What accounts?

I think he meant himself. Flooding the forum with meaningless shitposts just to farm some petty rep points, might not be a scam, but it is definitely a spam. I think cgtrader should definitely take a look at his account and consider limiting his access to the forum.

User accounts that are recently sending messages saying, "Come and verify yourself and receive $400."

@LemonadeCG I've seen you simping for CGTrader before (company man huh?). Maybe you're late to the party but CGTrader was hacked and all our e-mails were leaked.

@LucasArt, if you'd pull your head out of your butt, you'd probably know my general attitude towards cgtrader and how it handles this latest blunder. And if you'd read again the message to which you replied, you'd probably figure out what i wanted to say. But of course thinking is hard, it's much easier to open your mouth and show everyone how ignorant you are.

But this is a very dangerous issue for someone who is facing it for the first time and doesn't know what it is, right?

correct - i'm fairly savvy - and this one confused me as the email sits within the platform so the help domain looked correct.. CGTRADER should be sending out a followup message saying these are fake?

cgworker20 wrote

Yes, this is true and the email I received came from CG Trader management. But the CG Trader website should manage this issue through robots and artificial intelligence.

they are scams... never go to their addresses... I received one now... but do they think that 3d artists who work with computers every day are so stupid to believe it?

this is the scam text:

You report it to CGT and ask them to fix your response rate. I have done this plenty of times for different scenarios where Ive been accused of something I didnt do. CGT happily obliged.

Good afternoon, colleagues, designers! What do you think is the right way to behave in such a case!

- A person bought a model from me, I saw that he downloaded the purchased files, a couple of days later I discovered that this purchase was not counted!

I wrote to the Sgtrader employees where this purchase disappeared - they answered that, FOR SURE, maybe, Most likely, it was done by scammers, from the bank, a refund was received and we returned the money, we tried to do everything but ... (it was not their money that disappeared, so that we could do something ...)! In short, the answer was this, sorry and goodbye!
- It is interesting that they send money back to the bank, but withdraw from me!
The employee sent a link to an article, because of what all this happens, and why they send money back - there I found a means to combat this hackwork, Employees can send receipts or other documents to the bank to show the bank that the person bought and downloaded my files,
To the Question, the Employees sent a letter to the bank with receipts -
- But alas, there is no answer, they are silent!

Sorry for my bad English, but I think I managed to convey what happened!

And so I wonder, what would you do in such a case?

if the purchase was made with cloned or stolen credit cards... as thieves usually do there is nothing to do... it is not Cgtrader's fault in that case....

Sorry, I don't think I'm fully understand your text, but from what I've understand - you can check in the sales reports transaction id for the product, which was sold - and with that information you can contact directly to bank helpdesk (or whatever it naming) to check the status of it.

Can you tell me how to do this - where to look for the transaction ID, and I do not have any information from which bank the return was! I really want to do this to understand the meaning of why they do this!

If you click "My Sles" - there will be transaction id column with information similar to this "pmt-5350cf90-6e62-4a9e-89dc-88002fd00ac8" But I guess this is only happen, then the product was saled and the sale was confirmed - so CGtrader recieved the money, took their commision and proceed payment to Hyperwallet. Sorry, I think I don't fully understand your porblem from the begining - it looks like your customer really use some stolen/blocked etc paycard - so the payment was not confirmed and cGtrader not recieved money for this...

No, my client didn't buy anything from me. He just sent me a message under the title of CG Trader Admin saying come and verify your identity and get $400, while most of my models are free and not worth $400. :D

Есть это код , но как его использовать я не знаю, в каком сайте можно проследить это транзакцию. если это возможно вообще . Если есть какой нибудь инфо, буду рад узнать !
Вопрос в том что человек купил файл , скачал все файлы, ну как обычно, но проходит примерно неделю и от меня снимают эти деньги (40,80$) , меня сотрудники нечего не говорят ( я считаю нормально, чтобы они сами предупредили мне что произошло , а не я интересовался и узнал откуда пропали деньги )! написал поддержку куда пропали деньги - вот что они отвечали ( копирую - и вставлю ответ сотрудника )

"" - Such refunds are chargebacks or payment reversals we received regarding the purchases of your models. Most likely either the details of a stolen credit card were used or or the buyer has issued a chargeback right after making a purchase.
- Unfortunately, these kinds of refunds are not controlled by us, they are done by the client's bank and cannot be prevented on our end.
- CGTrader uses a fraud prevention system already, however, eliminating 100% of chargebacks is impossible, especially when dealing with virtual goods.
- The problem is bigger than the 3D market - stolen credit cards can be used instantaneously after the theft and sometimes the security system is having a hard time identifying such transactions.
- Most of them are being successfully avoided, however, we cannot stop all of the fraud attempts.
- More information about chargebacks can be found on the following page: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/chargeback.asp
- Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience this has caused. ""

Что касается они получили деньги или нет, я думаю- конечно изначально они получили деньги, что позволили покупателю скачать файлы, а потом от банка поступило жалоба, и потом Cgtrader обратно отправили деньги.
Ладно я думаю если это было не 3д модель а например кольцо от картие , или дорогой принтер ( которые тоже могут купить онлайн ), я не думаю что фирма картие скажет - ну ладно что делать , потеряли деньги но некто же не виноват , это же мошенники украли ? и зачем если это 3Д модель - то нечего страшного ?
Второй вариант , я могу брать карту жены и купить модель а через пару дней жена заявит банк , что типа потерял карточку- ( или другая причина , не так уж важна ) и банк вернет деньги обратно !
Есть и менее вероятный вариант, но как вариант тоже надо рассмотреть - Что по сути - Сотрудник мне просто НАПИСАЛ что тебя обокрали и все ... не показывает не какой документ, или письмо от банка, что смотрите вот заявления банка и.т. На данный момент не отвечают на письмо ! намекаю на то, что меньше вероятно но возможно что это дел сотрудника CGTrader ( выходя из не конкретного ответа сотрудника ) !

Вопрос остается прежним, что мне сделать чтобы возвратит деньги или хотя бы узнать точную причину !

In this case you difenately has right to ask cgtrader support from which bank was purchase and what is transaction id (bank transaction id). With that information you can contact bank support and ask, why the transaction was canseled. In any case, this is a controversial issue and you can challenge this decision - so that you are not obliged to pay for your goods because someone did not block their card in time
