If he is a Chinese as I suspect, he won't give a damn about Escrow or PayPal or whatever we say on this forum. That part of the world has become more and more opaque, completely in a different universe of their own.

This guy is real. You can find his old casino and his steam profile etc. And he has accounts with his email address on PayPal, escrow, undeveloped, etc.

And guess what...? His casino was a Bitcoin casino and someone wrote that he's a scammer.

Well I will denounce and later sue him with it since there's obviously no other solution. Already made the decision. If other people want to join then please contact me in PM.

I scrolled through all this and don't have a clear idea of what happened.

There were two buyers? Or one? Seller appeared in this thread and said all is well? Or did seller say that the crypto payment from buyer disappeared from his wallet? How could or would that happen?

 

[dande]

Great name receiving negative publicity because of a moron.

Gambly.com could easily pull in some decent amount without blinking an eye. But look at what this guy is doing to it? I wonder if any gambling company will every stake their dollars on it again.

 

[creataweb]

His attempts at covering tracks aren’t helping his case.

 

[kite26]

I continue to not have totally clear view of the case. I hope to be clarified soon.

 

[BrunoWillis]

I'll post a very short sum-up:

I offered $150 via PM. Seller demanded $300. I agreed and posted it in the thread. I noticed that he also holds the trademark GAMBLY. I asked and he offered to either sell both together as package for $750 by bitcoin or $1,000 by Escrow. I demanded a contract then and collected some proofs. We added more things which I demanded to the contract over a period of 2 days.

Then I decided to pay $1,000 instead for security reasons and asked him to change everything to Escrow. He accepted and created an Escrow transaction. I couldn't pay this one because it was the equivalent in GBP and no credit card was therefore accepted by Escrow. He then offered to pay him €945 by Undeveloped. I checked his profile there and tried to pay. My card payment was declined.

Then I finally made the decision to pay $750 by Bitcoin. Firstly, because we spent 2 days for the contract. Secondly, because he had an escrow and undeveloped account, I could clearly track down his domain, email and other profiles, company, business activity of the past, trademark, etc. Plus he tried to get my Escrow and Undeveloped payments. So no reason to still be suspicious with all this. Well, boy was a I wrong. Obviously, some people scam out of emotion, just when they see the opportunity.

He said he didn't receive the payment, quickly deleted our signed contract from the cloud (which I saved before but he didn't know) and transferred the BTC amount away to another BTC address 40 minutes later.

In the morning, he replied from the same email address that was used for Escrow that he wouldn't have any Escrow or NamePros account and threatened me. Since that he keeps writing untrue things despite the fact that I can prove every single detail. The newest story is that the BTC reached his account but he was somehow scammed and they aren't there anymore. Also, he deactivated his LinkedIn, and he added more privacy to his Facebook account. Now you can't see his friends anymore, for instance. But I saved everything before he deleted things.

I've offered him to solve it. Else denounce and more to come. So the conclusion of the story is that people can still scam you even when they first didn't have the intention (escrow, etc) and if you have full evidence. Some people simply don't care about anything.

The BTC address and many other legal things are part of the signed contract. You can find the transaction here and see how he quickly transferred it away like a little scammer.

@Oliver Maggs, if you want to solve this in a better way for both of us, for you too, then you know how to contact me.

IMPORTANT: If everyone who made a payment to this user can please contact me, no matter if they get a refund or not, I would be thankful. Then we can take actions together.

 

[BrunoWillis]

I'd like to create an internal group "Victims of Oliver M." to pool our efforts. If you are victim of Oliver too, then please reach out to discuss the next steps. Police investigates much more likely, if there are several victims. But this can only happen if we act.

Please collect all evidence and don't be lazy. Even if it was just 200 or 300. We have to stop such people and we will.

You can find the National Fraud and Cyber Crime Reporting Centre here:
https://reporting.actionfraud.police.uk/login

Here you can see that it's very easy once you have collected all evidence. Please also report fraud attempts, not only actual frauds, both to the payment processor and authorities.

Now on flippa

Great name receiving negative publicity because of a moron.

Imho, it might not be a scam.

Too much shizstorm... for What? He s asking for only 259 usd to 1000 usd...

The amounts involved don't really make it worth the effort and bad press.

But then again, the domain itself couldn't command more value from resellers.

I guess if he wanted to do this, he should've bought something more juicy, like Gamble.com or Humper.com or somethinf... then ppl would be more apt to send x,xxx to xx,xxx in PayPal and crypto.

 

[BrunoWillis]

Jv1999, I posted enough evidence I think. Also, the Admins of NamePros checked the internal conversations, found out that he sold the same domain several times to different persons and started Fraud investigations. Plus he trashed our signed contract a few minutes after the payment. Does that sound like no scam?

 

[BrunoWillis]

Another scam report which you only find if you google for Oliver Maggs Scammer. A web designer complaining that he stole his Paypal payment after correct delivery of a logo. By the way, this domain has been offered by Oliver Maggs too.

He was trying to steal, I was sure that PayPal case will be in his favor, so I written in this way, but I was lucky and PayPal didn't accept refund for him. Action was 11 months ago. And interesting thing that he wrote me yesterday, here is screen shots:

He:

Me:

He:

 

[BrunoWillis]

It's clear what game he starts to play now. That somebody would have hacked all his accounts and committed all these frauds over 1 year lmao.

The design was made for his own website. The website CryptoRoyale.com which he also offered here last week, even in PM to me. And probably to many other people.

