Default Think I've been scammed twice!!

Think we have well and truly been scammed outta £150, first off we purchased a camera from a seller on here, paid via paypal and after a month no camera has arrived! We contacted seller, said would refund us and no refund despite repeated pms, he has been online since pm's were sent and have had no reply!

Secondly bought an x box 360 off classifieds, seller didnt accept paypal so did a £120 bank payment into his account, said was posting yesterday and we would recieve today, have messaged him asking if it was sent, another pm saying it hasn't been recieved, seller has been online and not replied!

Have we just kissed goodbye to £120??

ouch.

Not sure how it works with bank transfers, guess now you know why they didn't want to do the paypal route.

Tough hopefully with the xbox 360 it will be sorted, with the camera however, it's been a month I say NAME AND SHAME!!
