I think I got ripped off, what should I do? - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

hybrid · 06-08-2003, 09:05 PM

Yeah, that's what pissed me off the most, I'm not some big "playa" or any stupid shit like that; I'm in fucking college, and struggling as it is. i don't have 200 dollars to just throw away.

Fuck this shit, work first, then pay. No more bullshit.

200.00 = 2 text books

And what did he do with my money? Probably just wanted some cash to go out & play with for an evening.

This is so fucked up.

pornJester · 06-08-2003, 09:21 PM

This reminds me of when people felt bad for SpaceDog and were sending him money and shit. I'm not sure if it was all a scam or if he actually was in need of help but he was a total jackass prior. The most money I dish out for people i don't know is some pocket change for a bum or a donation to an established charity. Everyone else can go to their friends and family for help, not some random acquaintance or stranger. I've lent money to people I've known for years and haven't got paid back in some cases.

JFPdude · 06-08-2003, 09:23 PM

This thread is more a feeler, to see if anyone else has any 'civil' suggestions to handle this. Additionally, I wanted to see if anyone else has had a problem with this person in the past.

It still has'nt quite sunk in that somebody is so malicious as to blatantly steal money from someone else, but it will.

If you have ever seen me piss over petty shit on the boards, you've seen that when I get pushed, I push back harder, and I have trouble letting go.

I guess this would be considered the first wave. If this industry has taught me anything up to this point, it's that I'm alone in this, and nobody is going to do shit about it but me.

i feel your pain bro, what's just as bad as losing the money is the fact that you feel stupid for falling for the scam in the first place. take it as a lesson learned, this could save you from falling into a more damaging scam in the future.

Wait - the dude hit you up today (06/08) asking for money?

Are you serious?

He just ignored ALL the messages I sent him all day yesterday (06/08).

UnseenWorld · 06-08-2003, 11:56 PM

Whenever a stranger wants to bum money off me, if I don't know them, my first question to myself is "Why is he hitting ME up? I hardly know the guy." The answer has to be that they have alienated all their family and friends and are looking for more fertile suckers.

But, hey, if you disagree, I could use two hundred bux myself!

Hybrid, I understand. Even if it was $10 this wouldn't make his attitude less bad. When someone lends you something, you need to return it back. Period.

All in all 200.00 to me is alot of cash. In perspective its alot to anyone. To be honest though it is a cheap lesson. This by no means you have to be ultra cynical. You just feel your gut out. What is it telling you? Legitamately helping someone and knowing it worked for them will by far outweigh the disguist you have right now. Good thing its not 2k in an even more believable story. Its all good man. Fuck you know keep pluggin the porn biz you got and laugh this motherfucker off when he gets his. Is he in Chicago cause im on him if so. Or even fuckin close? Wisconsin Indiana? let me know chief

iroc409 · 06-09-2003, 01:11 AM

i bartered with him and got $100 for 30 days if i hosted it instead of him hosting for 60 days for $250. technically it hasn't really been long enough to say that he cheated me yet, but i'm not looking with hope into this incident.

and assuming he does get over on me, makes me feel like an idiot and i'm going to be a hell of a lot more careful with people i work with. been fortunate enough not to get got so far, guess i've been lucky. adds quite a depressing mood to an already shitty day. oh well i guess

lesson learned. and it sucks, because i'm usually pretty good about decisions with money, and usually research the fuck out of things before i buy, but i was trying to "help a brotha out", he and i had talked before about content but i never bought. didn't have what i wanted at the time. i was also very, very tired. dammit.

should i just hope he comes through?? bleh.
