Impostor scammed

[Tom platz]

Scammer's profile link: EliteHanzo#4781

Explanation of the trade: I made a post about if anybody could make an rsps script for me he added me and told me he could told me his price, gave me reassuring using previous vouches, I believed sent him the money he stalled me for abit and then deleted me, I know I won’t be getting a refund but I feel it’s important nobody else falls for this especially when he used his old vouches as a method to scam people.

Amount scammed: 80$AUD

How they scammed: Told me he would make a bot script for me and didn’t follow through once I paid


Proof that it's their Discord:

I was just about to buy 3x zulrah accounts from him. I'll wait and see what comes of this.

EDIT:

The elitehanzo I've been talking to has a unique id: 613799081185247245

That seems to be different than what is listed here on sythe. There is definitely an imposter rolling around scamming people. There are a bunch of reports of imposter elitehanzo's scamming people.

I just talked to him again. He gave me his paypal email: jonathanlopez(few #s here)@gmail.com

I told him to confirm his pm here and he removed the paypal email and immediately blocked me.

That was the same one he sent me. Hopefully the mods here know a way we can report him to paypal, or get his account out in the open so people know not to deal with him. He's got a bunch of scammer reports against him.

So this scammer was referred to me by TwitterJess, aka Bangalore, who I see is now banned. Looks like it might be the same person.

Sorry, unfortunately you were imposter scammed, did you try to contact, or receive a DM from @EliteHanzo here on sythe?

Imposter scammed. I don't even have any posts about scripts or vouches related.

Yea this was the Imposter who scammed me too, always ask for a confirmation pm on sythe and never forget to check discord UID.
If this transaction was made by PP you should try to chargeback as you got Buyers Protection

@Tom platz
Sorry for your loss, it seems you were impostor scammed. Please go through the following to better protect yourself:

1.) ALWAYS request a sythe PM before every trade to make sure you're talking to the correct person. A correct PM should look like this: https://i.imgur.com/hhosthY.png
2.) Discord Impostors almost always have nitro, which allows them to change their Discord Discrims (#) to copy legitimate users.
3.) Discord names and # can be copied but Discord UIDs can't be! Please always double check this. Go into Discord settings > turn developer mode ON, right click and copy ID. Explained here: Discord PM Template
4.) How to Identify & Avoid Being Scammed on Discord [Guide] Guide to familiarise yourself with all the Discord scams
