Please describe the reason for submitting a Dispute, in detail.
On February 1, 2025, around 12:00 AM, I contacted @R3KT to purchase Figma and Envato subscriptions. During our conversation, he offered to include Google Gemini Ultra, bringing the total to approximately $150-160, which I agreed to and paid.
I had previously completed a successful transaction with this seller and trusted him due to his VIP status on this platform.
Timeline of events:

1 hour after payment: I asked for an update on delivery. He replied that there was "a certain process" involved.
~8 hours after payment: I messaged him again. No response.
I then posted warnings on his profile and sales thread to alert others.
He eventually messaged me saying he had just woken up. I explained my concerns.
~18-24 hours after payment: Still no delivery, no response, and he blocked me on Telegram.

I am not the only victim. At least two other buyers have also been scammed: one for $300+ and another for $150.
I have screenshots of our full conversation, payment proof, and evidence of being blocked.
I am requesting a full refund and appropriate action against this seller.

Please detail exactly how you have tried to resolve your issue before now.
How I tried to resolve this issue:

1 hour after payment: I politely messaged the seller asking for a delivery update. He said there was a process involved.
8 hours after payment: I followed up again via Telegram. No response.
Posted on his profile and sales thread: I left comments to get his attention and warn others.
When he responded: He claimed he had been asleep. I explained my concerns and asked for either the delivery or a refund.
18-24 hours after payment: Still no delivery or refund. He stopped responding entirely and blocked me on Telegram, cutting off all communication.

I made multiple good-faith attempts to resolve this directly with the seller before filing this dispute. He chose to ignore me and block me instead of fulfilling the order or issuing a refund.

What kind of outcome are you looking for from this Dispute?
I am seeking a full refund of the amount I paid ($150-160). Additionally, I request that appropriate action be taken against this seller to prevent further scams, as other buyers have also been victimized.
