Hi everyone!!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my post. I have recently been robbed by JUNETEENTH for $429.81

Blatantly stolen from me, just took me money like he deserved it. I will assume he lives below poverty level and imagine he only stole my money for the sole purpose of feeding his 5 children, otherwise I don't see how he deserves my money any more then I do... seeing as I am the one that has to work extra shift at work for the next 4 weeks in order to make up for my lost money.

I am in the process of filing a police report in order to track this criminal. He made a big mistake by selling my Gift card, even if he 'sold it' to himself in order to refrain me from obtaining my funds-- it is FRAUD- which is  FEDERAL OFFENSE- and I fully intend on follwing this through until I face him in a FEDERAL COURT. I will be using this and any information to follow in said defense.

thanks a lot JUNETEENTH! You are a true winner!!!


So...



the story goes as follows ::

(Please note this converstation is copied word-for-word... if anyone should have a discrepancy PLEASE send me a private message and I will happily send you screen shots of any and all parts of the conversation you have an issue with)

Note:: I will gladly follow all points of refrence with a best buy case number as well as a police Report, just please PM me for this info so long as I can verify you are NOT Juneteenth as I am well aware he has multiple log-ons






(My posts will be read as "Nachi" and the theft will be read as "Juneteenth")

Hi

I am a newbie so I can only post here.

I have a Best Buy gift card that I would like to exchange for bitcoins (at a discount, of course).

If anyone is interested, please let me know your exchange rate. I have about $500 more best buy gift cards if all goes well.

Thanks

did you confirm balance?

>>i just saw this. ill confirm now and send btc


**NACHI**« Sent to: Juneteenth on: July 04, 2013, 03:36:34 PM »
you never sent it?? whats going on?

**NACHI**« Sent to: Juneteenth on: July 04, 2013, 03:40:03 PM »
hello?

You used my gift card, but never transferred the btc?

***NACHI***« Sent to: Juneteenth on: July 04, 2013, 03:55:15 PM »
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here for now....but I'm assuming this isn't going to turn out well for me seeing as you suddenly logged off right after you spent my gift card but didn't transfer anything....

I just don't understand why you blatantly ripped me off like that? Just because you could? I never did anything wrong to you.

You could at least send me some of what you owe me. That was a lot of money that I have to come up with now for trusting you. Thanks a lot.


**JUNETEENTH**« Sent to: nachi4890 on: July 04, 2013, 05:28:14 PM »
>>whoa dude! It was the weather.. and do not talk becausse as i recall you left too. im waiting on a small snyc of my wallent and its sent


**NACHI**« Sent to: Juneteenth on: July 04, 2013, 05:46:08 PM »
Sorry to accuse but when I saw the gift card is used with zero balance but no money sent you have to see where I'm coming from....it's just a lot of money I cant afford to lose. thanks for getting back to me


**JUNETEENTH**« Sent to: nachi4890 on: July 04, 2013, 05:53:03 PM »
no problem. just waiting on sync.. I combined the gift cards.. but havent used the balance yet. :-)


----NOTE---by this point, JUNETEENTH had ALREADY used the balance, contrary to what he wrote in his message, as I checked it less then 2 hours after sending the GC info and the balance went from $429.81 to $ZERO.ZERO ($00.00)... Hey Juneteenth, this was the first moment you robbed me.... electronically.  Huh .... very suave of you



***NACHI**« Sent to: Juneteenth on: July 04, 2013, 10:19:38 PM »hello?

any idea how much longer the sync is going to take? Is the weather still effecting it? I don't really understand how that works but bad weather over here too and no problems synching at all. Wish you would have given me a heads up that the btc wasn't readily available.

I am spending my holiday at the computer waiting for a transfer  

please give me an update.. I did not disappear wile you waited for your end of the deal-- have been upfront with both of my transactions and would appreciate the same. thanks.

**NACHI**


**JUNETEENTH**« Sent to: nachi4890 on: July 04, 2013, 11:18:59 PM »
i have been watching your messages. it is 190 left to sync i see why its taking forever...

So if I understand correctly, you gave a giftcard to a stranger on the internet and you are surprised he took it and ran?

wow.. must admit I am very surprised at all of the sarcasm coming from forum members.
I didn't realize I had asked for anyones pity. Just trying to prevent this from happening to anyone else. Seems as though Juneteenth has done this before but no one has taken action. I apologize as I didn't realize scam prevention was unacceptable here... Srry guys!!!!

You leaving negative trust would not have any affect on his rating.

He cut and run. I don't see what's so special about this. If I read this shredded English properly, he had successful transactions, then cut and run. Pretty par for the course as far as things go.

No ban yet ? Shocked
How is it possible ?

Bear ? John ? This guy needs to shut up until justice knocks to his door.

[OVER] RIDDLES 2nd edition --- this was claimed. Look out for 3rd edition!
I won't ever ask for a loan nor offer any escrow service. If I do, please consider my account as hacked.

I've already moved across the country. And I don't "need to shut up". That sounds borderline facist.

On topic - My point was simply that there is a difference between a "selective scammer" (someone that hits you because he can with no real consequences) and a "runner".

A selective scammer will hit 1/10, 1/20, or that sweet bulk amount out of 50 legitimate transactions. The world could worship a selective scammer for their legit reputation and honesty, while two or three people cry foul. They are extremely hard to detect, even harder to catch, and impossible to stop, as the human attitude towards business transactions is usually "Well -I- didn't have a problem...". If you've dealt with a person for $50 amounts, and the rest of the people vouching for him have dealt in $50 amounts, do not be the first to deal in $200 amounts. That's the best advice I can give.

A runner simply waits until the "pot" is big enough (enough trust has been built, transactions performed) and then hits as many people as he/she can in one swoop. They are difficult to detect, easy to catch, and difficult to stop.

A tell-tale sign of runner behavior might be a "great deal", or someone who is only offering large sums of something. Or if they suddenly stop accepting escrow. But that cold and sick feeling in your stomach when the PMs go quiet means you've just been hit.

A selective scammer can be exposed with this kind of thread. A runner is ready to go down in flames (and with your money) and does not care about these kinds of threads. That's what I'm saying.

Never. Ever. Ever. Ever. Ever deal outside of escrow. Just don't do it. Wait your 1-3 days for John K (or less than that) and escrow properly.

You might also wasn't to do your homework with how the scammer tag works.

To the the OP, it sucks that you lost your money, but you should never risk anything that you can't afford to lose, and ALWAYS assume someone online is going to scam you.

It's the nature of the beast, it happens.
