[Fuyuan888]

Someone from this forum trick me to buy coral from another member last week . This person approached me and got my zelle payment for almost $400 promised me he would ship my coral per text conversation. But today when i tried to call him and text him so many times, the number wasnt working anymore

That username isn't coming up with anything either .... Not sure how Zelle does things but I know it runs through your bank account. Can you dispute with your bank? Explain it was a scam? I'm sorry this happened to you.

Sorry this happened but so many red flags. Username 1234 probably didn't had any meaningful post, they reach out instead of you, asked for payment thru Zelle when Sticky calls out for Paypal.

Not sure how Zelle works for reverse payment and claims but good luck.

Hate to see this happen in our little community.

Couple red flags though, should have screamed NO.

Oh man! Sorry that happened!

Ouch! If something looks too good to be true, it might be. Always 'deal' with someone directly. use paypal or the like.
Again, so sorry this happened to you.

Hope everything works out for you. Bank may be able to stop payment. Seems like every safety protocol on the site was circumvented though.

Sounds like a dispute not an emergency since nothing is dying in your tank
