USER: Summersun

Scammed me out of $10 USD. Pretty sad.

What happened::

I needed to move some money to my Barion wallet, and bank charges were high, so I asked here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1816614.msg18095649#msg18095649 If someone could send me money on barion for BTC.

I offered $10USD for $8 in my barion wallet. Summersun never sent it.

lol That is still something for someone with a throwaway newbie account.No point in accusing them,they are here to target naive people like you who fall for anything.No solutions,just take precautions.

Was going to do a trade with this user when I posted on his thread about using outside escrow sites.
But no response.
But then I see he says he was scammed by DavidXXX member who was with red anyways, so I wondered why he took him up on his offer.
Then I going to do a deal with theis DavidGermany guy who also looking for a paypal trade for btc.
By pm he sent this to me around the same time:
!!! WARNING: This user is a newbie. If you are expecting a message from a more veteran member, then this is an imposter !!!

I give u my bitrate profil. So do u want trade?
I see this today:
!!! WARNING: This user is a newbie. If you are expecting a message from a more veteran member, then this is an imposter !!!

I give u my bitrate profil. So do u want trade?
What of this?

Timelord is connecting him with this DavidXXX account that is a known scammer.
Makes you wonder now. Undecided

It is quite saddening to see that people are willing to lose their reputation for $10, which is literally lunch money. If people are this desperate maybe they should just go and get a job, the efforts that they put in scamming people will probably yield them 5-10x more if they worked legitimately.

However in an anonymous online environment like this, things like this do inevitably happen.

You'll probably not get anything back from him, but consider this a lesson learned.
