That’s weird af. I bought SD3 off him too and verified with Toontrack and they said it was legit. I have been emailing back and forth with him for a few weeks too, seems a nice guy. I will ask him. Stolen credit cards?

That's how he does it apparently from what I've seen. After a few months the license gets revoked when the fraud is filed. He keeps the money and you lose your license.

Doesn’t PayPal protect us? I paid using goods and services so we should be fine right?

Paypal may protect if you're getting screwed ; but you eventually only get screwed when/if the society, who sold to the card jacker the license, gets annoyed by the original credit card's owner bank, and does revoke the license.

Well I lost my case against a known scammer that I had proof against. I honestly thought paying with PayPal goods and services would cover me. What a total shambles. PayPal told me they are not a law enforcement agency. They also claim it’s a warranty issue if I get my license revoked, which they don’t cover. Apparently a seller buying licenses with stolen credit cards and selling them on is a warranty issue wtf so angry

Remember: not even paying with ‘goods and services’ covers you, let my case above be a warning. Do not post WTB ads, that was my mistake. Last time I buy off forums from anyone without a clear history of buying and selling safely

So I was checking out a seller that sells SoundToys, FabFilter and some other stuff. Seemed like a very real person, commented on the posts, was looking to buy as well. I asked him to add me on FB so I could verify his account and he ghosted me, so I did a reverse image search and found that he took his profile pic from some couples blog and the background image from some studio in LA. When I confronted him in the group, he deleted his posting. He's selling from this FB account and this knobcloud account. Currently still selling Fabfilter stuff on knobcloud, I wrote to them and the admins of the FB group. If you think you might have purchased from him, I have some more screenshots, cause he's deleting stuff now. Man f these guys...

Same scam from 9timer

I'm getting odd messages from a brand new user, Trashtimmy808. They offered to pay more than double for my Komplete Ultimate, and they keep trying to get me to dm them on Discord (@Timon#8969). Avoid

I guess I've been scammed from user @popcornsic who has been already banned, so I guess I was not the only one. My bad I didn't check the status and payed F&F for the low amount.

It is ok! It was resolved! sorry!

chk071 · Post by **chk071** » Sun Apr 11, 2021 11:56 am

I had that once too... can't for the life of me remember now though what was the reason. I only remember that the money got transferred regularly after a few days.

Edit: Just saw now that it has been resolved for you. Nevermind then.

Possible scam buyer! Using PayPal Friends & Family = NO PROTECTION if you get scammed
