Got scammed by sbul87

He contacted me on pm that he has aws accounts for sale. I paid for 30 accounts and he has since refused to send the account details or refund my bitcoin to me.

It has been more than 48 hours and the accused has not been on BHW + it was the weekend and I don't do a whole lot of heavy lifting on the weekend.

I'm allowing more time based on those two factors.

@sbul87 has been banned.

Im not sure if this is appropriate comment, but i have huge experience with scammers and various types of crooks. The first sure sign of him being shady is him calling you BUDDY every goddamn message. He is not your buddy, who the fuck are you to him. Its textbook example of reaction-formation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_formation

he, as scammer is afraid/nervous that you will read his intention, and acts as opposite of enemy -> he acts as a friend with huge exaggeration.

This is major red flag.

Im not trying to sound like smartass, but to point out something that might be obvious to some people, but it is not to honest straight people who don't have such life experience. OP, im not salting your wounds here.

Another red flag is raising stakes. When someone is owing you money you don't lend him more money, no matter how convincing or believable story is. Lots of scams work because of some imaginary promised angle - in this case quantity discount.

this idiot scammed me too.. his name is karthik and on Skype his name is sbulmart he's a professional scam artist. stay away from him and any other indian agency for that matter. unless come with good referrals or you have some way to hold them liable then DO NOT deal with them. they will say all the right things and see asking you to send more money and have tons of excuses but they are just frauds

he said he had a ad words account that had a credit balance on it of 4k which was credited back from google from a previous client. he even screen shared and showed me the accounts billing thresh of $2500. at the end he was just a crook
