Scammed for a GMB by Stephan - $300

Hi everyone,

I purchased a verified GMB from @stephan here - https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/gmb-verification-services-without-postcard.1349404/#post-14627727
I requested me fill out a form and send him $300 via Crypto
After filling out the form I realized he took Paypal from the ad on the post and sent him $300 via Paypal
He said he did not want Paypal and refunded me $284 - I was confused at why he kept the $16 - I thought maybe it was Paypal fees
He was pushing me to pay crypto which I negotiated $150 deposit and $150 on delivery
I went on and sent him $150 (crypto)
After a few hours he delivered the GMB - which had multiple things wrong with it (website and name was wrong) and gave me access via my email
I requested him to fix the items and he stopped replying on Skype
After a few hours my access got removed. I msged him on Skype and (DM Black Hat Convo) and told him to fix
On (DM Black Hat Convo) he plays dumb and asked if I am someone else - Regional Warrior [BHW] (AGlobalSeo)
I give him every chance to fix and he ends up refunding me the $16 and goes I fully refunded you on the forum
He than sends me a clone chat copy of him and Regional Warrior [BHW] (AGlobalSeo) to show I was not replying on Skype LOL - this was totally fake and its him talking to himself/associate
I end up talking to him on Skype and he requests for a extra $50 to deliver the GMB. I say no and he admits he did all this for the extra $50 , but will not give me access unless I give a extra $50 - at this point how can I trust him to even do so
He says he will refund me but needs to wait for "admin"

If you have any question ask me . i will explain it

I never ask crypto . He telling lie with fake chat proof

Thanks

yes you refunded me on Paypal and took payment in crypto
Here is the proof of the 2 payments of $150 USDT
Look everyone I know I lost the $300 USDT ( i doubt I will get this back)
I just dont want anyone else to get ripped off by @stephan . He gave me the GMB and took it back. You can see my last screen of him admitting he wanted the extra $50 and that is why he made that action. The GMB is not suspended. I have zero interest in sabotaging Stephan in this forum. I am looking for solid GMB seller that is honest and sharing my experience with Stephan. I have no reason to lie.

You got refunded.... he does not owe you anything past that unless I am missing something.

I paid him in Paypal
He instantly refunded me $300 in Paypal and said NO to paypal
Than asked me to pay $300 in USDT (crypto)
He scammed me for the crypto payment
You can see in my post just above this the 2 times he asked me for 150 USDT = 300 USDT which I paid and shared the proof

Dear Mod

No he telling lie. I never ask crypto payment . he using some software and make the fake skype chat

Edited video out for privacy.

Please see attached video
You will see I slow down in the video when he asked me for Crypto and there is proof oy my transaction from him as well in the images

Here is the conversation I had with you on Skype:

You got scammed by someone who impersonated me or you are trying to loop me into shitlist for some shitty reason.

I never had an avatar in my Skype (that’s how it is for the last 10 years. Your Skype recording had an avatar which is my BHW profile pic. There could be someone who is impersonating me and scammed you

I am ready to provide MOD access to my Skype, PayPal and BHW via team viewer to verify it personally. I am running services successfully in BHW for more than 10 years. I do not have a need to scam $300.

I am also willing to donate $300 to BHW to prove this point but I cannot pay a scammer nor I do accept any wrong doing.

I also got a ‘-‘ve itrader from a new account yesterday and I also got a lot of shitty messages in my thread from new accounts in the past which I reported and thankfully the MODs removed it.

I suspect a foul play from someone to pull down my services here at BHW which I do for more than 10 years. With a lot of happy clients As I already mentioned If $300 is the problem I am willing to donate $300 to BHW or for any other larger cause which the MODs suggest.

Just to add one more point here: My TOS clearly says, there will be no refund. You admitted that I already delivered what you paid for. But yet, I did a refund in this case. Technically you do not have any right to create this thread if you follow my TOS (Even if you paid via BTC). However, I do not want to highlight this and escape because, I want to fight it out. I haven’t done any mistake. I will abide by whatever the MODs suggest

However you controlled the paypal account from your own AD so that is what gave this whole thing away.
I sent you paypal and you were able to refund it that means I was talking to the REAL you.
You immediately asked me for CRYPTO after the refund from your OWN paypal account - this shows your real intent in my opinion and that it was the REAL YOU

You also said 2 months warranty and the GMB is down and you never recovered it
You also wrote you did all this for the extra $50
I am following the evidence the money trail and the evidence. Who lost here and who gained.

You gained $300 USDT
I gained nothing. You have motive to >> gain money
I wanted a GMB I got nothing
I have zero motive to put you on shitlist - I could care less about this $300 - I simply want a service and I have been purchasing multiple services from this forum and everyone that has worked with me knows I pay.

End of the day this doesnt change my life - I want a honest place to do business like everyone else. Whatever you guys decide I am good with it. @BassTrackerBoats
