Activity: 0% Longevity: 38% | | SCAMMER ALERT! cikog is a scammer!
I write this post to alert all the genuine members of this forum to beware from this scammer. 3 days ago i just experienced the worst day of my life; first time got scammed by a man who is in this forum with the username of "cikog"
i bought few vccs from this man and he told he has withdraw-able cards also. i had some 180 day passed limited paypals and i asked whether he can help to withdraw my money. as the vcc transactions went without a problem i thought this man is honest and i send the full balance of $240 to this man's given card. we agreed that he will give me $190 back to me. but after my money gone to the card this scammer now not responding to skype at all. all these last few days i tried to contact him via skype and that ******* is not answering at all. took my money and disappeared. i tried to contact him thorugh this forum by PM but he blocked pm as well. but i can see he is visiting this forum by seeing the last activity date.
i know i have done a very foolish thing to trust some unknown man to do such a financial transaction. but i write this post to alert other members so they can beware from this scammer and similar ones. don't ever trust a man who only met from internet. i already contacted some tech guys to track this cheater's location by tracking data and i hope the process will get success. i will not let this easily go. also i curse this scammer to be have a very painful death soon.no one can enjoy life by having this kind of scammed money.

Thread will probably be deleted because it makes the forum look bad. This is why all of the mods practically scream to only buy from approved vendors.

kindly request not to delete this thread. this scammer is still doing some buisness outside market place. so this thread will help other members to beware from him. or else moderators have to take actions to ban these type of members from forum before deleting the thread to make this forum better place.

I'm sure he will be banned. You should be reporting him to the mods now.
But that won't stop him from opening another account, which is why it's important to only buy from approved vendors.

Why people keep buying from non authorised sellers I just don’t understand...
That member has already been banned on the forum
Only buy from Forum Approved vendors and this will not happen

If its too good to be true, it probably is.
He'd go through all that effort for $50? when he can have the whole pie. |

Sorry to hear that happened to you.
Hate to sound like a broken record but you really should have expected this... Deal with approved sellers ONLY. And figure that if s a service is not offered theres a very good reason for it.

You took a chance, it didnt work. It happens. Im sure you have taken plenty of chances in the past that have worked out. No one has a flawless record.

Don't buy from unauthorised sellers and this will not happen
If anyone is unsure if the members is authorised to sell or not just PM any MOD and we can sell you either way
