Redbot's edit:

DO NOT POST HERE unless Diamond Krono owes you money, goods or services and you're reporting it for the first time.

We're attempting to make a complete account of fraud committed by Ricky J Trevino (aka Diamond Krono.) Questions, drama, speculation, and jokes make this harder to do.

For all other discussion about Diamond Krono, please POST HERE instead.


Original post below:


I've opened a thread with all of the admins in a private chat, because my identity is in most of these screenshots, but here is what is going on...

I've had Diamond Krono on Discord for sometime now, and I reached out to him today at EXACTLY 4:14PM EST about selling some Krono's to him.

Naturally he replies back, as he is the Ranked #1 Trader on ECTunnel..

Whilst in the middle of our conversation, mind you, he is ACTIVELY typing and sending chats to me. I send 43 Kronos to him on an AGREED price of $9.15 per.

Krono's were parceled to his toon on Teek at 5:43PM EST

He replies back with "Shipping over now" ast 5:43PM EST

5:55PM EST "Hey bud, haven't seen it come through yet" < ---- ME


I was ghosted as SOON as I sent my Krono's to him, and honestly, against my better judgement, I went against Xuande's "safe trading guide".

I hope he reaches out and decides to do the right thing. I am no way hurting for $393.45, but the lack of integrity that has been imposed by him, is utterly disgusting.

Best of luck to you all

We've added the "under investigation" tag to DK since something is clearly going on. As the tag warns, do not place any trades.

Please keep posts here strictly related to the case. Staff don't want to get alerts for dunks and drama posts, so take it to the discussion forum. Also, he's owed the same patience to make things right that we give everyone else.
 
The ban is temporary and unrelated to any trade issue. Again, we're giving him the same time we give anyone else to resolve a trade issue.
 
i have done business with him many many times and never thought this would happen to me, idk what happened to him. but something big happened , i gave him 30 krono to sell for me about a week ago and head nothing back from him, he then sent me a long message about him being scammed, some supplieres being douches and whatnot so i gave a week, i then messaged him about 20 mins ago, and now i have been blocked, i was 100% counting on that money :( 30 krono gone to waste
@diamondkrono i have evidence via discord messages and kronos being sent to a toon on teek his name preferance. and his confirmation of krono recieved
 
Usually we allow drama, speculation and jokes in a dispute thread, but due to the number of people reporting scams we're attempting to get a full account of each one.

AS of now. im blocked on both discord., and my 3rd one im managed to send a friend requests but it discord is saying user cant be found.

In all my times dealin with Diamondkrono he has never done anything shady like this, until now?

Im owed 910.00 dollars from DiamonKrono. For the 115 kronos
i supplied him. Those funds ( we not saying names here ) but we all know the trickle down effects and how it goes.

The real problem with this one is, other people in our community i work with is now effected as well by this outcome. As we all know well bounce back.

If i can supply any info : suck as cash appp / paypal / zelle as well.

thats 1 image of 93 i sent, out of 115 * other screenies can be supplied *


Thanks for ur time.

Had been done transactions with Diamondkrono for over 2 years now, and often I was a bit ghosted, having to send further messages to get paid.
At april 13, I sold 39kr initially, but the payment wasn't done in a month, had to contact him further to see if I could get my stuff.
As months went by I was recieveing small payments like 45 dol, 50 dol, but never the full amount.
Being asked for more Kronos, I sent 27 more in may 29
After that I was ghosted hardly and had to attempt contact every single day, for multiple days.
Being further postponed by the promisse of him adding up more value to the total dept, I was led to accepting the delay due to me needing the cash.
July 4th, I got the message:
"Diamond Krono: Thank you for your patience, I understand it is very serious and I'll have that over to you right away. I need 48 hours, no more."
And I wasn't contacted further neither paid.
Today at 11th of july I was blocked on discord.

I have a very extensive log of our conversations but I don't know exactly what can and can't be posted.
I can send it to the moderators if required

Can you tally up the total balance plz
 
So I already replied with my 23krono that got taken but if you guys need screenshots of the conversation just let me know and I can provide them
 
On May 6th, I sent the Kronos to DK, who said he would pay $960 after 30 days (because he was going to undergo surgery).
After those 30 days passed, he started making small payments, even though I kept following up with him every week.
On June 23rd, he made a payment that brought the remaining balance to $597, and since then, he hasn't paid off this outstanding amount.
All negotiations were done through ECtunnel, and all screenshots of the negotiation have already been sent to Teichou, Sic, and Redboot.

I apologize to everyone who was scammed, and assure you we will be taking action. Expect a summary prior to August, either in your ectunnel inbox or email. Thank you to ChatWithThisName for keeping a tally of the fraud.

Some options require us to follow up within two months of the incident, so if you'd like to be in on any legal/financial action, please post or report to mods by the 25th of July.

Will need a PM with the d33tz when you find the time please. If you're already sent it to someone else apologies as I haven't been added to the convo.
 
  • Love
Reactions: Sic
Small update:
Krono + Cash Total: $7,890.7 (thank you CWTN for compiling)

The person who scammed you is named Ricky James Trevino. He also does business as Letitia Olson, richgirl, and Diamond Krono. He lives in Grants Pass, Oregon. His last known home IP was 71.89.194.187

If anyone has any other identifying information they'd wish to share, such as payment IDs used by Ricky Trevino, please do so here.

I will be contacting users who were scammed about next steps later this week. I apologize for not having something ready to go earlier.
 
latest address I have is:
1051 Park St Apt 3,
Grants Pass, OR 97527
[email protected]

Photos are very old, 2010. I know some people here have chatted with him on video calls, if you have a recent screenshot please share.

If you were scammed by DK, please check your ectunnel inbox. If you don't have a message from me please let me know.
 
Hey, I was recently scammed, I didnt know all this was happening. Me and him did business in the past and it was all good. He sent me a flyer for 9.90 Krono and 6.90 for following, and just stopped responding, I have proof as well.
 
Might be beneficial to post his new Discord Username / ID. Even though it's likely he'll just delete it. I wonder if Discord has any policy for utilizing their service to scam.

In fact, if possible, I'd report him there as well.
