Ouch, 5 BTC? I won't laugh at you, because getting scammed is always a shitty feeling. I have been scammed for far less, but now I know I should not feel shitty or complain about my little loss, 5 BTC is alot of money dude. But this will be the first and last time you do this right?

Meh, I can't get shit from investigation, it would just be losing of my time and nerves again.
Ugh that's a tough amount to lose for a lesson.
For 5 BTC I would be investigating every detail from their trust

Might help ypu to avoid being idiot like me.
Was selling few btc, and posted on a thread of a guy who was buying. Got the PM later that he wanted to buy, I insisted on escrow, he suggested Yankee (Bitinstant), good ols user and I accepted.
Only when I sent coins to supposed escrow I noticed that account I sent to was completely new and had dot after Yankee, while supposed segvec I was trading with is actualy seqvec.
5 BTC gone to wind due to my stupidity.
So, be careful and avoid doing the same mistake.

You're allowed to laugh at me, I deserve it.
