I know it's my own fault

It looks like you were not registered on this forum ^{[based on your registered date and time]}, prior to the incident but regardless of that, how you didn't notice the big red warning ^{[at the top of the page]} on all of @vareole's threads?
^{- Btw, sorry for your loss.}

For what it's worth  , I have ALL screenshots of the TG chat before he deleted them and blocked me ...

Please upload those using a third-party website like "imgur".

It's basically a hall pass for every scammer to just not allow anyone of their victims to post on their thread ...

I completely understand your frustration but that was already a red flag ^{[you should avoid "any seller" that uses that type of thread]}.
^{- Read his/her "Trust summary" page.}

makes me think the mods are in it too ...

They're not but unfortunately, scams aren't moderated in here.
You might want to move this thread to the "Scam Accusations" instead ^{[move button is in the bottom left corner of the page]}.
^{- Use the following "Scam Report Format" to update/edit your first post.}

pfff...

Maybe next time, you should be very keen on the kind of person you are going to send money to for a deal without using an escrow service. Honestly, if you ignored all the warnings that were there then, who is to blame? The mods?

Warning 1




Warning 2



Warning 3

Freedom.  And the ability to keep your own threads from being spammed and driven off-topic.  It's quite helpful in many situations.

Like any liberty, there are those who'll abuse it.

Nice try.  I understand the desire to shift the blame, but the mods aren't culpable.  You got scammed, the scammer is the only one to blame, but only you can prevent it from happening again.  Scams aren't moderated here on this forum.  There is no way for admin or mods to prevent every scam, and therefor any attempt will only lead to a false sense of security.

Yeah, self-moderated threads can definitely be abused, which obviously you've noticed--but that has nothing to do with the moderators here.  They're not in on any scams as far as I know.  Any member is allowed to moderate their own thread in certain sections and as pointed out by DireWolfM14, it's a useful tool to combat spammers and shitposters--you just have to be careful in self-modded threads where someone is trying to sell something.  That's a big red flag.

Scams aren't moderated here on this forum. 

This is unfortunately true.  Personally, I wish it wasn't this way but it is.  It's up to each member to protect themselves against scammers.  So OP, as much as it sucks, you're just going to have to think of this as a learning experience.  You'll know better next time, believe me.

the dude is notorious for his scam here in the forum. how did you even found out about this guy? did he contact you? did you see a post of his here in the forum? if you found out about him here in the forum the red warning above his thread or the red warning on his profile should have given you an Idea not to trust the guy. from time to time people would post a scam accusation thread against him. I wish people would spend a small amount of their time asking looking around about the person they are about to transact with or at least use an escrow every time they are transacting with someone online. I feel bad for your loss but looking at the bright side what happened should teach you to be more cautious when trading online.

Proof that the accused have scammed you or we won't believe you and just consider what you're doing as a slander on someone's name. We can't just point fingers and witch hunt people you know, we need proof and a damning one at that so the accused can't even get away because they've been caught red handed.

I believe him. Vareole is 100% a scammer. I think he is possibly elmanchez but can't actually confirm it.

Just the same cold, remorseless style of scamming through life, giving zero fucks about anybody.

I even made a blacklist of currency exchange scammers and put him at the very top of the list, but that's not enough to stop people who are logged out from getting scammed.

What they are doing trusting total strangers on the internet with big sums of money in the first place is beyond me. Can't help everybody.

But whatever. Karma will get the scammer back, it always does.

@snip~

Please read the OP before such answers and click on the profile of the accused of SCAM - and when you see how much red trust has received so far, then there is not even a 1% chance that the OP is making false claims. With an answer like this, you'll probably come to the @actmyname spammer black list.

My bad, my bad. I am stupid for not checking, it was a force of habit of mine to not jump to conclusion when someone is accused, I didn't know the POS has been a scammer the whole and I was typing that time when it's around my bed time and I am hazy so I didn't want to check on the profile, turns out that a little tap would've helped me.

Nothing to say after hear about your loss and it will continue in the future if you do not learn about forum trust system. Like others said I will also say that no one can save you from getting scammed if you do not get enough time to check someone's trust page before taking the service.

We have already seen multiple scam accusation against Vareole but I don't know why most victims are making the same mistake. If I am not wrong then a specific group of account is working with Vareole but not sure who they are actually. I added this user on proven scammer's list a long time ago but interesting thing is that he is the guy who is continuously making newbies fool every time.

After having multiple red trusts and active flags he is the only person who is stealing peoples money and his success rate is quite surprising. Most probably he is applying his self made trick in telegram and applying that whenever he is getting a newbie.

Elmanchez is still around, he contacted me on Telegram not long ago.  First claiming he was going to repay me some day, with a story about how he lost his legs in the recent conflict between Azerbaijani and Armenia.  Just a few days ago he sent me a message asking for another $100. 

It wouldn't surprise me if he is indeed Vareole.  We know he had a few alts on this forum.  Kind of reminds me of Vinsin in some ways, remember that loser?

Wow, some people really have no shame. Over $100 too, what a loser.

Maybe.. I kind of thought Vinsin was an American for some reason, maybe its just the Peter Griffin avatar, oh well.

I mean I guess its a talent to coax people out of money, but doing it 100% through lies and shit you would never want done to yourself, renders ones existence more parasitic than human.

Nah, his English was shit, google translated shit at that.  He said something once giving me the impression he was from eastern Europe, I figured Romania or Bulgaria.  Elmanchez once claimed to be from Azerbaijan.  I wasn't necessarily saying I believe they could be one person, just reminiscent of one another.   Both seem to possess a calloused soul.

Parasitic is great way of summing it up.  It must be a pretty depressing existence.

It's basically just some information like IP address, device identifier, android version, user agent and location purportedly of Vareole. @monr0Anti doesn't mention anywhere how he got the information or how it connects to Vareole

I would have posted the screenshot, but I am not sure if it's also part of doxing.
