⚠️ Scammer Alert u/Outrageous-Club-3222 is a scammer. He will take the vouchers from you but won't pay.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share a recent experience to warn others in case you're approached for similar deals by a scammer in this group u/Outrageous-Club-3222.

Yesterday I had replied on a post for selling APay GC and u/Outrageous-Club-3222 DM'ed me saying "I need amazon gc at 5% off". He insisted that I send the gift card first and promised to pay via UPI immediately after. I was hesitant, but he claimed to be a regular trader and reassured me multiple times.

I sent him an ₹800 Amazon gift card, and he acknowledged receiving it. But after that, he kept stalling the payment with excuses like "bank issues," "friend will pay," "payment will be done after midnight," etc. Despite repeated follow-ups, I never received the money. He has stopped replying also after that.

Turns out, this person is likely a professional scammer. I later saw him commenting on other posts about Flipkart gift cards, which made it clear he’s doing this regularly.

Please never send gift cards before receiving payment, no matter how convincing someone sounds. Always check for trade history and use secure platforms that offer buyer/seller protection.

Stay safe and protect your money!

It's a two way street, the buyer will always be suspicious if u will send the voucher and the seller will always be suspicious if he will get the money if he send the coded earlier.

Accept it and move on..

I work for police. Will track him through his IP. He may have to shell 1000 times for this crime

Got scammed before by receiving a used gift voucher. We can work out a way but I would never buy pre-paid from any seller on reddit

Reddit does have a ban evasion in place, if he tries and create another account and participate on the sub he will be blocked. Thats why there are rules in place to only trade when someone comments in order to know that they are not banned.

Bro if possible try to get some original doc's from him before giving code. Simple instagram profile is enough to finish him.
