    Hi
    GAF authority will not take any responsibility for this cheating because GAF has a system of Escrow payment system. Only for that reason, GAF authority always motivate provider to use Escrow Payment.
    I am sorry to hear your problem.
    One of GAF Cheater cheated with me about 5000 USD about two years ago.
    Thanks
    Mahi

    Do you use the provided escrow service?
    If yes then you have the chances to get back your money.
    But if you don't use it,then what you can do now is leave a negative feedback for the buyer due to not paying you.

    Unfortunately, if the buyer have not escrow the funds, then you:

    Cannot give any rating to the buyer.

    You cannot start disputes: arbitration is available only if you use Escrow.

    If you tell GAF support about this problem, I am afraid, then will not be able to do anything.

    In the future, I suggest you always ask buyers to Escrow the funds.

    Do this buyer have any ratings?

    That's another factor to thing about. Two months is a term where Paypal, for instance, will no longer be able to help you in the event that you used it to pay with. Unfortunately, you'll probably have to learn the lesson and take different steps when dealing with buyers/sellers, then act promptly next time something like this happens.

    Sorry about that.

    It's always better to deal with a person with good reputation or itrader.
    I personally think that it's too late now and nothing can be done.

    You must leave a negative feedback to the buyer.
