"Reputable Scammer"

[Darking]

Hello, my name is Darking or -_-, I was recently scammed by a member named Jonas or Addict . Here is the proof as well as how the situation went down. I honestly don't give two fucks about $65, but just wanted to let you know about how he scammed me and not to trust him . (The times add up as well, he replied almost instantly with done on discord as when he sent the message on MCM).

SITUATION
The user added me on discord when I commented on someone else's post who was buying BTC. I confirmed his identity when I requested for him to send me a DM through the site, which he did and confirmed himself.

We got into a call, he asked me to send him a screen shot with proof I had the funds. I sent him a screenshot which you can see for yourself here;

He then sent two addresses which was part of his whole plot. He told me to send it to his second address since the first one was a mistake. Once I sent it to his second address, I notice he removed the address he told me to send it to and kept the "mistaken" address. I thought it was weird but I didn't mind since he was a "trusted" member in the community.

I then approached him around 2 hours later when I saw that the transaction went through, when I approached him he said that he didn't receive it and that I should check again. I told him about the two addresses and how he deleted the one I sent it to, and asked me which address I sent it to. Which indicate that there were 2.

Then when I asked one more, he says that he only sent 1!?!?

He then of course just started acting like I sent it to the wrong address and that he did not receive anything when he did.

PLAN
(This just outlines how he managed to pull this off but failed)
He sent two addresses and told me to send it to one of them. Once I sent the payment he deletes the address that he told me to send it to and keeps the address that was sent by "mistake". This action makes it seem like I sent the BTC to a wrong address and that he didn't receive it. It makes it a really good plan if you don't fuck up and have someone who takes screen shots or records.


(I did not make this because I felt bad for myself or because I needed the $65 to feed my family. I honest don't give two fucks about the money, it's just about how this guy takes advantage with his reputation. There are too many people out there that use their reputation against new members with less reputation and pull dumb shit like this.)

Regards,
Darking/-_-

Negative reputation exists. He’s a smart scammer, but karma is a bitch.

Has not been a month yet since I joined. I just hate scammers, horrible people who don't care about working hard but more about taking advantage and being heartless.

Kind of difficult to solve this after you call me a scammer and block me on Discord.

If this is my fault somehow, pretty sure it isn't, then I believe we should attempt to solve it. Blocking me on Discord and not listening to anything I have to say, won't solve anything

It’s like asking to listen to Nazis, you don’t listen to people who blatantly scam. From the situation he’s explaining, it’s pretty obvious. What about you refund his money then talk.

@darking pleasd provide a screenshot of the transaction.

Refund money that I haven't received? How are you comparing me to Nazis, especially in this situation. Stupid and uncalled for.

If he did send the money to the wrong address, we could figure something out, depending on his financial situation. I don't know if he sent the money to the wrong address and is then trying to play it off by pretending I pulled some "trick" to force me into a situation where I have to choose between getting banned or paying $60.

I just did what you told me to do, sent it to the address you instructed me to send it to.

I am well off, like I said I don't need $65 but I do not want you doing the same thing that you just did to someone who $65 means a lot to and you just ripping apart the rest of his week.

Blockchain link won't do any good since you deleted the address you told me to send it to but here it is

Okay, you mentioned in the call that you recorded the entire conversation/deal. Would you mind uploading it and posting it on this thread/to a staff member?

I always say that so the person is less inclined to scamming. I wasn't recording because of how small this deal was, I just don't want anyone else getting tricked by this.
