Here's my original thread:

http://sythe.org/showthread.php?t=1441917





Explanation:
User Reality. contact me on my thread requesting to add him on skype. His post is now edited, but admins I know you will be able to check the previously unedited post to view his original message.

He requests 80million Diablo 3 gold for the price of $1.25/mil at a total of $100. I proceeded to sell him 20m at a time for $25 per trade, with a total of 4/4 trades. After the first trade he left game and blocked me on Skype.

Proof of his Skype address:

I will see if I can recover the edited post. Are you able to show the end of your Skype chat, where he suddenly leaves the game and then blocks you/logs out? Thanks.

EDIT: Unable to recover the edited post. So I am relying on you to prove he took the gold and left the game, blocking you on Skype.

It is terrible news that you were unable to recover his original post, as it provided solid evidence that may have been useful in making your final decision about this case. Before trading with anyone online I usually have them add me on Skype, then post in my thread to confirm their identity and their intention to make a purchase from me. He did both, so if you can find a way to recover the log for it, it will be extremely helpful to you evidence-wise.



In response to the second half of the question, yes I am able to prove that he indeed went sour on our deal and blocked me on Skype after receiving the first installment of gold. Please refer to Image A paying particular attention to the upper left corner. Skype displays this user has not shared their details with you when it is the other user who deletes you from their list and/or blocks you on Skype. A user that I delete from my list will have their profile information appear in a different format, shown in Image B for example.

I believe I have answered your question thoroughly, but I will provide you with external information verifying my legitimacy as a seller of virtual currency. I am both I.D Verified and maintain a considerable reputation to my name on a website called Ownedcore.com. Here is a link to my selling thread there: http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/diab...ml#post2428755


I will reply to my own thread on your behalf with your username Zerkerfist so you know that I am the owner of and have access to my account there. You are welcome to view my sales history via the vouches contained in that thread, as well as my reputation of 60+ points (meaning that I have over 60 completed transactions since the time of my account being created there which was in April 2012).


I hope you will be able to make the right decision, Zerkerfist, in order to keep these forums free of scammers like Reality.. It was my fault to trust him and go first without using a middleman to trade, and am only doing my part alerting his criminal activity to you for review. I am available to discuss my case further with you and will, on my part, do my best to practice safe trading habits.

Additional Information:
If you would like to add me on Skype, the same account I used to talk to generation.hi/Reality. then I will gladly accept and discuss this case further. This way you can prove that I am the owner of the Skype account as well.

If you would like to view my buying thread on ownedcore, which contains many vouches from various users confirming a successful trade history with me then please visit: http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/diab...-accepted.html

I appreciate the response, but unfortunately there is no way that I know of to recover the edited post. Can you please show the rest of the conversation you had with him on Skype? Most importantly the part where he logs out and blocks you/goes offline.

This case isn't completely lost yet. You have some decent evidence, but I need to see the things I have requested or else I cannot do anything. Your reputation on another site doesn't help us here, unfortunately


EDIT:

Just in case you don't understand what I mean, I need to see screen shots of the entire Skype conversation you had with him just like Picture #1 in your original post. But WITHOUT cropping the screen (I need to see the contact details at the top, as it will show when he blocks you and the arrow on the side will show that the conversation indeed ended at that point). Thanks!

Oh, easy fix. And I'm sure you know already that a remove from friends/block

That is good enough for me I just needed to make sure that he definitely blocked you and left the Skype conversation, so thank you for your patience!

Reality is now banned for scamming.
