Lukebabs - Scammer

Valstone · Jul 7, 2013

Hi

Last night I attempted to purchase a Runescape 07 account from sythe member "lukebabs".

Here is his profile link:
http://www.sythe.org/members/359909-lukebabs.html

I will be posting screenshots of our "trade". If you can even call it a trade... :/

To be honest I really didn't think he would scam me... So I may not have enough proof to prove him a scammer. Though he did scam me all bets aside. But I am going to try my best. At the least this report will be out to let others know there is question when trading with him.

The breakdown of this trade...

Awhile ago he posted in my thread where I was trying to buy a classic account here:
http://www.sythe.org/runescape-2007...-w-dt-high-total-level-100-150-usd-spend.html

He posted saying this:

Then I thought that account sounded pretty good, so I PM'd him back. Here is a screenshot of our PMs:

I'm going to admit that in this trade I could have been more secure. I asked him many times if he wanted to use an OMM. I would be fine with that as long as I didn't have to pay for it all. But he said it was fine, how about we split trade. I usually split trade without problems, so I aggreed to that. I thought that we actaully trusted eachother, well I atleast trusted him... So this is how our "trade" worked last night.

I sold my $50 Amazon Gift Card to Busta305 via skype for 10.6M 07 RSGP
Lukebabs/Austin said he wanted 22M about for the account, but it was OK if I paid him 10.6M now and another 10.6M after I sell another one of my giftcards. He said he only needed 10.6M now and would give me all the details to the account after we split trade.

So after Busta305 paid me the 10.6M for the $50 Amazon Gift card, I told him I got the money and was ready to split trade.

We argued a bit over how to split trade (I didn't want to go first, even in the split trade, since I was more trusted) I also thought I trusted him, like I said... It didn't seem like a shady deal to me. But we finally settled on me giving 8M first, and then he would give me the account details and I would give him the other 2M afterwards.

What basically happened next was I gave him 8M and he says "I'm sorry" on skype and then removes me and logs off after he takes my 8M...

I have screenshots from skype which I will post right below:

These next screenshots prove I am talking to lukebabs on skype and that lukebabbit is his skype, which is who I am talking to in the screenshots:

Here are more pictures of our skype conversation and one of him saying directly
"[7/6/2013 9:42:57 PM] austin bridgman: Lets do it quick i give u log in u so ok, then give me 10m, then I give u all recovs/email"

The account he was "selling" me originally belonged to the sythe member "Yugi"
http://www.sythe.org/members/67640-yugi.html

And on skype his name is loldeluxo.
He sold the account lukebabs was selling to me for $50 a bit ago. That sale is in their vouches I believe.

I originally contacted him to ask him about how trustworthy of a guy lukebabs/austin was. But he accepted my skype request after the trade, so it didn't do me much good.

Here is a picture of us talking or whatever: (he said he was going to post in this thread as well when he wakes up)

This is the end of my scam report. If anyone needs any other pictures for proof, and I can screenshot them from our skype chat... I will post them, just let me know.

I have put a lot of work into this scam report to at the least I'd like to hope someone could read it :/ I do realize that, like most of the other scam reports I've made I'm probably not even going to get my RSGP back, or the actual account, or anything. If Lukebabs wants to own up to this or whatever, I'd take back the GP back that I sold my amazon giftcard for. But let's face it, the likelyhood of that happening isn't much. If this isn't even enough to get him banned, I understand. I'm not out to get people banned anyways. To tell you the truth I hate making these scam reports, it's so much hate And I'm not out for all that hate haha... But at the least in doing this I will ask EVERYONE:

Please BE WARY to trade with Lukebabs! He seemed very trustworthy, yet scammed me out of 8M and an account I really wanted and would have enjoyed : ((

Thank you for reading my scam report. Feel free to add me on skype, or PM me for any questions about this trade.
