Value of property in dispute

$135 USD

This was my transaction from this guy. I took the reviews as *slow* to heart as this guy was responding quite fast. I was hesitant at first cause all his positive feedback was from hidden users, and from the likeliness a friend / or himself as the user behind Compass. Being verified and premium , thought he was legit. Blurred out my char name , but showed his name. Again, I hope to see this resolved.

At the very least I can confirm their paypal name doesn't match their photo ID.

 

[Aristotles]

[ChatWithThisName]

Im not here to say the entire blame isnt on Compass, but I would just like to point out, on the off-chance that someone new happens to explore and read this, that if you come across a deal that is SIGNIFICANTLY better than everyone else is offering, you should approach that deal with extra caution. Up to and including requiring said person to trade first and or even looking into getting a 3rd party to facilitate the deal. Especially when said person is VERY new to the site and has minimal feedback.

I don't expect every person to be 100% up on every situation that happens here, but its just another factor you can use to protect yourself. At the time of this deal most Krono sellers were offering krono at the rate of $11.50-$12.00. And while im not saying that you'll never find someone selling at 75% of the market value, I'm just saying to take precautions.

Ya this one is a bit odd. Several high feedback sellers were offering to buy at his price and some even higher so this was a very obvious scam imo.

ive bought every last krono off the site for $9 . Obviously big krono farmers have the market, and they can gate-keep the prices if one does so. I will just purchase elsewhere, its no biggie if they hold firm.

My dispute with paypal still on-going. I was giving Compass another benefit of the doubt - maybe he fell ill or an internet outage , snowed in ... but alas dude is fighting his scam to paypal.

well, hate to burst your bubble - but there is zero benefit of the doubt with that dickhead that is going to result in you getting anything from him.

all but certain it is DK using either a: someone else's identification with the intent to defraud, or b: stolen identification with the intent to defraud.

sounds like that dude is escalating in some seriously bad territory

compass came back with > this < after compass was sus/banned - his racist diatribe was deleted, and that account was banned

and now came back with > this < account, Blagorff.

 

[Aristotles]

His email is now [email protected] . Scammer still on the loose. Paypal isn't being much help, their AI deterrent is a road block.

Is his IP coming from Oregon?
