    He scammed me for 100$ a week ago.
    I sent him 100$ PP and he should have sent me 100$ back to my MB and he didn't.
    he don't answer all my PM's and emails.
    PLEASE BAN HIM asap.
    thanks.

    sorry to hear you got conned - but if someone described themeselves as a grifter in their log-in name, that should set off alarm bells straight away, I think.

    dvirhazout, sorry about your loss.
    Could we see the relevant thread about that? Just out of curiosity. If he did scam you for your money, you can leave a negative iTrader for others to know in the future.

    Also you could try a PayPal dispute (chargeback if you paid by CreditCard).

    People who post in the BST section have been here at least 2 weeks i believe. They could still trade via PM i guess, or reply to your thread requesting money.

    I am also sorry about you losing your money, and hope it doesn't happen again to any DP member.

    Money exchanging is risky and against PayPal TOS. You leave yourself wide open for this kind of scams. If you insist on doing them, you assume the risk of being scammed. Not much DP can do about it. You can leave Itrade if it was done in a thread but sounds like you done it through PM. You need to look for long time members with high Itrade.

    Sorry for your loss but you just bought a $100 life lesson, nothing you can do at this point.

    Edit: Wow you really went in blind. The only feedback the guy had was from two members who joined the same time, one had 0 posts and one had 4 posts. You need to do your research before making these kinds of deals. He set the typical scam trap and you jumped right in.
