A Uber tried to scam me. I have proofs. How to report correctly? - Straps - Nov 29, 2016
Hi, HF.
Today I made a thread because I am buying some AGC.
A user called "Cute" sent me a PM offering me few cards and asked me to add him on skype. I did. Then I asked for a middleman, he added a friend supposed to be the user "Japanese" here at HF and both tried to scam me.
Everything was really weird on the chat and I asked the "Japanese" he is the real one and sent him a PM here at HF.
Well... I will explain everything on the community alert I am gonna make.
I want to know exactly how to make this report against him. I can take screenshots of our conversation.
Can anyone help me with directions?

post on the deal dispute section with what happened and evidence and then your good. Also add him to the deal dispute database.

Open a community alert, if he scammed you open a deal dispute

Make sure if you post a deal dispute to include his name/uid in the title. It looks like he also scammed someone else.

Make a community alert here and make all your evidence structured and comprehensive.

This user already has a scam report, but I don't think Japanese would try to scam you.

Open a community alert about him and explain in detail what happened there.

Thank you for all infos!
Gonna make the community alert in a while.
He didn't scam me cause I didn't pay, but he tried.
Well.. About the Japanese... Was a fake. Not the real one..
The stupid guy just gave me a -3 rep cause I wasn't scammed and said I am a scammer. Lol.

search the uid in search, also check trust scan.
Even if a user doesn't have any reports showing, you might find something in a search.
Make a community report if you can

Take all the screen shots man and add it to the deal disputes. Luckily you caught it in time before getting scammed. Seems like he may be trying to exit scam
