Tried to send 4-5 more messages and nothing.. the funds were deposited from my wallet to theirs then tried to sell so I don't see how I could commit fraud or anything.

This has nothing to do with that you clearly can't read the first post dumb ass. The dispute was over and once funds returned to my account I cannot withdraw. I will lock this and contact a lawyer cause it's against the law

So I was in an dispute wiTh a seller and my funds were held in escrow finally after 3 days of arguing and trying to get my money back I win the dispute and then once I try to withdraw my funds I get a error and to contact support LOL.

So I email them and they tell me the security team is looking over my account!!! But for what? I never buy from there only sell my coins so there's no way I could fraud anyone also without my contest they gave over my personal information to a seller which I will be taking legal action

Whoever wants to do business here please think twice

If you could post with screenshots of your communication with the support and with the opposite party it would help all of us to understand what exactly is going on. Local bitcoins site is reputed as far as I know. But I haven't used them personally.

LocalBitcoins is the most legit site for buying/selling bitcoins I've encountered so far.They have very good security mechanism unless you don't know the abc's of the bitcoin system.They've have amazing support and a very supportive forum.Please tell us something we need to know.

The site is legit - and most of the people there are. Just be careful and if it looks too good a deal to be true - it almost definitely is.

I'm sorry,

but this is quite unclear to me as a reader and brings up all kind of questions (you've got a dispute with a "seller", OK... Why accuse LocalBitcoins then... But then it's LocalBitcoins that has security issues with you, OK... But you are always a "seller" there... strange... two "sellers" in one transaction... but it were your funds that were held in escrow, right... but weren't you a "seller"... et cetera).

Could you please try to use the proper Scam Report Format.

Don't get me wrong, just trying to get a clear picture so I (and "we" all here) can help wherever we can...
