I have a good trick when you have lost money from a scammer. please contact me when you need info for limited MB account from the scammer!!!
you are right. i ran into this post where multiple DP members got scammed. thread link everyone must use common sense and take precaution
Thats true, The best way to aviod is deal only with the registered paypal person the best way to get your shit out
i have been scammed twice. once a guy sold me a domain with fake PR. the other time it was a money bookers exchange where the scammer charged back. DP is full of them. only deal with proven members
Here is a suggestion, quit money trading! If you just look at the posting habits of people you can spot a scammer. He will be looking for VCCs to verify a Paypal account. Maybe do a few minimum trades to build a little rep and BAM greed kicks in for both members the scammer and the victim and he does his deed. Do your research before dealing with anybody. You can spot the scammers if you take some time to look at what their posting habits are. A lot of Introduction forum posting, very short nonsense posts, right away looking to trade money, and as I stated before, asking to buy VCCs to verify their paypal or wanting to buy a paypal account. *Thinking as always DP should ban money trading*
I'm registered in Dec 2007 and I ask for 50% payment upfront for my projects. That doesn't make me a scammer, please don't yell out stuff just for the heck of it
i hate scammers, but you know what i hate more? Thieves honestly thats the lowest shit you could ever do is steal. If you ever stole anything over 5$ in your life your low class scum.
Ye well basically scammers are thieves. They might not reach into your pocket for the money, but they promise a service and don't deliver on that promise. Can't tell which is worse.
there more con-artists. both are scum but i hate thieves even more. especially those with no motive behind it other than just to steal something to make a buck. I can understand maybe poor people stealing but not people who have money. Sorry just a rant, had a friend who stole 60$ from me awhile back, he had his own car at the time paid for by his mom and dad, he had two cell phones and two different bills which both his parents paid. he bitched and moaned when he din't get enough money from his parents, he had a kid at 16, hes a man whore and plays women left and right and probably has numerous STD's, he knows hes messed up so he drinks nearly everyday, he did drugs and probably still does. Yet he bitches and moans because he thinks his lifed sucked. Now it does thats for sure. oh and i could honestly call him a professional thief. he actually "got good" at it. he literally could steal something straight out of someones hands. sad really.
The best thing you can do really is - as suggested already - check what kind of posts and trades the person have made in the past in order to get a better sense of what kind of person they are.
