[CommunityDiscussion] Most Money You've Lost on a Scam or a Seized/Lost Pack?

I've only ever been scammed once. Unsurprisingly, it was on SR2. I had made a few big orders from this vendor (honestly forget his name) which were successful and had some of the best stealth I've ever seen. He went on vacation mode for a while and then came back with a huge "return sale" that ended up being a big exit scam. I only lost $50 so I counted myself lucky since others had lost upwards of a grand. That was enough to teach me the value of Escrow.

Another time I ordered a gram of PlatinumStandard's Cocaine. Given the guy's amazing feedback and reputation I had no problem shelling out $180 for the gram. It never showed up. I'm pretty sure this was a mistake on my end, since I had it sent to a private mailbox I had bought and might have screwed up the address or number or something. I was pretty shook when it didn't show up, but two weeks went by and nothing ever came. I took that as a sign to not renew my rental and chalk it up as a loss. I had a friend that was gonna split the gram with me and paid for half of it, so I had to spend another $180 for a ball of mediocre street coke that weekend. Sucks to suck, I guess.

Somewhere between 13-20k during the SR1 seizure. It was in the upper tier of that range.

Before that, about $1500 on a dispute on BMR when that was a few months old. Dude provided tracking but I couldn't prove it was the wrong address because PGP encryption. Mods gave me 75% and him 25%. I got nothing and that was the first time I learned a lesson about padded feedback and being careful about whom you choose to conduct business with.

I think $60 from RCI... after a few hundred transactions with many vendors it was bound to happen.

It's amazing what reading reviews / researching and NOT FE'ING will do...

I had 700$ stolen from me by Bungee54. I sent money to their website wallet the night of November 5th to take advantage of their discounted product. They took their website down before my order could be place. I tried contacting them via email and Evo but they ignored my messages. I implore all of you to not trust them if they ever return.

i had a 2g pack of mdma from canada go missing during onymous. so... like, $90 would be the biggest? i've lost out on a few of those free sample "just pay the shipping" sort of things with new vendors as well. but, in practice, i generally expect nothing to come of those and consider it a surprise when small amounts of really cheap drugs actually do show up in my mailbox.

i had several orders in within a week of onymous. and all the sites getting seized. because even tho i am positive almost all my orders said either received. some even said shipped. like a total of $6500 i only received 3. of a total of 14 orders and not one of the vendors were willing to do any thing about it. i mean one said if i put in another order he would give me a good deal. so my stupid ass puts in another order with this vendor. and needless to say i didn't get a good deal. not at all i did end up receiving a package. that i believe was supposed to have been my first order from him. except for the fact that it was the wrong product. i had ordered 15 grams of heroin. and what i received almost 4 months late. was 10 grams of hash. then i tell him this and he says he will reship me 4 grams of H. well i end up receiving 2 and 1/2 grams of more hash from him supposedly there is another 2 grams of h coming but i am not holding my breath and not one of the other vendors were willing to honor my orders from the the sites that got seized i mean if it weren't for the fact that most of them said received it wouldn't matter so much but knowing they got my money but just found it convenient that since there was no proof of the order they all just said oh he is probablyjust trying to get over on em any way sorry about that long unorganized rant
