Scammers Profile Link: https://cracked.st/mrdawson
Sales Thread: n/a (Telegram) 
Amount or Item(s) Scammed: 276$ 
Screenshots of Communication:  All informations here (screenshots of the chat between me and @mrdawson): https://cracked.st/Thread-Scam-report-against-mrdawson
Additional Information: I have vouch and real client of the order can testify that the refund went trough and that I haven't been paid.
Crypto address for a refund: Will give it when needed


Hello Cracked Staff Team!  https://cracked.st/mrdawson  scammed me by not paying the fee, he tagged me on Ref.sh chat on telegram saying to write him in dm, so i did it and then he asked me to process an Apple order, so i took the order and start working on it,he said me that we would have splitted the fee so I agreed with that. Once I finished to contact the Apple Customer Care he said me that he would have updated me for any email from the store,but in fact, I didn't receive any update. Today the real client of that order wrote me saying me that the apple refund went trough but I didn't know it(I have vouch too and real client of that order can testify it). The agreement was to split the fee,but we didn't agree on how to divid it(If 50/50 or 75/25 etc.). The fact that he didn't pay my fee made me very angry so now I ask to pay total fee for my succesful job and waste of time, without leaving any cent to that scammer. 
I will provide BTC,ETH,LTC or SOL address when and if needed.
If other informations or proofs are needed i will provide them,helping Cracked Staff Team to resolve that report as soon as possible.

I want to be straightforward with the administrators from the start. I have no sales thread on this forum, no service operating here and no prior communication with the accuser on this platform. Everything alleged against me took place on Telegram, in an external third party group called “ref.sh” which has no official connection to Cracked whatsoever. My identity was never verified through forum PMs at any point. 
 
I have no connection to this accuser or their service
I have never worked for this person, never been hired by them and have never had any business relationship with them on or off this platform. They dealt with someone on Telegram who claimed to be me. At no point did they confirm that person was actually me through Cracked  There is no forum PM, no platform conversation and no  interaction between the accuser and my Cracked account  whatsoever. This is the most basic step any operator should take before bringing someone onto their business and it was never done.
 
Show me the onboarding
The accuser claims they hired me as a worker, agreed terms with me, briefed me on their process and had me create a dedicated work account. If any of that happened, it left a record. I am asking them to produce it. Show the onboarding conversation. Show where terms were agreed. Show any form, intake process, or documented agreement that was used. Legitimate operations handling orders worth over a thousand dollars do not run on informal Telegram exchanges with no paper trail and no identity verification. If I was hired and onboarded, that process exists somewhere. Produce it.
 
Why I changed my Telegram username
I changed my Telegram handle once. The reason is straightforward. When the Sonic report was posted publicly on this forum, people immediately began finding my Telegram through it and contacting me to take advantage of the situation. This is not speculation. We can already see this behaviour evidenced by @ancientaccounts1, which contacted Kay directly while impersonating me exploiting circumstances. Changing my handle was a direct protective response to that. Once I released my tg @ it was reclaimed almost immediately by someone else. Any activity tied to that username after I released that handle is not attributable to me and the accuser has no way of proving which version of the @ they were dealing with at any given time.
 
The @ancientaccounts1 account is not mine
When I was asked directly in a group chat whether I was the same person as @ancientaccounts1, I denied it immediately and on record. My response was timestamped: "not me. waiting for this to be resolved ONLY VIA CRACKED." (April 5th) Beyond that denial, the screenshot the accuser submitted as evidence actually shows @ancientaccounts1 tagging me, @pad_1337, as a separate user in that same conversation. It is not possible to tag yourself. That screenshot does not implicate me. It confirms we are two different people. The claim from @HelloNames that I used @ancientaccounts1 directly contradicts this submitted evidence.
 
On the @HelloNames testimony
@HelloNames states that the user in question had a tag on ref.sh "issued by an administrator after he provided evidence that he was indeed the author of the post." That administrator is a ref.sh Telegram group moderator. Not a Cracked administrator. A third party Telegram group moderator verifying someone's identity carries no official weight on this forum. Any person can claim to be anyone in an unmoderated external chat group and receive a tag based on whatever evidence they choose to present. Beyond that, everything @HelloNames witnessed happened inside ref.sh with no verified link to my Cracked account. Their testimony is based entirely on the unverified assumption that my claimed @ on Telegram is me on Cracked.
 
