Do you have any documentation in regards to the loan/deal/trade? I don't think many/anyone is going to just take your word for it

8 months and only posting about this now? what was the trade?

thanks reply

actually I traded many times smoothly with Loureed and they always paid back me BTC as promised
however they paid with long delays and I was ok with it as long as they pay back honestly

we traded more then 7000 USD paypal to BTC exchanges

in July 2014 Loureed was informed me that someone sent they paypal funds with mention btc address in memo and then sender also open dispute for refund back funds and after it they got limited their paypal account with around 4500 US Dollars in it, for 180 days

before this happens , week ago I was already sent them around 3000 US Dollars so I decide to wait either 90 days or 180 days until Loureed paypal account finally allowed to cash out their limited paypal balance of 4500 USD

and in Jan 2015 , full 180 days passed and Loureed paypal account finally allowed to cash out all 4500 usd limited  paypal balance

and now I try contact them from Jan 2015 and now March 20 2015 and still waiting for their reply back with update and pay back my funds

I've seen numerous scam accusations come up that state they've been scammed only to mention that the actual scam happened months ago. Whether or not LouReed is scamming, this is a surefire way to get scammed as well as to get others scammed. If you haven't received your payment then make a thread right away, don't wait months down the road. If it wasn't your fault that his PayPal account was limited there is no reason you should have to wait anywhere close to that long for a payment. It seems like LouReed is taking advantage of you. Hopefully he hasn't done this to his other customers.

Acknowledging slander can sometime be worse, so I wouldn't blame the guy.  Depends if OP can do a better job at substantiating the claim.

If he is online and he doesn't actually owe the money then the least he can do is deny the charges against him. A better scenario would be for him to address the allegations and resolve them.

OR maybe he has already replied to him through a personal message, who knows? However I also do not think he has never scammed any users here in this forum (most probable a mistake).


Title: Re: LouReed Please Reply and Pay back my 2k plus USD worth BTC
Post by: gameristo on May 14, 2015, 07:21:21 PM
thanks for all you guys replies

I was got reply from Loureed via personal message here as on March 24  2015 and they was informed that Green Dot reversed over $3,000 in MoneyPaks, so lost all of that because they couldn't provide receipts for the cards because they were from trading on LBC, and on top of that, got scammed bi on LBC using Chase deposit.

and they said that "I absolutely have every intention to pay you back in full"

so I just trust on him what they say anyways in fact I was sent them more then 3000 US Dollars via paypal funds around 9 months ago and after some time they informed that they got limited paypal account with 4500 USD inside so I just trust them and allow them to pay back me after full 180 days once paypal allow them to cash out all limited paypal funds to their bank account

and now I still waiting while instead of 180 days now more then 9 months passed already

I again sent private message to loureed for help and pay back me at least 2-3 btc right now and remaining will wait more time

in fact I never deal in Green dot / moneypaks or even Chase deposit and I only and only send them paypal funds which still never reversed or hold etc and because of my paypal funds, loureed never got any lost so I friendly request to loureed that please pay back me btc as promised as soon as possible

waiting for Loureed for help and pay back funds

thanks

Its always unsettling to see scam, and many people have price on their honesty, with trusted members that price is only higher.
I would still like to hear other side before making any conclusion, but the lack of contact from that other side is concerning, hence the negative should stay until (if ever) this is resolved.
Personally, i would never trust that user with any money ever again, for the lack of communication alone, and not to mention this hairy situation.
cheers

How do yo now this is a scam, the OP should try to contact him with all his personl possibility (through email, telephone, etc...). However I have seend he has received a negative trust from Quikseller, but he (LouReed) has still a green trust score  ::)...



Where are the defaultTrust users?

Well if the user is sent PM, asking him to come out to this thread to present his side of the story, and he fails to do so, even tho he was online and has red the PM, its a red flag, dont you agree?

Regarding the green feedback, and default trust, theres no point even in discussing it, because feedback system on this forum is terrible.
Accounts selling, multiple accounts, feedback system not regulated.. nothing and noone here can be trusted.

He can reply here or via PM. He isn't willing to do so. I think he won't login to that account anymore but I maybe wrong.

Tomatocage also left a negative feedback.

His green trust rating won't change soon. It may change when more DF users leave negative feedback but still not soon.

This thread has been open for a long time (~3 months) and LouReed has not even bothered to deny the allegations.

I do think it is normally appropriate to requite proof in these kinds of threads, however after the thread has been around for some time, the person being accused should at the very least deny the allegations (or parts of it) so the accuser can provide evidence to refute such denials regarding specifics of the allegations.

The OP does have positive trust from LouReed which supports a trading relationship with him.

