Please remove the link in the quote from your post in case they throw up a phishing page. Yeah, people here actually fall for that.

Phishing page /fake escrow page appears to be gone now but who knows if it's gonna be readded.
I put up the screen cap in the other link so if anyone is wondering what it looks like it's there.

Its the same guy who tried and was successful(in scamming 1+ BTC) in impersonating OgNasty, must've boosted his bloated ego.

Now I know Monbox is a 1000% legit escrow. Well this "brand new" user is trying to set him up for a huge scam.
He sent me this...
I'm selling 2.6 Btc at 1:1 Btc-e rate. Cash deposit. 5/3. Escrow I'll be used here or Lbc

Ill take 2.6BTC if you are willing to use Escrow.

I suggest monbux.

monbux, he is on the forum approved Escrow list:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcointalk-escrows-trade-safely-855778

His profile:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/monbux-133846

His feedback from previous Escrow trades:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=133846




Well go back to the first one...
So I responded "okay let's go".

He then sends this...
Hi MrWDune,

No problem acting as Escrow for your currency exchange.

Can you please forward the link below to my main Escrow thread on the forum to the 12Bananas21:
"Link removed"

@ 12Bananas21 when you have sent the BTC to the Escrow address in the first post in my thread please pm myself and the buyer the transaction I.D

@ MrWDune when you have verified the funds have been sent you are safe to send payment to 12Bananas21

@ 12Bananas21 please pm when you have received payment so I can release the bitcoin to MrWDune

Cheers,
monbux


Obvious I see a link and click it... Well just in case he changes it... The link is NOT A BITCOINTALK LINK. So I've taken the pleasure of screen capping it with my iPhone :-)