On the ref.sh group itself
Every piece of evidence in this report originates from ref.sh, a third party Telegram group with no official connection to Cracked, run by administrators whose identity, standards and verification methods are completely unknown to this forum. Look at the pinned comment in that group provided in the video. The admin itself wrote that he was being impersonated by someone. Does this seem like a safe environment at all?  Anyone can operate inside that group under any name. Tags issued there mean nothing here. Logs from that group cannot be independently verified. The accuser constructed their entire case on activity within this external unverified environment without taking a single step to confirm my identity through Cracked directly.
 
On Rivo167's claim
This person claims I tagged them on Telegram and assigned them an order to process. Their entire claim rests on that @ being me, which has never been established through any official channel. They have produced no forum PM, no on platform communication and nothing connecting this to my Cracked account. They also processed a high value order based solely on a Telegram interaction with no formal verification or agreement in place. That is not something I can be held accountable for.
 
On the accusation that my explanation is too convenient
The accuser argues that my explanation mirrors what my @ said on Telegram and therefore proves we are the same person. This logic does not hold. The explanation is the same because it is the truth. The fact that someone on Telegram and I on Cracked are giving identical answers does not make us the same person. It equally suggests that whoever was operating as my @ was close enough to my situation to understand it and mirror it deliberately. That is not proof of identity. That is an assumption being presented as evidence.
 
The deletion of my Telegram was a direct response to threats
On April 18th at 14:27, Sonic Enrolls contacted me out of nowhere. By 14:31 I had received a dox threat. I deleted my Telegram account in direct response to that threat. This sequence is documented and timestamped. The accuser frames this deletion as calculated damage control. The timestamps tell a different story. The deletion happened because I was being blackmailed, not because I was being confronted about a scam. These are two very different things and the timeline makes that clear.
 
The harassment campaign against me is documented
I have screenshots showing my account @pad_1337 being tagged and threatened inside these group chats. One message reads "we got u here... we got u everywhere buddy," sent by Sonic Enrolls profile picture. This is not a legitimate dispute. This is a coordinated effort to pressure me in connection with the Sonic case and it is documented.
 
 
A final note on ref.sh
These events took place within ref.sh I would invite them to raise it with the ref.sh administrators directly. They are after all the same administrators who issued "me" a tag called "Sonic Slayer" - which tells you everything you need to know about the credibility and seriousness of that group's moderation standards. This is not a verified professional environment whose conclusions should carry any weight on this forum.
 
Conclusion
Every argument presented against me rests on a single unverified assumption: that my claimed username on Telegram is me on Cracked. That connection has never been established through any official channel. No forum PM exists linking the two. No on platform interaction ever took place. The ref.sh group is an external Telegram group whose admin verifications carry no weight on this forum. The @ancientaccounts1 account was denied by me in real time and is shown in submitted evidence tagging me as a separate person. My Telegram deletion is explained by a timestamped blackmail threat. Every third party testimony is based entirely on unverified activity in an external group. No onboarding, no agreement and no verified identity check has been produced because none of it involved me. The accuser has no services on cracked. So we can bring any external situations here for mods to deal with? 
I am fully available to cooperate with any admin investigation and happy to answer questions directly through forum PMs.

1) "Everything alleged against me took place on Telegram, in an external third party group called “ref.sh” which has no official connection to Cracked whatsoever": Ref.sh chat it's the chat group of the member @Refunding which is largely known and vouched. @Liars is in that group too. So you started your speech with a bullshit.
2) "I have no connection to this accuser or their service": I never said you worked FOR me. 2nd bullshit
3) "Show me the onboarding":  I never hired you, as I never hired anyone. You asked me If I was able to process an apple order which was an order of @senseiref customer(i didn't know it was) and I agreed to take it. And here's the third bullshit. https://ibb.co/YTKtpVt9 (Here's the proof).
You wrote that appeal with some AI and it's pretty easy to understand it lmao. You're saying a lot of bullshits and speeches out of context. 

@SonicRefs @senseiref can confirm you're saying a lot of lies and bullshits. Even sensei and the real customer of that order can confirm my version,

Stop playing dumb, stop using chatpgt for defend yourself and stop keeping saying a lot of bullshit. Pay me the fee and everything will be okay for you. You're wasting too much of my time and I'm starting to get bored of your bullshits.

@Liars @Alex @Barry @Ping @Eminem

I don’t want to drag this much longer, because I do not live by this and I take no enjoyment from doing this. 

I will repeat my self once more. I tried to buy a laptop using @SonicRefs services. The admin already established I was drained during that process and @SonicRefs was asked to refund me.   

