So basically, I run an exchange service and some kid contacts me asking to buy £500 Bitcoin with PayPal. He pays me first with friends and family and I send him the bitcoin. Deal done, or not?
I wake up in the morning with -£550 in my PayPal balance, the kid charged back, fuck. I message him all day long and he doesn’t reply at all, until the night.
He tells me that he charged back another scammer and it charged back all of his payments in the last day instantly, and he sends me £1200, £500 of my money back and another £700 to exchange, little did I know he was trying to double dip me.
This is where I bring in @Lucas for advice, I really appreciate all the help that he gave me, he told me that the guy was trying to double dip me and I should send him ANYTHING and that I should ask him for my BTC back then I can refund the payment. The guy didn’t want that and kept on trying to blackmail me for more bitcoin, telling me that he’s going to change up and send me another payment and chargeback both of them, so I lose all my money. After telling me this, he deleted all of his incriminating messages, but not before I could screenshot them.
I told him to go fuck himself and he began the unauthorised claim, in response, I wrote a fucking essay and supplied all of the screenshots of him to PayPal, not only did I get my original £500 back, I also got the extra £700 he sent me to double dip.
I’m going to donate half of the extra £700 to charity since i feel like I don’t deserve it, but yeah I felt gassed enough to write this post.
In conclusion, don’t try to chargeback us bitcoin exchangers, karma will get you if you try. Best of luck @BadFella @Angeldust @
