BEWARE OF SCAMMERS ‼️

My account got put on hold for 3 months and I lost almost one thousand dollars due to a SCAMMER. They will send a fake Paxful link and tell you to sign into your account and then take over your whole account. I was smart enough to not fall for this but unfortunately other people are not aware and are new to the app. Anyways the person was running two profiles and started two trades with the amount of one profile being a 480$ and the other one being 490$. On one of the accounts he said he only had 480$ to send me and the trade was for 490$ so I just told him to send the 480$ BEING NICE. & he marked it as PAID and I released his Bitcoin. So the SAME PERSON on a different account said he sent me 480$ and had proof to show the moderator that he sent me the money. & I had no proof to show at all so he won the case and I lost 480$ + the 490$ & got my account on hold FOR 3 months ! I like the app but you just have to be smart with these scammers ! & do not accept money that isn’t the EXACT amount of the trade because they will take advantage of you !

Beware of RenHe_LLC

I just got scammed by him, The first trade I opened with him goes for me to use my Vanilla card's $220 balance to buy bitcoin worth $115 from him but he said he won't be able to do it because of the rate for the card having no receipt, he asked me to join his new offer link which I did and the rate for the value of my card is $105 which I accept because of the litecoin I wanted to invest on, I told him before placing my card that the card was sent to me as a replacement for my stolen card and it's not activated yet, Which he asked me to send and I did, after a min he sent me a pic that the card was partially used and he won't accept it, within a blink, he made a dispute and informing the moderator that I'm a cheater and he blocked exactly 2 minutes after sending the remaining balance because he knows there's no way I can see the balance because it's only one person that can activate the card and use it so he moves out the money and blocked me, in the next few minutes, the moderator released the bitcoin to him , when I tried to look up the balance on the vanilla balance website again that's when I see that there's a pending transaction on 220 dollars on my wallet that's getting to be transferred out, it's already late because there's no way I could stop it, he has create pin and the customer care are not picking their call, please I will be delighted if I get a good judgement on this and get my money back for this ripper