As to new evidence coming to light right after i commented my BTC wallet address to refund to me, I would like to ask for real forensics. I will give a simple example, I am attaching a video of @Rivo167Refs making a deal with @SonicRefs to fake evidence against me on Telegram for a fee. But I am not a scamming piece of shit and will not be using simple Telegram browser mode, inspect element bullshit. This just proofs that anything can be generated, and i admit to no wrong doing, nor do I associate or know any of these people.  @SonicRefss a social engineer and obviously uses the dirtiest of tactics to extract, drain, extort, blackmail and rinse his customers. So with that being said, proper forensics need to be carried out. I could have extorted and put you all in a similar never ending forensic situation, but I am not that type of person. @Liars saw the truth, and I will stick to being honest as it helped me last time. 
Having said that and my attached video “evidence”
If you were to log into @Rivo167Refs   telegram, you would not find evidence of such a chat because it doesn’t exist. So please use the same logic when investigating evidence against me. I have done nothing wrong, and @SonicRefs and his team "impersonated" me in the sense of false evidence. I stand by my word. 

PS , if I am in the refunding business , why would I drop 3k on a laptop and not attempt it my self? also, I am so new to this that I trusted you blindly to deposit money into a bank account your worker had complete control over. i do not have time for sad little schemes. You are impatient greedy children, and that is ok. I knew where I am getting involved in, I know 3k is big damage probably for a one time deal where shit went sideways, and your worker is to blame and you gotta pay out of your personal pocket, but sorry man, got to man up sometimes and cover your losses.


https://limewire.com/d/bjdhc#MxAhq4ou23

And guys, even if it were true that I started making all these scam plays after getting drained for 3k, and then having the chance to take it back, and not claiming it because I was on vacation but somehow busy scamming. I mean its brilliant logic, I know all these refunders on cracked and do deals with them,  but dont check cracked my self, to claim my money the very instant @Alex asks for my addy. LOL.

The forum clearly states to : Watch Out for Impersonators (even though there probably is none and it's just sonics inspect element bullshit)

"Anyone can fake being someone else"
Identity should always be confirmed via forum PMs
It warns about being funneled into third-party scams

but let's say it were true.

My identity was never confirmed or linked to me through those dealings of the other scam reports. I had an active open report against @SonicRefs, I am pretty sure anyone who is in this space saw it or talked about it. @SonicRefs telegram "Art Gallery Chat" group even banned my nick name from being mentioned. And fake all the evidence you want, simple forensics should prove it all. And also, I mean this was probably the biggest thread in cracked history i dont know, i am not a larper here. but I am assuming it got some attention, don't you think I would've been quite known to be making some low life scams?

What remains a fact, is that @SonicRefs drained me, admitted fault and were shivering like fish out of the water to avoid paying it, calling their workers n words and blaming it all on them. It shows what type of business they run and the type of people they are. 

https://ibb.co/8yKMdXs

I also received contact like this via PM from https://cracked.st/Refunding. I am not sure if they were trying to help me, or furthermore help @SonicRefs extort and frame me. but this is a dirty game we are witnessing. i could've played it your way, because while you know social engineering, you are shit at technology. admin ask away what you want, but this is becoming kind of dragged on.  the timeline could not be more obvious, the day i get extorted by sonics workers is when i delete my telegram because i dont want these hyenas to have any more access to me, and then i realize something maybe happening on cracked, i check. and then i write to @Alex, let me explain to you what is happening in dm. and i proceed to just write my BTC addy because I want to secure my stolen money. And then all this fake evidence starts coming in. I am being honest, and please do forensics to find out who is lying. I am obviously outnumber here by the hyenas, but they are using the same tactics, faking chats. That is all.

I'm not involved in anyway to what @SonicRefs did or you're claiming he did,so don't defend yourself mentioning what happened with him,because, I repeat that I'm not involved in it.
If you would log into my telegram account you wouldn't find nothing because you deleted the chat,but I exported the chat between me and you before you would have deleted it,so I have a very solid proof that can deny what you're claiming ,and no,I didn't fake any chat as you showing in the video,even because it's really easy to distinguish a fake chat from a real one, and in addition to screenshots, I have the exported chat ,which can't be faked.

I can provide to the staff exported chat to validate that what I'm saying it's real + vouch and testimonial of the client to show that refund has been confirmed by the store.

Based on the evidence provided in another case you got scammed by an impersonator. This case is closed.