And as you can see, the same email contacted me yesterday and said he wouldn't have an account at NamePros or Escrow, just to send me an email a few hours later, demanding additional $250 for delivery of gambly.com. Very clever guy!

And even Escrow.com have Oliver Maggs with [email protected] which means they identified him. He sent 4 escrow transaction requests this weekend during our chat here. Jesus.

He contacted you when I told him that I would denounce him. Because he got scared about the old posts about scams on the internet, with his name. Don't delete anything.

Let's just wait for NamePros investigation conclusion and then Cybercrime reports. Somebody also mentioned that people on Steam called him scammer. If anybody knows about this, then please post it here.

 

[Darren C]

Both Gambly and CryptoRoyale were offered for sale in chat in last 48 hours .....nameservers have been changed again

 

[BrunoWillis]

This is the trademark GAMBLY, registered in his name. So it's clear he also owns gambly.com and therefore casinoroyale.com and has ordered these webdesign things. The next untrue story. I hope he will keep writing such nonsense. Then it will be easier.

 

[kite26]

I remember what happened last year. I created a portfolio website and someone hacked my credentials and sent an inappropriate e-mail to one NP member. Because of my confusion, at start i thought that the member sent it to me. When i discovered it, i said to the member that i was feeling really embarrassed. But in fact, it was not my mistake.

What i mean?

Many things could happen, maybe is someone else who acts with his name? And the real person really doesn't know?

It's an hypothesis.

 

[BrunoWillis]

No, he made too many mistakes at once in our conversations that this could be correct. Too many changes in strategy.

Also too many footprints of the past. Then somebody would have hacked ALL his accounts and websites a year ago but he didn't realize it? Including his Steam, Escrow, etc.? And that exactly when his two Bitcoin Casinos went offline? And then he demands Bitcoins from everybody here?

What he's trying to do is a typical scam artist behavior. Scamming other people and then being the victim of identity theft because he has no other excuse. Sometimes, this is true. But in this case clearly not and I will be able to prove it. I just don't want to paste every single conversation again.

Also please note that changes to his social profiles and other things happened today, immediately after the alert. These accounts are real.

Also please note that he always used everywhere his real name, even for company and casino, without need. It's his style. Normally you think it's scam when you see a real name profile. I understand this.

 

[wwwweb]

I think this guy is maybe trying to hard at online casinos, actions resemble that of a desperate gambler, looks like he is desperate to ruin his reputation for a few bucks, kind of pathetic as the heat is on, and nothing seems to add up on his end.

Now that the domain is tainted, and maybe has legal issues behind it, he has essentially just competed another fail in making the domain worthless. Who knows maybe next scam is to sell it, and claim tm infringement.

I would suggest this low life of a person maybe change his name, I would be willing to pitch in for a name change if he changes it to Oliver Maggot.

Who knows what has happened to these two Bitcoin Casinos and the players' funds. It's very strange that all information has been deleted almost and that the servers moved away.

I demanded clear guarantees from him in the contract he signed, that there are no open disputes, trademark problems or cease and desist letters because once a company called Gamblit Gaming tried to win a trademark case against him but withdrew it. He signed that there are no open issues at all, especially with this company. All these things I investigated before.

But obviously, he doesn't care about anything. That's my general impression. Feels invincible or has scammed so much that one more case isn't of importance. I'll find it out in the next days.

He keeps offering me to send him $250 more for receiving the domain, from his email [email protected]. That's also what he offered when Eric Lyon joined our private conversation thread. Incredible Besides Escrow and other services like Paypal, this email is also in his Facebook profile, and his complete family and him are active on Facebook. So impossible to pretend that someone hacked him a year ago and he just realized.

Oliver Maggs, fulfil your contract and/or return all funds you have taken to all victims immediately.

 

[Kai W.]

I think that when dealing with new members, they should be required to take the first step, whether it is to buy or sell.
After all, a member who has joined NP for 10 years and is active until now is not a fraudster.

 

[xynames]

Okay so there are (were) two buyers for gambly?
Riz M. paid with PP, and seller has agreed to refund?
BrunoWillis paid with BTC, and seller claims that the BTC was "never received' because it was transferred right out of his wallet upon landing?

Also BrunoWillis states that NamePros has determined that there were other buyers or negotiations for this domain via NP direct messages?

 

[BrunoWillis]

Eric Lyon pasted some links for their fraud team in my internal communication with Oliver Maggs. I can see at least 4 internal links. But I can't access the other ones.

 

[frostify]

I'd suggest using the Report button on the current Flippa Auction for this domain to tell them what's going on to protect others

 

[Oliver Maggs]

I will state this very simply again.

Both PayPal individuals can create cases to get their refunds. Both were pending, didn't feel safe transferring a domain at that stage.

Regarding the Bitcoin, I know the buyer is being honest that he sent it otherwise he wouldn't be that angry. So the best I could offer him was the initial deal (that I spent time to list for him) for $1000, so I would list it for $250 and it would all be done by now.

Whilst it is totally fine to accuse and talk about the situation, I have been mocked and my personal details have also been dispersed everywhere here. I have had the Bitcoin buyer email me saying he will contact members of my family.

I admit, I used a pretty niche wallet and it's likely that the wallet itself was a scam, why else would I list the site on escrow AND undeveloped if I had any intention to scam?

All buyers are more than welcome to report fraud if they so wish, I cannot do anything else but offer the above.
