Topic: $80 MP for BTC (Read 2192 times)

Wow is all I can say

and the plot thickens

Sorry for the stupid username, I could not think of anything more creative at the time of my fury.

PLEASE DO NOT TRUST UpcomingTruth!!!! He is a cheater, thief and disgrace to mankind.

I stumbled on this forum because now I am on the hunt for this guy and he seems to be doing some business here.

He made a craigslist post for A1 Terrahash machines, gave me his real phone number and name (which was weird), kept in contact with me and OBVIOUSLY as soon as I sent the payments he avoided giving me tracking numbers and NOW he doesn't reply to ANYTIHING (email, calls, text). Transaction was done through paypal. Luckily I sent three separate payments, two of which were held for a while as "limited". He refunded me the two limited payments and took the third, said he sent the miners and obviously that was a lie.

Now I am yet another victim of bitcoin fraud. I could have definitely prevented this by sending the PayPal payment as "in exchange of goods and services" but that was my fault that I'm inexperienced enough to know that AND nice enough to cover the paypal charges since he was giving me a "good deal". I will try to dispute with the credit card that I used to make this transaction.

So next time I'm in Florida (as I'm there very often renting apartments) hopefully I run into this character. He gives out waaay too much information on separate blog spots on the internet.

I'm not here for people to feel bad for me. No. Just to do anything I can so that this f***er doesn't strike again. At least on anyone in this forum.

Please do anything you can to RE-POST.
If you need this person's name phone and email, let me know. Ill be happy to give it out to any of his victims.
I can also provide conversations and paypal screen shots between him and I, just to prove that I'm not writing this post for no reason.

I guess some peoples parents just gave up on raising their kids to earn money the honest way. Horrifying to think that these people will reproduce, and so will their mentality. 

Yep.  Just saw a hero member the other day asking for a loan and saying if he didn't get it , he would sell his account.  Another scumbag.

Use escrow, regardless of who you're dealing with!

Accounts are being stolen, hacked, bought/sold all the time on this site. Reputation, activity score, feedback are all WORTHLESS.

Protect yourself!

Also, pretty much points to ruggedman_dan being the scammer. What a sack of shit.

possibly, at least it was only 80 dollars.  Its just weird to me how he asked for a picture of the MP and reciept then asked for another picturer of just the reciept right after he received the code. Then 2 mins later hes logged off and my money is gone



im not accusing anyone, im just saying

maybe dan decided to scam someone because he just got scammed

im simply stating my opinion and the facts i can gather on the situation so other members can read.
I dont care anymore, its done. Its my fault in the end.

Even if he did, he can always deny it and say you gave the code to other people.

I'm not accusing anyone but those screenshots don't prove anything. Could have loaded to another card or resold the moneypak. What a mess this turned out to be.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 - You should post there.. more people would see it.

yeah im pretty certain dan did it

Hey calm down... That was uncalled for.  Did anyone here accuse you of anything?
It sounds like Eric is pointing to dan.

I never said it wasn't legit.  

I'm just pointing out facts.

Another fact is that logging into someone's account is meaningless
because the funds could have been redeemed to a different account.

Also, yes it is easy to manipulate images.  This isn't even nearly
as sophisticated as Photoshop.  You can easily cut and paste things
Using Microsoft paint.  Were you unaware of that ?

your rep? u hardly have any rep u have like 2 or 3 trades where u sent second, your only trusted rep is where u sent first.

Well I will bet your punk ass 1btc its legit. I will let you login to my account. I will in then receive my payment from escrow ;-)
I do not know how easily it is? You apparently have experience in making spoofed screenshots. Nice to know for the future thankd

Screenshots can be fairly easily spoofed.  Not saying you did though.

thats clears that up

Proof this is my account showing

Just go threw my trust/Reputation all of it adds up

Thanks assholes

I never said 100% I gave ruggedman_dan the benefit of the doubt from the beginning, although he seems the sketchiest.  I really dont even care anymore. I'm just telling the story for other members to read and they can decide if they might want to do exchanges in the future with whoever.

So you're saying you're 100% sure it was ruggedman_dan because of the timestamps?
Even if you feel sure, he has plausible deniability because 2 others had the code.

Even if they have a "Outstanding Reputation &  Positive Trust Rating" like yourself? And even your Buddy ruggedman_dan because he can commit a scam and get away with it?

I am not uncertain of anything. 3 people have the code, ruggedman_dan, upcoming truth, and turtlehurricane. I had deals going with all of them then a sudden excuse came up. turtle couldnt do it cause he reached his MP limit for the day, upcoming truth was driving across the country, then ruggedman who suddenly disappeared after receiving the code. I kept in contact with the other two the whole time.

Upcoming truth received the code about 7pm, turtle received the code around 10:30pm and ruggedman received the code around 1:30am. The money went missing around 1:45am. You guys figure it out.
Someone trying to do a sorry ass scam like this would be spontaneous IMO, not hold on to the code for hours

When it comes down to it it is my fault for being impatient, but fuck a scamming piece of shit and that person will remain apart of this community
