Someone selling firewood, nice! Expect looking at the all fake feedback, it looks like scam number 123...

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/Woodlogsseller/

Linking together is https://xmrbazaar.com/user/Moregangs/ which links to scammers:

Another fisher with nets set:

What makes Dove fishy, is the EDU email "sellers" and their fake alt reviewers.
I take it Dove and the following handles are all one and same:

Reported User: NiceCrab33 (NC33)
Order # and Date: #aFvu on 2026-05-20
Summary: User NC33 has engaged in fraud. I requested a refund of the amount paid to NC33. No refund has been received to date.

Details:

I posted a listing and NC33 placed an order. In XmrBazaar Messenger, I provided the necessary information for the task. Per our agreement I sent a 10% payment of the total fee after accepting NC33's order in the amount of 0.06596913033 XMR.

Below is the significant aspects of our XmrBazaar Messenger chat:

- May 29, 00:37 | NiceCrab33: Yes I got the documentation am doing compilation of photos.
- May 29, 19:10 | darkfem: Hi, thank you. So I can pay you the 40%, will you please send me the below photos along with the XMR address to use?
1. One photo of “Non-Approved Entrance“ item 1. (orange circle).
2. One photo of “Non-Approved Footpath“ item C. (red arrow).
You can upload the photos to https://uploa.cdsp.cz/ and send me the resulting link. Thank you for your help.
- May 29, 20:02: | NiceCrab33: 88RFdihws6eXNBs99Q1nPYEUjrNCXKQ3oEJTmWnhMMBNKTkWngVfD7UM3FC9Xjg7PSS7KtePgR86F9xC7YGdWn4uHuks3pb
- May 29, 20:03 | NiceCrab33: I tried uploading it to the other link sent earlier but it didn’t work.Can I make a compilation on msword then forward it via proton Mail
- May 29, 22:05 | darkfem: Please try https://send.artemislena.eu/ instead. I am only looking for two photos at this time so I can send you the 40% payment. For the final set, raw photos is requested. .jpg or .png. No compilation is required. Rename the file names to reflect the location “A shot 1“, “A shot 2“, etc. Thank you.
- May 31, 17:04 | darkfem: Hi, did you receive my last message of May 29 2026 at 22:05? Will you please send the requested items by Mon Jun 1 2026 11 am US PT? We have some other parties waiting on the documentation. Thank you for your help.
- Jun 1, 13:52 | NiceCrab33: https://send.artemislena.eu/downloapd/bdbd2f134c7f604f/#3-2Gq1DYRGaVfqPW1muhHw
- Jun 1, 14:05 | NiceCrab33: https://send.artemislena.eu/download/95825450ca3c7ae5/#UGw3HWA6WRiIUKHG-SdFzQ
- Jun 1, 18:13 | darkfem: Hi, I received the two links you sent. Below are the results.
- A. “This link has expired.“ for https://send.artemislena.eu/downloapd/bdbd2f134c7f604f/#3-2Gq1DYRGaVfqPW1muhHw
- B. https://send.artemislena.eu/download/95825450ca3c7ae5/#UGw3HWA6WRiIUKHG-SdFzQ shows a single file with a filename of file_00000000578c72468ce0ff2ee0aea53d.png
- The image of item B. above is not from the trail in question. The AI image detection tool of https://sightengine.com/detect-ai-generated-images) gives 99% likely to be AI-generated.
Because of the above two issues, I cannot accept the image as verification that you were onsite. Please provide the two photos requested by June 2 2026, 11:00 AM US Pacific Time. Note the following:
- 1. Upload both photos together in a single link using https://send.artemislena.eu/
- 1a. Set “Downloads“ to 20.
- 2b. Set the expiration period to 7 days.
- 2. Send photos per the below:
- 2a. One photo of “Non-Approved Entrance“ item 1. (orange circle).
- 2b. One photo of “Non-Approved Footpath“ item C. (red arrow).
- Once I receive and verify the two requested photos, I will send the 40% payment to the XMR address below.
88RFdihws6eXNBs99Q1nPYEUjrNCXKQ3oEJTmWnhMMBNKTkWngVfD7UM3FC9Xjg7PSS7KtePgR86F9xC7YGdWn4uHuks3pb Thank you. I look forward to receiving the photos and providing the 40% fee
- Jun 3, 11:51 | NiceCrab33: They’re not AI generated photos,I only edited them using AI
- Jun 3, 19:23 | darkfem: Because you did not provide the information as requested within the timeframe you stated, please send 25 USD = 0.06596913033 XMR no later than June 4, 2026 12 noon US PT. Thank you. Here is my XMR Address:
8A8NCzQHniAXuZbP5r8D6yYHmLvi4pB6cjDE7Nn3RCSecZznkayZ5vuGBBUvbCEUXvJRJUw88VRBULYVcNSi3iv36reGtfc

NC33 stated the photo was not AI-generated but then admitted AI was used to edit it. My instructions clearly said "raw photos".

In my assessment, NC33 has engaged in fraud. He has not delivered the documentation as mutually agreed upon. He has not refunded the 10% payment amount as I requested.

