Topic: Escrow Partner got tricked - page 7. (Read 4960 times)

Can you report the PM to grue or Cyrus(preferred) , along with this thread link for them to confirm

I did not read all messages in this thread to be able to answer fast. amartin99 first asked me about a trade some days ago. I answered a bit late and he wrote that he already dealt with another user. Well in the meanwhile I already had sent out the escrow details and after hearing that I cleared the address.

Then the other trading partner got back and wanted the deal to happen. I asked amartin99 if he still wants to deal and he said yes. After negotiating the deal I sent a new escrow address. Though he sent to the old escrow address. I said it's fine, no problem should appear from that.

After a while I received a pm from him claiming that the trading partner had sent him the goods and that I should release the coins. After that I received a pm of the trading partner telling me his bitcoin address to release to.

Well, I released the coins of course since both parties were ok with it.

Now I received a pm of amartin99 that he got a pm from me that I released the coins even though he had not received anything. Well, first scare went over when I checked my inbox and found that exactly the same user amartin99 had send me the pm telling me to release the coins. I answered on his complain pm and found that only the trading partner received this answer because the forum told me that amartin99 has blocked me for receiving pm's from  me.

This sounds like a strange situation. I will read the thread now.

Of course admins and staff can check my pm's.

The page might have been designed to look like bitcointalk, fooling you into thinking you were logged out. You would then enter your bitcointalk username and password and get redirected to the real bitcointalk.org, making it look like you never left.

You should check the PMs again. I'm not sure why anybody other then the person you were dealing with would have the escrow released.

This is all assuming SebastianJu didn't fuck up. It wouldn't be the first time a escrow did something wrong.

then the rdp you're on must have been compromised.

in the end I have made 9-10 trades on this forum
gotten feedback for only one and lost $310
it's been a discouraging first week

don't think so but even if he had I used a unique pass for this forum
so wouldn't have worked

Did the person you were trading with send you any links, could have been links to sites that appear like bitcointalk.org but are designed to steal your password?

the headers look like this  http://prntscr.com/ab457x

the PM is not in my history  either from me approving the payment
or the one in the email

I suspect someone hacked my account and simply deleted the PMs
I had my account set to save everything I send in my history and that somehow got changed to not save
I just find it hard to beleave anyone cracked my old pass "x9^t6X$S@nu!ukHAn"
and yes I have changed my pass now so there is no harm in posting my old one

The user won't be abled to do that.

However, if his account got hacked, the invader might have cleared the PMs from in- and outbox.

Did you actually receive this PM? If so then can you click on "quote" then copy everything and paste it here?

BTW, this is the shit that happens when you deal with members that sell carded cards and carding methods.

You might also want to change your password now. If your account was compromised you can expect other PMs to be deleted.

I do not think the email is fake, considering it was sent from [email protected]

If you still think so why not post the raw transcript of that email here?

I think you have been ratted! Check your PC ASAP!

I think he's talking about the notification email, which one gets to their registered email address when they receive a PM.

So, you're trying to say someone sent a fake email to both you and the escrower to trick him into releasing the BTC before deal was complete? Not sure I follow.

If that email is legit (check the message headers) then someone did most likely hack your account.

this email  http://prntscr.com/ab40hl

The email that comes with any PM as a notification

What email?

Mexxer-2 tell him everything in detail in private message he can help you, maybe SebastianJu sent the bitcoins to other address mostly escrow's do that .

the email appears to have come from [email protected]
but that is easily faked

Waiting patiently helps, I heard.
