Got scammed - what's next?

ChoosenOne · Dec 4, 2022

So I think of myself smarter than the general average but this past week I got scammed twice on this forum.

I would like to know from you guys what is the best practice when it comes to buying from established accounts that looks legit but they take your money and disappear?

How do you weed out the bad actors?

Is there an escrow you guys use for crypto payments?

I thought I would ask here to educate the rest of the members and of course myself to avoid this in the future.

Thank you.

If you got scammed and have proof please open a thread here - https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/dispute-resolution.31/

Don't buy from members who have a yellow username.
Don't buy using third party messenger services.

Those 2 tips alone will make your life better 90% of the time.

I hope you reported both cases to the BHW Admins.

Second step should be to open a Shit List with proof so they will be banned from BHW.

I'm sorry for your loss!

First one,
Did you buy from a blue or yellow member,
Second one,

Did you research about the user you purchase the service from,

Thirdly ,open a shitlist quickly,so that this wont have to repeat itself,
And hopefully,you can get your money back,
There are no escrow services here now,but there are ways to go about it when you need get the right person for the desired services
