Well, I am no TOR expert, just tryin to help. Scammers like this are affecting business and need to be dealt with.
Or if he used a VPN... sort of hard to track down then.
Is that a helpful IP in the lower right hand side?
LOL gg, that's his proxy IP he was using on the tor browser. Its nothing to do with that particular site: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/10498, but the administrator of that site could track the view at that time stamp with that IP and trace it back from there. Or science or something Come on guys!

If I was site admin, I wouldn't release IP logs without a warrant... Doxing people is bad news.
Within the authority of the forum, this doesn't get much clearer as a confirmed scam. I'm personally for IP providing in these cases.Someone trolled one of my for sale threads before I had significant trust history, pretending to be an alt account. I asked mods to provide IPs (or just show that they wern't mine....) and they said that IP information isn't collected. Its a shame, so many scammers could be provided to the FBI with just that IP.

A perfect example of why escrow is important when dealing with members that don't have established trust ratings. Here's a list of forum members that are willing to provide escrow services: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/escrow-list-108716
I don't think the OP understands how IP trace-backs & logs work...
If staff here decided to provide me or any network-inclined users with the IP address of the OP, I could trace it back in less than 20 minutes. Of course this becomes more difficult the more proxies he is working through, but I am going out on a limb and assuming he used less than 2.

I'm all for getting the fuck but if he has half a brain he used tor.

Why are staff so reluctant to provide information on known (and in this case, admitted) scammers?
I could single handedly expose him, his ISP, his personal IP, his alt accounts, his e-mail addresses if given the adequate information.

He stated he was shipping from North Carolina. Anyone want to help me track this person down?
Hmmmmm. User admits theft openly. I could see LE getting involved. I hope you used 7 proxies, dovaklin.
You do have a point, I've let my ego get the better of me.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Don't be so sure that everything you used to create this account was a burner. I run a midsized hosting company and I was contacted by a detective not so long ago concerning a scam on craigslist involving hardware that never got delivered and an IP he got from craigslist belonging to my IP range. Long story short thanks to my and craigslist's cooperation the scam artist was identified and arrested despite him using VPN, fake information and throw away e-mail address.
You're increasing the chances of getting caught the more you post here, timestamps rarely lie and with some regexp magic its rather trivial to cross reference.
I'm sort of an anarchist myself but people like you should be locked up, ripping people off doesn't not constitute of you being a good sport, sooner or later the scams you've done will catch up with you. My advise to you is quit while you're ahead, this is not a way to earn for a living.
To be clear: I meant that sooner or later, be it months or years, I will return the money, when $100 isn't such a reward that I literally got off of my couch to perform pelvic thrusts when I got 5 confirmations.

I'm honestly amused. Well played.
Give him back the money now.
At least some
That's a very good idea you have there, erre.At least some
Delarock, give me an address to return the money to, so I can log it down. When I start making real money (legitimately or illegitimately), I'll send you the $95 back.
I'm confused, Thedovahkiin909, was this a lesson to Delarock, and you do intend on returning the money? Or are you trying to give Delarock hope that you will return the money so you can make a smoother getaway.
I'd be rather impressed if you sent the Bitcoins back actually.

Thank you. It's actually my first time....The descent has begun.
Good luck finding ASICs. Also, I'd say always use an escrow for purchases over $100 and buyers with unverified/low trust.
Seller says that he's going to ship item today. I am still willing to give the benefit of the doubt until tomorrow.
I really appreciate everyone's input here. It's good to know that everyone is out looking for scammers.
I sent a PM to the buyer to discuss details of the sale because I tend to ask a ton of questions and I would rather not clutter the public thread. However, I do insist upon making details of the sale public before I send payment. In this case, I considered the amount of BTC0.24 to be an amount that would not only be disproportionately increased by escrow, but (more importantly) an amount that I was willing to lose half of if the sale went bad.
Even though I am not the most active member, I do read a lot and I am well aware of best practices when it comes to transactions here. This deal was voluntary on my part, but thanks to everyone for watching out.
Everyone is correct, there was no Jalapeno. Though it means nothing, I'm sincerely sorry that I've taken the coins, and I wish you good luck in cryptocurrency.I really appreciate everyone's input here. It's good to know that everyone is out looking for scammers.
