Topic: GoldBits - Newbie scammer - page 2. (Read 7682 times)
At this point I really dont know what to think of GoldBits. Im not gonna go say hes a scammer outright, as I got a legit coin, but it looks like he hasn't been on for several days now. As for tins, I regret my lack of proof.
ah well, goldbits hasn't posted since we shamed him here, unless he move on to another name to attempt another scam
I've said that I would apologize if GoldBit's sale proofs to be legit...
No need for that apology, yet, as we are still waiting on proof.
There was a claim that the coin was sold (without receipt for proof), but that claim also stated that the pawn show didn't test the coin to see if it was legit. So, 1) no proof of coin's authenticity, and 2) no proof of actual sale of coin.
-----------
Complete side note: eBay is really effing annoying lately. Really nothing to do with this thread, but I needed to get that off my chest.
I've said that I would apologize if GoldBit's sale proofs to be legit and I trust elianite enough to believe that the coin is real. So, GoldBit, I hereby apologize for accusing you.
However, like others have said, I'm almost certain that you are going to pull a long con, based on what has happened and the PM's you have sent me. I cannot prove nor disprove this, so we shall see what the future holds.

He was being sarcastic, Einstein (see, I'm not really accusing you of being Einstein 
). Quickseller obviously isn't vod, though maybe he is the 'new' vod due to his scambusting.

I see. That's interesting, I'll need to read up on that then.
Thanks!
No problem
.wow, i did come across that, but now i look into this:
Vod: Last Active: January 12, 2015, 08:02:30 PM
GoldBits: Date Registered: February 23, 2015, 03:16:42 AM
so how'd GoldBits know about Vod? other then going over months of posts.. seems like an old user on here, anyone willing to go though 7600+ posts of vods to see who he has run into?
still, why would Vod go AWOL (studying C+ or some programming language) and then come back as Quickseller, who has been active member since July 22, 2014, 03:51:40 PM?
orrr he could be meaning something else..
wait.. Vod has busted a few scammers balls, i wonder... *checks trust ratings*

Why would hilariousandco have alts? They would have much, much less influence than a Staff member account if he really was trying to shill for something.

I don't think for one second he's a new user more like an old hand playing a bit of a game
He will be an older user:
I suspect all of these are actually alts of hilariousandco (another staff member) but let me see what I can dig up
Damn, you got me
. The question is, who are you an alt of?Good call, Vod.
Vod hasn't been active here early Jan and a new user very likely wouldn't have any idea of vod or his reputation.
I'm still scratching my head about this whole situation, it's the most bizarre set of circumstances I can remember on a selling thread.
whats got you? the way goldbits conducted themselfs? or the way people went over the top about it (i admit, im one of them)?
No its not you lol I'm over the top with suspected scams most of the time myself.
Its weird how it started with GoldBits being a new and user starting a self moderated thread and than deleting any slightly questionable post. I don't think for one second he's a new user more like an old hand playing a bit of a game or as mentioned starting a scam with one legitimate coin. He seems to have been on a bit of a wind up rubbing it in that he's sold the coin on page 2 of this thread without escrow and mentioning requiring escrow on other peoples threads.
I don't know why he would sell a coin under market value again unless it was just bait for a later scam.
I'm not sure why elianite would risk 4btc on what looked like a definite scam at the time especially with escrow being refused.
I then don't know why elianite didn't get proof of the sale at the gold dealer to show here especially as he was already being accused by some of being part of the scam. Unless the coin he received was fake but he didn't want to lose face.
I just don't know its all very strange and there seems to be lots of unanswered questions.

also as anyone noticed that GoldBits has turned off the trust rating on his little hole in the world?
Thats not possible, the thread was moved into "obsolete (selling)" which does not show trust rating.
Oh, didn't see that! i left a tab open to that page and just hit refresh
I bet 'Gold Bits' has plenty more "gold" buffalos in airtite capsules with the black foam protectors. For some people, it's all they ever use.
I have some 5btc Casascius coins. I took these off the original roll personally, and put them into airtites. Any fingerprints are Mikes!

if I were goldbits i would just send first to blazedout. there's like 0.1% chance of him ripping you off. I assure GB that blazedout is trustworthy.
