Title: PROMINENT VENDOR WHO I BELIEVE I A PROVESSIONAL SCAMMER * Important
Post by: jman on July 18, 2012, 07:16 pm
OK, to start I have 15+ successful transactions with no refunds. I never get asked to FE. Recently, a vendor after 5 days requested that I FE (already a red flag). I reluctant did so, although I immediately regretted it because afterword I went back in and looked and there was a lot of negative feedback. Could he be buying product from himself under a fake buyer name to get some good reviews mixed in with but exists soley as a SCAMMER. I believe that is the case. After FE, he has ignored my past 3 messages for status update and it has been over a week since FE, about 18 days since I placed the initial order.

Any recourse other than changing feedback to a 1? People like him need to be stopped. Any advice, suggestions would be appreciated. I am giving him another day or two before I blow up the forums with SCAM ALERT posts.

Sadly you gave up main your resource to use against the vendor by finalizing early, hopefully this is a lesson learned

I always back out of deals offered but with the dreaded words MUST FE added to the deal.

Got a deal lined up buy see FE demands - will contact the vendor to point out I have like a million transactions (I spent enough coin and got a 2% no show stat off some hash vendor who sent out nothing!

Anyhow, who is the vendor?

I think a few do selective scams.

So do some buyers.

This is drugs after aLL.
