Hello all,

I got the services of LOWKEY about 15 days ago. After having paid him 1000$ he started to work in my campaign doing facebook ads. All was going well (but slow in results) and he answered all my questions until suddenly he stopped answering me. That was 1 week ago.

Since then, I have tried to reach him on Skype, by email and in this forum through PM. No answer.

My campaign finishes in 4 days and he is totally disappeared. The only thing I can think is I got scammed.

I just wanted to warn you all about him.

If someone knows him personally, I would appreciate if he contact him.

I trusted in him because we had a trajectory in this forum, but I can see that even a well-known user is nor a synonym of trustful person.

I hope this message prevents more people to be scammed by LOWKEY

Thanks

Wow, that's terrible. I assumed he was an esteemed member here after reading many of his posts. I hope everything works out for you.

Would be interesting to find out what Lowkey says, as it doesn't seem acceptable if there's an excuse like:
- I was busy/family reasons sick/forgot/something got stolen etc., as he found time to cash in your payment.
.
Keep us informed.

I actually recommended a user to him last year, I heard similar stories about a delay afterwards but no idea if that user got a full refund in the end.

Wow is there a way to report this?

I will keep you informed.
Still no news from him. My kickstarter campaign is already finished and funded. I can not believe this can happen with a user of good reputation and trajectory. In my opinion, 1000$ doesn't worth this.

If you paid with Paypal, you can always dispute it!

[Lesielle]

But paypal blocked the payment until the service was delivered so I had to sign as delivered so he could use the funds to invest in ads. The only problem was that he did not use them, he only stole me.

Aw that sucks I'm sorry that happened. I think that's also a red flag because usually if the Paypal is active enough the person gets the fund immediately rather than having to go about it that way.
