To be an escrow, you have to be a known trader/buyer/seller in this forum and your trust wall will be the proof of how well did the transactions go. OP's got 3 negative feedback and 2 positive identical feedback which I think was accidentally clicked twice. People wouldn't trust you with a feedback like this. You might be a Sr. Member but what matters more is your feedback history. I suggest that OP clears his past issues and prove that he's a trustworthy member of the community.

if you wish to be an escrow, you need to have a good rank, I think from Sr. Member to Hero Member, have lots of trades between members and established the trust factor of many members here.  It would be a plus if you have your own sight and gain lots of trust and positive feedback from its users.

Well, you must become trusted users and it will need much time for you until get positive feed back and building good reputation on this forum. Even if you have become trusted users, you must use low fees on your services escrow.

First,  you need to make some trades to show that you are a man who knows the business. It also proves how much money you have. A stable escrow is one with a lot more in his wallet than the amount he trades. I have met many who honestly refuses an escrow request because the held amount is more than their current possessions.
Second, you need to be an old reputed member here so that people trust you and know you from long. New comers are always risky to invest our trust.
Third, you need a good and attractive resume in the form of a webpage, post or in a blog. You need to first offer free escrow servicing and start with small trade amounts.
Finally, you should know yourself and be a calm person.

How do you show other people that you have done a lot of trade?
Maybe, with standing in his trust summary in my mind. but i think if done with the trust summary is not become a strange reason for define if that is a trust escrow because if remembering about master-p's cases and seeing about their trust summary there are a many trust summary for gaining the trust for the another member end the ending he are turning into scam.

I came to the realization that even if you have 9999 activity count, if you never had any transaction before, people wouldn't trust you as an escrow. In becoming an escrow, your rank doesn't matter to most people. It might be an indication that you will not scam people for a low amount of money because your account costs much higher than that, but people still don't use an escrow that has 0 trust history.

So, to be an escrow, it'd be much better if you have been doing deals before. Even if all your feedback is from non-DT users but it has a reference link, then people would trust you. That's mostly the case because it's really really hard to get a positive feedback from DT members (but it only takes a few clicks to have negative ones).

as i know in order to become a trusted escrow you need to build your reputation and its the best if you got any green trust from DT member, after that you need to have some positive feedback or something that can make you being trusted by other people, and you also need to be active and know how to sign a message

It is true you need to build your trust network.  You need to have enough reputation, and rank.  I think you can build reputation by helping people in this community by simply giving them guide or answer to their querries, be active and if you have skill, you can offer it as service and be prompt on it.

I would not recommend you to get into escrow if you are looking for the payment side of it. We already have some good users such as sebastianju.

It would take a lot of time and effort to get into escrow and it's best you develop and good reputation and if others user approach you to do an escrow for them, then do it. better not to offer service at first as most users will doubt you and your intention. Escrow is like, it should be asked by other users from you and it should be taken as the highest honour one can get from the Crypto world.

From what I can tell, reputation is everything when it comes to escrow. Also, I have seen reputable sellers turning rogue and I'm talking about over 1000+ transactions going rogue. It's always a harsh blow to the marketplace when a known seller decides to go after greed or found himself in a huge debt.

To be escrow you have to have positive trust on this forum


Not true actually, Positive trust can be bought, like you buy an account with positive trust lets say for .5btc and scam someone for 1BTC. you must be in this community for a long time and  serving this community, and also you must have a good account like Legendary and ++. And have experience about how people can scam each other, not accept payment which can  be charged back and other many things.
Well, from your post I can be define for becoming an escrow for totally must have a good history during their live in this forum, But sometimes I see the superior member it's can turn into red trust member and I think he is having a good history before. I doubt for becoming escrow in this time and for my personality, it is too late.

You don’t have to do something extraordinary in order to be an escrow, you just have to

Be a Reputed Member – Probably a strong reputation works for your trust.

Be Online – As Bitcointalk has members from all around the world, you should stay online as much as you can.

Be Responsive – Respond each and every message, no matter you are accepting deal or not.

Maintain Reputation – Don’t let small negligence ruin your hard earned reputation.

