    Got scammed, what now?

    Pardon me if this is in the wrong section.I just got scammed out of all my money by buying a name. I thought he was a trusted seller but turns out he wasn't :(. He won't reply to my PMs after I paid him. Is there anyway I can get him banned?

    Take screenshots of the conversation, him ignoring your PMs, his e-mail matching the conversation and additional proof. With all these, you are capable of getting him banned. If you do not have any proof, then there is no way on getting him banned. <--- This sucks.

    If you need any other tips, add [email protected]. I can guide you till my limits.

    If you have the proof:

    Make a report in the RaS section. There should be a sticky for a proper template, and remember you have to screenshot picture of the actual conversation or he will remain unbanned.
    RaS section is here

    If you have MSN plus you can look at old conversations and take a picture of the Conversation & report him.

    Have pics ready of when you sent the money, and who you sent them to. Make sure you have pics that match up his Sythe account with the person who you sent the money to. Also, a few pics of the PMs you sent him, and no replies back.

    Just gather up all the necessary details such as his forums account name, evidence such as pictures proving you paid him, etc. and report it on the RaS section following the sticky template.

    Evidence can be easily obtained from MSN Conversations, pictures on sent and received items on Sythe Offsite, etc.

    I hope your at least able to get the scammer banned, sorry for your losses :(

    10 vouches is nothing. I have 30+ and no one will ever go first to me. Only go first to 50+ vouches.

    Sorry for the loss. If you have sufficient proof you can always post a scam report. If not, just make a gold-farming army and run it 24/7 to make cash.
