    Hi all,

    I had to transfer my Paypal to alertpay. I started a thread. As soon as i realised this is not allowed in DP, i asked admin to close. A member [huri-khan] said he is interested and asked for 33 cents fees, I agreed, transfered. He asked for my alertpay id. Then he went offline.

    DONT BELIVE HIM.

    NB: Huri khan, please refund me atleast 3$ back. Dont be so greedy.

    This is just one of a few reasons why this type of activity is not allowed on the forums and through each payment processor. You live and you learn.

    Sad, Did you send him any email etc ? Maybe he signed out for some urgent work or anyother problem. I would recommend, you should wait some around 24hours & then post scammer report

    $3usd? Don't be worry for $3.00usd bro.
    And thus you know , why its not allowed in DP.
    Exchanging also viaolate paypal TOS (If you specified so in paypal subject or if they caught you) , so just keep away from it.

    Though it is still a scam, even for a small amount of money.

    You must be careful indeed in dealing here in DP besides it is not really allowed anymore to do money exchanges because of too many scam ...So just be extra careful next time

    When was this? How long since you've last heard from him? There may be a good reason as to why he had to go offline. If he hasn't contacted you in about a day or two, then that's the time you complain.

    If I understand DP's rules and regulations right, money exchanges are not allowed in here. Now if you STILL decided to continue the transaction even WITH YOUR KNOWLEDGE that money exchanges are not allowed, then there's no else to blame but yourself. Why continue with the transaction even if you ALREADY REALIZED that it was wrong?

    I have read many such scammed threads and I have been very cautious these days and even not believing the iTraders.

    i dont understand one thing.... why people still do money exchange when they know there is 90% risk of losing the money.... and yet people still take the risk and when get scammed then come back crying.... well i think if someone do money exchange then and get scammed then there is no need to creat a thread as these is not allowed on this forum.... post scam thread only if its not money exchage....

    NOTE: Money Exchange is the most risky business on the net and 90% time you will lose the money....

    i am really sorry to hear this.... but its all good because you learn your lesson at cheap price... you are lucky because i have seen peoples who lost hundreds of dollars by doing money exchange.... this is why DP do not allow these kind of threads anymore....
