    Beware, scammer gold buyer

    Beware, I just got hit with a claim dispute - unauthorized payment on PayPal.

    Name : Lisa Hodges
    Buyer's Email: [email protected]
    Amount : $100 divided into 3 payments

    I'm 85% sure his battleid is george#1231, character name geo.

    Sale was for 3M, transferred successfully and quickly. The next day I received an email from PayPal.

    Do beware, and anyone has any tips on how to respond to the dispute on PayPal's resolution center?

    You won't win an unauthorized claim dispute. Chances are the paypal account was stolen, as falsely claiming unauthorized payment is a serious offense and no one in their right mind would risk it over $100 (unless of course you're the thief).

    I'm worried about the same thing happening to me from one of the members on this site.. Names on skype and paypal don't match up, at all. We'll see how it goes in a couple of days though.

    If that guy is http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/memb...rcrux1337.html , he is a scammer. His skype name is JOSHUA Tschida.

    No that was not him, but I was going to do business with him whenever he signed online to skype again.. So thank you for the heads up, and sorry for your losses.

    Suggest using Player Auctions. At least they use a legit middleman service and they offer coverage in cases like this. Much safer.

    But he also paid me 23€ with another paypal account -> (look at bootom of this post)
    He did not chargeback these money yet ... i have -50€ on my acc atm (had 0 € due to think i sent money as a gift to other people)
