What happened:: I saw that user selling .9BTC for $600 WU. I made a post & he replied today. I was pretty sure its scam but wanted to see how they scam people so i can expose them. So, They made a fake whatsapp account and named Monbox(Even they failed to spell the correct username). Read the chat logs please.

Hilarious.MonBox it seems. Shocked
Glad you dodged the bullet.I've reported his account and maybe he will get banned for impersonating trusted members of the forum.You might want to mention his additional details like the fake number he used and (his number) also associated email id's if any.Mentioning them helps in connecting the same scammers in the future.I did laugh.

One really needs to be either stupid or very 'innocent' to fall for something like this. Good job OP. Cheesy Tagged.

Note: You should downsize those images a bit.
