In addition to, I wonder why the user (OP) whose account was registered some years ago will still take negative feedback for granted. I have report the scammer account to the moderators but that doesnt mean his account willl be ban.
Be careful next time.
Scam is not moderated here so Even if you report the account to mods, nothing will be done to it, except that you can also make a change by leaving some negative feedback on the profile and supporting the newbie flag i raised sometime back
OP any business you carry out online, you first need to do some research about your business partner including ratings and feedback from previous customers or other members. This could have saved you from losing your money.
Always use escrow services too
