Description
This user was selling 3 $10 iTunes cards and 2 $25 Amazon cards, we talked on discord and came to the agreement that I would pay $48 on PayPal. I sent him the money and he claims to be looking for the codes and now he won't answer dms.

Proof
<http://prntscr.com/m3k7cu> (Confirms that he has received payment and is looking for the codes.)
<http://prntscr.com/m3k7m7> (Claiming that he is still looking for the codes)
<http://prntscr.com/m3k7uc> (Stops replying to my dms)
<http://prntscr.com/m3k852> (Sent the money to him, filed for a chargeback now.)
Looks like a legit dispute. Hes browsing the market as we speak! oof.

OP you should do some research before buying anything on HF, there are 3 open disputes against this user so why would you buy anything from him? and sorry for your loss
People will scam for nothing these days, it's sad.

Sadly I got scammed from him today.I am new so I didn't saw it coming until it was too late. I didn't even created a contract as I didn't knew it before.Lost my hard-earned money(52.5$) 😟


http://prntscr.com/m3zcdw [Dealt with him through pm]

http://prntscr.com/m3zdjx [ He kept saying he is waiting on confirms.He also tried to lure me in buying more cards from him and his
method]
http://prntscr.com/m3zcr5 [ I gave him chance and waited for an hour and asked him too but he didn't reply while being online]

http://prntscr.com/m3zfca [ waited for several hours but he didn't reply and got offline]

http://prntscr.com/m3zh6x [ payment proof]

He exploits new members who don't know the forum and its characteristics well.That's just sad to see that how such people roam the forum freely and just ruin the reputation of such a useful thing for no good.

yes that was my mistake I didn't see his profile before and studied the market well.
UPDATE: Opened a dispute on him on PayPal, and then he escalated it and today I got an email saying that he has sent "proof" of delivery of the gift cards (which is a lie because I haven't received anything and he should have no proof whatsoever).

After receiving the email, he dms me on discord after asking me to close the dispute. https://prnt.sc/m46p16

He claims that PayPal will rule in his favor since it's a digital good.
Any predictions or advice on how to win this dispute? What should I do?
