What happened: We agreed to a deal of my 250$ via Skrill for his 0.085 btc. I sent first, then said he had an issue depositing the money on Bet365 (Its not a problem with my Skrill its a gaming business account). He had a problem with his account, so he sent it back to me and asked to send it to another Skrill so he could be able to deposit into this Bet365. I agreed to do it, he then stopped replying and left.

You could have easily avoided this scam if you used an escrow service. Why didn't you? 250$ isn't that small, you could have bought your safety for a 5-10 bucks Sad

There isn't any email/pass changes on the account recently so I don't think it's a bought account. It looks like the owner just decided to become a criminal...

Yes I will definitely use escrow next time. What a shame...

Yeah it's a shame that you didn't use escrow. Consider this a lesson learned mate. It's not that uncommon for a newbie to be over trusting in members in this forum even though it might seem completely illogical to do so for an older member.

Just make sure you dont make the same mistake twice. Also maybe you could try contacting skrill and ask them to charge back, although this is unlikely.
