Never trade BTCs with Ebay. They don't permit BTCs there.
Sorry about that dude but it's still 0.1btc and people have lost you can't even imagine trading with PayPal so just relax atleast you learned you lesson !! Just don't forget to check https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/beware-of-paypal-and-other-reversible-transfer-services-14632
Today I have sell 0.1BTC in ebay. The user "redstar7474" has buy it with paypal. I have sended the 0.1 to her.
Later, ebay has sended me this message:
MC999 eBay listings removed - unauthorized user of buyer or bidder account
So they had take me off my earnings and I have lost the 0.1BTC. Which seems totally unfair, as if it has been really hacked, it´s the fault of the hacked person for not protecting her account and password.
The bitcoin adress of the scammer is 182qjk5U49nsYxGQk4HGMCTad8gNRY5QZL
Probably he/she will be using differents adresses, anyway I post this info here for the records. Beware of the bloody scammers and NEVER, NEVER use paypal in this context.
I hope at least my mistake can help others.
