Escrow service. They can't deal with it. Also, a reputable escrow service. Not a random one that he may created to scam people. If you use a reputable escrow service, they won't accept it.
You can't prove that they are scammers, because they will give excuses to avoid escrow, but at least you won't lose money.

sorry for your lossThanks that's great advice.
Paid to buy eBay acc, one seller was from here, BHW
open a dispute resolution thread if you didn't make so yet
and use escrow service next time, avoid non-upgraded members and chat here instead of skype, telegram, whatsapp or whatever
Thanks bud, will do

Firstly, ensure they JrVIP. Keep all conversations on BHW.
While these will not prevent 100% of the scams, it'll reduce it. Another thing, be clear on what you want and insist on it.

See their account age, if they have active BST, check their reviews, threads.
For example, if a person is responding to 5 unique WTB/HAF threads offering 5 different services, he is a scammer or low quality service provider, often a reseller. They can turn out to exit scam at any moment.
Go with the seller who put a lot of effort in BHW, his BST and detailed responses to customers. Someone who care all the time.

Using eScrow services would be best onwards like some others mentioned.

I copy their name and see if they've ever been disputed.
I check if they've been posting helpful or valuable content around the forum.
Id also Google their name and add scam afterwards to see if they've scammed anyone on any other forums.

Don't trust him just because he has a high Reaction score, because he probably just likes to tell jokes in the lounge.

No, I'm talking about myself.
You're different. Your purpose in the lounge is to find a girlfriend.

if they are inpatient or hurrying you up
that is a red flag.
that is a red flag.
apart from using an escrow, check before if their offer is so good to be true, compare with other sellers, check that is suitable and price is according, ask to 3rd parties if they have tested its services. Btw also take care because of feedbacks on threads, they maybe from op multi acc (even though it violates BHW rules) so just try all things before doing business with someone here also, and try to start conversation inside the forum
