Blowout Forum Member: chriswitty | Scammer
Quick and easy one with this guy.
Username: chriswitty Offered a card to me at a very attractive price. Obviously I jumped on it. Then he asked for Zelle instead of PayPal. Told him that I only use PayPal as I don't have a Zelle account. He then asks for PayPal F&F. I told him that I only use Goods/Services to protect both of us and save us from headaches. I also asked him for some recent feedback. Suddenly no more messages from him. Buyer Beware! |

Plot thickens. Just got a message from him with "positive feedback" references that is clearly powerpoint screenshots.
I then asked him to coin/name the card in the photo so I know it's legit. Once that comes I asked him to send me an invoice on PayPal since we'll use that now. Got a message back saying he can now use PayPal, but I need to send the money to a DIFFERENT email address all of the sudden. This is getting comical. I'm going to see how long I can ride this one out. |

Ask him to send first. He has 0 feedback here so it’s not a crazy request.

More laughs abound!
I asked him to send it first since he has no feedback and is a first time seller. He then says "send me 25% of the moneys now so when it gets to you you only have to send me the 75% left. That way if you don't pay me, I'll still at least have 25% of the funds. It's better for business." Yikes! |

Oh wow I didn’t know you got a whole thread going already. First of all, those feedbacks were from people i dealt with in my mail Secondly, i said my PayPal was not working, i had to use a friend’s mail instead. I didn’t say mine was working all of sudden I’m obviously new here and that’s why I don’t have so much post on here Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Obviously that’s not a reasonable request What if he was the actual scammer and he never sends my money after he got the card ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I didn’t even know about the rule of not using PP F&F until yesterday, I haven’t had the time to read about the rules, I’m too busy to even be on the forum to know all i need to know, that’s one of the reasons why I haven’t gotten alot of post. Y’all already concluded without even listening to my part of the story Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I’m so sorry everyone for the confusion. I’ll take my time to read about the forum rules thoroughly
