@Christian789 has also scammed multiple member on forum recently
Can you fill out this BST Dispute Form regarding this?
Can I fill that later out tonight when I get out of work? Or is this time sensitive
Whenever you have time - just want to make sure we log it all in detail so we can best assist when possible. Keeping track of trades going bad can get complicated whether its just bad communication or actually scammer - and then trying to keep track of repeated history - so its something I had planned to have for awhile and this was a good opportunity to implement it.
Just an fyi…
This guy (Kllyoslf) has used 2 IP addresses, one from Massachusetts and one from Moncks Corner South Carolina. With a couple of exceptions, all of dr filthy’s accounts seemed to originate from Irving Texas, and he used multiple IPs for those accounts. One was from Saudi Arabia. So as you can see, it’s hard to track when they spoof the IP or use a VPN.
Also had an awful experience with the dude and got had for about $120, definitely do not deal with him under any circumstances
For what it’s worth he did say he’d be “shipping” from SC. But obviously can’t believe anything the dude says
I’ve never been in contact with him.
a quick shout out for bst safety….
- always use paypal g&s, unless they are your literal friend or family
- don’t wait more than 8 days of radio silence to contact g&s and the mods. you have limited time working with paypal.
- if it looks, walks and talks like a duck, it’s probably a duck. watch out for those red flags, gut feelings, etc.
- bring it up in the community. we’re not trying to shame people here, just maintain a safe bst
Fat guy snacks 247 pretty much hit it right on the money. No pun intended.
There’s another thing I wanna bring up with those are adventurous enough to read, click on the following link… knowledge is power. For those of you up to reading the article and basically wrapping your head around the root meaning of it, you’ll understand that even though the primary focus is white-collar crime, there is a common denominator that common denominator is when you screw somebody else out of some money if you use the mail and not just USPS. If you use any mail carrier to commit fraud, it is classified as a federal crime
If you buy yourself something in the local penny saver, and you actually deliver it for the other person, pick it up whatever it is and the check bounces, based on the amount of the fraud, it could be considered a felony or petty larceny, which would be a misdemeanor. Because recognize you’re not using any mail service it’s an in person thing… so the law deals with that in a different way.
What if some punk aces you out of your money in a premeditated, deliberately intentional plan to separate you from your money without providing you with any product… If they use the mail to help facilitate the crime, then that is considered a federal crime. It may be even classified as wire fraud because besides using a mail service, they’re using the Internet to steal money.
Anyway… On a more serious note, it might establish a good baseline moving forward to recognize that this just isn’t taking your money for yo-yo or some side effects they never sent. This could just be the tip of the iceberg. None of us know if the same person that is scamming people on this forum, is using 20 different names on 20 different forms and hosing down a whole lot of folks. This person may be part of a multifaceted human crime wave
I understand it’s easy to say oh hey you guys and girls watch out for this dude Billy. Yeah I bought some string from him and I paid him $20. He seemed cool so I sent it friends and family. It’s been 11 years and I’m still waiting by the mailbox. I think he got me? Does anybody know Billy? I would recommend possibly not doing business with him. And if you do decide to do business with him, buy yourself a lawn chair. Because standing by the mailbox for 11 years, sure made my knees sore.

Sounds like maybe chase blackwelder popping back up
First of all thank you Andre for allowing the BST here.
It’s sad that this sort of thing happens (assuming it is intentional)
Also the fact that you responded with that just shows your positive character.
Could be, he was from the Charlotte, North Carolina. About 225 miles north. People do get around.
It’s strange, because the first two transactions I had with him went fine. Took him a little bit to ship, but I bought that black/copper half swap ti albatross and an ocean squall Aotus. I also bought a black wraith with the king wraith engraving. I think his package may have been my favorite ever unboxing.. he said i should try 5a, so he sent counterweights and a free g2 yoyo “so i dont have to beat up any of mine”… The yoyo he sent me was an OG brass ring arbiter(a-grade). Apparently he had no idea how rare those are when he sent it! There are maybe 12 of them, and they were only done in the one colorway… I told him and he said not to send it back to him. He also sent an mfd knucklebone and a yyr DreadG. Maybe that whole situation clouded my judgment when it came to making a third purchase from him. Paid for a Sea of flames council and a blackout mongoose. I haven’t heard from him since I sent the money 15 days ago
I canceled my deal of a peak 2 I was selling as he never sent the money and was using a middle man for paying me
Huh, still for sale? And how much? Asking for a friend
I sold it to another buyer who asked at the time I apologize Deeply
No worries brotha! Thanks for being honest and not scamming me lmao
Honest and clarity is key to a smooth transaction
