Topic: [LOANED]Loan Request: 1.5BTC for 7 days (repaid at 2BTC on the 7th) (Read 2928 times)

Lol. True. Health care CEO is a way bigger crook than just for coins.

I was searching google for Adam Cole seahorn and I realized that I think this guy from Texas goes by Adam Cole.  I think he drops the seahorn.  there is another Adam Cole who seems to have an arrest record, but that guy is in Austin and I think our perp is in Houston.  here is the "not" him...

Adam Cole of Austin, not known to be a bitcoin thief.   but I wonder if this Adam Cole is known to be a bitcoin thief.  it seems unlikely that a healthcare industry CEO would be a scammer though...

Hehe will do.

just quote my post a few more times ;-)

Thanks for the tip, and the post in the accusation thread. It's pretty clear he doesn't care at all about his debt. I stopped short of contacting his friends and family about it, perhaps sometime in the future I'll let them know.

Maybe he doesn't take the community seriously?  Thought he could "get one over" on us?

why do people borrow for the cash, I guess he hoped it would flop?

shame over 50 bucks

What you want to do, so google will find this is go like this:

Adam Cole Seahorn of Mineral Wells Texas USA 76067 may be a scammer

Wait a few hours and see if searching for "Adam Cole Seahorn of Mineral Wells Texas" doesn't pull up your post 

Yeah, there was some suspicious activity. I decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, and got burned. Oh well!

True, that photo of him did give me a good laugh tho. It's like a mugshot, guess he got named and shamed.

Newbie out of nowhere in the Lending section

I knew something was odd about that dude when he paid back 5 BTC then immediately tried to borrow 60 BTC.

Shame, another one bites the dust.

I doubt it. He's been on the forums after I posted it, and still doesn't return emails or phone calls. Lost the coin, but gained valuable methods. Glad it only cost me 1.5 btc.

Hope $190 dollars was worth blacklisting yourself Adam.

This is really sad.

heart_mons, any chance you will pay back the loan even being late?

It is utterly unpleasant that a successful loan deal with me has been used as a trust token for this failed loan.

Posting this here and in the corresponding scammer thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--176899

All correspondence with Adam Seahorn, resulting in his default and theft of loan.

Hello heart_mons,

Are you still looking for a BTC loan?

Forum message, Heart_mons:
Yes sir.  If you are able to lend please let me know what you need from me prior to lending.

Thanks,
Adam

Please send a copy of your drivers license to [email protected], and a photo of you with your face clearly visible holding a sign that says "steamboat" to ***-***-****.

Is the address in the thread the one you would like the coin sent to?

Regards,

Steamboat

Forum message, Heart_mons:
Yes, that works great.  I already sent the photos and DL requested.  I'm texting you now so you have my number (I can do photos on my old phone).

Adam: Here is my DL and me holding up the sign.  I did one with trashboat too because of Regular Show.  It just made me laugh.  My phone is so old school it doesn't have a camera (I drop them more often than not).   So I'll text the word "steamboat" to you so you will at least know my cell number.

Thanks again for your help!
Adam Seahorn






Adam: Here is a photo of it coming across for your records.

Just a reminder your loan is due today.

Regards,

Steamboat

Forum message, Heart_mons:
OK, thanks for the reminder.  It will be later today before I can have some cash switched over to coins but I'll have it for you.

Thanks!

Forum message, Steamboat:
Sounds good.

Forum message, Heart_mons:
I wasn't able to get money transfered over tomorrow.   If I have it for you today will that be OK?  Sorry for the delay.

Forum message, Steamboat:
Yes, it will be fine if you have it for me today.

Forum message, Steamboat:
Hello Heart_mons,

You are now two days late on a 7 day loan. Do you have a realistic idea of when you are going to be able to repay the loan? Please let me know what's going on, I do not want to make assumptions.

Have a wonderful day,

Steamboat

Forum message, Heart_mons:
Could I have until next Tuesday to pay you the 2BTC and I'll thrown in an extra $20 worth of BTC for the trouble?

Forum message, Steamboat:
I will extend it to Tuesday. Please post in your thread "requested an extension for .28 additional btc. 3.28 btc to be paid back no later than the 26th of March, 2013"

Regards,

Steamboat

Forum message, Heart_mons:
I'm not going to be able to repay you today.  I just don't have any funds available to buy bitcoins at the moment.  I'm not sure when I can repay you right now but any funds I can secure in bitcoins will go directly to you until I've re-payed you in full (Meaning I'm not spending money while ignoring my obligation to you and I honestly have no cash to convert right now).  

I'm working on getting cash to repay you.  I'm not going anywhere or dodging out on this.  I'll update you later today when I hopefully have funds to send.

My apologies,
Adam

Forum message, Steamboat:
Adam,

I'm sorry to hear you are having difficulties. I will extend the deadline to the end of the week to repay BTC3.28. If you cannot pay by then we will work something out.

Have a wonderful day,

Steamboat

Forum message, Steamboat:
Adam,

I have given you a week interest-free to give you time to repay the loan. How do you propose we settle this?

Adam,

I have messaged you on bitcointalk.org and your phone in an attempt to reach you regarding your loan. Please reply to let me know what your current situation is.

Sorry a bout that.  I get paid on Friday so I can at least have one BTC sent to you then.  

April 4th, gmail, Steamboat:
Adam,

I am glad to hear from you. That will work. Please keep me posted.

Regards,

Steamboat

April 4th, gmail, Adam:
Will do.  Sorry for the delay on replying.

April 8th, gmail, Steamboat:
Adam,

I have not received any word from you regarding your loan. If I do not hear back from you today your loan will be considered in default.

Regards,

Steamboat

April 15th, gmail, Steamboat:
Adam,

I have marked you as a scammer on bitcointalk.org and released your information.

April 15th, gmail, Adam:
OK

April 15th, gmail, Adam:
So my license and everything is online?

April 15th, gmail, Steamboat:
I have withheld the information you provided for the time being. If you continue to ignore your responsibilities I will release that as well.

April 16th, gmail, Steamboat:
Adam,

You have until Wednesday, April 17th to honor your loan. If you do not respond by then I will be forced to release your information.

April 16th, gmail, Adam:
I can't pay you by then.  I know for sure.

Sent from my iPad

April 16th, gmail, Steamboat:
Very well. This is obviously not a priority for you. Due to your continued disregard of your responsibilities, lying about paying the loan, and purchase of coins not used to repay your loan, I will be releasing your information and all correspondence shortly. Any persons/companies I believe should know about your default will also be contacted.



Edit: typo

Post a link to this thread to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

Adam seahorn https://www.facebook.com/adam.seahorn, has ignored all attempts to reach him. I am releasing the identity he used to acquire the loan.

I'm marking heart_mons a scammer. Repeated attempts to collect via forum, email, and phone. Gavel ample time to make it right.

Thanks heart_mons for helping me refine my loan requirements.
