WTF


Sorry to hear this.


You need to go the sale ad and click on the red triangle and alert the admin and moderators, so this guy gets banned and his ads removed. That is the fastest way to protect others from this scammer.

I'm so sorry OP. I read your other thread where some people are chiming in saying his account was hacked. To transact on TRF and not have 2FA enabled is just reckless.

If anyone has any advice on filing a police report or recovering money please reach out. I saved years for that watch and feel totally gutted

Report to your local PD, also your state AG office, many states have a dedicated AG division for these things.
How did you pay? Has your bank been notified?

Let me guess...after you did the wire, he asked you to send a pic of the wire paperwork or screenshot to confirm?

Just curious, is this a common to scammers or legitimate sellers?

Apologies to OP.

No, it's something scammers will do when they're using an unwitting 3rd person as the individual to whom the actual wire is being sent to, usually employed with "romance" scams. it happened to me when i got scammed on here Feb '23, the guy who scammed me was blowing up my phone with texts wanting a pic of the completed paperwork after I left the bank...what happens is that, in such a scenario, the scammer will then forward that pic to the unwitting 3rd person involved in the scam to say, "see? I told you I'd send money, see how much you mean to me? Now, send me all of it except for a few hundred bucks" or whatever the prearranged agreed upon cut will be. It's a way for them to cover their tracks and further obfuscate their identity, and possibly lead any sort of authorities or banking representatives in the wrong direction when looking for the actual culprit.

WTF. I hate scammers.

I'm so sorry to hear that OP and the other gentleman who got scammed last year.

You'd think it should be able to track down the money given all the current surveillance governments have on us.

Oh, they can track it alright. But once the scammer had the money in hand and closes the account, there is no way to get the money back.
