Im not tryin to point fingers and say he is tryin to scam me but i still have no bcp and this guy is new and this guy just joined this site less than hrs ago and hes tryin to make me release early (which i didnt) Its been about an hour and they guy left and i checked and i still have 0 bcp.... He might be new to this whole proccess but i dont know.. Please Zab refund my 2750 pts and this will be over.

Also I'm just wondering why this guy has marketplace access if he has been here for 2hrs and knew a whole lot about trading with other members and stuff if his join date is June 20th and it was about 1:30 a.m when this trade went down. So if u think about it doesn't it sound like a returning member?

ure right this guy sounds fishy as hell and very desperate for u to release...the question im asking is why you would consider doing a trade with someone so new in the first place :/

I had no idea he was new and I really wanted the bcp.....but the thing is there was no risk for me at all because I will get my PTS back from escrow. It really surprised me when I looked him up and he was only a couple hours new. If I do offsite trading I do background checks and make sure I know who I'm dealing with

but this time u didnt, whether there is risk to you or not because ure doing a market trade you still should do ure checks zab has enough on his plate without having to babysit u because ure being a dumbass

Azrael we all started from the bottom dude with no feedback or anything. What makes it right for a good person to be not trusted if they start out fresh? In this case this guy is not starting off well at all

because 2 hours new is just asking for trouble also
by this point id of not gone near the market place "devinmesaraco: i have up to $55 on bcp for sale
Me: im lookin for $5.50 i have PO pts
Me: 2750 cool?
devinmesaraco: yeah thats fine
devinmesaraco: ok its up
devinmesaraco: let me know your bcp name when you release ill send " or escrowed my points, id of explained to him how it works and if he pesterd for me to release first i wouldnt of bothered escrowing the points and id of cancelled the trade before it began

look for the warning signs ffs

Wtf u moan again Turtle? It's ovbious he is trying to scam you. If i needed points from anyone, I would send the money instantly, and ask for the number of 'em I wanted lol

As soon as he said it was set up I escrowed it to him then the convo went on

and this is why you are a moron

Azrael I honestly don't understand why I am commenting on this thread if I already know I am getting my PTS back and this guy is just looking bad for pulling off some shady shit. So let it be and the name calling is really making u look dumb because u don't have much more to say but to try to bring me down.... Ty have a nice day

Fair and square. :D

but this could of all been avoided which was my point, the fact you are getting your points back is irrelevant because the trade should have never taken place in the first place :/

I am not going through this whole thread but he is obv not a moron as he didn't release.
Good job Turtle and you probably spared someone else of being scammed, that chat is a carbon copy of how the regular scammers work.

Just ran it, guess we should change his name from dbeg to dscam.

Ty poof....1 question I have for u....later as I saw that this guy was trying to scam me I saw that he had an account for a couple hours. How on earth did he have access to market if he was there for only a couple hours? Lots of new people go weeks without it being unlocked. I don't get it.

Either the system isn't foolproof, or this person knew exactly how to get around it (not sure what that could possibly be). Good catch, Turtle.

yeah i remember once doing a "trade" with a "new member" and they knew more about the whole trading process and the "PO Slang" than I did.. thought it was pretty fishy but i've never been scammed and i've also never released pts outta of escrow early unless it was someone i knew was 100% trustworthy

That's where the conversation should have ended.

I BO-LIEVE Rivdee is right...........

Man, sucks at least you will get your points back.

lol once again azreal's outrage makes zero sense. "Why trade in the market with a new member?" Lol because its impossible to get ripped of in the market. It is like the one place that you should ever trade with new people. Turtle literally did exactly what he was supposed to do, he didn't release and didn't get ripped off. And yet azreal still creams his jeans because he can call someone stupid. The whole point of the escrow system is to allow us to safely trade with people we do not know. I mean i would trade with dpad in the market if he was the only one that had it for sale. The only thing I am risking is a 2 sentence PM to zab to get my points back. Get off that imaginary high horse of yours and shut your pie hole azreal.

def. a fishy guy. good catch turtle. zab will have no problem refunding you the pts. glgl

funny, riv made pretty much agreed with my point, just without the explination as to why...yet you only call me out, go find yaself another victim my point stands

the only thing turtle did right was to use the market, the rest of it he handled wrong, he didnt do a background check and he didnt wait for a few mins before going to the market to see if the guy had anything else to say (apparently) at which point the trade would have been avoided completely
