This guy scammed me also last year. Here is my tale with him.
I met Yonotan many years ago, i would like to say 3-4 years ago. He used to buy watches from me personally, not through Watch Outlet or PureTime. I always used to ask him to pay WU or MG to me, as my personal PP was frozen years ago. He was a shaky customer, indecisive but also friendly, and he would order loads of watches, then he would place another order and then disappear for months, so i blocked him over WhatsApp as i didn't really have the time or patience to deal with someone like that. Anyways last year he got in touch with me over FB as we were friends on FB and said he wanted to buy more. I agreed and this time round i had a PP account, my fiancee's, so i let him pay via PP. I didn't see the harm in it as he had spent like $15,000+ with me in the past using WU & MG. He said he would be using a friend's PP as his was limited also. He sent me 2 increments of $400 - so $800 in total.
The watch gets delivered and then a chargeback occurs. I message him and he apologizes and says he will speak to his friend and he doesn't know why. He then goes on to blame his friend and that he was going to hurt his friend for this. Anyways this goes on and on and then i show PayPal all the proof that his package was delivered and that i'm an innocent party - but here's the snag... i have FB messages from him under my name, but he paid into my fiancee's PP account, so i don't have direct proof linking me to my fiancee, so because it was a CC chargeback through PP, PP does not have enough evidence to fight the chargeback. I got left with $800 out of pocket + the $650 - $700 the watch cost me to buy for him. About $1,400 lost in total.
We spoke on the phone and i basically told him i was going to get him for this, and he essentially told me that he is an "evil" and "bad" man, and that if i sent any of my relatives to his house (i have some relatives in Tel Aviv) that they would get very badly hurt. During this conversation he told me that he will correct everything, so i calmed down and said ok, correct it. He then blocks me on FB and that was that.
Also during this time i went onto his friends list and some of his friends accepted my friend request. I told one of them what happened and he was shocked and told me he would handle it for me - Israeli people are usually very nice, but then never heard from him again. I have a feeling Yonotan threatened or scared him away or his words were just empty words.
I literally have 13 pages of proof of all of this, i know his address, his tel no (if it is still valid), i know his Dad lives in Paris, that he has a young daughter, that he used to be in the finance industry but fell on hard times with that, and that he is a serial scammer with many scam reports on him from RWG and other places (just Google him). Would love to see my money back also!