LouReed has had negative trust from me for over two weeks now and I have not receive so much as a PM attempting to resolve it (despite me being in his trust network)

At this point I would say it would be appropriate to say that LouReed is guilty of the allegations against him, although they may change if he were to deny the allegations and sufficient time were to pass after such allegations when no evidence was presented

Exactly, you (defaultTrust users) can left him a temporally negative trust (scam accusation against this user). You can remove that feedback when all this situation will be resolved  and as quickseller said : his lack of interest to reply here is very suspocious.

It might not help you but it will prevent others from trading with him in the future. You're basically saying you sent paypal funds, his account was blocked but not because of your paypal funds and you've been waiting over 8 months to be paid back. Others should be aware of this as it's untrustworthy behavior IMO. If his paypal getting locked wasn't your fault, you should have been paid or he could have at least kept in contact with you with a payment plan of some sorts.

Waiting to hear his side of this but the silence is kind of suspicious. I've done many trades awhile ago without problems with LouReed and have left positive feedback for most of those trades. That feedback will be removed and replaced with a warning to other members if he doesn't respond to this.

so I am ok and satisfied now and closing this thread right now

off course I was know loureed is never do any scam but they have some financial issues so why they not able to pay back fast

also I want request to Tomatocage and Quickseller that please remove negative warning feed back from Loureed profile as problem resolved already and in fact there is NO any other complain against loureed on this forum.

thanks for you all guys reply here

I sent you private messages many times but you ignore again and again??


Hello Luoreed

I was messaged you 2 months ago on Sep 06 2015 and now Nov 08 2015 and still no reply from you?
and your Last Active:    November 03, 2015, 04:34:19 AM

James you was said as "I just don't have anything to send at the moment. Until PayPal cashes out the remaining $3k
which time was as on Jan 2015 and now almost 1 year passed but you still ignore my messages??

please pay back now at least 1000 USD as I already waited too long time

its never possible that you still not got stable and can not able to arrange at least 1000 USD cash for me while you own my 3000 USD

I traded from 2 years with other exchanger DR-Exchanger and always sent them paypal funds but still they never got any problem of limited paypal account etc

so please stop ignore me any more and at least pay back now 1000 USD via btc or perfect money or money gram cash or also can take walmart to walmart transfer via one of my friend

I trust you always but its really not good that you keep me too long time on hold from 1 years

I am waiting for you
thanks
Hi James
how are you?
hope all is ok

James now i am sending you this message after 15 weeks
previous time you was able to pay only 0.50 btc while around 3k USD funds own and still waiting for you

I hope you able to got some stable financially right now and able to pay back me at least 2 btc or 500 USD money gram cash

in November 09, 2014 your replied was as below


Sorry man, I'm not trying to avoid you I just don't have anything to send at the moment. Until PayPal cashes out the remaining $3k I don't know if there is much I can do I am tapped out right now.

but in Jan 2015 once your paypal limited account passed 180 days and allowed withdraw funds then you was not able to pay back me any money as promised above and now almost 9 months passed since your above reply was received

I traded too many times with another exchanger Dr-Exchanger on this forum from 2 years and you can ask them that they still never got any problem so far and even they never got limited their paypal account still like yours

so its proof that my funds was 100% clean and ok to you and your paypal account never got limited because of my payments but your other stupit clients did some thing wrong so why paypal do shit

anyways I waited too long time already and I hope you got stable some and able to pay back me at least 2 btc only which not too hard to pay for you now

I hope in previous 10 months you able to got some stable and able to pay back me.

I still ok for parts payment and never ask you pay back me full amount you own

also if you have NOT got btc then please pay back via Money Gram cash and all money gram fees will be mine expenses.

So was LouReed on DT at some point? 

Everyone removed their negs on him prematurely, IMO, because he obviously hasn't paid gameristo back in full.  I've done a lot of business with gameristo, and he earned my trust by paying back a PayPal debt to me when he had bitcoin I'd already sent in addition to him never pulling a chargeback scam with PP funds that I've sent him.  If he got scammed, then LouReed deserves some negative trust--if for no other reason to get his attention, though he may not even care anymore.  His last activity was months ago.

This is a great example of how very trusted members have ended up scamming, and it's one that newbies should take note of.  LouReed has got NO negative trust on his profile, yet he scammed gameristo for a decent amount of money over 3 years ago.  I'm going to do my part in a minute.

I received the below PM from the OP in 2015:
[...]
Today Loureed just replied back and updated me, and transferred back me 1.0 BTC and remaining they will pay back as soon

so I am ok and satisfied now and closing this thread right now

[...]

also I want request to Tomatocage and Quickseller that please remove negative warning feed back from Loureed profile as problem resolved already and in fact there is NO any other complain against loureed on this forum.

[...]
(irrelevant portions removed)

It looks like LouReed contacted the OP, setup some kind of payment plan that apparently he did not follow through with. The OP asked me to remove my negative rating, which I did, and based on the PM, he likely sent a similar message to TC asking the same.

It doesn't look like the OP publicly followed up on the debt until very recently.
