starbucks gift cards for money laundering, and there's certain aspects about posts made involving them that's a dead giveaway for such. But I can't say what that is :)

They are the new MoneyPaks. MoneyPak reload codes are no longer sold at most places so the next best thing that can be carded at certain stores is PayPal mycash cards. They will probably get pulled soon enough... Wonder what scammers will try and sell next.

They are not the new moneypaks. A lot of people have the wrong idea when it comes to reload cards. Reload cards will always exist no matter what happens. Moneypak was just in too many controversies. This led to a spawn of other reload(it) cards.

I meant the way people are getting them, usually by using stolen credit cards and by scamming others. If you haven't noticed, moneypak resellers have switched over to reselling paypal mycash cards.

This forum is going to be flooded with people trying to make a quick buck by reselling these cards. You should be VERY careful buying and loading them to your personal paypal account because eventually paypal will freeze your account just like they did with fraudulently obtained moneypaks.

Speaking of paypal mycash cards, it's funny how newbies will get negative feedback for trying to resell cards but take a look at this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=942945.0  ::) No negative feedback left on his profile.

I have been dealing with mycash cards long before the demise of moneypak. PayPal has always frozen account holders who redeem more than 1 $500 mycash card in a row. I have seen this occur myself. It is interesting how it works. Many codes come from ransomware. Even reloadit, vanilla, and so on come from ransomware. Keep in mind, vanilla are discontinued starting April 1, 2015. That leaves reloadit on the table. I, myself am a vendor on a rather large scale. Moneypak was awesome. Vanilla is awesome. Mycash is something I am not a fan of.

Mycash will be gone pretty soon.. I'm sure during the next few weeks paypal is gonna be getting enough complaints to not want these on the market. Next will be reloadits, the only ones left for scammers.

There are other reloads besides reloadits. There will always be some form of card that you can reload out on the market.
