Original Report Summary:
The scam report titled “It’s a Scam, no data no ‘support'” revolves around a fraudulent site that promises the sale of compromised accounts, gift cards, and credit card information but fails to deliver on any of its promises.

This report indicates a scam operation, misleading potential buyers with promises of instant services and guaranteed satisfaction, only to defraud them of their money.

Original Site Claims and Reported Fraudulent Practices:
According to the original description of the site, the marketplace claims to offer PayPal accounts, credit card details (CC Infos), gift cards, and gaming top-up codes at discounted prices. The site promises “automatic” service, with no wait times and immediate access to purchased data such as phished PayPal accounts or credit card information (termed “Full CC Infos”). Additionally, the platform emphasizes its “six years of service” and claims a 90% satisfaction rate among users, despite evidence from this scam report indicating otherwise. This user states that they received no data after their transaction, and the site’s feedback section and customer support responses are either falsified or non-existent, counter to the site’s claim of responding within 2-3 hours. This discrepancy between the advertised service and actual experience suggests a bait-and-switch scheme, luring buyers with assurances of smooth transactions and guaranteed service only to defraud them.
The report further elaborates on the fraudulent nature of the site’s offerings. One of the site’s advertised products is compromised PayPal accounts, which are claimed to be loaded with money and ready for cash-out. This, of course, raises the question of legitimacy and legality, as phished accounts involve illegally obtained credentials used without the account holder’s consent. In this case, the user was led to believe they were purchasing a valid PayPal account, but instead, they received nothing in return. Similarly, the “Full CC Infos” refer to complete credit card details that can supposedly be used for online purchases, which is another illegal activity involving stolen or fraudulently acquired credit card numbers. Once again, the scammer provides no such information, leaving the buyer without the product they paid for.
Lack of Customer Support and Misleading Site Reviews:
The user’s attempt to resolve the issue via customer support was met with no response, as detailed in their report. Despite the site’s claims of prompt support services and a satisfaction guarantee, the buyer received no assistance or feedback, confirming that the so-called “support” is a mere tactic to create a façade of legitimacy. Furthermore, the scam report suggests that the feedback and reviews posted on the site may be fabricated, as the experiences of others do not align with the fraudulent activity experienced by the victim. The report highlights that the site advertises itself as being verified on various darknet forums and claims to be listed on the Hidden Wiki, which is often used to lend credibility to sites on the dark web. However, these claims are likely false, as they serve to mislead potential buyers into believing they are engaging with a legitimate operation.
In conclusion, this scam report exposes a well-crafted yet fraudulent dark web operation. Despite promises of quick, reliable service and glowing customer feedback, the reality is that users like this report’s author are deceived and defrauded, receiving neither the data nor the support they were promised. The site operates under the guise of a reputable marketplace but is, in fact, a scam designed to steal from unsuspecting buyers. The terminology and offerings on the site—ranging from PayPal accounts to credit card information—are all tied to illegal activities, and the lack of response from customer service further underscores the scam. Users should be wary of such operations and avoid engaging with sites making similar promises of illicit goods and services.
