dj6230 scammed me. My 60 dollars amazon for his 39 dollars btc

[rdbase]

What happened::

I sent dj6230 a 60 dollar Amazon gift card and he was supposed to send me 39 dollars btc.  I have many pms shown below that he did receive the Amazon card and said he was going to pay me but right when he was about to his computer crashed for many hours.  Then he got back online and promised it again in 5 hours but didn't come through. He even got a loan while I was waiting for my money as said he needed to get his backup wallet on his hard drive or something.  It's been 36 hours after I made payment and no bitcoin for me.

Additional Notes:

He had good trust as it doesn't make any sense for him to scam me out of 39 dollars but this whole thing has been very shady.  I advise you to not deal with this user until this dispute is resolved.

he have green trust so I will request some DT members to leave him negative so he can't scam more users with his green trusted account

How can you say that it has been hacked.Is there any thread about the hacking of this account in meta section?

Also changed password doesn't means it was hacked.It migjt also have been sold by the real owner .

Scammers are getting smarter, fast. I know this will probably seem like too much work to most of you, but it will usually be a good idea to check if users have a loan before having a deal with them - especially if they're doing a trade with something they claimed to lack in the loan thread.

Attempted scam here too for $40.  He said he'd ship me some stuff with Amazon Prime, offered to use escrow but 'oddly' didn't offer to go first with my rep til I asked.  Disappeared after giving him my shipping address, package never showed up.

Well actually he is a big piece of Shit. The total scammed amount is now $250 including mine $63 
I will now never go first and will use escrow. Even while choosing escrow I will check if everything is Okay to avoid escrows like master-p

Wow, he had green trust?  I did not think it was possible to get it so fast, but that probably just showcases my ignorance about how the trust thing works around here.  I did see he had (+) trust from folks on DT, which I now assume he probably farmed in order to scam.  Interesting, and I do hope everyone who got scammed gets their btc back--if that's possible.  And props to the DT members who painted him red.

too bad. those trust was from 2014. and he was inactive from sept. 2014 to jan 2016. that's two years.
plus, he signed a message using this address -> 18Y9qvwzrYskWBckFyYte3NtokV9uvprWz.

that address was posted here. the post was edited on 22nd january. the archived post shows different address. that's a ground for suspicion if anyone noticed it sooner.

[rdbase]

True, I guess there were signs we could have noticed.   We won't get our bitcoin back but I would be glad to contribute more bitcoin to finding someone that will break his legs lol.  This is the scammers e-mail: ihstravel@hotmail.com

dj6230 have been sending bitcoins multiple times to that address. and that address have a tx that is spend-linked (is that how you say it?) with this address -> 1Ebook5Aawhe5z48oUmjLWtdx896yEa83L

can't find that address anywhere on bitcointalk.
1Ebook have that address on his profile (archive) and is the first user that traded with dj6230 after his inactivity.
