I sent him the payment last night and it's 12 hours gone and he has not sent me the invite.

Just now I checked the Skype, He has removed me from the Skype.

Here is thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1091551.0

His Skype: live:waterfunk191

well it's a new account, and you didn't bother to use escrow; he had nothing to lose from ditching a new account, I'd say you were 100% at fault here.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

Sad to read this story. However, I am hardly surprised at all. Newbie to Newbie deals almost invariably ends with a scam.
You may have avoided this by reading first the sticky tips, here.

nothing really; you got yourself scammed here, and all you have is the guy's Skype, and he can easily make a new one. count your losses and move on.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

I paid him via. PayPal bro

I made the dispute. Any chances of getting back?

Also What escrow to use for the PayPal? (All I see here is for the BTC stuff)

well you should've mentioned that you used paypal in the op. given that paypal's policies for digital items are garbage, there's about a 99% chance that the chargeback will be successful, just make sure to mention you did not get what you paid for. paypal sucks.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

That's because this is the bitcointalk.org.
Use btc to pay next time, with trusted escrow as third party, and you won't have this problem again. You can find escrow in the services section of the forum.

Pay with bitcoin and use escrow next time.
I think waterfunk was a new account of mikecoin, well known scammer.

Hello

Make a ticket to SK and wait some explanation
Do not forget to add this link and the profile like of the scammer
Usually you will win this
Wait reply about this.

I'm RED and that's GOOD, i will never be GREEN and that's not BAD! there's no one i'd rather be than me.
DEV for cryptocurrency but I HATE forks
