Possibly scammed by "Hopeful Upcomer". I sent him $25 on FTP and we were talking on MSN - sunddenly he is "offline".

Does any one have any advice for me?

I will keep you all posted if his name is cleared.

Sorry to hear that.

I hope you don't mind posting what you know; specifically his FTP name and MSN name. This won't go very far towards getting him to repay you, but it might save the next guy some grief.

I banned Hopeful Upcomer (aka BallinPro) on July 15th.

Give the two sites involved the full details. They won't be able to help, but they may record that the other guy is an alleged scammer, and hopefully they will not allow further transfers into his account.

For others, apart from the suggestions in the OP and throughout this thread, my general advice would be that you don't send first to someone who registered in the last couple of weeks or so, and that you don't deal with someone who contacts you by PM when they haven't posted in this thread.

Please let us know this guy's playing names at the two sites.

Give the guy the benifit of the doubt and give him some time to get back to you. If not then suck it up and be happy it was only $25.
Did you look him up did he have good feedback?

I am very new to transfers, and didnt know how to look up feedback.

But I did receive this PM.

"i have 40 bux on stars now if u are interested. i wont send first because i was scammed by someone named hopeful upcomer."
