skins, I sure hope what I think happened... didn't happen. If (god forbid) it did, next time NEVER trust anyone with a post count of "1" and regsitered on 11-15-2003.

I hope you get your license, or you paid by credit card.

this bastard is online and ripped me off but wont respond to emails, pm's, etc. I grabbed a screenshot of him online with this thread already there to prove he is online after my post that he ripped me off...

Wondering if i should post his email addy here to expose him and warn others...?

We are aware of the problem. As Steve so wisely put it, don't be too quick to trust a brand new member with your hard earned money.

I knew what I was talking about. I just don't always get it from brain to finger tips the right way...



I hope it's not contagious fcs! sheeeesh

If you paid by paypal contact them immediatly, give them a link to this thread, all of the info you have saved, they'll trace down the funds as well as the loser who did it. These people are stupid to think they'll get away with this. They must not know that ebay (the company that said it's doors and all data it has on people are open to law enforcement) owns paypal.

Contact payapl, you can open a dispute. Hope you can get your money back.

Damm scammers :mad:

To be honest though, $100 is a little on the cheap side, plus the fact that he started offering to throw in skins and reduce the price before you'd even asked for a better deal, lots of red flags there, but i hope you can get your money back. (let us know)

That screenshot is probally just one he saved from somebody making a sale of a genuine VB license here.

I think paypal automatically suspend accounts with disputes. So contacting them would be your best bet.

Dispute it all the way. That sucks to be ripped off. I know PayPal allows you to file disputes for up to 30 days from paying.
