🚫Do not use u/gabsss_exe as a proxy buyer⚠️

u/gabsss_exe replied to my r/InternationalShopper post: https://www.reddit.com/r/internationalshopper/s/DnrzNOXt0J offering to proxy-buy an item advertised on Instagram from a seller based in Egypt.

They then deleted their original comment and had me send three Wise transfers, totalling $105.58 AUD to Kenyan accounts they supplied. Unfortunately the transfers were completed prior to becoming aware to this scammer. No item was sent and no refund was offered.

They will claim that no funds were transferred despite receipts and email confirmations all showing that the transfer was completed. They will also ask for more funds to be sent and try to pressure you.

They will try to get you to transfer money or ask to pay by Crypto. They will try to get you to use payment methods like Remitly or Xoom and also try to get you to use platforms like Discord, WhatsApp or Instagram in an attempt to move the conversation off Reddit.

Another user identified this account in an existing scam-alert thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/internationalshopper/s/pYtbHrxZUv.

Please beware of this account, guys!

🌟Positive Review for u/ray-de-armas 🇮🇩IND -> 🇦🇺AUS

🛍️ Massive shout out to u/ray-de-armas who provided his unparalleled proxy buying services shipping from Indonesia to Australia

✅ I first contacted Ray for his services after a different proxy buyer service i had previously worked with advised me that they did not provide services when purchasing items from Indonesia which Ray was able to accommodate with no hassles involved

📲 Communication with Ray was excellent as he made sure to provide regular updates throughout the entire process from start to finish keep me informed every step of the way

📦 Several delivery options was offered to choose from along with a detailed breakdown of the fees involved, the package was also photographed prior to shipping to the final destination and later arrived in a short turnaround time

🌟 I highly recommend dealing with Ray not only for his impeccable service but also his friendly and professional demeanor to ensure customer satisfaction by going above and beyond! Thanks so much for your great work, Ray!
