I paid him Via paypal, with money i had in paypal. He refunded me the original 500.. so i could send the money to his other paypal, but i told him i coulnt because resend the money because the refund would take 3-4 days to get back in my account... so i ended up just paypal him again another 500 this time from my bank account. Once i caught wiff that something fishy with him was going on, i called my bank and had them do ACH to my account to stop the payment to paypal, since i called paypal and told them this guy is a scammer.. all they gave me wa "Sorry to hear that" what jerks paypal.. they wouldnt cancel the payment to him either.

I've talked to DH about it, and Nflesher and contact few other mods on these forums see what can be done.

File a claim with paypal, if he cannot provide a tracking number for verification that he sent you a package they will refund you. Start a dispute enter all the information you have, tell them you have emails to confirm, and immediately escalate it to a claim.

That should at least get you your money back.

Well the problem is now its been so long i dont think i can, plus i already did file a claim with paypal then ended up cancelling the claim since he refunded me 250 and promised another 250 in return via MO's because he had already withdrew the money out of paypal

You should know what his information is. Did you report him to the police?

*On his heatware he was a good seller/trader up until the last two transactions. Possibly something has happened to him?

I wish there was an Interpol -like system so forum sites could share info (such as reg. IP, common IPs of troublesome users).

Heres what i got from a mod..

"Hi

The incident with Dragon_CPU happened on Techpowerup.com he's been banned from Bjorn3D.com for some time now.

Please keep the incident where it origionated, or notify the local Police department where he lives at. Scamming of that nature is Fraud and he'll be held accountable by his local Police. All you have to do is file a complaint and provide adequate proof.

Thanks

Further Update...

"Not since he got banned nobodies seen or heard from him, your not the only person that's had this problem we've seen it coming at us from several forums.

He's from Missouri, I'm from Missouri, trust me if you turn him into his local police they'll square him away.

who is this?

I have a question here, my name is Stan Miranda, and I live in Punxsutawney, PA a member here said I had something to do with this, can someone please explain this to me? I am 55 and disabled, so if someone is using my name, I would like to know about this.


Thanks

Im wondering if anyone who has dealt with this guy has heard back from? I was intending to buy his computer until he tried to pull something shady on me.... He ended only refunding $250 + 2600XT for a total of 295.. of the 500 i paid him, he still owes me $205 and now it has been 2-3 Months.... Last i heard from him was 2 months ago saying he was selling some stuff to pay me back then he disappeared and i havent heard from him again.

Long story short, im out $200 which to me is alot.. as i currently dont have work.. needless to say im not too happy... :mad:

Anyone else out there who has dealt with him have similar troubles or heard from him?

Doctor Death...... Who sent you the email?


Trouble thread: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=65002

We made an agreement.

I pay him 500 bucks + Ship him a decent computer In return he'll send His computer. Well i paid him the $500 he made the billing information.

First he tells me he'll refund me my 500 because the paypal account he told me to send it too he still had to "setup" so he refunds me my 500, tells me to send it to a different e-mail address.

So i resend him the $500. A day later he tells me his wife doesnt want him to give up the monitor(the package deal) and says he doesnt want to take the decent computer i was going to ship him. He offers me to spend $175 more to get the whole computer minus the monitor. I say no because we already made a deal and that included the monitor.

Well He said he'll refund me when he gets the money back in his account because he already transferred it out. I havent heard back from him since and i noticed when checking paypal
the two paypal e-mails have different names one is "myron Todd" the other "Roger Hampton"


So it was Myron Todd and Roger Hampton. Most likely fake names at fake addresses that funneled the money to the actual scammer's Paypal and then into his bank account.

Crap, another scumbag here? I was about to trade a whole bunch with him like 2 months ago. Good that I didn't go with the deal as I would have been F...d up.

Can we please enforce more stricter policies here for the FS thread? Most scumbags visit here, how do we stop them?

Now when a genuine person tries to clear out things at a cheap price we have a big ? there.

Xazax I feel your pain. About two years ago I bought a torque converter for $300 off of a forum I used to visit. The guy had made plenty of posts and had good reviews as a seller on another site, never-the-less I never got the converter or my money back. It left me with a bitter taste in my mouth even to this day.

Good luck!

Suggestions always welcome.

May be the seller or buyer needs to be Paypal verified? Must leave a valid phone number and both parties need to talk to see if the person is real and may be proceed. But still you can't make the person send things after getting money.
