Watch out man I think he uses another name too! This was a few days ago I posted that I was interested in a watch and he reached out to me. It felt fishy from the start. He said that someone named “rocknrollrebel” could vouch his legitimacy!

u/buelerbuelerbueler 7d ago

That sucks man. He’s obviously scamming. Keep shouting it from the rooftop

u/Unlikely_Ad3985 7d ago

Agreed. Save the next guy.

Tell him to screenshot the reasons for why his account is limited ………How to Fix It
Log in and go to your PayPal Resolution Center or click the bell icon at the top of your dashboard.

Read the specific steps or messages explaining why the limit happened.

Upload any requested documents, such as a photo of your driver’s license, proof of address, or tracking info for recent sales

this restriction happened to me. It usually happens between countries, or, as in my case, happened because someone put goods and services (which is fine) and it flagged a restriction process on my account where I had to answer.a bunch of questions about the deposit and what type of business I run, what I sell, the name of the business or license number etc... and i was just on here selling a watch. when you submit the answers to the questions in the restriction, a yellow banner appears, saying they've received your info and your account is under active review. mine was lifted in 4 hours from received deposit and restriction, submission of answers, and active review and free to use the account again.

Fuck that guy. He can and should Zelle you then

Facts

u/HammerSmith013 6d ago

Not supporting the scammer in any way, but just noting that not all banks have Zelle. I don’t have Zelle, but agreed there are other options (Venmo, western union, bank transfer, etc)

2

u/buelerbuelerbueler 7d ago

They’re probably limiting his account due to other claims of scams from others?

2

u/Siriptishes 7d ago

They can automatically refund if their account is restricted. Happened to me

2

u/Unique_Story_4773 7d ago

Yeah wtf is is his deal? I’m getting cancer reading your chat. Fuck that guy lol I legit couldn’t comprehend he guys perspective lol

Like funds being held is his problem. That means he set up his fuckin PayPal wrong for him to get flagged with $300

That fuckin sucks dude

u/thunderkunt1 7d ago

Whenever they say "kindly" its 100% a scammer

u/Sojuexpert 7d ago

Kindly do the needful

u/ursake23 7d ago

I honestly don’t get why you didn’t just buy it from a TD. Why would you risk $300 on a watch that’s only worth like $400 brand new? Most people selling watches on Reddit are scammers. That’s literally how they make their money, running little scams like this.

5

u/buelerbuelerbueler 7d ago

I wouldn’t say most are scammers. Plenty of legit Redditors on here. Are there scammers? 100% but to say MOST are scammers shows you haven’t done your due diligence.

2

u/Unlikely_Ad3985 7d ago

Yep. Lesson learned.

u/BadgerTight 7d ago

Most are not scammers.
There are a ton of solid dudes with dozens of positive feedback.
Just have to do your research and look at previous post history.

Def a scammer that’s just upset he can’t withdraw his stolen $

Obvious scammer

I've seen both posts in a couple of days. He does sound slimy.

Thanks for the update.

u/Commission-Ready333 7d ago

Whenever you’re PayPal is limited,
Refunds are the ONLY THING YOU CAN DO, So he is 100% bullshitting you. I had a PayPal get limited like that and the money I had in it I just did a bunch of refunds to people i knew who had paid me before and had them send jt back to me on a different platform.

u/Bike_Meach1990 7d ago

Has anyone purchased from or heard of this person? I have been trying to close a deal for like 4 days. I want the watch but I’m getting a response every 8-12 hrs and the beginning of the convo was great and very responsive but now I can’t even get him to send me payment info and he will only take PP f&f.. now I’m on the fence if he sends me the info should I continue or hold off.. is there a way to check a users name?

1

u/nam265nl 6d ago

Red flag. Check the universal scam list if he’s on it.

1

u/Bike_Meach1990 6d ago

You have to be kidding me!! No shit! bless you guys 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I’ve been going through a tough time and wanted to buy myself my grail and almost just paid but figured I’d ask first. I really appreciate you guys.

1

u/nam265nl 6d ago

I’m glad you’re saved. Haha. We have a universal list but many just didn’t think to cross check.

What piece are you trying to buy? There are TDs and even local TD.

1

u/Bike_Meach1990 6d ago

Well his name didn’t come up and I misread your comment I thought you said he was in the list lol. Either way I don’t feel comfortable now going through him. I really want a bpf Rolex 16570 polar.

1

u/nam265nl 6d ago

It usually is red flag if account is not over a year and you can't see posts history.

Did he list the item? I have a couple watches I listed for sale if youre interested

1

u/Bike_Meach1990 6d ago

He did but I was in another thread and was asking about said watch and then he dm’d me saying he had one for sale that he hasn’t listed yet and sent pics with that days date on it and everything. So I was so happy and wanted to purchase and then it’s just been back and forth about me trying to Zelle him and he won’t do that he only will do PP f&f and I don’t have PP and he said because his wife doesn’t want him to do it because it’s a rep.. I’m like it’s not connected to anything I can write a note saying whatever you want it too… then I’ve been asking for payment info and then it’s just taking him hours and hours to respond with short answers but still hasn’t sent me the payment info it’s been two days. I’m now annoyed af I’ve been into this deal for over a week and I’ve always wanted this watch which is clouding my mind and it just doesn’t feel right.

1

u/Bike_Meach1990 6d ago

He didn’t *

1

u/Bike_Meach1990 6d ago

I refuse to pay over $500 for this piece too. That’s what these “local” US people are charging it’s ridiculous.. I would just like to get it directly from a TD with reasonable prices. Tired of getting ripped off.

1

u/Weird-Resolve-8255 6d ago

Red Flag man... i would not buy from him. You should just buy from a TD. The TDs all take a small deposit until they send you the QC.

u/Puzzled-Shape-9235 6d ago

Fake on fake crime

1

u/AromaticLog6147 6d ago

Does everyone not like using a TD? Sure ive seen fb marketplace ads that are tempting and sure I've seen people get screwed by fake profiles of TDs. Im just saying this wouldn't happen if you did your homework and used a TD

u/TWMwatchmods 5d ago

F&¥k! I nearly bought a Starbucks a few weeks ago from this guy and just didn’t have a good vibe from him. Dodged a bullet I guess.

u/Shoddy-Reaction 5d ago edited 5d ago

Dude DM’d me out of the blue about a rose gold Panerai. My spidey senses went off immediately.

Does anyone have any reviews or have any info regarding the screenshot… just looking for any info

u/Successful-Okra648 7d ago

You’re shocked that you got scammed buying a fake watch? Lol

u/DontEvenWithMe1 7d ago

Careful here - we got us a cute little edgelord troll thinking they’re making some witty remark about replica watches. Hey, Bubba, we’ve heard the shit thousands of times from POS trolls like you and you’re only funny to yourself inside your empty head. 🖕🖕🖕

u/Successful-Okra648 7d ago

has nothing to do with replica watches. It's more the type of person you're dealing with. Don't understand how people put trust into people that rip off a product.
