Problem with one of DP members

    I am not sure this is the right forum for this message so please move it as appropriate.

    Yesterday, I asked for a money exchange from Moneybookers to Paypal, and indeed I have received an offer from one of the members here. I have sent him the money via Moneybookers, and the transaction was processed successfully and the amount was debited from my account. First, the DP member said that he didn't receive any payment (MB payments take less than one minute to arrive), then later on he said that he received it and he is waiting for his boss to pay him so that he can pay via Paypal. Today I have contacted him again and he said the he denied receiving my payment via MB although he confirmed it yesterday!! I am really suspicious about this person and I believe I was robbed.
    Today I have contacted Moneybookers and they have confirmed that the member had indeed received the payment and that it was credited to his account.

    Can you please tell me what can I do now in order to get my money back?

    Thank you

    Thank you Nick, I already contacted MB and they have told me that the user had received the payment and that there's nothing wrong with it. I believe that he had indeed received it and he is denying that to keep the money to himself.

    Always never Exchange with Newbies :(

    I also had a very bad experience.

    REPORT to some MOD about him, He should be banned if he had done anything like that.

    Yesterday he said: "ok I got it. will msg you once paypal is sent. my employer still didnt send me my paypal so am still waiting. can you wait?"

    so I pmed him today "Man where did you go? you can't just take the money and leave me waiting, I need to pay this guy it's urgent. If you just cant make it just give me back my money and i'll find someone else."

    he replied "I didnt got the money. I just checked now and found nothing so I made a money request to you."

    When I asked "why did you tell me that you got the money before?"

    He said "because you were in a hurry and wanted me to send at once even though I still wait for my funds from my employer. I just wanted you to be comfortable."

    !!!!!!!

    He tried to exchange with me too. That too 200$ Egold. i felt something fishy and i refused to deal such high amount with him. also when i asked him would he send first he refused, that made me sure not to deal with him.

    If you used ur CC to upload fund, ask ur Bank to chargeback. But your acc will be locked by MB.

    If not CC Fund, simply Call MB and they will Lock his account. Do it now as soon as possible :D

    You sent money to someone that has been a member of this forum for 3 days with 1 iTrader? I think that was a bad move and the risk was very high.
