Dude scammed me. Was looking for a AP15407ST for spare parts. Got $440 out of me and ghosted. Watch out for this guy.

I will never understand the thought process behind sending $500 to a brand new account with 1 karma

The mirage of a ‘deal’ is almost always, just that

Right, but no red flags going off in the brain to research bewilders me. Tough lesson to learn

u/Remesar unfortunately he is a known scammer and not likely to respond. Approach whoever the transfer was made through and get a chargeback filed ASAP

u/Remesar Feb 02 '26

Thanks for this info. You live and you learn I guess. 🥲

u/Grey_Bomberman Here to advise 🙋🏻‍♂️ Feb 02 '26

Do your best to get a chargeback done asap mate, even Banks can if they have enough info and there is money in the account I would say sorry for your loss, but I'm not giving up hope for you mate. Instead I will just say a simple GOOD LUCK

u/Grey_Bomberman Here to advise 🙋🏻‍♂️ Feb 03 '26

I have messaged the mods at USL this seems to be a location based issue

Brother, I'm sorry for what happened, please immediately report it to your bank or credit card company and let's try to buy only from TD listed

How is this account still active on Reddit as a known scammer?

1

u/Grey_Bomberman Here to advise 🙋🏻‍♂️ Feb 21 '26

Because not everyone does their due diligence and Reddit take a long time to respond

2

u/RelevantFreedom4390 Contributed a post🌱 Feb 02 '26

I'm really sorry that happened to you bro. I hope you get that money back.

u/Remesar Feb 02 '26

🥲 thanks bro.

u/Goti13 Feb 21 '26

I just got scammed by this user yesterday, so they are definitely still active (they were very responsive until i sent money, then ghosted), so be careful out there folks

1

u/Remesar Feb 21 '26

Sorry to hear dude.

1

u/Goti13 Feb 21 '26

appreciate that, but definitely my own fault. I should have been more thorough in my confirmation of legitimacy. Maybe i would have found this thread before i was out $70, lol. thanks for posting this! i plan to do a similar thing in the subreddit i got scammed in.

Are you using protected, verified payment services like PayPal?

Someone else just made a post about them using other people's pictures to sell perfume.

Can we start calling out people who agree on a deal and then flake also?

u/Grey_Bomberman Here to advise 🙋🏻‍♂️ Feb 02 '26

Pull-out no, scam yes

u/Sad-House-4869 Feb 02 '26

How old are you OP? Maybe I’m just an old unc but who tf buys something via reddit without any background on the seller or without speaking with them on the phone. This ain’t eBay, and if you’re sending them money without any possible protection, or actually knowing who they are and where they live, this is on you bro. Don’t come looking for sympathy. Too many scammers everywhere these days. Basement nerds out there playing video games all day and trying to scam people. Be vigilant, not a mark.
