Hello,

I am a person that is not a huge member of the community in general, but I come baring some information that could help you in the future so the same things don't happen to you as they did me. So, this all starts roughly 3 months ago when a user on discord contacted me about a loan. This discord username was called Battery. He came to me asking a loan of $80 EUR to pay for school books. He gave me proper documentation so I gave him the loan. Well, I suppose due to my own stupidity I kept giving him more and more money after he claimed that all his PayPal's were now "Locked". So as the story goes he keeps tricking me and having a new way to get money off me, to which all has added up to $1,387. Now, you can yell at me, call me an idiot all you want for being so easily manipulated. But, I am here to warn everyone that this person is a threat. I also have suspicion (But no evidence) that he operates Banned#3888 (DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THAT TO CONTACT Banned THAT IS HIS IMPERSONATOR). The reason I believe this is because this discord account contacted me after I wouldn't respond to Battery and attempted to purchase bitcoin off me after claiming that I made a post selling it. (I made no such post). After asking him to confirm on site he disappeared and I haven't heard from him since. Now that you know the story. I am asking you guys to come forward with your stories. I will be using this as a discord log for all discords that are accused of scamming, but please, if you have been scammed on site, make sure that the scam report is resolved in your favor before posting on here. Also, ALWAYS confirm on site with EVERYONE. Kilp did this and he saved himself from being scammed.

On a more serious note; try contacting PayPal. Tell them how it is, show the documentation he sent over and hope for the best.

Hey Dessi,
The person in control of the discord account impersonating Banned has since been banned on MC-Market as we found out it was 2Pac. I'm comfortable in confirming this as there was way more than enough proof to show it was indeed him controlling the discord account.

Please do ensure you confirm on site in the future, have you been able to call PayPal to see if they can assist you in getting your money back? I'm sorry this has happened.
