Server admin scammer

[ThePsychologist]

Hello developers, I'm ThePsychologist, admin from the spanish community Squad Spain, recently we had contact with a person (THIS GUY IS CALLED <AHPOS> iSi7 ® ) who carried a server for us, "not charging money" only wanted some donations for the posibility to continue with the server. This turned to be a scammer because he was hiding information and donations that went directly into his account without our knowledge. One of our players told us that donated him 80€, thing that this guy didnt said to us. All the servers that he "hired" only lasted for weeks and the Ip changed a lot (which probably means that he is changing provider all the time or are trial servers). Said this, the guy who payed 80€ wanted to help our community (he was tricked by this guy disguising himself as an admin or an important person in our community), but seeing that he couldn't"make money" with us he created another community ( Squad Hispano ) to recruit new people to see if they fall into his tricks. Long story short his server is [ES] <AHPOS> SPAIN SQUAD. I would like to contact any admin to see if we can do something with this guy that is trying to sacm more people. Thank you for the help.

Also you can see that if you click on his "new community" there is a paypal donation link attached.

Did your guy donate that 80 through PayPal?  Use his credit card?  Either way, have him contact them and have a chat with their anti-fraud group and attempt to get his money returned.  Worth a shot. 

 

Has anyone got this twits SteamID?  Contact Steam and see if they can punish him too somehow.

I'm guessing this guy? http://steamcommunity.com/id/iSi7

if it was a donation through paypal nothing you can do, a donation is a donation, but if you paid for something you should be able to get a refund.
Nothing I can do about it but remind people to stay safe out there.

it was through PayPal, we are checking all the options to see if we can stop him to scam more people. Nad yes SuicidalChair that is his account. PayPal told us that they are aware that this guy is "tricky" it is no the first time that someone reports him. And still if you see him in squad is always on his server trying to see if people connects to it. He was catching some of our players without our permission to see also if he could make profit with them and the server. The guy who payed the 80€ was refunded by the man himself, but he did it because we are tracing him in this and he knows that if he does not refund the money he is gonna get in trouble.
