Explanation of the trade:
I contacted “goldfamily” privately on Discord (goldfamily150) to purchase ~185T SpawnPK. He told me to join his server to continue.

Inside that server, a ticket was opened and I was instead approached by galdfamily150. This account impersonated him, but the UID did not match.

How they scammed:
The scammer attempted to impersonate the real trader within his own Discord server by using a near-identical account. The setup was meant to trick me into sending payment to the wrong account.

Final Notes:
After being confronted, “goldfamily” sent me a screenshot claiming someone was impersonating me to deflect responsibility. This does not explain why an imposter was able to open a ticket and interact inside his own server, nor does it resolve the UID mismatch. The video evidence and logs show this was a coordinated impersonation attempt tied directly to his Discord environment.

 

@Wealth Trader, it appears that you were speaking with an imposter on a discord channel thread rather than a ticket. When a discord server is created, users have permissions to create threads and send messages on threads by default.


The discord UID of the user who was attempting to imposter @Gold Family and scam you,
(username: "galdfamily150" UID: 1089336364438409286) links to @TOP_RSPS, who is already banned on a previous report for impersonating another Sythe user. With the evidence provided there is no reason to suggest that @Gold Family was directly involved, and to the contrary, it appears that @Gold Family was the one who informed you that it was an imposter attempting to scam in the thread.

I have confirmed that @Gold Family has banned the user in question from their server and disabled the settings which allow any user to create/send messages in threads, which should eliminate this issue for their server moving forward.


If you own a discord server, it is highly advised to disable these settings to help prevent your customers from being scammed.

If you are a customer using a discord server, please be ensure to double check the discord UID of the user you are trading at every step of the trade.
