So i text him and his GF replies saying she has his phone and she is a complete psyco... i was calm said i planned to put the money on hold until i talked to him, she then proceeded to call me an "arrogant douche" for absolutely no reason..

What is this stuff coming too, what happened to a nice simple transaction these forums?
Cool story bro...especially the part about how you went through with the deal even though this guy was fishy.

And why did this gf of his call you a douche? Oh wait, you already said it...she's a pysco. You have no idea who this girl is, but you know she is psyco....

seems like a few of these scam stories have popped up over the last week, but in every situation the forum bands together and collectively shits on the scammer. its fun to watch, and gives me confidence in dealing here. also, i use paypal and don't send money as a gift so i really don't have much to worry about anyway.

Nice to see the forum put the scammer on blast. Now the real work find nude pics of his girlfriend.

Also if paid by credit card you can do a chargeback.

That's not what you wrote earlier...you said he seemed fishy to begin with. And no you aren't misunderstanding me...I don't doubt that you were ripped off, I just don't know why a total stranger would call you a douchebag over the phone and how you would know that stranger well enough to call her a psyco. Is there something you said to her?

And if she really did call you a douchebag, who cares? What does that have to do with the guy who ripped you off?

She was crazy, that was the point, the entire story doesnt simple have to explain that i was ripped off, the entire story paints a picture of exactly what happened. And it was through text not over voice. And was completely uncalled for.

Point being others have been ripped off by this same person, and you coming on here trying to troll a thread for no reason is fucking pathetic. Get a new hobby.

Also as a few pointed out there was probably no GF, just a douchebag guy pretending he was to somehow cover his own ass.

@335iNavyGuy,
so to recap, you didn't even talk to this woman and don't even know if she is a woman, but you know she is crazy...and again, what does this have to do with the guy who ripped you off. Sounds like you just want to embellish the story for entertainment.

you must have alot of time on your hand, or are sexually frustrated. Something must be wrong and i'm just trying to pinpoint it. Care to tell us more about yourself and your insecurities?

I almost bought something for @$300 off a member here with less than 30 post, most of which were for selling stuff, no itrader rating. He gave me his paypal email and wanted me to just send the money. I told him to send me a bill stating what I am buying and for how much. He sent me a bill, but (been a while and not a paypal expert) there were two areas you can enter info. On discription, it was blank. On some irrelevant section that I am sure was not accountable is where he entered what it was. And the only way I could pay was via 'gift'. I tell him to redo it where it's not a gift and it states what I am paying for and was told that is not possible. So I didn't buy.


Is it possible for people to list what they are selling? I'd assume so since all my ebay purchases do.

The seller can definitely send you a Paypal invoice requesting payment and list in the comment section what you are buying. Don't send payment as a "gift." If you do send a payment make sure you select payment for goods. In the payment you can put in the comments section detail info of what the payment is for and there's a section to pick the shipping address.

I dunno about everyone else here but I have a couple thousand connections. Are they friends? No. Mostly business acquaintances. I get it, quality over quantity, but to have two connections, might as well put the L on the forehead.
