Default Fraud Alert! Tips To Cover Yourself and a Message...

Greetings honest and humble gamers,

This day, let it be known that the individual by the name of Kypros Sheftali is an absolute fraud. He does business under daniel_home20@hotmail.com as well as kyps73@hotmail.com. From my research, his address is in London which I won't disclose (but probably should). In hopes that he can read this, I know exactly who you are, where you live and if you used an alias I'll trace it back to the real person; Expect a hand-written letter my friend! I implore you to never conduct business with this individual as not only is he crass and rude, but also refuses to confirm receipt of payment. I should inform you that PayPal doesn't cover intangible items like accounts and you should never, under any circumstances, release your account info before receiving payment. It's best to do it via mail like a money order. That's one of the best methods of going about it or using the mediation service you read about so much.

I may very well have lost my account, and please don't fall victim to him or those that follow his example. $400 is now gone, and he's laughing all the way to the bank. Join me in spreading the word to make sure his laughter is squelched. Not just Kypros, but all those who would seek to defile the trust we put in people. In good faith, I was taken for a fool and now I've only my lesson to share.

End it.

I will dedicate part of my website to the education of folks seeing to do business online. It'll be under construction at http://www.amdaddict.com/ soon. Beware. Even though you think you may be able to trust someone, a little security never hurt and it's in the best interest of both parties. I will not rest until I track down every last one of them. Send you stories to brandonejones@gmail.com and share with me your experiences. Together, we can make sure this doesn't happen again. Thanks!

Default EBAY SCAMMER - Kypros Sheftali - kyps73@hotmail.com

I have just been ripped off by this ebay user you mention too. The scammers email address he used was kyps73@hotmail.com under the name of Kypros Sheftali. He has also ruined my excellent 100% feedback by giving a negative and calling me a scammer, thief and con man. Check out my listing below. I dont expect the cash back from PainPal.


Here is my auction listing......

Eurovox EX5000 PVR Cable Box Receiver 120GB Hard Drive on eBay, also, Cable Boxes, Satellite Cable Freeview, Consumer Electronics (end time 23-Sep-08 00:07:56 BST)


After receiving the box, the scammer claimed with paypal and paypal reversed the funds. I have now been conned out of £110 as the scammer is claiming the box is faulty. I could not type this fast enough. I feel i need to tell everybody. I so wish i seen this before posting the box.

Default Oh noes!

As much as I'd love to pull a mafia and fly over to give him some complimentary cement shoes, I'm afraid it's just not practical. I'm very sorry to hear about the ordeal, and it would seem he's quite the industrious little troll! It's very bad news he's outside just trading accounts. Thankfully though, those that search his address will be warned: Google has crawled my post!

I get e-mails all the time about the guy and my experience so thankfully he's been losing business. That sounds cold, but considering his MO it's well deserved.

TIPS:
  • Keep everything. Every IM, every e-mail every time.
  • Take images of the item and keep any CD Keys associated with the account if it's non-tangible.
  • Don't give your secret answer out until the payment has cleared completely. If they can't agree to this, don't do it. Even after the fact they can file a claim so ideally a middleman is best to keep everyone honest. It's a risk every time; remember this.
  • If they ask to ship an item overseas, look out: They'll pay the fees associated to pick it up in customs, but due to some trade regulations and the sheer cost associated with it all I'd suggest against it. It's hard to get an item back. After all, they're in another country. That alone is an obstacle.
