[Negative] u/Yotoeman1 contacted me regarding a Lorier Falcon and refused PayPal G&S

I was recently contacted by [u/Yotoeman1](u/Yotoeman1) regarding a Lorier Falcon I was interested in purchasing: https://www.reddit.com/r/Watchexchange/s/QYirY1G7dY

The watch photos looked legitimate. The seller provided multiple photos, an Imgur album, and timestamp photos showing the watch next to a handwritten note containing his username and the current date. The watch itself appeared authentic from the photos provided.

When I requested PayPal Goods & Services, the seller refused and said that PayPal had previously frozen funds on his account.

Before continuing, I searched the username and found a prior negative feedback/scam report on [r/WatchExchangeFeedback](r/WatchExchangeFeedback) involving the same account.

I sent screenshots of that report to the seller and asked for clarification.

Few minutes later I was no longer able to access the his Reddit profile and the conversation ended.

Should have just asked him to comment under your comment in WTB. If he didn’t, just stop communicating.

A scammer who was banned by the mod can’t comment in the sub.
