Have you ever been scammed?

I have only been scammed once, and it was a $5.00 deal.
I felt angry. Even though it was just $5.00, it was the feeling of actually being scammed.

So how much have you been scammed and how?
Thanks.

Lots of us have been scammed. The one I remember most is $60 by Hash for Surplus. Don't remember the others to be honest.

Been scammed once, for an Xbox account. I saw it coming though.
Wasn't even much of a loss, so I didn't care too much about the account, but the feeling just sucks.

Nope, I have never been scammed and never plan to be.

I do extensive research before I make any deals with any members.

Yeah I have, by the user "Cops" he impersonated Quad (when he was OMM) and pretended to be him during the deal and he took my tag

(He had quad's aim, that's why I went through with the deal.)

I was scammed not so long ago for 235$, I was tired so I wasn't as aware as I usually am and I let my guard down, Next thing He was offline. It was a horrible feeling and I never got the money back, Since then I've never once been scammed.

Usually after people get scammed for the first time they start being more cautious.

Nope never. Reason why is because I've never got to sell anything online.

I have been scammed twice. First time, was my first deal ever. 5 1600 MSP cards for gamertag: Vulture
This was way before I was on FK though. The scammer who some of you might know as Racks, or Rarity then felt bad, and gave me the tag a day later, but then turboed it and sold it.

Second time I was scammed by Penguin on here. He was MMing for me and Favela aka Purp. I was getting some nicd 3 letter gt I can't remember, and he was getting aim: Plant and aim: Redemption. Penguin then stole all the items. I haven't been scammed besides those two times though.

Ive never been scammed on here, but ive probably been scammed for over $500 on HF.

I'm pretty sure at least almost everyone has been scammed. I've been scammed, yes.

No biggie.

I have been scammed once about 6 months ago for the tag: Luxurious for $20 PayPal.
It was by a guy called Hate on AIM.

I was scammed by the user plasma on here. I gave him 1600 msp and after he redeemed it he said the code didn't work. That is why he is a faggot, he turbos and scams.

Dopest · Mar 9, 2013

I was scammed by Plasma on LF (not sure if same person, but probably is) he took a tag from me. A gave me a misspelled tag and denies it.

LMAO far from it. I was in a group chat and told people that I was trying to find Cuff from HF for taking a tag from me. Then I found out Plasma had the tag I wanted and said okay, Im not gonna mess with that tag. Plasma and Devour took it as a I was gonna scam Plasma, which I wasn't. I even went first because of the prior convo, and how it would seem I would be shady.

Get your facts straight before you come at me kid.
