I think I am being scammed what do I do

Ok, Kong707 basicallt me and him did a deal 7 llll.com domains for 417 dollars I sent him the money and no response so I put a hold on the money on paypal and opened a resolution. What else can I do? Please help me. I really want the domain names but if I can't get them then I would atleast want my money back.

If the seller has not yet transferred the domains to you Paypal should refund your money. If the domains have been transferred then there is NO way you will get your money back as Paypal does not provide refunds for domain purchases.

Unfortunately paypal scammers don't let the funds sit around in the account you sent it to long enough for you to be able to retrieve it. Hopefully you're one of the lucky ones.

BTW they seem to have tracked down the scammer. Every thing points towards some guy name Mehboob in Texas. He was dumb enough to put his whois on some of the names.

If you don't know the seller
1) use escrow.com
2) break the sale up into (7) +-$60 transactions.
Do one deal at a time, then get the name pushed to you.

He said take the hold off the money and he will send.. I am going to take the hold off. Also it's been 48 hours. hmmm wish me luck or I am going to be extremly broke.

I am not a scammer . MR17 , you send me many many PMs . And I was out to work. I just do not reply you within 24 hours but you send me 10 PMs. You have to be more patient . I have my job to do and 24 hours waiting is not so long.

I have pushed domains to you already . Hope I will see some apologies in this thread soon.

What a waste of spaceand forum space. For F's sake, you have to give someone at leastm a week before you start worrying and at least 2 weeks before you consider calling them a scammer ,but this twat waited only 48 hours max !!
