Reported User: harlequins
https://xmrbazaar.com/user/harlequins/

I can see that this is not the first time he has been reported.

I purchased a Bet365 account along with a bank account linked to the same identity, so that I could deposit and withdraw safely from my Bet365 account.

First, he gave me a Neteller account, where I deposited €50 to test the deposit process on Bet365. Both accounts (Bet365 and Neteller) were banned at the same time when I tried to deposit on Bet365. Harlequins managed to get the Neteller account unbanned, BUT decided to keep the €50 from the account without my permission, claiming he needed to pay the mule — but still, he did it without my authorization.

Anyway, Harlequins told me he would provide me with a new Bet365 account and a new bank account, both tied to the same identity. He kept his word and gave me both (Bet365 + Grey account). I had clearly asked for an old Bet365 account, but what I received was a completely fresh one. He was so unresponsive, taking entire days to reply, that I decided not to argue further.

The use of the two accounts went smoothly. I deposited into the Grey account, then into the Bet365 account, everything worked fine. No issues.

Then my Bet365 account got limited — which is completely normal, no problem there. So I decided to withdraw my capital and the profits I had made over a few days, to the bank account linked to the identity. Surprise: I couldn’t withdraw — because the bank account Harlequins sold me was not based in the correct country.

In short, the bank account was based in the UK, but the Bet365 account was registered in Kenya, and Bet365 requires a Kenyan bank account to process withdrawals. I started to panic, since I had already deposited quite a bit of money into that Bet365 account.

I contacted Harlequins, and he told me I would need to buy a Kenyan bank account linked to the Bet365 identity. I was so stressed that I didn’t even realize — in that moment — that it was his mistake and his responsibility.

Still trying to solve the situation, I asked him what the options were. He told me I could either buy the Kenyan bank account for €700, or pay 30% of all funds I managed to withdraw. I tried to negotiate a more manageable solution and proposed to rent the Kenyan bank account tied to the Bet365 identity for €300. I sent him the payment in Monero, hoping to then get access to the bank account, withdraw the funds, and send them to myself.

I sent the additional $300, and now Harlequins has gone completely silent. He had already taken several days to respond after the payment. Now he’s just dragging things out, going in circles.

And if you’ve followed this story carefully, you’ll see that Harlequins had planned everything in advance.
He knew I wouldn’t be able to withdraw.
He knew I would come back to him for help.
He knew I would pay to recover my funds.
I paid — and now there’s nothing. No response.

Harlequins is a scammer.
I have all the evidence of our conversation on Signal. I am fully available to provide everything and explain the entire situation in detail.

The total financial loss is approximately €3,000.

Thank you for reading.

EDIT 24/12/2025 :

I had written this scam report more than a week ago, but after I threatened to post a scam report in the Bazaar chat, harlequin decided to reply. He told me he had family problems and that this was why he’d been absent. Being understanding, I decided to give him another chance (of course, I’m not naive).

So, harlequin decided to give me the details of a Kenyan bank account linked to the same identity as the Bet365 account. Everything went as expected. I copied and pasted exactly everything he gave me, and one day after my withdrawal request on Bet365, Bet365 contacted me and told me that the funds had been returned and that the bank details were incorrect.

I passed this information on to harlequin, and he told me he absolutely didn’t understand, but I pushed him to contact the bank. He told me he did, then came back more than 24 hours later and told me that in fact the account had been blocked and was now unblocked.

Fine. So I submitted another withdrawal request on Bet365 yesterday, December 23rd, and I waited. In the meantime, harlequin told me that the owner of the bank account I rented wanted to take his account back within the next three days, so he put me under enormous pressure and basically forced me to return the account to him, even though I paid €300 to be able to withdraw my funds, even though I still hadn’t withdrawn anything…

And then today, December 24th, 2025, I checked my Bet365 account and, surprise, the withdrawal had been refused again and my funds were returned to my Bet365 account. They clearly stated again that the bank details provided were incorrect. So what harlequin gave me was incorrect. I told him this, and that’s when he started full-on rage-baiting, telling me I was talking “shit,” that he had never seen anyone so impatient, that I judge people, calls me a complete retard and just makes up absolutely anything and everything, claiming that I had banned all the accounts (lol, yes of course I would go out of my way to get accounts banned where I’ve deposited more than €2,000… makes total sense…), in short he blamed me for everything. And he decided to return the bank account to its owner (the one I rented for €300 to make the withdrawals that I wasn’t able to complete).

