Paying by EGold sucks BIG TIME!

Cheap SEO Services i remember that i sent $300 EG to this guy and u paid me by paypal.

 

I'm also fighting some scammer here Col, though it's a smaller ammount, only $100.
Too bad these guys are still around... G'luck to you mate.

 

It is not a small amount for this matter.

if it is true, it is serious.

do the mods informed?

 

Correct. That's the guy. I think I used Nio for the $250 transaction earlier. You know the guy's EGold account id?

Col

 

thats why people love egold to scam with it. I mean, And also, why would anyone even want egold, you can't add visa / debit card to it, if i remember right.

 

Is this guy online now?

wew... I can see I'm not the only one who got scammed here.
I lost $100 e-gold

 

I dont remember his EG no,but it will b there in my egold transactions history.Do u remember the date?

 

I am sorry about ur lost funds

 

No. Not online at DP but he is online on MSN.

5th of June.

OK. Here it is. He replied to me. Here's the conversation:

You got the work for the first $250, that is a complete lie that you claim I did not give you anything
john.micheal said:
TO be completely honest, I have no money to refund you - I can still complete the work, but I don't want to be known as a scammer
john.micheal said:
I ask you to please consider me finishing this work. I don't have the funds to refund you, and exposing my name won't get you anything but an argument.
john.micheal said:
Put it this way, wouldn't you rather see me finish your work than damage my reputation?

This DP Member is john.micheal

I paid him $250 months ago for a script. He delivered the script and it did not work. He promised to fix it and never did. Made plenty of excuses that his ISP was causing problems and his PC broke down etc..

I gave him more time to not only fix this script but to make another one as well. He asked for more money as a downpayment for the new script. We agreed on $300. Getjimmy can confirm this payment and Nio can confirm the $250 payment.

Well, weeks went by without hearing anything. I sent messages and no response. Hence, this thread.

So. sickem' Rex! I want payment from this guy. Also, I want this guy stopped from scamming others.

I have been fair as I possibly can be with him.

Col

 

Lmao this guy will be flooded with Red, its really unfortunate and sad this has happened. I'll never be using egold after this.

 

Well. It's unfortunate it has ended up like this. I gave him fair warning. I just hope it does not happen to anyone else. Oh. I too will never use EGold again.

Lesson learned.

Col

 

I'm so sorry it ended up this way Col.
Instead of not using e-gold again, try to find someone who's willing to finish the job before asking for payments.

Btw, apparently, you're not the only one Col. Look at his iTrader.

 

I should have looked at that before and after another DP member referred him. Looks like I ain't seeing my money coming back.

Col

 

I'm sorry to hear about your lose col, I hate e-gold and they way people use it to scam each other. I see this guy is a member on DP. Shouldn't he banned for his actions of scamming you?

 

Hi Col,

First of all Paypal to e-gold exchanges could jeopardize your Paypal-account as Paypal is strictly prohibiting an exchange with any e-currency.

E-gold is the scammers preferred e-currency. You could easily register an account under the name 'Mickey Mouse', address 'Disneyland', steal and move your funds elsewhere.

You might wanna give e-gold a call.

E-gold isn't that bad, if you trust/know the guy you're doing business with.
The company has been indicted end of April. Since then there is some uncertainty. Exchangers are charging more or limited amounts, but all in all, still the better/easiest choice in my humble opinion.

Sorry for your loss, Col.
Best of luck.

 

Will they cover my losses though?

Col

 

No, Col, they won't, but you can hurt him a bit, I guess, like getting his account blocked.