Additional Service Provider – If you can manage to provide additional services like funds conversion from btc to fiat or vice versa, then it’s cherry on the top.

To be an escrow, first of all trust need to be generated as much possible from various account holders. Then you could have managed some signature campaign. You could have done lending without negative feedbacks.

I dont think many would choose to use you over someone well established like OgNasty
Yea, no one's going to trust you if you don't have a lot of successful trades. Even more so, if  the traders were found to be your alts.

Do I have a red trust? I can't see any in my profile, where can I see it?All I know is that I only gave ratings to some members but didn't receive any.

Click the "Show untrusted feedback" link on your trust page. You should probably get more familiar with BitcoinTalk itself and how it works before trying to handle money for people. Smiley

it's not even convenient to be one, the best escrow right now is working for free, so if you charge even 1% no one will use your escrow if this is your intention
I can be online most of the time and even give my contact number in my profile so that I can be contacted instantly.I dont think other escrow members are convenient in disclosing their identity or leaving their contact info here.People would trust an escrow whose identity is known over the one who stay anonymous

I'd much rather trust an anonymous person here who has plenty (and by plenty, I mean a couple years worth) of experience and reputation, instead of someone with identification that could be forged/stolen. Plus, I doubt someone would go across the globe and track you down (supposing the ID was real) for a trade that was less than a couple hundred dollars.

Basically being a escrow is more like volunteer work like a at non-profit.

Dont expect to get tipped frequently or at all and still offer the integrity for the transaction.

People who do offer 1% do get some escrows, but more people will flock towards a free service. And keep in mind this consumes most of your time, since you need to reply back to people etc.

first of all you must to understand that you have to earn money for yourself by doing your work, not scamming, because if you will scam once you will never be escrow, nobody will trust you

and second  i think it is very important for you to have good positive reputation, without it people won't want your services so your work will be useless

what your motivation to be escrow?i think you need better rank member,have good trust,and have so many experience trade and transaction with many people here,so you can make good reputation here,good luck for you dream to be escrow.

As quoted to be an escrow you need to be a high ranking user with active participation in the forum. I believe to be a escrow he needs to spend maximum time in bitcoin rather than other activities. After this trust is the major requirements which is to make people believe in his service.

nah, you don't need that much online activity.
just look at the trusted escrow some of them are super active but not all of them, they just check like once a day. and you only need to receive and send on the set times and check if there is a scam going on which doesn't take that much.
the important part is the trust rate, which OP is lacking

Its not for everyone, plus you have to build your trust with the community on this forum to build your rep.

That alone takes awhile, so even if you did want to do it. Also people are very antsy if you do not reply in a timely fashion, and you`ll have to deal with bigger issues if fraud does occur.

first of all, you need to have large positive reputation, or others won't trust you, because would you trust a stranger with 0 reputation?

and second yes, you have to stay away from minds like "should i scam him"?  because you have to earn money from your job not scams, 1 scam and it is over

It happens when your reputation becomes worth more than the total of the amounts you are escrowing. The best way to assure that you aren't going to run off with someone's 1 BTC you are escrowing, is if you stand to lose a lot more by scamming. Thats why a lot of people who do escrow around here run successful businesses, do a lot of dealing in the marketplace, etc.

Hilarious is right when he says it just happens naturally. Once you have some rep people will just start asking you to help with trades. I closed my public escrow service down a few months back and still do several escrows per month. It sounds fun being an escrow until you start doing lots per day/week. Escrow is time consuming and pretty much a thankless job. Account trades were by far the worst part of it.

There are no requirements set out by the forum but unless you've done a lot of previous trades and your name carries some weight around here then please don't bother. You'll only get negbombed and for good reason. It's a sad fact that most people who set out or want to become an escrow usually do it for the wrong reasons and end up scamming. People should really fall into escrowing naturally and a good rule of thumb is if people haven't already been asking you to escrow their transactions then you're not needed or trusted to be one. Why would you even want to be an escrow anyway? Why should anyone trust you? How do we know you're not going to run off as soon as you get an amount you like the look of? It's a hell of a lot of work and for little reward if any so I'm always sceptical of users like you who want to hold on to others money for them.
