I was the person who got scammed by him, being the naive person i was who is desperate to buy BTC via Paypal, i immediately followed his words and i never got my btc, i've claimed a dispute on Paypal so i'm not sure if i can get the money again. I noticed that he has more positive's trust so i believed it and got fooled.

You were that desperate to get hold of BitCoins via PayPal and then withdraw them via a BTC ATM - SIX DAYS LATER... http://archive.is/wDZXf that you'd use a known scammer?

Tbh, i'm not that desperate to withdraw the btc through atm, i'm just curious if there is any other company able to provide a btc debit card. During that time i was looking for buyer, i needed it really bad because i need to use some btc to buy something but i only have paypal. Why nobody want to help except him?

It's only your fault he is known scammer.

Try to contact paypal maybe you can reverse transaction.

I know i only have myself to blame. Already raised it with Paypal.

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not sure...

The user is full of trusted and untrusted negative ratings. Seriously OP, what did you expect would happen by dealing with a known scammer?

This is exactly what I was thinking. No duh you got scammed by someone with deep red negative trust... wtf? Why would you trust them? If you sent paypal just charge it back.

Why DavidXXXX is not getting banned?

This user always sending messages to newbies and scamming them. there is a more than 100 scam accusations against him with different accounts..

Why would he be?

Scams aren't moderated. Best he will get is red trust from some of the community members .

In case if his messages are so annoying, one can always reach out the "Report to Admin" against such messages and request for an action against such.

I'm about 90% certain you're actually Humbertin / DavidXXXX etc.

I've already archived my proof.

It'd be interesting if an admin were able to confirm if DavidXXXX has indeed deleted posts since say the 29th of March or thereabouts?

I requested he post on forum to accept deal for transparency, but after payment received he has deleted all his posts
