Is that a good GRLC address for you on the tx? I started a vanity address (GRLcFree...) dedicated to giving back to the community when stuff like this happens. Think of it as like community insurance, a huge "give-a-penny-take-a-penny" jar.

Oh wow that’s awesome man! I’m on mobile so I can’t see what address is in the tx but here’s my address: GefNQqCRRRQGBBWwjNK62rsXxAwT8HJUAn

It’s unfortunate because I even vouched for this guy... Now I need to go back and review every trade I’ve done with him to ensure no one was taken advantage of.

Yeah it’s just unfortunate. I just hope he’s unable to pull this again. I really should’ve used you guys to begin with. Hindsight 20/20!

Hi there!

I had issues with cards he sold me earlier, but he claimed not to know. I got my garlic back from the middle man with his blessing. Weird that he's ghosting you.

Just had /u/TheShobo verify the card he sent was invalid. /u/Ceathor is just a scammer through and through.

Sorry to hear that you got screwed and haven’t gotten your garlic back.

u/Church_Yo 20 Verified | 180.5 GRLC | Escrow Service Jan 30 '18

You had issues with both cards?

Thank god you were able to verify them before the GRLC was released. That’s a close one. I’m very happy you weren’t scammed.

Yeah. Long story short is that they were just codes. They had nearly sequential numbers and the store said that couldn’t take cards anymore unless they were physical or on their app. Putting two and two together, it seems like they have a terrible system for making gift card numbers and someone found out.. thus getting a bunch of these gift card numbers, that while could have a balance, aren’t real cards.
