Briefly explain the trade:
I posted that I'm looking to buy over 2k HSD Neopets BD pet and this seller PMed me that he's selling a 2500 HSD pet.
How they scammed:
My buying thread:

I posted that I'm looking to buy a neopets BD pet with at least 2k HSD. This seller (newcomer) then PMed me that he's selling a BD pet with 2500 HSD. He told me that he's a reputable trade on Darkztar.com (DZ). I asked for his DZ username so I can PM him there to verify. He then told me it's MasterChief. I went to DZ since I'm a member there too and PMed him and he replied. I looked up his DZ profile and he had 172 feedback score with 100% positive feedback. That is a very impressive trader score.
His DZ profile:

Since he has more trader score than me in DZ, I agreed to go first. After I sent the payment, this member then logged off DZ as well as Sythe. I gave him an hour to reply back but he never did.
I then filed a Scamming Investigation report and within 24hrs, DZ banned him.
