Scam Alert - Whitingja scammed me

[Puldo Bruce]

I stupidly sent Whitingja funds for a Garmin chronograph through PayPal F&F. His profile showed it was active since 2012 and he had recently made comments on a couple of different subs, so I didn’t think twice about it. It looks like his profile is now deleted.

The scammer’s name is Mike Kemani and his PayPal email is [email protected]

I know I’m out of the money, but does anyone have experience getting scammers banned from PayPal even if F&F was used?

Yup, sorry, I was talking to him, but he got weird.

I’m going to say you’re not the only one.

It's fraud, you may be able to get your bank to reverse the charges.

Banned a few days ago.

Thanks! I have bought and sold so much stuff on Rokslide over the years that I thought I had a good feel for identifying scammers. That teaches me!

He tried to sell me a rokstok and when I wanted to FaceTime, he gave excuses. I reported him.

Hotmail? What is this 1997?

Sorry you got burned man. Maybe your bank or credit card can reverse charges.

Hey! Easy on the hotmail. I’ve had the same hotmail account since 1998

He got me, too. Was able to get the money back using my bank. The name and email he gave me was different than the one listed above.

Sorry to hear that. He quit talking to me when I said I would only do PayPal good and services.
