    [​IMG][/IMG] Felon Username:
    WarMachine8
    Complaint:
    I got him/her to put down some water I was told to give him/her the money up front so I did, I payed War Machine8 $150 but the mayor (simsballarat) wasn't on and so he/she couldn't do the job. I thanked him/her and he/she gave me a stack of ice (for some reason) and left. They did't give me my money back therefore I was scammed, and thus proving that WarMachine8 broke a rule ("Users cannot attempt to scam other users. If enough evidence is provided and the staff believe a scam was intended, this will result in a temporary ban against the offending user." and "A general definition of a scam in the context of EcoCityCraft is a transaction in which a user pays for goods or services from another user, and does not receive those goods/services in the agreed upon timeframe.
    Failing to uphold your end of the deal is scamming, and is punishable by a ban. Your continuance on the server may rely on you following through with your end of the deal, or refunding what you scammed, solely at the staff’s discretion."). So I asked multiple times to give me my money back ($150) and to accept my tpa's to come and collect the stack of ice, but they refused on all occasions. one time he/she said that in chat I said that I would pay the $100 for the tpa (which was not true I said "I will pay $100 and give a tp!") but even if I had, WarMachine8 would still owe me $50 which is still money owed. I don't really care about the money ( it was only $150 it's not much) but I don't wan't this player to scam someone for a bigger amount.

    Hi leon,
    Thank you for reporting this, although before the staff team can begin to investigate the scenario you must provide us with proper screenshot evidence. I've linked a thread that will take you directly to the tutorial on posting screenshots, which can be found by clicking here. I will be leaving this thread open for 24 hours, so please take this time to gather and post all your evidence. Please also keep in mind we can only accept non-edited images.

    Left open for 24 hours

    [​IMG][/IMG] I hope that, that works :) That is the only evidence as I didn't screenshot the conversation because I didn't think that I was going to be scammed :) hope that helps - leon :)

    Today I came on and WarMachine8 was on so I tried to get some evidence from him/her I asked how they were twice both time's they didn't respond and then asked why they weren't answering me but they stayed quiet probably meaning that they have something to hide ( scamming me maybe) or that they have done something to me ( maybe the scam) :)
    I hope that, that doesn't count as a threat or any rule braking - leon

    ok I asked WarMachine8 three questions
    1. do you remember placing water for me? he said and I quote
    "I can plce water" I said I know and repeated and he said and I quote "i dont recall"
    I then asked and I quote "did I pay you $150?" and he answered and I quote "i dont recall giving you a water placement" "srry"
    3."I am the person that was trying to get my money back do you recall?" and after a while I said "do you remember me?" and he aswered me with and I quote "no i dont"
    so I tryed to refresh his/her memory and half way through he interrupted by saying and I quote "srry im busy rn cant talk" "ok"
    so WarMachine8 ether has a bad memory (seeing as it was only last night) or he/she is lying :) sorry about being a hassle over a small amount of money, just don't want it to happen again :)
    the screenshots :) all 8 :) P.s. the place I am looking at is where the water was going :)

    Without screenshot evidence, I can not take action. We always highly encourage users to take as many screenshots as possible when doing transactions.

    From glancing at the provided screenshots, no rules were broken. There was no actual agreement between the both of you, stating he will be placing water for the said price. If you can manage to find evidence of an agreement, and the actual transaction we may be able to further discuss this issue.

    Thank you for your time I have no further evidence at the moment. It seems you can scam someone a say that you don't remember and get away from it :) bye - leon :)

    It is not so much that they can get away with it just because, it's that we can't punish someone without proof they did wrong. If you do find the evidence we need you can refile your complaint.
