Good news, @Vey was banned a few days ago. Deetox has nothing to do with this. You messed-up by adding him on Skype even if the site clearly states in the rules to NOT buy server files from anyone, it's your own fault. This includes Skype. I hope you learned a lesson.

Edit: This was also announced here.

Totally agreeing with you here. This guy is ruining it for the people who want to be took seriously.
Even then, you should never monetize something like this, all it is doing is causing them to be selfish and hiding knowledge so other modders can't expand and work, it holds the whole community of modders back and prevents amazing releases from being created.

Try asking for a paypal payment reversal, if paypal detects any unusual activity on the scammer's account, then there is a high probability that you might get your money back. If the scammer has already moved the money somewhere else, there's also a high probability that the scammer's paypal balance will become negative, and that his account is seized.

OR, if you have used a credit card for the payment, OR if you have a credit card linked to your paypal account - just call your CC issuer/bank and tell them that it was an unauthorized transaction - that works almost always, even with legitimate transactions. (Sad but true)

And honestly, don't purchase files, there are so many good releases here.

The person should be banned from PayPal as well as on RageZONE.

I wish there was a way to fix this other than not to buy things from buyers that are not known in RageZONE.

Even a well-known-person could do this and the person who did it in this case could come back easily and do this over.

So we have to figure out a fix.

I belive banning the sales of server files is a good idea, these should be free for everyone, we are a community that helps eachother build off of another, making people pay to build for our community and enjoy? That's not right to me. But on the other side, many people want money for their work. So it's a hard topic.

The last time I've checked, RaGEZONE doesn't allow any kind of sales at all, with the exception of the MU Online section, and the Merchant Zone - where trades/sales are properly moderated.

These scammers are different though, since they lure the users into private messages and/or directly into skype.

Scammers get banned here on RaGEZONE as soon as they are detected, or when the staff team has a strong suspicion.

RaGEZONE has already warned about these type of scammers, as @CodeDragon indicated on his post.

As for Paypal, it's not that hard to shutdown an account, just send Paypal all the information you have regarding an account, and is most cases, the accounts are closed and refunds/reversals happen :)

Yes Definitely Keep ALL Updated Server Files and Clients + any Mods, Save Systems etc.. FREE... Keeping them for yourselves and charging money for gear load outs on your server is not being a part of the DayZ Modding Community at all, Its selfish, Same as telling everyone you have a server and not releasing the server files, If your not free sharing we don't want to know about it. Always Be Aware of the Scam Artists...
