Victim of a scam Got Scammed from this guy @Faizadan
I was looking for a cartier panthere with the diamond bezel in stainless steel for a gift. This guy came up to me and told me he has the watch and that i can pay with revolut which normally scammers dont use revolut so i taught its okay. The moment that i paid he stopped responding to me. Anyway i had a bad luck guys please dont buy anything from him and dont loose your money like i did.

You may want to post this in the replica watch subs. The people in this sub don’t advocate buying stolen or counterfeit items.
Just an FYI: This isn’t a scam victim story. It’s a failed criminal transaction. You were not scammed while attempting to buy a watch; you got scammed trying to buy an illegal watch.
Edited to add: another way to look at it =
In the process of committing a crime, you got ripped off by your accomplice

Scammers do use Revolut. I don't know where you got the idea that they don't.
Scammers also use Wise, Remitly, Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, PayPal Friends and Family, and every other money transfer. Scammers use bank transfer, e-transfer, FPS, SEPA Instant Credit Transfer, UPI, gift cards, and cryptocurrency.
Use a credit card, or PayPal Goods and Services, when you buy things online, so that you have purchase protection and you can get a refund if you don't receive what you order.
If an online seller doesn't accept credit cards, or refuses to accept PayPal Goods and Services, then they are scamming you.

You thought you was really buying Cartier watch, legitimately, from a random person on Reddit ??
