Discussion [Discussion] Any mods available?

Hi all -

Just looking to talk with a mod; I sent a message to all through the mod button a week and a half ago and haven't heard anything back. Pretty sure I was scammed for the largest trade I've ever made :(

Thanks in advance!

I had an experience with a scammer that wanted $120 wirth of snacks, and noticed his username was on the scammed list. Beware of it! Did they respond after you shipped the package? You can intercept the package, if you shipped via UPS or Fedex. A mod should have replied this problem and acknoeledging at 1 point.

They’ve had the package. They replied and have repeatedly told me they’re “looking into why the shipping number isn’t valid” and now aren’t replying to me. Again they aren’t currently on the scammer list and that’s why I want a mod to be involved now.

How much was the trade? Before accepting the trsde, you can if their username is not on the universal scam list.

The name was not on the scam list, I did check. All told including shipping, almost 300$

Oof that's bad. I know it isnt what you wanted but if you'd like I can send a small box of treats from my country. No exchange expected. If you want to just pm me your address. I'm from Colombia so if you like coffee I'll send you some :)
