Do you have any screenshots? That would certainly help getting the scammer tagged so that there is a warning for anyone that gets approached by him again in the future.

Based on his trust feedback, you can actually see there is a lot of people getting scammed the same way (sending coupons first/sending BTC first, then getting scammed):

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3032213.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2285977.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2505381.0

Always use escrow in these kinds of trades, and always research the trust ratings of the person you're dealing with before you deal with him. In this case, his untrusted feedback section was filled with negative feedback, but unfortunately nobody has tagged him on DT.

Again, please provide some proof, so that DT members can actually tag him with evidence.
