Impostor Scammed

[Shell fish]

I was contacted by a guy named "proxy" on discord. Wanting to buy my 900b SPK. Said he wanted to use a MM "spearless". i agreed after asking for vouches etc.

When the trade with the MM was done they kicked me out of the groupchat and blocked me, both.

Spearless failed to send me a conformation PM. It was bad organised by him.

Please verify unique ID's. I confirmed it was me who you were talking to, but I didn't mm'ed anything.

You asked me on a private conversation to verify if it was me. I confirmed it was me who you were talking to privately. The other guy must have added a fake me. Again, please check unique Id's.

He asked me for one. I confirmed it was me who he was talking to. And I asked him to create a conversation with the three of us to carry the trade.

I've never confimed I was in any group to do the trade. Just that it was me who he was talking to.

Due to this terrible conformation pm I lost 900b spawnpk. How are we going to fix this ?

No. Don't put it on me. You asked if you were talking to me. I told you it was me indeed. But I've never confirmed I was talking on a three way conversation. I just confirmed it was me who you were talking to. That's why I said make a conversation.

You got sadly scammed by an imposter.Again, I confirmed it was me who you were talking to. But definetly it wasn't me the guy on that conversation. As I said, please pull unique ID's.

This isn't a valid reason since it appears you were also talking to an impostor; notice his discord is in lowercase while the one you were speaking to is in uppercase. This is a common scam known as a man-in-the-middle scam.
The best way to prevent it is to request a proper confirmation PM and verify everything's correct.

I've issued @spearless with a TWC due to a bad PM that resulted in a successful impostor scam. You may dispute it in 30 days here: Dispute a Ban or TWC

Sorry for your loss @Shell fish it's important to only proceed with the trade if the confirmation PM is properly done and has correct information.
