I issued a trade. $160 PayPal Friends & Family for a $200 Best Buy gift card.
He gave me the card to verify that the funds were on it. I completed a transaction with his gift card to purchase my own gift card. For some reason, Best Buy cancelled the transaction. When I tried to make a second transaction moments later, there was only $3.00 left on the card. LunarWolf98 had spent the remaining $197 at Best Buy.

I called Best Buy support and they told me that the gift card was used on about 6 items. Some shipped to store, some shipped to the following address:

3615 Nicholasville Rd Lexington, KY 40503.

I tracked this address to a place known as Simple Mobile (which seems to correspond to the PayPal account of simplemanpcs). I contacted LunarWolf98 & they are not being helpful. Refuse to issue me a refund even though they obviously ripped me off here. LunarWolf98 claims that they are 18, have no bank account, no credit card, & is using a friend's PayPal account. LunarWolf93 claims to no longer be able communicate with the owner of the PayPal account either.

I'm taking action to continue investigating & see if there is anything that can be done (seeking help from PayPal, Best Buy, and local authorities in Kentucky). At this point in time, it is safe to file a Bad Trader Report on this individual to ensure others do not fall for similar deals.

The terms of our trade were: I send my Nintendo 3DS XL in exchange for $50 USD via Paypal and an Interact Gameshark.

I've received $45 dollars and the Gameshark. He still owes me $5, and it has been nearly two months since I've last spoken to him, despite attempts to check on the status of our trade.

While I don't especially care about the $5, I would still like the terms of our agreement fulfilled, and I hope filing this BTR will get his attention.

To resolve this, I would simply like $5 USD sent to me via Paypal, friends and family.

He did not come through on our agreement for the amazon prime share. I have tried to communicate with Chris but it appears he has abandoned his account and stiffed other users out of money too. I gave him several months to pay me the $18 and sent him several reminders about it without him contacting me back. If he would have communicated with me I would have had no problem pushing the payment off even further down the line but he has not logged in since may 6th this year. I have since removed him from the prime share group starting today and if he wants me to pull down the BTR he will need to send my $9, through paypal/money order/walmart or best buy or amazon gift card.

Gave me some excuse about getting sick and unable to pay back. All his other debtor gave pay back except me when I was the only one nice enough to give him extension. It's been more than 2 months since he last responded.
