1. You did not read my chat conversation with the scammer, it was not 5 minutes, but over 1 hour.
2. You dont want to understand that not everybody knows how to verify users properly on websites like slack. You are stating it is objectively stupid from anybody not knowing how to do, I would claim every average Joe would be scammed from the guy who scammed me. On some points on my conversation with the scammer, I though this "Dominik Schiener" might be strange not speaking german with me for example, but I never thought he could be a scammer having the same pictures and name like him, while the real "Dominik Schiener" was also chatting in the official room in english with other guys.
3. You think being blunt and using words like stupid is ok, although with the most cultures of the world it is offensive and cause conflicts. If you would have say it directly to me or a lot of other people where I am living, after I lost over 5.000 dollars, at least someone from us would be propably injured. You would be ok with it? So in my opinion I am not stupid, it is your opinion, it is subjectiv and therefore a personal attack.
By the way, why are you adorn yourself with words like "ad hominem" or "quantum superpositions", do you want to show us how inteligent you are?
Here is the chat conversation with the scammer, for the ignorants / or lazys..
After I entered the trading channel, the user "Dominik Schiener" contacted me.
At the end of our conversation the user changed his name to: "Admiral Bit"

If you need the IOTA wallet, latest build here :

wallet - IOTA Wallet
yumei [12:01 AM]
well can you explain me how it works with trading, do I need to transfer BTC anywhere for the bot recognizing it, or its just a OTC between me and you where we have to handle anything else ?
Dominik Schiener [12:02 AM]
I am one of the IOTA devs so trades are secure. You can also go to the trading channel and type "BIDS" or "ASKS" for the bot to respond. Trades are manual so escrow is recommended if you are dealing with a regular member here
[12:04]
Seccour or Yassin are recommended for Escrow
yumei [12:04 AM]
ok I understand, may I ask you some questions then? is IOTA pow or pos, how is it different to bitcoin beside there is no typical blockchain, my english is poor, so I didnt understand that much. but if you don´t have time to explain its fine I will search elsewhere, but I am highly interested to buy from you
Dominik Schiener [12:05 AM]
All the info you require can be found here in detail :
https://www.iotatoken.com/[12:06]
IOTA has big advantages over bitcoin regarding scalability, no fees, fully decentralized
yumei [12:07 AM]
ok i am actually installing the client, how long you will be online to do the trade ?
Dominik Schiener [12:09 AM]
I will be on and off on a regular basis. When you are ready please use the following bitcoin address for payment : [hidden]
After transfer drop me a pm with your IOTA address, IOTA will be sent after 1 confirmation of the bitcoin
[12:10]
You dont needa fully synced wallet to complete the trade and you can also check the IOTA has been sent using the tangle explorer here : http://tangle.guru/
yumei [12:10 AM]
ok thanks a lot Dominik, I appreciate your help a lot, I will pm you when I do the first 10 btc batch for 1 T IOTA
Dominik Schiener [12:10 AM]
No probs.
Dominik Schiener [12:53 AM]
heading offline soon. If you decide to purchase the IOTA just send to the bitcoin to the above address (Hidden) then message me your IOTA address. IOTA will be sent when I come back online shortly. Current price is 10 BTC per 1 TIOTA (25 batches available) - price is also subject to change so dont think about it too long :wink: thanks, Dom.
