https://bisq.community/t/important-cash-app-and-venmo-payment-methods-have-been-blocked-due-to-chargeback-activity/5459In response to recent reports of fraudulent chargeback activity 4, Bisq co-founders have broadcast network-wide alert messages blocking both Cash App and Venmo payment methods from further use.
What happened?
We have investigated the chargeback reports described in the link above, and confirmed that they are valid.
One or more chargeback scammers have been operating on the Bisq Network using the following onion addresses:
trvbnoqv7vikaghm.onion:9999
jinspb4cs57j3o7g.onion:9999
4id77pz3wqbc5yrn.onion:9999
And using the following aliases:
Venmo username Sylvester-Harrington (using onion address trvbnoqv7vikaghm, dispute case on May, 2.)
Venmo username Rhoanne-De-Guzman (using onion address jinspb4cs57j3o7g)
Venmo username Carl-Aliff (using onion address trvbnoqv7vikaghm, dispute case on April, 29.)
Venmo username Amy-Abbott-4 (using onion address trvbnoqv7vikaghm)
Cash App cashtag $ssl0319 (using onion address 4id77pz3wqbc5yrn)
Cash App cashtag $gjohnson527 (using onion address trvbnoqv7vikaghm)
Cash App cashtag $Edbr18 (using onion address 4id77pz3wqbc5yrn, dispute case on May, 8.)
Update (I add here newly reported usernames related to the known scammers):
Venmo username Patrick-Hinojosa-2 (using onion address 4id77pz3wqbc5yrn, trade on May, 1.)
Thus far, there have been 5 successful chargebacks, 3 via Venmo for $1200 USD and 2 via Cash App for $650.
The scammer(s) got blocked by their onion addresses and user names so they cannot continue with their current accounts anymore.
In all cases, the scammers have been the BTC buyer, and have completed payment via Cash App or Venmo to the BTC seller (the victim), and have then initiated a chargeback after the Bisq trade is completed, resulting in the scammer walking away with both the BTC that was traded and the cash that was used to purchase it.
In order to minimize further risk of these chargebacks, we have blocked all Cash App and Venmo activity indefinitely and possibly permanently.
πως γίνετε αυτό να πάρει τα χρήματα κανονικά στον λογαριασμό του και μετά να ακυρώσει την παραγγελία και να του επιστραφεί πίσω το ποσό? Και μιλάω για το cash app και το vemmo. Και στο cash app αφού μπορείς να αγοράσεις κατευθείαν bitcoin από εκεί.
