What is an elo boost?

If you used a card with Paypal to pay for it, try doing a chargeback through your CC Company/Bank. I couldn't open a Paypal dispute because its way past 180 days. Called my bank and they've opened a dispute for me and their chargeback/fraud team is investigating. Doesn't guarantee that you'll get your money back but at least it's trying something proactive. Really disappointed too. I love 75% boards and this is/was one of my grails. First real GB with GH too. I bought something previously from Ivan's classified before this buy started and had no issues.

At what point is delay after delay and excuse after excuse not a scam?

[inanis]

^ Indeed, there is a fine line. Sometimes it is difficult to tell. No one wants to be scammed.

This Ivan business is the first time I lost money on a buy. It's not the first time one went south tho. So much risk with this stuff.

I know. I have learned a lot in the past year. I am much pickier now. But really, I never thought Ivan would get me. So disappointed. Next time tho, I'm asking you first. Pls talk me out of it.

All my friends were plat, I was a gold 2 scrub. Enough for me to consider blowing 40€ on a boost, and he ****ed me over

[Bromono]

I got my caps from him when he came back.

Though, from what I read he has been in the hospital?

I did almost get scammed by TheChemist. He had my board for almost a year.

Luckily he came back for a little bit and I got my board.

Then he vanished again and still has people's boards.

The cycle continues.

Yeah TheChemist is a weird one as he was very cryptic when he came back. I haven't been able to get in contact with him for some time now.

Was that the same guy who was a long time member who came back to sell stuff?

 If not that guy sold clacks, topre caps, realforces etc to multiple people, not sure what ever came of that.

:/ Sucks that older members will come back just to scam

[digi]

TheProf, WFD, Sherry 1.0, Druger (LZ), let's be specific boys, no need to beat around the bush (maybe inside the bush?)

[HoffmanMyster]

(LZ)

The general consensus has been that Druger acted on his own with his scam.  Do you have reason to believe that wasn't the case?

And who was beating around the bush?

Yeah, next board I want is a Type-S, JP edition, preferably. Cause that tiny spacebar is so damn cute. I hope the Japanese don't scam me.

well i mean you have to get it verified live with one of the more trusted members of Geekhack.. like HOFF.. who pretty much doesn't sell anything..


And Hoff can't take a bribe,  I remember a thread a while back, mentioning Hoff gets many keycaps for free..   and actions such as that, if done on part of the sellers on the Marketplace is no different than an integrity/security compromise.  Because Hoff can't be an effective mod, if he's not impartial..

I am not saying Hoff is bad,  but he is being influenced.. potentially by scammerz.

It's just that right now, we have no provisions whatsoever against scammers..


I don't think geekhack needs to be responsible should scams happen,   but if we're gonna have a market place,   we should do something to mitigate these issues..


It's just going to keep happening..



Also,  all of Ivan's friends/ close associates..  Them too..  should be scrutinized..
