I got scammed in the Rolex Forums. Here is my story.

On October 8, I wired $13,750 to a scammer who posted an ad for a Batman here on the Rolex Forums. In retrospect, I'm pretty sure he was using a hacked account.

If you want to hear my full story including the steps I took to try and get my money back, with some success, I made a video about it here:

This was a really stressful experience, and it was embarrassing for me to make that video, but I think some here many find it to be a helpful to avoid making the mistakes that I made. Also, if someone does get scammed as I did, I think the video could be helpful in reviewing the steps I took to try to recover funds.
