Is it ever "too soon" to call out someone who you believe may have possibly scammed you?
I'm a 3rd party to a situation that is currently going on at a FaceBook Group that I am part of. In this group, they allow members to trade ACR/BCP/TP (WPN Network) funds for PayPal funds. In this situation. A person of the group, Nabel (that's his name) contacted another member Pete Hesse, to trade Nabel's $300 PayPal, for $320 of Pete's ACR. Pete, having done "many" transactions before, including with Nabel insisted he get the PayPal funds first. Nabel sent....The follow conversation occurred.
TL;DR:
- Victim Send $300 Paypal
- Scammer claims his ACR & Paypal got blocked at the same time, because he is in Mexico and didn't tell them he is in mexico
- Scammer keeps telling victim "you'll get your funds tomorrow"
- After 3 days, Victim posts he believes he's been scammed
- Scammer comes on post and defends himself but doesn't want to submit proof
- 8 days has now gone by and victim has still not been paid.
