Just got scammed by this member who seems to have a senior member status. I was going to purchase a couple of $420 coupons from this member and got away with $600 worth litecoin without ever sending me the coupons. This was the original post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3240394.0 where he posted the sale along with his telegram IG going by the name of Sergey who claims to be an "entrepreneur" from Russia. Conveniently its all deleted but i have the telegram conversations.

His email and password were changed recently, it's most likely a bought account, sorry but you most likely got scammed, please use escrow next time

For sure i got scammed. I'm wondering if it would help if we started a stickied post with IG of names of scam accounts so people can cross reference with the thread as an extra step of precaution. I'll definitely escrow next time. We should probably have a stickied thread of a list of trusted members for escrow as well.

There is one, check the sticky thread in the goods section, it refers to a list to of trusted escrows

I'm still pretty bitter about what happened...but i guess its a learning experience.

I also got scammed yesterday by the same account.
Agreed to 1 by 1 trade, he pushed to have me send more initially, but I refused. So I got away with only losing 1 LTC.
If you check his feedback, they re iffy at best. You see from "trusted feedbacks", 2 legendary members warned that this account was bought, and that the email address also changed recently.
2 of the signs made me weary, but still took the plunge, also for $420 coupons.

Hi there, Anyone who was scammed should proceed to open up a scam accusation against the account involved. You can do so here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0Make sure to include your PM's and any other information you have to prove your case. If it appears to have been a scam a DT member will usually come along and tag OP as their tags are more visible to the community. Also tag them with your feedback, as some people ( Not enough people) do actually read these. As a rule of thumb you should always use Escrow, the cost may not seem worth it but then you see a case like this that serves as a reminder.

Yah.... orginally i was going to purchase just one coupon but he offered a better price for a couple. =( I seriously want to break this guys legs for the low life that he is...because i'm a nice guy...i won't but just want to show the amount of resentment i have for stupid stuff like this...

Conveniently its all deleted but i have the telegram conversations. almost scammed me. He broke the deal conditions on the fly. I transferred him a small piece of payment as we agreed - than he started to insist on escrow.. and several days no escrows were available. And then he updated his topic - I posted that we are in a DEAL and he already took some payment. https://i.imgur.com/nMeLU51.pngMy post was removed (probably by him) and hi made a moneyback small amount of BTC back, saying he found a client with better price. I was angry but there was any real clue to name him a scammer - coz he refunded me..

sigh. low life scum.

Yes, he took free coupons from myself and another member and then turned around and sold them. Soulless devil.
