Topic: Indian localbitcoins scammer list - page 5. (Read 63147 times)

Thats quite a funny situation and a troublesome situation to be in. Perhaps you could have talked to that guy and had asked how he thinks his bank account was hacked, and why he gave all his ID information to this third party who claimed to be selling dogs to him.

Golden Retriever than means.....there someone made money in commission and stayed anonymous throughout the whole thing.
Quite a gesture.

Yes. Of course, thats also happening now. I just said that to that guy just to support my own side. 

There was an incident once: A trade was opened. ID verified, bank account verified, phone number, everything else done. The buyer paid 13K to my bank account. Released bitcoins almost instantly. Exactly 1hr after that trade a guy called me asked : "So when you are going to deliver my 'puppies'?"
He paid that money to someone in dubai to buy Golden retriever puppies. And I was introduced to him as the Indian agent who will be delivering puppies to the guy.

And you know, it is really very very difficult to make them understand the whole things what ever happened. First question what they will ask is "What is bitcoins?" If you can make them understand what it is then they will trust you. If you are not able to, then they are not gonna believe you so easily.

I remember I spoke to this guy for more than 2hrs on that day. Finally solved - An amicable settlement !!!

This thread should to in main board with OP writing summary and contact details of scammers and incidents.

@dizz , just curious that how does opening the trade on lbtc would not cause him to scam ? Couldn't he just send the payment through the other account there as well ?

Exactly unless they are lying themselves after sending money to get a charge back

thing is how do these people get otp

This is a worrying trend!   
How should we remain safe when hackers are going to these lengths? Maybe the time is ripe for proper exchanges to come into the picture as P2P trading has several risks at this point. People who have been trading with each other earlier and trust each other, should probably continue trading P2P, but would be very difficult to confirm identity if their accounts have been compromised. I generally P2P with Pankaj and even though his rates are little less than market rate when buying btc from me, i am assured that this is a legit transaction as he is probably the most trusted trader on these forums.

Sent money from a hacked account 58900.
Since this was a current account and the neft reached me 2 days later, I thought it would be safe to release.
But I was wrong, account is frozen now, owner of the account called, and I made him understand, lets see what happens.

There is no way to verify it seems, and my account getting frozen too often, looks like I'll have to stop trading.

If anyone else knows any details of this user please send them to me

Haha, this is damn funny whatsapp conversation. Anyway i have my own tale to tell.

Here goes.

Got scammed for approx 90k in November last year. More on that story later. That is not the important one. So stopped trading for a month, and then decided to start accepting transfers but after being very anal about verification. So had this guy who contacted me who wanted to buy 69k worth of coins. Told him id was required and he co-operated completely. Sent me aadhar card, sent me the screen shot of his netbanking account homepage, and everything matched perfectly. the names, account number everything. There wss no reason to suspect at all. Sadly, it looked too perfect then. Anyway, this was in January, 2015. 3 days back i get a call from someone claiming he had transferred the money to my account in January, and claiming i still hadn't provided the degree to him. I was completely lost, as to what he wanted, but he sounded like someone who already knew he was scammed, so was very patient in talking. Over the course of the next hour, i understood exactly what transpired.

Some guy created a website providing online degree, and this scammed person contacted website, to provide him the degree. the website owner, asked him to make payment to my account, and took all documents from the scammed guy, including his financial records, aadhar, other educational degrees, etc. An absolute identity theft. Whatever, document i asked for, was provided, as the website owner had all the documents.

the website owner and the degree seeker were in touch for last 6 months, but last week the website went down, and the mobile numbers remained switched off. Which is when the scammed guy realised something was amiss. so the only person left for him to contact was me. Which he did.

My November scammed story i will share in a couple of days.
