It's a big sum to pay for an easy lection like that.

Another address depositing into that CloudBet.com address is 1DaYruabXne1kwqreJPgonLbDfvgQ8ACb8 (Transaction here).
That address is also mentioned in a scam accusation against bitcoinelectronics.net, yet again involving GiftCards.

What does all these mean? Is he actively scamming more people with Alts?

Anyway, it may look like a big sum for that lesson, but there are some genuine GCs sellers here. Buying GCs here is like going to a Casino. The fact that you can sometime "Win" keeps people coming back for more. I was able to made some successful trades on some GCs. The amount I was able to save before was bigger than the amount I just lost. So, my lost is not so bad after all. Hopefully, I will actually learn from this.

Alaki sends that Wallet Address 1DaYruabXne1kwqreJPgonLbDfvgQ8ACb8 funds today - details here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14720640

OP there's not much you can do to recover your funds, but there's hopefully still an outside shot of doing so. Did you check this moron's feedback before doing the deal? There are some serious red flags in there that should have made you think twice. Also even though his account is 3 years old, who knows if it's been sold or whatever. He's still a Jr. member and is not very active on this forum.

Be more careful in the future--turn on the paranoia hat when you deal with people here, it may save you some bitcoin.

Hi guys I traced down the address that I sent the payment to and it was a user on Bitcointalk named AmazonCards. That user scammed me for a $50 Amazon.com code I was purchasing so $25 and it never got delivered.

Pulled almost the same stunt 4 times. I wonder how many more will pop up in the future.

When someone sells you something for half the price, you guys should already know that its a scam. Why on earth would someone sell a 100$ gc for 50$ ? *facepalm*
Greed blinds people. Live and learn.

That's what I was referring to, when I was talking about "leaving out on those deals you can safe too big, for obvious reasons"

The origin of "brave" evolved from "savage".

I lost $30 to this guy as well... He has been texting me for two days with various excuses as to why he has not sent my giftcard yet.

Besides those who intend to scam you and those who are selling you GC without proper explanation of how they aquired them, that might be a pretty small group.

You are definitely right about this. Only a pretty small group is legit.

Maybe one lesson could be not to buy GCs without proper reciept, and leaving out on those deals you can safe too big, for obvious reasons.

This is actually something that I don't quite understand. If someone carded some Giftcards illegally, wouldn't they still have the receipts for the transactions? How would a receipt help in this case? It is not like there is somewhere I can look up the credit card he used to buy the GC is a stolen credit card or not.

Secondly, if someone received some GCs as gifts, lets say over Christmas. Wouldn't they be the ones that not able to provide receipts?

Leaving out on deals that I can save too big is definitely a good advice.

What happened:: Electronics4BTC advertised he had various GCs for sale including Amazon and his account is 3 years old. Another user posted a report of sucessfully bought a $100 amazon from him. I then purchased an $100 amazon gc for $50, then the seller said he only had two $200 amazon GC's in stock, but no $100 GC. He said he can refund or I can send him an addition $40 for a $200 instead. I sent him an additional $40, then the seller closed the thread and erased his advertisement and stopped responding to my PM's.