As of now, it should be noted that the total loss is still the same as before, meaning more than €3,000. I reiterate my accusations: harlequin is 100% a scammer.

I will also add this, a message from harlequin:

“This guy can fuck this up. I had an idea. Let's do this all up once since if we do splits it's gonna take days and he can fuck us up without withdrawing all the funds. We left hopeless”

So basically, to explain, harlequin is clearly telling me to withdraw the more than €2,500 I have on the Bet365 account in one go… a message to which I replied with a laughing emoji. Because of course, the bank account I rented for €300… I don’t have access to it, and only he and the account owner do.

And one last clarification: I have the entirety of my conversations with harlequin saved in HTML, JSON and Markdown files. So there is absolutely no problem on that side, and I can provide absolutely everything that’s needed — all the evidence and all the files, at any time.

I am open to an amicable solution. That means either harlequin fully reimburses everything I have lost (+ €3 000), the entire damage suffered, or he sorts out the situation he himself put me in so that I can recover all of my available funds from my Bet365 account (+ €2 500). These are the only two solutions I can accept at this point.

Thank you for reading, and sorry for this long text, but I’m devastated that it has come to this. This guy has been stringing me along and making my life miserable for a month now.

I would wish to reply to this guy. First I'm the one who told this guy to explain this to Ailia. I'm tired of him, threatening me. He came for a bet365 account and asked for how he can deposit and withdraw. I told him he needs a funding account that matches the bet365 names. Neteller is one of them,I told him of netteler and accepted it. The issue with this guy it's mishandling accounts. At first he banned the neteller, I asked if I can exchange him the neteller with astropay. Mind you all these apps are accepted by bet365 for deposit and withdrawal. So I wonder when he says I knew he's gonna come back yet those are the same apps used on bet365. After giving him the astropay he can't be able to login. Then I gave him one last solution, a bank since also bet365 accepts that. Before even giving him a bank account he banned the bet365. He put a blame on me still. I just told him this isn't the way to do business. He does a mistake and blames you. Since I didn't want to destroy my reputation with him, I decided to do a fresh bet365 and a virtual bank account matching names. After some days that's when he comes back to me saying the account is restricted and got funds in the account. He sent me a screenshot which the bet365 chat moderator asked him to provide a bank account in the region of the mule for the withdrawal. I agreed with him, I will sort out for him. I reached out the guy who sold the account to us and he was ready to either sell or rent the local bank account. I came and told this guy, it's better buying the account rather than renting coz it can be risky when the other guy also sees the money. He said renting was his option. We went ahead and rented the account. This was last week, normally a bank transfer shouldn't take more than 3 days. So this guy tries withdrawing the money and he sents me a screenshot after a day that the money was refunded back to bet365 with whatever reasons I don't understand. He tries again and it does the same. Takes a whole week, the owner of the account is asking each and every time why I'm not returning his account since it's been a whole week. He's saying he will recover the account manually via the bank if I don't return, and on this side, the guy is unable to withdraw from bet365. This guy is very Unappreciative, I'm tired. And I told him the only issue with him is pretending that he knows what he is doing yet he doesn't. If a bet365 moderator texts you that the only way you can withdraw is this, then he/she must have seen something suspicious with what you doing with account. I can't make up all that, it's the terms of the company. Will appreciate a feedback from admin.

I will allow myself to reply directly, because it turns out that this gentleman is obviously omitting the important details or twisting them in his own way so that they fit his story, which is obviously not the one that can be found in our conversations and which I can of course provide as soon as an admin asks for them.

