When i read the scam report on @Difficult . I felt bad for @pan because this happens all the time not just to new members but to regular members. who think we'll it wont happen to me because i deal a lot and i can sniff a scammer. I even admit back when i first start i had been bamboozled in a couple deals.
NOTE: Just because someone has high rep doesn't mean anything. its a number.
Here's a Checklist before i did/do deals
1.Read his negative reps ( If they say dwc look in scammers bay or invalid scam reports , just because its invalid doesn't mean it didn't happen) Staff is not always right in deciding a user fate, and yes in some cases we've seen favoritism with members from staff.
2.Check if he has a vouch thread, never go by typical bull-shit " I have more posts, i'm more active, i have more rep, or PM this user to ask if i'm legit" because what idiot is gonna give you a person that doesn't think they're legit?
3. No shame in using a MM . Use one you're comfortable using or know is legit. Post a thread asking for a MM.
4. I prefer dealing on site. if it goes off-site for a reason, just say on whatever messenger you're using " Send me a PM with what your Username handle is ("on this specific messenger " weather its skype/ aim/ kik/ fuckbook chat lol JK)
5. in high value deals take your time, idiots rush shit and don't know whats going on all for the sake of getting it done.
This isn't very hard , just stay safe FK.
