Recently got scammed by this guy . Only £7.50 but I feel as though I should make the report nonetheless. Completely my fault as I decided not to use a middleman and this is mainly to notify other members.

The plan was for me to buy £150 worth of Bitcoin off of him . The plan is outlined below :

I sent over the first paypal installment . Because this is my first time using paypall , he managed to talk me into sending it as a friend and family payment (makes me realise how stupid I really am )

My bitcoin wallet is still empty and I have recieved no furthur communication from the seller , hence leading me to believe I was scammed.

to be honest right. you have to do a PayPal dispute. because really this forum can't do much about him. Also, did you read this thread below?

I did indeed , he proved to me he was a trusted seller on another site and that convinced me not to use a middleman.

Only £7.50 so it's not a major issue . Also can I still do a chargeback if it was a friend's and family transaction?

but if he does not send the bitcoins in like 5 more days than open a dispute with paypal.
