I also got scammed by this guy.
I'm hoping PayPal will give me my money back.
Payment was to
j.bird.btc@live.com, and I "bought" 6 BFL singles from him for a total of $2900.
When did that happen??
On Dec 24, 2012 he sent me a PM saying that he would sell me two BFL singles for $500/each and would accept PayPal. (I had a topic in the Goods/Computer Hardware forum looking to buy BFL singles.) I gave him my PP email, he sent the invoice, and I paid it. I replied back to his PM asking if he had any more units for sale, and he said that he'd be willing to sell me two more for $500/each. He sent me another $1000 invoice which I paid.
Day after Christmas (Dec 26) he posts a topic in the Computer Hardware saying he's selling 4 more BFL singles. I PM him and ask if they're still available; he replies and says he'll sell me two for $900 or four for $1800. I ask for two, and he sends me another PayPal invoice, this time for $900, which I also paid.
I then ask for tracking info, and he says he can't find the number but that the package (with the first four) should be there "tomorrow" (Dec 27). That was the last message I got from him, and no packages have shown up. He said that the first four were shipped USPS priority, and said that he would "overnight" the other 2, so I should have received all units by now.
On December 28th or so I saw that he was marked as a scammer and immediately opened PayPal disputes for the 3 transactions. I just escalated 2 to claims, and will do the same for the other tomorrow. (it won't let me do it right now since it hasn't been long enough)
Long story short: it happened on Dec 24, 2012 and Dec 26, 2012.
