I don't believe this. Either very fishy or very stupid. He seems way too defensive and understanding of a newb:  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10559707

I'm sure he will "receive" the coin and profess what a great service the op offered and how he's totally legit. Then more gold will likely be sold this way.

Did he just waste an alt account or did someone really just send 4 BTC?  Undecided

well, he doesn't want to come here and clear their name because "Sorry but I won't get involved in flame wars..." and also wants to know ".. If there is an official rule broken or someone who has lost money to me, then by all means point it out." (from PM'ing the person with: you have a accusation to clear https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/goldbits-newbie-scammer-964881 )

I wonder if he's using him to bump the threads? The last four posts of ManyProofs are in his thread.
I reported his posts for making too many illegal bumps, and it looks like the various updates were consolidated into one post so someone probably said something to him about bumping too much.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are one and the same.

Is he using a bot to delete posts or something? Posts are deleted within a minute, sometimes seconds. I tried  posting several times yesterday. Waste of time using that account anyway now that it's all red. Kind of hard to miss..

I think he might be. I don't see how he can be online all day and delete posts within well under a minute. He deleted my post to stop bumping the thread with seconds ha. Nobody is going to fall for this anyway.

Weird how he isn't deleting this guys posts:

will u selling me 1 gram bit? future will order more because i have proofs of you

and monies back guarante?

The idiot is still at it.

How does he even earn the money to buy the gold when he spends all day deleting posts from his scam thread.

This idiot needs banning.

Amazing how greed still draws people in even though its an obvious scam, human nature I suppose  Roll Eyes

He's lightening fast on the delete button Shocked Like a cowboy.
He is very fast indeed. I even expressed interest in buying (with escrow) and he deleted it within a minute.

Newbie selling gold below spot. Seems legit. Who are you using for escrow?

There are a few other clues as well, such as this "newbie" knowing how start a moderated thread. Many "newbies" are really the same old scammers trying to burn someone. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Seen as Goldbits has locked his first thread and made his other a self moderated thread I thought I would raise the scammer here Smiley

Profile -
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/goldbits-454486

Thread -
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sold-1oz-9999-fine-gold-2015-coin-below-spot-964758


Accusation -

Offering 1 X 1oz Gold Buffalo @ 4BTC about 20% under spot  Roll Eyes

He is also very proficient at deleting posts from his thread he doesn't like  Grin

Usual scammer profile applies -

Newbie member - check
No trade history - check
Refusing Escrow - check
Wants you to send 1st - check
No pics of goods on offer - check
Goods offered at amazing price - check

1 of 3 scenarios apply -

1) Either he doesnt have the coin full stop and its a scam.
2) He has one but has no intention of sending it so a scam.
3) He has a piss poor fake/copy hoping to pass it off as the real thing.
