I never understand why people even go to the effort, like, you'll probably be refunded by PayPal and his account is going to be screwed and PayPal will chase them for the money.

Sorry you've had to go through this, it's a shame that people are so dishonest in this day and age.

I just do not understand why administration does not do anything after the scammers are exposed and still allow them to remain in the community...

Because moderators and staff do not moderate a scam.

All user responsibility their self before doing any transaction.

Since you using paypal as the transaction, you should dispute your paypal transaction, in case you want to dispute the paypal : https://www.paypal.com/uk/smarthelp/article/how-do-i-open-a-dispute-with-a-seller-when-a-purchase-goes-wrong-faq957

Give time for him around 7 days.

If he still not contact and sending the fund to you, you can be created a flag against him so he will get the "WARNING" banned on his profile.

Don't forget to share the "flag link" so everyone can check the case and support the flag went they verified the scam.

Bumping this . Shouldn't some DT members paint his account red ? It's been already some time since OP got scammed of the 145 $.

You should start the flag and ask for support. Only the victim can start a red flag against someone. All people on DT can do is give him a yellow flag.
