Rule #1 as a scammer - you just gotta know how to scam!!

LOL!

Dream8 paid $200 for my mage and sure enough a few hour later I got an email from Paypal saying unauthorized transaction. Well, he's in bad luck cuz I'm a professional trader. I saved our AIM conversation. I have dealt with 2 scammers in the past. One tried a chargeback, and the other was unauthorized. Well guess what, had they known that Paypal doesn't protect you with Virtual Goods, and, I have all the evidence to back it up. I was clever enough to ask him what his Paypal email address and registered name was so he can't deny that the AIM conversation wasn't his. He was very suspicious because he didn't ask much questions and straight up paid me $200. His mistake was to actually paid me $200. LOL! He ain't getting that $200 back now. He can keep my account for all I care.

Yeah, you gotta SAVE all of your conversation (AIM/Email) for as long as it takes. Make them confess their Paypal email address and name registered. Also, have them send you an email to make sure that the email used matches Paypal's email. So you know it's not a stolen Paypal. If they can't provide those, then they're scammers.

You gotta be clever about the questions to make them confess so you can catch them redhanded. For example, when they're making suspicious excuses about using different email to send you an email from Paypal's registered email. Just make them use the same email as their Paypal's to send you an email or you won't deal with them.

Just remember, scammers make excuses about their true identity.
