I don't think there's much we can help you with here. You should've used escrow though through someone trusted on the forum (fter verifying their identity).

If you post proof of telegram messages and the transactions involved (unless he deleted them with the account)...

yep.  the telegram messages were gone because he deleted his telegram account

[jackg]

You sure? I got messaged by a potential scammer and it still has the chat history and a ghost where his profile pic was?

Edit: yeah just checked and you can delete messages for both pretty quickly.

Unfortunately I think you do not have anything with you to proof this and also once a money is sent, its gone forever. You should have used escrow or paid the half amount first to reduce the loss. However i do see a transcation of 15$ on the scammer btc address.

I Think the Scammer  deleted the conversation first before deleting His account in telegram thats why the conversation is already gone together with the accounts profile.

in Your case maybe the scammer only deleted His account without deleting your conversation mate.

Or maybe i am wrong .

yes.  this user said he can provide phone numbers to rent (phone numbers from a country that's very hard to find SMS verifications providers).  

He said that he lives in the country, even gave me a picture of the driver license (which is very possibly fake)

asked $15.

I sent him https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/ca7038a42411b3f16717c92ec5f9f17cab41ca25c5dfffe789d5cb5f987fd762

then he deleted his telegram account where we had our conversation (his telegram acount was @AyungP).  Now when i search @AyungP, it doesn't even exist.  But if you look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262855, that's his telegram account

Does he have a bitcointalk account ?
It would be appreciated if you can give his profile link so others can be careful and also that it can be tagged (after proper evidence).

P.S This is not a right board. Please move this conversation to scam accusation.

[Botnake]

I am wondering why this discussion is still in the services board,  OP please move this to the scam accusation board, that's the right board for the topic.
Just get all the evidence you have and show it in the OP, people will see it especially the DT so if you are telling the truth and you have a valid evidence, the account will be tag, but the account you accuse is just a newbie, if that account get tag or lose his reputation, he might easily create a new account.

so with the money you lose, if you are telling the truth, just don't expect you'll recover that.

If I am not mistaken, this is the profile link of the OP accused.

Based on the link he posted, maybe the one he accused posted there but deleted it.

When I look at the post history of this chenli1995, it looks like he has not only one telegram account but many.

@Botnake is right, even if this newbie account is tagged, he will not be able to get back the money got from him by the scammer. Because it can also create a new account again.

All you can do OP is forget that and move on. Just think of that as a lesson for you and I hope it will not happen again. Do not just trust especially newbies and do not have good ratings ...

Thanks for reporting, nice to see we are at the right board, so let this discussion keep going.

I think he should PM chenli1995, and tell him about this thread and if he doesn't respond, that could mean he is guilty but when there is no evidence, it's not right to red tag an account IMO. To OP, he just need to learn a lesson from his experience.

Without proper evidences no one can't get sure that this account holder is the person who took 15$ from "OP". Telegram related deal is always risky and OP is another burning example. Although the amount was small and OP didn’t make much bigger transaction with the scammer.

"OP" its a sour experience for you. Hope you will not repeat the same mistake in the future. Before taking any service from a newbie its always safer to use trusted escrow services.
