Many days later came to my mind that "Birds of the same feather flock together." I thought the scammer who scammed you is a scammer and it was at the beginning phase of that person. You have made the mistake as you are a hacker (scammer) you have nothing in a loss as you will recover that fund by stealing others' money.
If you were legit then you would not deal with such a newbie and even if you make any deal then you would not go first with a newbie with a negatively trusted account. At least you could use escrow. You have no way to use escrow as the escrow will never serve the purpose of you.