What further actions can be taken regarding this matter?

Thank you for your help.

Originally was through escrow mediator but had issue with wallet so trusted direct 0.5 XMR. Extended many times and vendor failed to produce their tie of the agreement. After many times of saying complete and checking and it not being complete vendor said they will refund when i say i will report him. Wallet sent 5 times and each time says my friend is sending or my friend sent i will get tx and does not reply or replies with another excuse. I trusted because of rep and they are dishonest.

Hello, I do agree he needs a refund. But at first we did one account. We kept on verifying and he said it wasn’t supposed to be that way. We had a long conversation and kept on redoing. He has proof I have sent an account two times but he wasn’t satisfied. We took like a week before talking and the team behind had paid the owner. So when we talked again we were replacing with something different. The thing we tried again kept on failing. Since the team had paid the first guy am the one to pay him directly, I told him am away from the office and when am back I will handle that. Even if am the one going on a loss. Checking at this point, I tried doing what he needed but wasn’t satisfied which took a time. He can prove I sent several details to him.
Cheers

Yes you tried to fulfill what you were hired for and each time you claimed complete it was not. You decided you can not do it so you said you will refund. You said your friend will send and you will get tx and then stopped replying.

Yes it’s true, I just need to get back to my office and do that from my wallet. I can’t send it from the main office wallet. I will be back soon to handle that. I walked out of the office last week well knowing I have only one order to fulfill but it turned out to be difficult. I thought it would be easy handling it outside like others. It would be a shame to me ripping someone 0.5 Monero. Apologies

Hi, I would like to report the user Sharpbazaar https://xmrbazaar.com/user/Sharpbazaar/
I purchased XMR for 300 Euro by paying with SEPA instant transfer, following the instructions given to me in chat (instant transfer was sent Yesterday at 16:14 CEST)
More than 24 hours have passed since the last message sent to me in chat, in which he said he "would confirm immediately", since then he has not replied to me again.
I chose direct payment without Escrow due to the seller's reputation

I was contacted by the seller, who told me they received the transfer but that the funds went into review and now the bank could not process the deposit and they will have to refund it to my account in 2-4 business days.
I think this is a correct response; also from my experience it's something that banks and payment processors sometimes do.
I wait for the next days.
Thank you for the assistance

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/CerezoOsaka talked me into not using escrow because they had previously done work for another trusted member of the community, which was verified. They then ran and scammed me.
#BfRd was the initial deposit. The rest was paid off platform.

The "voucher" (AshleyJones) in hindsight realized their previous account was https://xmrbazaar.com/user/TokyoDream which has a scam warning.

CerezoOsaka scammed me out of $50, which again was due to me being suckered in by his friendly demeanor. Never again will I send anybody XMR as a goodwill gesture for them taking a risk on a cash by mail deal. Wall to wall scammers here.

The same guy scammed you twice, I pieced together he is the same guy. He targeted you once, saw you paid, and tried again. When did it happen?

That's one thing we should teach people. If you get scammed once, the scammer is likely to come again and do the same trick. Sorry that happened to you.

I'm admittedly a sucker who trusts people way too much. This is Monero, and you'd think I wouldn't be such an empty skulled XMR donation machine. The scamming happened with both members within a short time frame. Vow: I shall cease being an idiot.

Last review from CerezoOsaka Warning Rating 5 (1)
Coordinated fake review again w/ a (apparently known?) scammer.
What's the statistical likelihood of a scammer casually doing 1 single good honest trade w/ a (currently allegedly) platform manipulator, vs that account being perhaps yet another one of virtualp2p's sock puppet accs?
The scammer comment (Safe Handling Via Mail):
"The XMR community is so much better with people like virtualp2p, I made an error on my end, which I was responsible for and without his honesty, I would have lost $100, however, he was very honest, and communicated clearly. 100 stars for this guy, just 5 wont do justice"
Why did the scammer bother w/ a mail order? Scammer sent him a mail order w/ $100 extra? The scammer? Math ain't mathing...
I'm aware this last paragraph has it's speculative side, but we also might be facing a potential danger here.

I've looked at other reviews on his acc, most again look like sock puppet accounts that showed up out of nowhere, allegedly did 1-2 trades w/ this guy, and disappeared, never to be seen again. I understand some people use throwaway accs, however the level of this 1-2 time accs clustering under his reviews look sus in context of overall other sus reviews. Albeit there are some among them look legit w/ established platform accounts. Lots of overhyped, inflated, fake language in the sus reviews. User has legitimate trades, but legitimate trade count looks like a fraction of total trade/review count.

Yes, I've not done some stylometric analysis to match the fake review barrages with each other. But there're some patterns:
The reviews are not just clustered, they read as one hand. Within each burst, a single account cycles minor variations on the same template, interchangeable, content-free, transaction-detail-free praise: "Smooth transaction, great communication," "Quick and easy transaction, thanks again," "Highly recommend, fast payment," "AAA+++," "A nice service." The same compressed-praise register, same length, same generic enthusiasm, same absence of any specific trade detail recurs across InvisibleRabbit71, purrfect, RareAnt35 and WorldwideLaker alike. Genuine reviews usually vary in voice, length, and concrete detail; these vary only in surface wording around an identical skeleton, the signature of mass-generated text from a single source.
The launch cluster (Sep 11 to 15, 2025) shows the same: a flood of same month created accounts leaving the identical short five star filler, the fake trust seeded from early on.

