I traded 31.2 btc for 35k cash deposit. I was stupid enough to send him the btc first. All I know is his phone number, name (I think it's real), and country and have a picture of him. That's all I got. What can I do with this info? And is he gonna be arrested?

Please help me out here. I don't know what to do. Thanks.

Buy more btc before the price goes up. If you're telling the truth about this, you're both dumb, and rich enough to cover your loss.
I didn't want to trade more than 10 btc face to face, because it didn't feel right, and people do these kind of dumb moves, incredible.

cheers

i already lost hope in human intelligence because i see these pics from greece:





Its okay, they just lack using or abusing google to its full extent on money transmitter options. That sucks though, if you got like over $1k in the bank and its stuck.

I mean I only heard about bitcoin on a cnn article, so they must not really keep up with news and stuff?

I have no idea if this is true or not, and there's a good chance it's not (because OP can't produce a transaction id). But the main take-away from this, in my opinion, is that if you are conducting trades of this magnitude and size, to Always break up the large amount into many smaller trades, one by one.

Also, while it would be greatly helpful for OP to post a txid, and this would back up his claim, I can understand why he maybe wouldn't want to post the transaction here. Trading in Bitcoin with amounts this large would most likely put you on the radar of many governments and agencies. Perhaps OP is worried that he could be tracked, and identified, if he posted the transaction. Possibly he (or she) lives in a anti-Bitcoin country. While I think it is good to always view claims like this with skepticism unless proof is provided, I think it is also important to keep ^ this in mind.

waoo can't believe that this thread is still running and reached more than 60 replies. OP doesn't have any thing nor the tx id nor other proof, he just posted here for the fun, and created new account for that.
meanwhile my thread with dozens of pictures and texts has no attention, and thief is still on the loose increasing his exit scam portfolio

you should be more mad at the person who referred you that person.

cause intially it looks super bad on him for referring "thinking" a reliable trust to trust with. Any money at that level of trading though you should escrow at least or use some sort of security to make sure not get screwed over.

at the same time I feel like this thread is pretty troll.. no tx ids?

Check your normal trader out. He referred the other one and might help you.

The trader(s) dont have a scam accusation thread on here yet?

You really should provide proof to raise your credibility. It seems no one can believe you.

Isn't there a way to close this thread until the OP gives us proof of the transaction? Until he does, I call this BS.

I agree, OP has had plenty of time to provide the transaction ID's as he's been online several times since being asked.

I'm calling this 100% BS too.


Agreed, OP should post a tx at the very least and how about a signed bitcoin message proving he owns the address? I would be loathe to even investigate if someone couldn't provide those basic proofs.

@OP

Nobody is going to believe you until you provide a transaction ID showing 2 of your separate payments that you have mentioned.
Till then, we will keep believing you're trolling.

I traded 31.2k btc for 35k cash deposit. I was stupid enough to send him the btc first. All I know is his phone number, name (I think it's real), and country and have a picture of him. That's all I got. What can I do with this info? And is he gonna be arrested?

Please help me out here. I don't know what to do. Thanks.

Edit: corrected spelling.


EDIT: Here's the entire thread reworded

Ok seems like everyone is confused, I'll try to clear it up

I usually trade over $20,000+ with my usual trader. He was unable to provide me cash for my approximately $32,000 USD in BTC which was like 128 BTC or something. For that reason, he recommended me another trader who was able to take my 128 BTC and provide me with cash.

I gave him over 128 BTC+ (139.6 BTC to be exact which is like $35,000+) to get $32,000 USD. So he was making like $3,000 with that trade.

So then I sent him the BTC (139.6 BTC which is like 35,000$) in two different payments. I sent him 128 BTC first and the rest later.

After those 2 transactions, he disappeared. No luck. Please help me out here.

Lost over 35000$ USD in total. Please help. I don't know what to do to get my money back.

you basically gave a random man your money. enough said.

This is a joke right? Come on then where's the punchline Smiley.

its obvious no doubt, A man sending 32 btc to a Person he never know. Without any escrow

The OP has been updated it seems. Its not 32 BTC but 139 BTC !

I find this very hard to believe. If true, anyone doing such a deed deserves to lose the bitcoins. Still he probably hodls lots of coins. So no worries!

I gave him over 128 BTC+ (139.6 BTC to be exact which is like $35,000+) to get $32,000 USD. So he was making like $3,000 with that trade.

You have lost more then $30,000 in a single dice roll? I am sorry but I am going to call BS on this one.

Even less believable then the OP's story

I wish it was BS. Granted, I was referring to BTC amount, not fiat... and this was when BTC was in the single digits.

You lost 7.5 million usd in a single roll? I would kill myself if that happen to me lol.
Did you not read what he posted? He lost somewhat between the fiat equivalent of $140 and ~$1200 depending where exactly bitcoin was trading at the time.

That isn't all that bad. Obviously no one wants to lose that kind of money, however I can image a lot more people being able to afford to lose such an amount.

You don't need to even if you lose more. Still there is no proof.
