his icq - 721467203
his telegram @kendrickllama

Here goes the story..
In 12 June user PryptoMontreal contacted with me in ICQ and wanted to buy some gift cards.
I told him to pm me his icq so I know with who I am talking.
We were talking for a while, but since he did not have many previous trades I did not want to go first with him and we both didnt want to pay escrow fees so this deal was cancelled.

Today I saw that he was advertising his onevanilla cards in some ICQ group.
I added him (I was logged in with different icq and I did not know at first with who I was talking) so I added him and asked for cards since I was out of stock and the price was okay. I could make a quick few bucks.

He sent me some screenshot of balances and I asked to do the same with 100,150,250 card. After some time he sent me new screenshots, but he did a mistake. I will post link with screenshots so everybody can see themselves. Check 150$ card screenshot balance, original value and credits difference. Also under transactions you see INCOMM date and time 06/18/2019 6:48AM - its not 6.48AM nowhere in US yet.

Here are proofs that it was him in ICQ

Now I will send evidence that he sent me fake/photoshopped proof of card which clearly shows that his attempt was to scam me and nothing else.

He has scammed others - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5126594.msg51366727#msg51366727
He is still trying to scam - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5155976.msg51522554#msg51522554

and noone wont do anything?

I have pm-ed him with this thread link so he can explain why he provided me photoshopped fake proofs..

1. I mostly resell my cards. These screenshots were provided by my supplier.
2. I have made multiple sales to many buyers. I can share my telegram details with a trusted user to get this verified.
3. I am always ready for an escrow if the buyer agrees with the terms.
4. I haven't scammed anyone! That comment was made by a dumb kid who wanted me to go first and when I refused he rant over my thread.
5. OP blackmailed me and asked me for $100 in order to keep his mouth shut.

I have been providing my services for a long time, and this guy was just looking to extort money from me for a mistake that my supplier made! Instead, he should get a red tag for extorting money from members.

If thats the case why did you block me me in icq?
After that I added you in telegram and you said thats not you in icq and you never use icq. You blocked me again and deleted chat history.
Why this was necessary? Why you did not explain it to me?

You claim that your supplier made a "mistake" . Photoshopping fake photos to scam people is a mistake?

You are lying scammer who got exposed and now you are trying to clean your reputation.

Please show everybody screenshots of the same date and time that your "supplier" sent you these photos.
Its simple and easy to prove if thats the case..

OP, this is very circumstantial proof in my opinion but I think enough to flag him as a fishy character.

My primary concern with PryptoMontreal is that how he is able to get his OneVanilla gift cards at more than a 35% discount. This generally suggests that the method he obtains these gift cards (if he actually has them) is shady at best, or illegal at worst.

These are warning signs already. I haven't seen any legit gift card sellers that obtain their cards in legitimate ways offer such steep discounts.

If you were to deal with this guy, understand that even escrow won't protect you from a fraudulently obtained card. Escrow only protects the transaction process itself.

I resell my cards! As stated above, I can share my details with a trusted user in order to prove my statement. Amazon cards I sell are mostly obtained from e-whoring!
My suppliers are users on Paxful and a guy over skype. None of my buyers has every had a complaint, again, can share telegram details so as to get trades checked!

PS :- If a staff member asks me to stop, I'll readily stop my sales right there!

So it is okay to claim that he has cards and send fake photoshopped proof?

Once more PryptoMontreal you can easily prove everybody that it was your supplier who sent these pictures. Just post few screenshots where he sent you these with the same date and time you were talking with me.

Unless you can do it you are a scammer and a liar and I will keep posting under every your trading/loaning post to keep other members informed with who they might be dealing.

Please post proper proofs and create a flag against the user so DT members can support it. Reading the information posted above, I can't jump to conclusions just yet but based on your proofs I'll leave them a negative rating if desired.

Staff members won't tell you to stop.

Nor will you be handed a ban. All that will happen is that a DT member will potentially tag you if you continue with this shady behavior.

I still don't see your point here - could you directly answer the Photoshop allegations as opposed to dodging them? Even if you are a reseller, if you did pass on these cards that are PS'd, wouldn't it still result in a financial loss on the end of the victim?

Also, what's your side of the story with this new allegation?
