I agree - what I don't get is that you can generally only reverse charges for a limited period of time, even for fraud. He said he worked with Robin for two years, but probably only 120 days worth could have been charged back. So yeah, like you said, based on total earnings, the amount of work charged back and the time he says he worked with Robin, it seems like the vast majority of his work on the platform would've been with Robin.

And yeah, where's the righteous anger at Robin? All OP says about him is positive things, even though the situation is unambiguously one in which Robin is a scumbag and a thief if we accept the facts.

Just a lot that seems sketchy here, and especially the way his profile has stuff like "84.2% of the businesses I worked with, got an investment & provided their investors with an ROI of more than 6X." - that kind of very specific stat about a particular return for a particular percent of people just feels very dubious to me.