First of all, no. He is not the one who told me to speak to an admin or to file a scam report, obviously, the proof will of course be in our conversations where either he gets angry or he tries to fix the situation (buying time). It has been three weeks that I have been warning him about a potential scam report, three weeks that he clearly sees that I am warning him, but that I do not do it. Obviously, when yesterday I said that I was going to file a scam report, he told me there was no problem and that I could do it, because after I had said this four or five times already, he was fairly sure I would not do it, that is exactly why he is now telling you that he is the one who told me to speak to an admin when obviously he did not think I would actually do it. With proof to back this up, a few days ago, in the Bazaar chat box, I said I was planning to file a scam report about a user (harlequin), another user asked me to say who I was planning to file this scam report about, and I said his name (I think it was denistheguy who asked me). And when harlequin saw those messages, he immediately sent me a message asking me if I was the one talking “shit” about him… In other words, for someone who supposedly encourages me to file a scam report, he looked very angry that I might actually do one…

Next, on the matter of the handling of the accounts, we will be brief on this topic, but I still want to point out that this dear gentleman is a know-it-all, very sure of himself and convinced that other people were born yesterday. That is why you can find expressions he uses such as “he mishandles accounts,” “he got the account banned,” “he makes a mistake and blames you for it,” “he pretends to know what he is doing when that is not the case.” In short, a very pleasant guy and not arrogant at all… But since this dear gentleman is so intelligent and accuses me of getting the accounts he sold me banned, he will have to explain to me how it is that I, while being just as stupid as the day before, am not having any ban issues with the current Bet365 account nor with the Grey bank account… How is that possible? So do I supposedly get the accounts he sells me banned purely for fun or for my own amusement? The accounts where I deposit my own money? Let me remind you that he quietly got the Neteller account unbanned, the one where I had deposited €50, and kept that money for himself without my permission… Another omission on his part, once again…

Let us continue. For Astropay, I was hit with a facial recognition check as soon as I tried to log in to the account, even though I had taken every precaution, but unfortunately that must also be my fault according to him.
Another omission on his part is that from the moment of the failed deposit via Neteller, I did not log back into the Bet365 account, and when I logged back in, it was banned. And what is more, he says: “he got the Bet365 account banned. And he blamed me again.” Hilarious, isn’t it? Because when the admin reads the conversation, he will actually see that I do not blame him at all for that. Since I answered him, and I quote: “I'm sorry, but unfortunately I'm going to have to ask you for a refund. I've spent too much money for nothing. I know it's probably not your fault, but in the end I've spent over 200 USD and got absolutely nothing.” (message dated 2025-11-30 18:24:45) Can anyone here tell me where exactly I am blaming him in that? Admin, if you doubt what I am saying, I beg you to ask me for the conversations, and you will be able to verify for yourself that we are dealing here not only with a scammer but on top of that with a massive liar.

I repeat my question. If I am really as stupid and ill-intentioned as he claims I am, then why do I have no ban issues at all with the current Bet365 account and the Grey bank account he sold me? How is that possible? You will also notice that after acquiring those two accounts I left him a good review on his profile, proof that there was no problem at that time.

“As I didn’t want to destroy my reputation, I decided to create a new Bet365…” Well… let’s just say you had sold me junk and taken my €50 from the Netller account without my permission, so obviously… you were kind of forced to. And above all, you have absolutely no proof that I got the accounts banned. This accusation is totally senseless, I really wonder how a man as intelligent as he claims to be can use that as an argument in his defence.

Let us continue… Indeed, I got back to him almost two weeks later (not after a few days…), I used the Bet365 account from December 4 to December 15, and it turns out that Bet365 restricted my account. Something that is completely normal. Since I am a professional bettor, all my accounts end up restricted because I happen to be a winning bettor, and bookmakers are very much in the habit of restricting those accounts — something that is well known publicly. I am surprised to learn that this somehow comes as a shock to harlequin, given that he has known this from the very beginning of our exchanges. Once again, all the proof is in the conversations that I will provide to the admin as soon as he asks for them.

