I think I got scammed .... I found someone named Disaster1989 who was selling private CID's and it seemed legit based off of everyone in the thread on another forum thanking him. I paid using paypal and the CID was supposed to automatically come to my email and I have been waiting close to an hour now. I decided to do a google search of his name and CID and it brought me to a thread on consolecrunch that talked about how he is a scammer.. I wish I did research first instead of being so quick to send money. I am feeling the rage a bit now, I will give it a bit longer and if I do not have a CID in my email by then I guess that I am going to open a dispute since paypal will not let me cancel the payment... I have learned from this though and now I feel that I will likely not attempt to buy another one online and will just salvage dead ps3's and extract them myself.
