Member went offline after I send the funds? How long is an appropriate time to wait ? - LayersOSImodel - Feb 1, 2020

just saw this thread https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6045822,

That's a good idea and decided to post my similar story,

I opened a buyer buy thread looking for someone to code a downloader in native,

This guy pm'd me https://hackforums.net/member.php?action=profile&uid=3006887

Saying he will do it for 200$, that will take 1-3 days to be done and he want me to send 20% of the price now to start to work, i sent the 20% at 21/01/2020, he went offline since 23/01/2020.

What should i do ?

He already has one open dispute on which he didn't even bother to reply so there's a good chance you got scammed.

Edit: hopefully you have some method of communication but if he isn't responding, open a dispute.

It says OPEN DISPUTES, you click on the number and you see the disputed contract(s). If you want to see the thread, you go to the claimant's posts and check the thread.

You can't open a deal dispute in the deal dispute forum without a contract. Process is fully automatic. At this point, you cannot do a thing about it except hope he didn't scam you. Dealing without contracts is a serious violation of policy, too.

Since he didn't scam only you, it is more then this.