I would like to come back to yet another omission from our dear friend: “He sent me a screenshot where the Bet365 chat moderator asked him to provide a bank account in the region of the mule for the withdrawal.” What he says there is correct, indeed, but where some details matter is that he was absolutely aware of this from the start, namely that you need a bank account matching the name, date of birth, address and… country… something that harlequin did not give me. The Grey bank account is a UK-based account… You are not convinced he knew this? He himself showed me screenshots where he had already done this exact process with another one of his clients. He knew perfectly well how all of this works. Those screenshots can be found in our conversation without any problem. I have saved everything. In short, yet another omission that suits him very well…

I continue, another distortion on his part… When I told him that the withdrawals were not going through with the Grey bank details, he immediately told me to buy the mule’s bank account for a price of €700, a price that is far too high, absolutely outrageous. You might say “yes, but that’s the price of a bank account,” and I would agree with you, but it is not my fault if what he sold me was not based in the correct country. I explicitly asked him for a bank account linked to the Bet365 identity with which I could deposit and withdraw. He sold me an account I could deposit with but not withdraw from. And he knows this perfectly well. So at first I suggested renting it for €200, a price he refused, then he raised it to €300, and both he and I were supposed to have access to the bank account for as long as it took us to withdraw the funds from Bet365. I accepted and paid. It turns out I did not have access to the bank account for a single moment.

“Normally, a bank transfer should not take more than three days.” Yes, thank you, great god of intelligence and knowledge, but let me remind you that you gave me the bank account details on a Friday and that I requested the withdrawal that same day, and that when you make a transfer it is counted in business days, so not the weekend, so obviously it takes longer… And I know that you know this, but you are deliberately treating us all like idiots. Because sure, you can take me for an idiot if you want, fine, but if you think that when I say I have the entire conversation saved that I’m bluffing, I’m not sure the admin will appreciate being taken for an idiot as well when he sees our conversations in black and white. Oh yes — and I almost forgot. You gave me the bank details on Friday, December 19th, 2025, even though I had paid you on December 17th, 2025, and you completely disappeared for two days after being paid… You’re not mentioning that either, are you? Oh but wait — today is December 25th. And since you’re so intelligent, are you sure that from the 19th to the 25th is “a week”? Counting three no-business days? Are you stupid or are you doing it on purpose? Probably a bit of both…

Yet another omission on his part. Yes, I am not able to withdraw the funds, and Bet365 is very clear about this, there is an error in the bank details provided, meaning the ones he gave me. Ah, wait, maybe he will say that I copied and pasted them wrong, or that I did not fill in the right information in the right fields? (spoiler: he cannot say that, because I sent him the withdrawal form three or four times in screenshots, so he would have told me if I had made a mistake).

“This guy has no appreciation, I’m exhausted.” Oh, poor little thing — are you the one who paid €120 + €50 (which you stole from me without my permission) + 300€ and ended up with nothing functional and more than 2,500€ blocked because of your mistakes? Are you the poor victim in this story? Do you really think anyone is going to believe your little play? I have my doubts about whether you even know the definition of “appreciation,” despite the great intelligence you tried to sell us in your gibberish, I have BIG doubts…

“If a Bet365 moderator texts you that the only way you can withdraw is this, then he or she must have seen something suspicious in what you are doing with the account. I can’t make all that up.” Indeed, you big liar, you are making it up. As a professional bettor, I am in contact with many other bettors who also use Bet365 accounts, and yes, they also get restricted because they win, but they have never had a single problem withdrawing. Bet365 is absolutely clean on that point and even if they restrict you, they always pay winning bettors. So no, that theory also collapses.

In short, I obviously had serious doubts about his honesty, but now I no longer have any. Dishonest, liar, scammer. And I choose my words carefully.

Once again, as soon as an admin wants them, I will provide all the conversations, all the screenshots, all the evidence… absolutely everything he wants and will want.

With that, I apologize to everyone for these long texts, but unfortunately I have been exasperated for quite some time already and I no longer had any solution other than the scam report.

Thank you for reading.

Let me explain well. All what you paid for I paid the guy. I haven't gotten a single thing. First you banned the first account I had paid the other guy. The second account I gave you I didn't ask money from you. I used my profits I got from your previous account you banned. The €300 you paid for renting doesn't go to my pockets. I don't own that account, so I had to pay mule the full amount. You stuck at €300 which I told you well and good. I won't benefit from this but let me send the full amount to the guy and rent you the account.
Then the screenshots I sent you were from a client like you who had similar issue. I fixed it for him, he didn't complain at any moment.( For further clarification he can come and respond to this)
Just accept you mishandled all the accounts I gave you and banned them. Now you blaming me. You have stressed me out alot. First one , second one , the payment app I gave you.
