really just thought Id make a fun raffle, didnt know there was so muck backlash to this, Im sorry.

Read my edited advice - and do you actually have 10 bitcoins in funds? Or are you just going to wait until 20 people send 0.5 BTC each, then do the raffle? I think it's the second option. Not safe, unless you escrow the whole thing. Even then, there are more fair and trusted lottos on bitcointalk, such as Dab's provably fair lotto.

I was trying to get 20 people to donate, Im sorry I see now this was a miserable idea.

Yeah, your pathetic scam lol

Your account should be deleted

An obvious scam. Send bitcoin to the address if you feel like generously donating.
Otherwise, stay away.

How about this? You first send 10 Bitcoins to a trusted third party, then when the draw begins you do a fair drawing. The 10 bitcoins will be sent from the escrow to the winner.

With all due respect, it's very fine and realistic for pepole to post on here questioning sending bitcoins to a complete stranger with no known reputation on here.

You may be an honest person doing a legitimate thing, but you should still respect that people will rise doubts when a new member no one knows comes on this board asking people to send a stranger 0.5 bitcoins and just trust his "word" that he will actually pay out.

Many people on this board have been scammed by people who have been around for years and who were considered trustworthy (as others said it was a long con). Expect most people on here to question something like this.

edit: If you want something like this to work you would need a 3rd party escrow service that the community already knows and trusts. Would be very rare for people to send $300+ dollars to a complete stranger with no way of tracking them down or even any sort of legal recourse. Maybe there are some escrow services on here that already have a reputation holding peoples bitcoins, I'd suggest you look into them holding the bitcoins if you wanted to do a raffle.

Just send it back to the same address that sent it.

Why would they have to PM you?

It could be a send-only address at an exchange, etc.

Thats what I thought but I found the return in my wallet and sent it, no worries!