This looks a lot like coordinated sock puppet account review manipulation at a massive scale and trade count inflation.
Do I know %100 there's bad faith, no, but too many suspicious patterns stacking on top of each other here, thus, the report for potential investigation...
Up to investigator if this's enough lead to warrant an investigation.

Yesterday I also noticed multiple reviews from a single account for virtualp2p. At first I suspected possible impersonation (similar to the scammer who previously impersonated me by using a capital i “I” instead of a lowercase L “l”), but it is a legitimate account https://xmrbazaar.com/user/virtualp2p/ .

The recent cluster of trades is most likely due to RetoSwap being offline: virtualp2p had promoted their services in the RetoSwap SimpleX group the day before.

virtualp2p is an established trader who also has been active on XmrBazaar for over a year. He has also donated 10+ XMR to the platform (not typical scammer behavior) and has completed trades with multiple well-known community members, not only one-time accounts. While I don’t know exactly why the recent trader chose to do multiple trades, I assume the trader chose multiple smaller amounts for safety rather than one large transfer.

So far, virtualp2p maintains a very clean reputation within the community.

Oh didn't I know the donation amount would come up to shield him ))))
A user donating certain amount doesn't necessarily absolve them of potential platform manipulation, some might argue might even make it more likely they would try to make their donation's worth w/ the "goodwill" shield they bought on one hand ))))))

Someone showing up and immediately doing that # of rapid trades was dead giveaway for platform manipulation on LocalMonero, speaking from experience, this is irregular behavior. I talked with an other trader here w/ p2p trade experience I won't name in public w/o their permission, they suspect similarly as well. This is not one time event after retoswap problem either as my post outlined, but string of many...

I just received a DM tip from user Holoh:
"Hey. For a $10 tip, I will send you all screenshots of Virtualp2p buying likes to manipulate the system, I literally did some of the work for for him"
I'm not sending $10 to find out, sure might be another scammer, lol.

You think colluding w/ the user CerezoOsaka w/ scam label is merely a coincidence as well? A scammer showed up and said "Hey, you know what? Let me do an elaborate and effortful mail oder trade and make a $100 mistake on top of it before going and scamming someone!“
As you wish, I guess...

To clarify: virtualp2p’s account was created in June 2025 and has been actively trading here for over a year (initially offered discounts) - not a new account that suddenly appeared in June 2026. The pattern you described as “immediate rapid trades” does not apply here.
The donation is only one point among several. More importantly, virtualp2p has completed trades with multiple established, well-known community members over time.
I receive similar “tips” and accusations from brand-new accounts against popular XmrBazaar traders on a daily (sometimes hourly) basis! The message from the freshly created Holoh account follows the exact same pattern. If Holoh does not provide verifiable proof of their claims within 24 hrs, they will receive a libel warning.
CerezoOsaka’s warning was issued for (mostly) off-platform activity + it was issued yesterday: like many such warnings, it could potentially be based on a false accusation and will be disputed.

“immediate rapid trades” isn't for the seller acc, it's the alleged buyers.

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/InvisibleRabbit71/

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/purrfect/

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/RareAnt35/

https://xmrbazaar.com/user/worldwidelaker/

As I outlined in the first message.
I didn't make the claim seller acc has immediate rapid trades in isolation, the sock puppet looking accounts having them and showering his wall w/ same day rapid trade generic review burst was the pattern and the point. Both InvisibleRabbit71 and RareAnt35 have Sep 15, 2025 (Member since Jun 2025) 1 review that's looking like a plant, 2 accs same creation month same trade day! Going on to review shower later on at burst, bit too coincidental.

I hope you're right and all these patterns are merely an unfortunate, albeit unlikely series of coincidences.

If I somehow hear from @Holoh I'll post here.

Holof in his grace sent some artifacts for you:
https://drive.proton.me/urls/R0WR8BRNQR#fKGUziUlAsws

Now I obviously don't know the full validity of evidence.
Important to note I'm just the messenger for the artifacts here, haven't had the chance to examine the evidence myself.
Please let us know what you find out, should you decide to pursue the investigation.

I'd like to chime in to say I've been a happy customer of virtualp2p for quite some time, on this platform and Bisq. I think IDrive was also a happy customer going by the reviews.

Having been around earlier, the order bursts appeared to be due to a spot discount (up to 10%) virtualp2p was offering on their btc/xmr swaps. Some people repeatedly took that offer. I did not see anything wrong with that.

Although am quite sad to read that chat evidence above of fake reviews for cash, if it turns out to be true.

[edit] soulreaver immediately DM'd me to suggest that I am polluting this thread and that some kind of unified stance is to be taken against virtualp2p to cleanse this platform. I don't appreciate being dictated to like that by some newb control freak and so am not deleting this comment. FYI @AilliA 🧡
