I'll explain how I got scammed today.
A guy added Wernis (a good and legit half wines/rares seller) on Skype and offered 1050$ for a half wine etc... a typical scammer. Then he said he was a20cellin (me) and told wernis to PM me on sythe forums. So he did it.
Meanwhile, on my msn.... A guy added me on MSN and was offering for my fury kits... I started talking with him etc... a typical scammer. Then I asked him a PM with his msn+vouches pages+ part of convo. So a pm came in my inbox - FROM WERNIS <- the real one. He pm'd me that i was talking with him on *skype* and said I was rogerbroski on skype...
SUMARY: the scammer added both of us, on skype and on msn, and lured both of us. The diff between me and wernis is that wernis has way more experience with scammers, so i really fell and thought the scammer was really wernis and so on.
I lost a fury kit.
Proof? erm, alright... here they are:
SO NOW I LEARNED. ALWAYS ASK FOR A PM WITH MSN + VOUCHES LINK + PART OF MSN CONVO.
I wish this hadn't happen, to be honest, but it did.
Idk why im posting this... i think just to ALERT people who are reading this and to do not get scammed again... If some of this info could be added in a stickied guide, would be really nice, so people would learn what scammers are capable of.
Thank you.
