Hello everyone,
It's very unfortunate to happen with anyone and yesterday it happened to me. The user @TjKiller using [email protected] as PayPal email ID scammed me of $1,000. I'll share the details below:
Attached are the screenshots of all the messages and payment snapshots exchanged between myself, the seller and the moderator(s) @Alfa Mod Team @Echo Mod Team of NamePros. But I'll try to keep it short and simple to understand what exactly has happened so far. Also attached are snapshots of the dispute opened with PayPal and the messages exchanged there as well.
So how it all started was that this guy named Tiago Silva @TjKiller ([email protected]) out of nowhere asked for a loan of €1,000 through a private message. I told him that it would be good if we may have some domain deal which will help him. He sent a few domains which I didn't like except the one IGAM.com for which he asked €2,000. I offered him $1,000 to which he finally agreed. Usually I inform the sellers that I'll be paying via PayPal and expect them to transfer the domain first. Since I agreed to pay via PayPal but he told me to transfer the money first. I was all the time hesitant to transfer money at first because of the abusive language used by him every now and then. I asked the moderator if I shouldn't proceed further but I was made aware that I'll be getting some warning or negative feedback/points from NamePros moderators which I never wanted to risk having. I even asked to use an escrow service which he categorically denied. I know there were several signs of potential fraud to happen but just because I didn't want to risk my reputation, I went ahead and made the payment via PayPal.
I provided my GoDaddy account details and he denied transferring the domain saying there is some error coming. I told him to try again and/or call GoDaddy support to help you in transferring the domain. Instead of that, he said that I've refunded the money back. As of writing this message, it's going to be 12 hours since I'm waiting for the domain or money to be received.
He attached the snapshot showing money refunded which I now believe is fake because I paid via my PayPal balance and the refund back to PayPal balance usually takes place in minutes at maximum per my experience.
In the entire communication I've shared (unedited except account details, PayPal transaction ID, etc.), one can notice how abusive, disgraceful and racist language is used against me.
Some of the excerpts from his messages:
"You are worst than a woman"
"But dealing with Abdul is unbearable
He accuses me of not respecting the agreement when he is the one who does not respect it"
"And he's suspicious like everything, what a despicable human being"
"If you want to screw me, it's up to you and your conscience"
"You are already making me sick
Behave like a man"
"My name is clean, the dung that is accusing me me should be ashamed"
"I send you the money *Please paypal review this* You Abdul, are a mean and disgusting hunan being"
"How can you say I didn't send your money? You scumbag, piece of shit"
"You have my domain and my money Congratz for you I hope you sleep well at night"
"I will find you. Even if I have to chase you to India. And then, I will rip your head off."
"Just to leave a note: *Pakistani peace of shit"
It's quite obvious now that this person did fraud with me and ran away with my $1,000. I've opened a dispute with PayPal and will see how they can assist in this regard.
It would be nice of someone to share their experience and the best way to get my money back whether here or through PM/DM.
Thank you!
