Sorry for your lost, since you were affected directly, create a flag type2 and update the flag on OP to request for our support to make the flag active, making the warning more visible. For future purpose try to archive any evidence you have towards a scam to avoid alterations from the other party. Notice the user has already delete two post on the reference you shared.

edit: Left visible negative feedback on account.

Thanks for your support, did as you suggested. It was really silly of me to get scammed like that. I'll learn from this experience.

So an user accuses me of sending $16 (I don't know the user and I haven't received any payment from him) and I find myself with a negative trust? The email that the user specified does not belong to me, and the user did not send any screenshots of our chat. I think he needs to provide further evidence before I receive a negative trust.

Feedback can always be withdrawn so is support/oppose for a flag. As far you can prove your innocence to an accusation you shouldn't be bothered. The feedback is to prevent any patronize until you have resolved the accusation against you. Found something disturbing about your service threads (self-motivated) and quite some numbers of deleted post just seems fishy to me.

Wow this criminal has the courage to fight back. Btw I filed a PayPal dispute already, so I'll get my money back anyway.

You were so swift to delete the chat history that you caught me by surprise. But why did you remove your telegram username? It's not available anymore.

That's the first warning sign.

Now let's look at your threads. All of them are self-moderated. That's another warning sign. But not only that - they contain removed messages.

Scammed 3 people here (one of them is me). He keeps removing my message that links back to this thread. But don't worry, I'll keep posting it because I don't want you to scam anyone else.

Scammed 1 person here.

What's up with all these messages? Care to explain and show us what you removed?

Question to mods: Is there a way to recover these messages by the forum admins? I'm more than sure that they contain reports by other people who got scammed in the same way.

And finally - there's another feedback submitted on Aug 16 by someone else who claims "scammed me for $13 for an AWS code, all the vouches are his 2nd accounts"

I'm just sorry that I didn't notice it before dealing with this criminal.

That'll be a waste of time and I advice you shouldn't since, the user has the authority to delete any post on his self moderated thread. The best thing you can do, to make the scam accusation warning more visible was to create a flag (and i can see you have done so, that's good) now update the OP with link to the flag which is; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=670 to request for support from DT members to make the flag active.

When the flag become active, a warning will appear on all his created thread meaning you don't have to keep posting on his self moderated thread (which by the way it's useless since he can just delete the posts).
