I think I am being scammed what do I do

[Vutos]

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.

it sounds like a scam.. first find out the who is info for all llll.coms , see if there all a match... and then confirm the names with the email u send the money

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.

For how long did you wait?

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.

crap! i just bought a domain from him and just paid him $74, wish i saw this post sooner, but maybe he will give me my domain. Ill just wait and see.

[JMJ]

I could be wrong but I think you guys are safe. Unless his name was stolen both here and namepros. ddaybofb how did the transaction go there with him yesterday?

[ddaybofb]

yeah, he transferred my domain quickly, hes trustworthy

[JMJ]

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.

Well, lets hope I get my domain names. Im still waiting I got some replys in pms today but yet no domains.

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.

Acually, it says if I take the sipute off well the I can never make a claim

? i didn't get it ~ do you communicate?

what reason he provides for not pushing the names to you?

[Vutos]

He said he's been at work. I dont know he said he is sending the domain names now... I have my fingers crossed.

I wonder why all recent scams involve LLLL .com domains?

[kong707]

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.

Domains finally recieved. thanks kong707. I can also prove it has been 48 hours or more Please close thread as. I misunderstood what was going on. Thank you for your help everyone

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 !!
