Has Anyone Here Ever been Scammed Before?

When the ps2 1st came out ebay robbed me of 400, maybe 500, that was in 2000

Then I tried 2 sell cutco knives, but 1st u gotta buy the 200 buck show off kit. U had 2 make ur own appointments, which came from referells and nobody wants $200 steak knives.

Then 1 time when I worked at the mall, this nigga told me he lost his atm card but worked at the bank. So he writes a note, puts it in the deposit site for 400... then he takes out 200(which was the max back then). The whole reason I was doing this was cause he was giving me 50. He mad like I still owe him 200, I want my damn 50. He gives me the 50 and calls me the next day for the other 2. I tell him show up, he never does, he basically gave me 50 dollars of my own money and got me for 150. I called dude back bout 5 times and the bitch answering the phone acted like she aint know him. U live and u learn, I knew something was wrong when he said, I work at g&e too. How many ppl got 2 good jobs?

I did cutco to, I actually made money tho, n i still use the knives.

I've been had by one of those white van dudes, for a digital cam, they showed me this nice Cam, they wanted $250, but I only had $90 on me, after lots of haggling, they took the 90, I open the box and it was some old 1975 shit worth like $30
I am still pissed off about it and it's been like 6 years.

You met the dude in the white van too? "Oh, I got these extra electronic equipment from my company by mistake" bullshit. Luckily, I was waaaaay to broke to by anything.
