ENOUGH of this already.
I paid the requested $400 "deposit" to someone who represented themselves as Elizabeth at the number given - proof or it didn't happen?

Further, I was told that Elizabeth's brother, Ram, would follow up with any details. The deal that was agreed to was the $400 LTC deposit and balance on receipt of $1600 in LTC to the same address.
A few hours after this interaction, Ram contacted me and began what was to be a 12 hour interrogation via text (yes, it felt like one) about any issues HE had with the information that was being requested to confirm before the rig was shipped. I was offered and pushed to purchase more than one rig many times because, "Ok good, someone is looking to buy the other two. Are you wanting it still as we want to get rid of it. We can ship them all together which only equal 30 pounds and we save money on shipping. Or I can sell it to someone else definitely up to you." I declined more than once.
After all the requests for information, being called a liar time and again (this is a crypto transaction - I sent money and expect a product, no BS - but apparently this is lost on the seller(s)) I requested my LTC back - as I was told originally by Elizabeth that if there were any problems I could get a full refund, and was told by Ram, "Non refundable, but thats not the point
Im asking for your username, Just want to clear my suspicion." HIS suspicion? They had my username from the forum, they had my LTC, they had my shipping address, they had my phone number.
My own concerns, of course - possibly stolen rigs being fenced - were suppressed by Ram as crazy talk, "You seem delusional do you need help? Please take this to the forums, she has all the proof for the rig." Why would I be concerned that they are offering to sell rigs for what amounts to 50% off the going rate? I wanted proof of ownership or proof of transfer before taking possession of the rig.
Long story short, I sent $400 in LTC for a rig and I'm likely to get nothing for it but to be interrogated by some scammer(s).
I'm happy to provide any and all info about this via PM - I've tried not to dox the scam here in public as much as possible and leave my opinions out of it.
Youre awfully wrong, I asked for full name and address. I trusted you and didnt check, I had someone interested in buying the other two and I asked you if you wanted. I asked to ship them all together so I save money on shipping you said no, you said its too much money to risk. Then say one the first one is delivered you will give me 4000$ + shipping. Wait what? You cant risk $1200 which my sister is doing down payment generously but youre willing to send $4000 right away after you receive one? Something off, ok so I check the address you gave me, it belonged to a completely different name. I search up property records I see name has no relation to you. I then search up your name and you gave me the wrong name, after doing some search I found your real name Stacey. I will release all address and information I received if you guys want to judge, I have had no problems with the other buyer who willingly put a &1000 down payment on two
