I didn't do any research cause we agree to make deal via localbitcoins.
Turn out, he tried to be me and also send me the link of a random trader in localbitcoins with a ridiculous price (1336/btc) and agree to send me the different because he doesn't want to make a new trade. So I did the trade, and the one who trade with me confuse because he also made the trade with him. Luckily I talk on chat with the guy who I traded with. so I'm gonna lose some money after all but at least not 5k.
Even though I did made the trade and sent via skrill, thankfully we are in the dispute mode and it was all my fault for not checking credit.
But yeah please don't trade with theskillzdatkllz. He is def a scammer. I'm very careful about trade and still get scam.
SORRY FOR LONG POST, CLIFFS VERSIONS IS SAME GUY SCAMMED ME SO AVOID THESKILLZDATKLLS UNLESS YOU SPEAK WITH REAL ONE ON 2+2.
Urgh why didn't this post pop to the top when I was doing my due diligence like it just did now that I am doing my confirmation I got boned. Thats frustrating. I had very similar experience. Guy hit me up on skype(and not on 2+2 which shoulda been red flag that ended it) after I posted that I was looking for funds. But I had searched the 2+2 name he gave me and saw a ton of positive feedback and shipped him the whole amount we were trading. Right after I did it and he didnt insta ship me my funds I realized I was an idiot for not having him message me on 2+2 first and for sending the full amount(only 500 but still). He claimed to not receive but he definitely did. Adding insult to injury I finally find the legit theskillzdatkills account and dude even has in his bio to message him prior to trades since I'm assuming this has happened multiple times.
Such a bummer theres scum in the world, but also such a bummer I seem to be incapable of learning my lesson and making sure I don't proceed when a red flag happens. Had I taken all the precautions and really done my research I wouldn't be out the money. For me right now coming off multiple times of being scammed its not losing the money that matters its losing that belief people are good and can be trusted. I hate feeling jaded towards the population like getting scammed by someone coming across friendly(or worse someone youve built a friendship with) makes me. But i keep deciding I can trust someone and I keep ending up feeling so sad the worlds like this. I can lose thousands of dollars tilting or even just bad side of variance, but losing money because I trusted someone that screwed me over is like losing 100x the amount I actually lost.
P.S. My keen detective skills lead me to conclude that you also were born in 91. If so, thats whatsup. I've always contended we were born in the best year for the development of tech. We were the right age when things were being released or popular and it kicked ass.
