Edgar 1809 scammed me for 500 USD

[Sharad Sharma]

Hi,

I was scammed for 500 USD by user "Edgar 1809"...this guy said he will give me 4 aged bing ads accounts for 500 USD...when I asked him to show the accounts on teamviewer he said he is having problems installing Teamviewer then he sent me a screenshot of a bing account and said others 3 accounts are also same...so I asked him to take the payment from paypal....
he gave me his paypal id and I transferred the payment to him...within one minute he refunded the amount saying that paypal has restricted his account and he would not be able to withdraw this payment.
Then he asked me to make the payment through Bitcoin...I was getting suspicious but I trusted him and transferred 500 USD through Bitcoin and then he stopped replying...he went offline on skype and just vanished.

I want this guy to be banned from any activity on BHW so that he would not be able to scam others.

You will need to provide screenshots of all events from the beginning to the end in here so we can move forward please.

Kindly find attached the screenshots of the conversation that I had with Edgar 1809

After all my years on blackhatworld I still do not understand why people send money to random strangers with absolutely no history of trading.

What makes it even worse is when the amount of money is quite substantial. Ok $500 isn't life changing but it's still a lot of money so why the hell would anyone send that much to a random stranger who you have no prior knowledge of?

Even when I buy something online from a legitimate website that has clearly been around for a while I still do my due diligence and thoroughly check the background of the site before parting with hard cash. Even on ebay where I am pretty much guaranteed a refund if things go wrong I will check, double check and then check again because I just don't want or need the hassle.

All I can say is some of you newbies must have more money than sense!!!!

I completely understand the point that you are trying to make and I will comply by the rules of BHW going forward.... However When your work is stopped from last 2 months and you have a team of 20 people waiting to get their salary then you tend to take risks which in my opinion is completely fair...some risks do get paid off and some risks do not work. That is how I do business and it has been working pretty well for me from last 5 years. I just wanted to inform BHW about this person so he would not be able to scam others.

Buy from someone that is not allowed to sell here again and you'll face stiff consequences.

Your "risks" as to buying from someone who is not allowed to sell here will not be tolerated.

I have already said it that I will comply by the rules of BHW going forward. I will take other risks which will be beneficial for my business. Thanks

@BassTrackerBoats Can I just point cruical things about how people like @Sharad Sharma (don't get offended please buddy) can be?

1. Buying from Non. Jr. Vip with 20 posts
2. Sending money to proton mail (wtf dude)
3. They got limited (which is the first sign that they are complete scammers)
4. They ask you for BTC only

I mean, you say you are in the business for 5 years and you got scammed like this? Even rookie who is 4 months in the game can spot how scammy this actually is.
