Hopefully this is enough to get this guy a twc. He was extremely sketchy and I'm pretty sure he was going to chargeback/scamquit.

Scammer's profile link:
http://www.sythe.org/members/ibot4funn.388221

Explanation of the trade:
He added me on skype to buy my 07 account for $25 paypal. After requesting a PM I give him my paypal email and told him to send it as family/friends. He doesn't respond for 20 minutes and the first thing he says is that he's having issues with his paypal. Another 12 minutes later (half an hour in total) he finally sends me the $25 on paypal however it wasn't sent as family/friends so it took fees. After asking him why he told me that he's not protected and then he starts insulting me saying I'm sketchy and my vouches aren't worth anything.

How they scammed:
I didn't give him the chance to scam me, but he was extremely sketchy during the trade. Mainly the fact that he refused to send the payment in a non reversible method as requested even though I have more trust than him on sythe. Also the name/email on the paypal account that he used is different than his skype name which makes me think he's using a hacked paypal and intended to chargeback.

Other relevant trade screenshots:
If a mod/admin can pm me I can show screenshots showing his paypal email/name are different than his skype.

In short
-Overall acted extremely sketchy. Taking a long time to respond/send payment because he's having "paypal issues"
-Refuses to send the payment with a non reversible method even though I have more vouches and trust than him
-The name on his paypal is different than his skype which leads me to believe he's using a hacked paypal and intends to chargeback
-When I refuse to trade with him for my own safety he starts to insult me

Are you serious? First of all, I've sold multiple maxed accounts valued over $300 each and I've never had any issues over the years. Second of all, most of your vouches dont mean shit, they're either you going first or the trades aren't worth much. I've had a firecape service thread for almost 3 years (on 2 sites) where i've done over 300 capes with everyone going first to me, trusting me with their account, banks and always paying upfront. So please don’t tell me you have more trust than me.

Now let’s get to the point, I wanted to buy his account. We agreed on $25 and he wanted me to send as a gift and when I said I’m not protected that way he thinks I’m trying to scam him? Really? He can always recover his account back and if I send it as a gift, I can’t get my money back. I’ve made the mistake of paying as a gift once when buying an account and I will not do it again. So since I want insurance just in case he recovers the account, I’m to blame?

Lastly, you shared personal information of mine which is a bannable offence.

Bullshit post

I have almost 100 vouches and $50 donated on this website and your excuse is that you think I will scam $25? what a fucking joke. Also offsite vouches don't matter on sythe so on here I'm more trusted than you.

I've been trading online for 7 years now and I rarely have anyone refusing to send the payment as a gift. And guess what? When they refuse to send it as a gift and I give them a chance they always end up charging back on paypal. If you intend to do legitimate business it's common sense to trust whoever you want to trade with or don't trade with them at all.

The main thing that made me suspicious is that your paypal name/email is different than your skype which usually means the person is using a hacked paypal. You should be banned or given a twc until you can prove that you're the original owner of the paypal account
