Topic: Just got scammed by a "Legendary" member ! - page 3. (Read 1298 times)

There are some who scammed for alot less. Its always wise to use escrow in such a situation. You most likely wont see anything back from this user but as for future reference, use an escrow. There are many who are trusted here.

of course i checked the negative reviews ! . it was only from "Lauda" and i did read why did Lauda gave him that negative feed back. it didn't make sense. also after checking Lauda's reviews i found Ognasty ( a member that i highly trust) accusing Lauda for a lot of things so i assumed that her review is irrelavent. i also didn't think that someone with a legendary rank would scam someone for 150$ . anyway this is more of a warning for others rather than me complaining !

Red trust is a big no no buddy. Never deal with anybody who has red trust from DT member(s).
You need to learn the hard way, just be thankful it wasn’t for a lot more money.

I’ve seen dozens of horror stories on here with people losing over 100 bitcoin’s.

Yeah, this is the first thing you should watch out for. Never ever trust anyone with -2 trust (in extremely small cases you possibly can), however you should have protected yourself with an escrow. While it costs, it should give you protection to some degree.

you are blind friend or what
you do not see the Warning -2 in red who want to say flee as you can

** after about 3 months stingers showed up , paid my money back.


Ok so just to clarify things to everyone here. I would like to report that "stingers" paid back the money "150$" that i sent to him. he texted me on telegram as well as on this forum explaining to me that had his own reasons and asked for my forgiveness.

now regardless of  his intentions or story of why he stopped replying. I do appreciate that he finally came and talked to me and of course paid my money back.

so from my side the problem has been solved and i do forgive him for what happened. i will also delete my negative feedback on his trust page.

 but again this is a lesson learned , never deal with anybody without escrow.

thanks to everybody for supporting my case and thanks for keeping this forum as safe as possible.


Mikey.


so this "stingers" guy who is supposedly a "Legendary" member who has been around for years scammed me for  150$ ! !

I am not blaming anyone but myself  ! but really with the reviews he got and his rank the last thing i'd think that he would scam someone for 150$ ! i mean with this kinda profile you can be trusted much more easily than a newbie or a member account you can make a good amount of money just trading digital goods !.



so this is his message on bitcointalk after he texted me on telegram " in response to my WTB topic " > https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.39987328




this is a proof that he is the same guy on telegram " same wallet address"



this is a proof that i sent 0.02402 BTC (150$ at the time of transaction) to the same wallet

this is the first lame excuse of why he didn't send the coupons






he was online on the forum after he my message was sent and NO REPLY





he then just blocked me on  telegram !





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if needs be i can provide one of the mods/admins with my bitmain account login details so they can confirm that i have not received any coupons from this guy !!

and after all 150$ is not a big deal !  but I am only  hoping that some of the very trusted especially those with default trust would leave negative reviews on this so called " "Legendary" who is generally abusing the positive feedback he got as well as his rank so that others won't get scammed by him.


Finally my last message to all scammers all the way from ""Legendary" to newbies  " There is lotsa CLEAN money that can be made on the internet,it's probably less tiring than your scamming business if you would spend a little time on the things that matter instead of looking for people to scam"
