Paysighting = Scammer
 

Hi,
Paysighting is a scammer ..
about 2-3 weeks ago I've posted here on GFY thread about epass to paypal exchange : http://www.gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/881409-epass-paypal-500-a.html

So he send me ICQ etc.. so I've sent him $530 and waited about 5-6 minutes and no money and no answers ..
after a couple of hours he told me to send him an email and I did it and here was his reply:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey man,

I dont know where to begin. I messed up, and i messed up pretty bad.

I understand that you are angry, but i want to give you some kind of explanation.
If you look att the threads i made the last week on gfy you can tell that i was pretty desperate.
I had an electricity bill that had to be taken care of asap. The last day i caould pay it was Friday.
I have tried basically everything, but i could'nt fix the damn bill.
So, i noticed your thread, and i saw my chance. Yes, i know it's low, and i cant fucking belive i actually did it.
I have never ever scammed someone, and i could never live with a thing like this.
I used your money to pay that fucking bill.

Is my bills your responsibilty? No, of course not. But again, i was desperate and afraid. I saw a chance and i took it.

Now what? I'm not gonna just sit here and keep your money. I'm gonna pay it back. Every single dime. Only thing is i cant do it today.

All i ask is that you dont ruin any threads for me, so that i can gather epass funds from a cpl. of new design deals im going to offer tomorrow, and Friday.

Im not asking you to forgive me. That would just be silly if i expected something like that.
No, only thing i ask is that you leave my threads alone, so i can make some $ to pay you back asap.

/Michael

So I've waited then he told me when he get his salary he'll load his epass account and send me the money .. plus a couple of some more bullshit emails ..
However I didn't get my money back ..
So Don't Send ANY Money to this Fucking SCAMMER

I'll send info to the admin also to ban him .. plus some emails to some people ...

sig spottin...

Omfg....

Epass couldn't get your money back..?

No .. I've told them right away but Michael told me they can't back the money from transfers ..

Damn man..

Holy shit, what a crook.

when are you people going to learn????

Sad you got scammed, adding him to my list of fuckfaces...

hmm .. yes .. Don't send that amount of money to people that don't know them .. and also check all of the info about them ..

holy fuck he took your cash and ran?

there are just a few ppl here who do transfer who are ok, you have to get vouched for and Id never send that much to someone I dont know, still it sucks

make sure you get it back, I would

where is he from?

my bad 530 it is even

he's been selling some designs few days ago

Any comments from him on this thread, is nice always to hear both sides :)

there's no need from his comments .. I've posted his email reply .. don't you read it .. he's bullshiting me 2-3 weeks ..

OMFG!

I cant believe it

Fucking ban him.

I do know Michael, and he was reliable, but as this thread clearly states , he has scammed and its not good,

He needs to try to resolve this, but where is he????

He is desperate for work, he should be on line, icq? reply to emails?

oh dear another scammer on gfy

bump :(

sorry to hear about this :(

Hope you get your money back. Hate scammers.

Damn, I am shocked that he was so honest with it!

Don't we all! :thumbsup

darn i saw him post last time looking for some client last week?? if im not mistake.. im sorry to hear about that :(( sad to say that some people would scam!!

bump for you

Wow, I've done biz with him before and it went smooth, I guess I'm just lucky

Times are really hard for everyone, yes, but he went about this 100% wrong way, morally, SO sad to see somebody stoop this low

it was beginning to get obvious the guy is/was desperate and this little incident will cost him more than the amount he scammed for.

once a scammer always a scammer. how do you know this is the first, or the last? you dont.

yes times are hard for everyone...... but where is he to try to rebuild his "good" reputation? anyone know?

http://www.gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/885734-paysighting.html

Incredibly low.

Jesus so I wake up and get some coffee and I'm finding out I'm getting scammed for $140 as well.... wtf

same guy or different?

Wow........................

amazes me on how many people here are "ballers" but yet dont have any money for someone as simple as utility bills....


What this guy did is fucking ridiculous and criminal

I'm speechless........ hope you get your money back.

Guess he'll be in jail soon

Same guy but for a design job not a transfer, hope this works out... you only need to put some labor in the finish that job I'm not sure what this has to do with utilities

id be surprised if ANY of it had to do with utilities,... once you start seeing the "oh i got 6 kids to feed, i need to pay my light bill" thats all sympathy shit.

to understand a con, you HAVE TO KNOW, SYMPATHY is one of the things they use against you.

cons are a strict game like chess

go a google search for how cons work and read up

as i said, look at this quote from this thread:

http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=885451

quote from today...

people now feel sorry for him

amazing, but they wouldnt do it if it didnt work.

I hope youll have your design job also..

Hi,

I changed my password to something random bogus password to make sure i could never log in again.
Can you please post this for me in a new thread?

-----------------------------------

thread title: RE: PAYSIGHTING

I messed up, and i messed up pretty bad. I know that "i'm sorry" wont solve anything.
This thread has nothing to do with me trying to rebuild my reputation. I know i can never rebuild it.
Michael e mailed me and asked me to post this on his behalf............................




It's not just tulku i owe money. I have accepted a whole lot of work and took 50% and from a few 100% upfront.
I'm on my daughters computer right now, cause i had to sell my computer a few days ago.

That means i cant deliver anything.

But, i'll pay back everything that i owe people. It'll take months and maybe more, but i'll make it somehow. Tulku will be the first in line.

It's very sad that everything came down to this mess, but i've been desperate the last few months.

Again, i'll pay back every single dime.

/Michael

what a prickkk

a lie.

the guy probably doesnt even have any kids, dont fall for this shit.

i also dont believe he sold his computer and "kept" his daughters, this is horseshit,..

I got this e mail from Michael just now.................

I would never scam anyone even if i couldn't pay my bills. Just shows what scum some people turn into when they need money.

Please tell me it ain't so. Im losing my trust in people and especially designers. he came back with good sketch and I thought he was going to be good. had 3 more sites for him. Mother fucking blaaaaahhhh. Not a good way to start my morning. fuck..

what a pile of lies :(

This is a whole lot of drama for 9:30 in the morning. :error Wow.

If you have read everything around him before this situation, you'd know he was a trustworthy, hardworking guy. It's fucked up, but he did plan to deliver the work he was given. I bought a logo from him and he delivered - he was ridiculously honest regarding the transfer scam as well and was planning to finish the work to be able to pay back, but now he can't finish the work and he has to choose.

It was probably not just the light bill that was the whole problem, it was just the first thing to pay as to be able to keep working for the money. The reason he sold his computer and not his daughter's is that his was good and would actually sell..

There is logic in this. It was someone who was desperate for cash, who planned to offer work but couldn't get enough projects going, scammed for it, and then since he still didn't get that much work had sold his computer and couldn't deliver. Fucked up, but let's not go all paranoid on half-facts.

Im sorry but you cant defend the indefensible, what he did was criminal in my book, he even admitted his intent.
