Scammed by Edgar Bermudez

[Anchorite]

Scammer's profile link: Edgar Bermudez

Amount scammed: Anchorite

Discord ID + Unique Discord ID: lord_kakapo, 1017298648960344105

Proof that it's their Discord: imgur.com (third image)

Explanation of the trade: They strung me along, waited for the BTC transfer to confirm, and then blocked me. I did not do my due diligence because I am new to this forum. They dm'ed me first I believe, but they said they would dm me from Edgar and showed they owned the Scythe account. So I think their vouches are fake possibly.

How they scammed: Using either impersonation or fake vouches to coerce me into a trade

Other relevant trade screenshots: Everything is in the original imgur link

On further consideration, it seems like they may have been impersonating Edgar Bermudez. Can someone with forum experience check this for me

Hello good evening, I just saw this message, but I have no relationship with the person they are talking about, I have not made any trades, and I only use my own discord to talk, I don't know if it is possible to create images like this from another profile.

Update: He blocked me on Scythe. He also responded in a dm using the similar grammatical mistakes he made over Discord. Seems pretty clear he did scam me. (Updated Imgur with another screenshot)
