He is a good guy, long time forum, tho i have not done deals with him but i think you can trust him (i say “i think” only because i havent done treads with him)
I have done many trades before and members can confirm it. I’ve also opened up my profile.
I also have done a transaction with him. As paypal is restricted in his country, we naturally had to arrange something else, but it went without any issues. And I also remember him being here for quite a long time, doing trades and stuff as well and I don’t remember any issue with him, so I think he is trustworthy.
Thank you for your answers, I’ll see if I can find a solution,
I had so many accounts that tried to steal from me, that I’m careful
could you tell me how you did it?
THANKS
Through Wise.com
That’s, I think, the best alternative to Paypal. While PayPal takes 4-5% in exchange rates and some bucks when doing transfers, Wise takes only a few tens of cents. And through Wise, they can send it directly to your bank account.
OK thanks
Hey people,
@davidb100806 seems highly suspicious and he is most probably a scammer. Am I 100 % sure? I may be not, but I don’t recommend anyone to try and find out the hard way.
His post in Buying/Selling thread
Link: Official NFT Buying/Selling Thread - #9316 by davidb100806
He joined just 12 days ago, but somehow he has some community nfts. Getting them all in 12 days and then deciding to sell them? Not very probable scenario. That’s a first red flag.
Secondly, he tried to offer public nfts for higher price than it’s in the shop. Nothing against rules as such, just it’s another sign that he doesn’t rly know how it works here, and probably haven’t actually bought anything.
Then, I DMed him, knowing he most probably isn’t legit. After all, there were quite good prices, but the scammers often do that as to get a quick sale when they won’t send anything, maybe except a black-marketted audio, lol.
He demanded me to SEND MONEY FIRST. That’s a very strong sign he is a scammer. Why would I, as a long-time member here, regular, someone who has done many trades, sales, purchases throughout more than a year, send first to someone who pretty much just joined? That makes no sense. He said bcs he wouldn’t have a control over it after he sends it to me. But as if I had a control over the money after I would send, lol. Then he says it’s a risk of every transaction. Like wtf? We have clear mechanisms to counter those risks, with logical rules that he all ignored.
Then I also proposed a 3rd party and asked him to send screenshot of the nfts he claims to have, but he refused all of that, directly or indirectly like by ignoring.
Key parts of the conversation:
Final tip: I probably shouldn’t repeat that, but just to be sure, beware of everyone who is new here and demands you to send first and refuses any 3rd party. And beware even of hidden profiles that you have never encountered here before.
Thanks for the detailed analysis
I just saw it and thought fishy
also the insistence on paypal F&F, as thats the one without buyer’s protections
He offered me poseidon NFT… But I asked proof of ownership and he ghosted…didn’t sent anything. Very suspicious IMO
Lol, he seems to be quite contradicting himself
Or perhaps he was super quick to sell/trade it elsewhere, who knows
He posted that before he offered the Poseidon NFT. I think 99% scammer
99.9% chance that’s a scammer.
Sending over some angels for protection of potential victims and angelic justice to the scammer.
I also strongly believe that scammer’s NFT Wallet ID’s should be posted publically here.
This is not really private or personal information, but public info on the internet.
@ Everyone:
Always make sure to check the blockchain and wallets of your potential trading partners in advance on website like solscan.io and opensea.io.
There, you can not only see whether the trading partner owns the NFTs, but also how (!) and when (!) they historically acquired them.
I messaged him already asking several things. I found these posts to be suspicious as well.
U sent him a message? Good. He will get to it. Sometimes it can take some days, but he will most probably reply. Or maybe send him follow-up message, but don’t try to chase him in threads, let alone in unrelated ones, he doesn’t like it and dealing with messages is a separate thing from dealing with general forum matters.
So… i just want to call to your attention a new little something that seems to be happening so be careful.
It happened to a friend that is not in the forum.
First of all go check if you have the nft for the Tarot Deck, since its not one people would trade or sell because it needs the actual deck, we might not notice if its there or not.
Now i did find it unusual to see sales on Venly for $4, $7, $8 and i used to think wtheck is that?
Well those are the Corpus Spiritus deck… thats why they sell them cheap.
Somehow they are hacking wallets, but it must be someone trying to be clever to not stir up much trouble so they go unoticed.
And they keep bouncing a NFT from wallet to wallet.
That nft had multiple transactions in just a few days, so they steal them and move it around fast. Like how is a $4 nft so important to be transferring it everywhere? Nah thats not it.
Also look here this is the first wallet that received the NFT stolen from my friend (he doesnt even have Venly password anywhere saved)
If you notice, it only has 1.9 something Matic
And it only has 3 transactions that happened that day when my friend lost his NFT
Confirming they just open a wallet do a transaction and move on to a new wallet to not leave a trace of their other fraudulent activities.
We used to get 1 Matic every time we bought a NFT directly from Spring.
Which take me to the next point.
we see posts sometimes from non regular members asking for a couple of Matic for a transaction right?
DO NOT GIFT THEM OR EVEN SELL FOR 1 DOLLAR ANY MATIC TO NON SUPER REGULAR MEMBERS you might be unknowingly sponsoring scams.
now i believe they ask for Matic just so they can do the transactions, why? Because they obviously dont have Matic because they obviously never bought a NFT from Spring.
And again, check if you still have your Corpus Spiritus Tarot Deck NFT, because like right now, there are 4 up for sale $4, $7, $8 and $30 and as i said, ive seen several times sales in the venly market at those low prices.
My frieng got his snateched out in March and just now he realized it was missing.
Boy… this people is awful. $4 dollars? All that show to steal $4 dollars? if they could use the same strategic intelligence to deliver that insignificant robbery they could certainly put it to better use and legally earn way much more than that.
But hey. Thats why they are where they are.
