    He scammed me out of $35, which sucks since I'm still in high school and only make minimum wage. This is hard earned money for me! Already have a dispute on paypal, I just have to wait 1 week before I can elevated it to a paypal claim. I'm not the only person he scammed recently! He also scammed psmsoftware and SongFusion. Beware, don't sell or buy ANYTHING from him.

    Emails: ;
    Paypal: ;
    DigitalPoint Username: iTunes

    -First he'll say how he wants to receive the money first.
    -He'll explain how he can't afford to be scammed again and really can't trust anyone.
    -After you send payment, he'll block all communication from you. Stops replying to PMs, blocks you on Gtalk, etc.

    SongFusion and I currently both have paypal disputes against him, so I'm hoping for the best.

    Just want to +1 this thread. I have never been scammed before, he seemed really genuine and sounded like he knew what he was talking about. He scammed me out of $40. The only reason I joined this site was to get the script he was supposedly "selling" me.

    After looking through google for about 5minutes with the minimal information I have on him, I have uncovered:

    His name is Jay (jamie) gould, he is 17, he goes to Worcester 6th Form in the UK and he thinks he's a beatboxer...

    Clearly he hasn't thought this at all through and that paypal F this kid over and give our money back. Since the scams he has disabled the comment box on his profile wall too.

    I can confirm that this user attempted to scam me, but thanks to this thread I won't be contacting him anymore.

    This is the guy http://forums.digitalpoint.com/member.php?u=377999, get as much info as you can about him and go beat his ass, also burn his hands or something.

    Here is some info I gathered:

    Jamie Gould

    12 Tagwell Grange
    Droitwich
    WR5 7FD
    United Kingdom


    Have fun :)

    I don't know about the UK, but here in the US providing someone's address and encouraging others to commit violent crimes against that person is against the law - and rightly so.

    There he goes again, do you think I care about the law? Just go confront that b**** and get your money, I've done it and I'm still fine.

    I just want to let everyone know this guy is a SCAMMER.
    I was interested in a script he was selling, he was replying to every message i sent him until i sent him the payment.
    Then, he disappeared. He stopped replying to messages and of course he never sent me the script.

    BE WARNED! He seems legit, but he is not.
    If you have been scammed by him, open a dispute on paypal as soon as possible. good luck.
