The point of it is that by exposing them they will have to create a new account to scam with.
It says that a refund is offered and you can still keep it. I see absolutely nothing negative for you. But the answer from another user makes 100% sense. That for later scams as soon as a positive reputation has been built up.

Lol Did I say anything against it? No. Did I suggest that the answer from another user makes more sense? Namely exactly what you are now also referring to, that it will be used for future scams. I didn’t say anything against rating the seller badly because it is the right thing to do. That you should definitely report them.
I have not objected to anything. Only that it was said that there is no money back if the picture in the message clearly states that he can keep the item and have his money back.

If you take the bribe you are as bad as the one offering a bribe.

Take the full refund, proceed to leave the review as is. Best of btoh.

Take the bribe and update your review to inform people they’re bribing for positive reviews.

“the thief gave me money to shut up, I see nothing negative for me”

If you just want to get it wrong. In the message itself on the picture there is nothing negative about what OP said with no money back. The answer of another user has explained how the scam is what makes 100% sense. Which also makes it obvious that it serves as an owner bribe. OP just didn’t point that out.

Yes, from the individual person that is a perfect deal, nothing monetary to lose but they can get something. Only other persons will suffer. Which is exactly why everyone here calls it a bribe. Which is why you saying that completely neutral makes it look as if you think that is good and should be done.
What exactly are you arguing for or against at this point?

This was a great answer with an explanation. lemm.ee/comment/18878997
I’m just saying that his text doesn’t explain that others will be scammed later. The fact that he then writes no money back while in the text on the picture exactly that is offered does not make the actual fraud any more obvious. With the explanation it makes sense that it is used as a bribe but without the explanation it is not so obvious.
Of course, I do not condone fraud and welcome any action against it.
