    I have been scammed by Expertguy.
    He said that since I am "new" in the itrad world no one is going to
    trad with me but he can "help" .
    I sent him $150 by PayPal and once he got the money he disappeared and never replied to my messages.
    I informed Paypal and they said that they will wait 10 days before "solving" the problem.:mad:
    After the waiting period they e-mailed me saying that "they can't recover the money .."??? :mad:It sounds like he had two paypal accounts , and the very same moment he got the money in, he "send it" to his other account..this way Paypal didn't
    find any funds to refund in his account.. :(
    So he ran away with my money !!!!


    How THIS can help you ? well, DON'T use the "Send Money" button in Paypal uless you have already gotten the service (or product) First .Because Paypal will not refund all the fraud transactions.:rolleyes:


    I don't want anyone to be the next victim of that thief.. he took my money and run trading it from Pay Pal to MB or e-gold ,
    and getting positive feed back..of course why not ..
    he is trading MY MONEY...
    What he has to loose? ..
    I couldn't even submit a negative itrad because he PMed me without posting in the thread.for any further info ..I still have all his PM ,and Paypal costumer service email .
    It is really a sad fact that their are such a people in DP making it their stealing stage . I hope someone can stop him and the ones alike him.

    I would like to tell you someone will do business with you with no itrader. How to you think everybody else starts out?

    Sorry for your loss :(

    Report the PM to a mod, get him banned at least

    This was my point from the beginning..but too many users put a condition that you should have at least 10 itrader . They don't know that some people are making those itrader selling a book for $1 just to get itrader points:rolleyes:
    What is more annoying is that he is running selling my PP money $10-$50 at a time , in front of my eyes AND getting POSITIVE itrader points for selling stolen money..How fair is that ?:confused:
    Thanks for the nice words guys, I really appreciate it.:)

    Some sites need e-gold like HYIP etc
    got it ?
    Buying & selling also profitable as e-gold worth more then PayPal.

    its not at all advisable from any viewpoint to send money first to a zero itrader...

    that should have been considered..

    Not everyone lives in a country that is supported by Paypal , so some members will not accept any payments if not made by e-gold ...
    I hope that clears it up..
