I'll use the same post I made on another forum because I decided to create and report this on all the forums he's a part of, so no one else falls for this scam.
Additional Information:
Well, it is with sadness that I write this scam report after so many years here. This is the first time I've been scammed by someone. Of course, not using a middleman (MM) is always risky (use an MM, folks), but since I was in a rush and the amount wasn’t as high as I usually work with, I decided to make the payment to "test" the tool as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, it seems I fell for a scam.
Besides the zip file they tried to make me install on my personal computer—which Kaspersky flagged as a Trojan Stealer—the file doesn't even open on any VM. To make matters worse, it seems the support has now blocked me. Additionally, after carefully reviewing the post and comments, as well as checking other sites for the same post, I noticed identical messages from different users (but with the same content).
Unfortunately, I didn’t pay close attention before, and I’m filing this scam report almost certain that I won’t be refunded. But I do this as a warning to everyone else.
