But if they have bought and paid you, that won't be a scam anymore and you could careless what they'll do next. However, the problem starts if they've used your name already so, that's one thing to worry about. They have studied this technique and probably took them a few weeks to strategize. Be careful everyone and thanks OP!
tabas, There is no buying and selling here. Nobody is getting paid. I am sure of it after reading the similar threads that are available on this forum. No I haven't used my real name but some random words, not even a famous figures name. So there is no doubt that this person is a scammer! $8k for a valueless name? Man that's nuts!
Actually, it's not your name that I'm pertaining but that profile of that guy, the scammer. But yeah, he's definitely a scammer. If that $8k is for real, drop the money first we'd say to that prick.
