You must mean A negative. If you provide more proof that he did scammed you like a screenshot of your conversation, DT may tag him. Also did it ever occur to you that maybe that account you dealt with is a sold account? Meaning the positive trust in his profile is worthless. Look at his account it's farmed and the postive green trust were from 2014.

That account was likely hacked, as I posted on his trust page, and warned on his thread attempting to sell his iPad.

It looks like he has created many threads attempting to sell various items, and immidiately locking them, preventing others from posting warnings about him scamming. He also locked this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1753365.0) thread someone posted a claim that this guy owes him a $100 refund.

Yes, even without the feedback "and him being unable to sign a message" it was as clear as day, posting after going offline for ~1 year, Opening a thread for PP to BTC "and btc to PP" and making it locked, another locked one for $100 amazon GC's. Contacted me/and probably everyone selling anything and asked to go first and "no need for escrow".. His green was eye-catching though.

He tried to scam me also but I just refused to send first because there were already 2 negatives, including quickseller warning.

I read every comment since I was the 2nd person to give him a negative rating yesterday in the morning, your just ignorant and think you know better, why didn't you ask the people who gave him a negative rating why they did it, everyone on the forum knows Quickseller even with those negative rating.

I traded with him before you leaf a negative rating.I only saw a negative of Quickseller but he is trusted -48.Someone with trust - also leave on my profile with slander .I think someone is untrusted to leave a negative is not cost.

Call PayPal and tell them to dispute it manually for you

Would that freeze my account saying i was buying bitcoins with my paypal account using the transfer to friends and family ? .i do not what paypal freezing are suspending  account over that ahole.Also me thinks that money long long gone by now .What i could do is try to get his real name and address .I assume he might be that stupid to use his real name and address with his paypal account .I assume they be a few people interested in that here some how  8) .If it within the rules i can post his paypal address here?Me thinks someone could track him down with that   ;D

AFAIK, you should be able to dispute the payment by calling Paypal and saying that your account was compromised.

Else, if you paid through your bank, just call your bank and tell them the transaction was fraudulent. No guarantee of success, might even get your account suspended.

Edit: As quickseller said, this wouldn't be the best method. But really, you are getting scammed by the other user. You either do this and be  the bad guy or just leave it alone. F&F does not have any protection.

Making either of those statements to PayPal/your bank would be untrue, and potentially fraudulent on your own end. Yea this sucks, but if you want to be honest/truthful then you are not able to reverse a PayPal transaction send Friends and Family (those that have no issue of acting fraudulently should have no trouble reversing a friends and family transaction). This is one reason why dealing in PayPal at all is a very bad idea.

just because someone has a shiny member status does not mean he is trustworthy, particularly with how he asks people to go first for him and him posting after a long break, the hacker did not change the password and email though so i guess it was quite well planned.

calling paypal in regard's to dispute will complicate issue.However, he/she can file charge-back request in case if bank account was used to fund this transaction so, it does not really matter whether the buyer send payment as gift or to families.

NOTE: it's possible to claim charge-back for every payment paid from bank account when linked to paypal.

Thanks

Lenkug was hacked I guess at the time when OP got scammed. I already looked into this.

The one now , I believe is the real owner who owned lenkug. You can verify it with ones who had traded with real lenkug earlier.

I guess trust rating left on by Blazed and BCB are enough to verify it^^.
