    I was not scammed but @Admin i believe your aware invoices arn't real money so attempted scam here.
    A person who claims he from this site could be from powerbot because i dont release my skype here so no clue how he/she got it.
    Thought it was odd they didnt want to go through Middleman service to buy my runescape account and didnt show proof of his playerup user but yet agreed to vouch me.
    I obviously 100% knew when he/she wasnt willing to send the 140$ friends and family claiming "but thats refundable" which would only benefit him if anything happened....
    So just warning to people this should be shown paypal invoice does not mean they sent the money. I will post a quide below showing proof of how people scam through invoices

    Just want to help people understand invoice is not money to your paypal balance.

    Also skypes can me immiated just like k / i / k 's and instant messangers
    All ways people can scam people by

    Skype id: narcicysst

    I'm sure he's going change his skype now that he or she is exposed

    Suggestion we should have a quide on how to prevent invoice scams or a quick note that sellers see
