I think that established/advertising Lenders should be voted in as MODs for the Lending section in order to see IP addresses of prospective borrowers so that in case of scams etc, they could get started on ID legwork immediately and not have to rely on Theymos or anyone else if under time constraints.

Patrick, Burt, Kluge, Ina, senbonzakura......? ....others ?

This would definitely help in the pursuit of info gathering for defaulted loans and user identification etc.

Whaty happens when the MODS turn out to be scammers themselves ?

Yes, it's obvious I haven't been repaid. That doesn't take any intelligence. If that's all you wanted to know, then you'll be satisfied.

I don't think satisfied is the right word... We are not that bad. At least I'm not, and I will not be satisfied by knowing you got scammed :-(

Just so people are aware, because there is some interest in this, I have funded 70 coins to Milkman39.

I have a variety of information requested and provided and potentially a very nice watch.

But, did you get the watch first? Like in: before sending him the 70 BTC?

I can collect at my leisure if I need to, either in person or by proxy.

I wish I could say the present outcome wasn't expected when I asked the question quoted above...

That gave it away Grin

Guess you should've got the watch beforehand - it's sad seeing what people can do and say for a small sum of money.. Sad

Offer collateral is an old trick specially how forthcoming he acted in the beginning. It sets up the victim for the villan perfectly since the victim eventually feels its to much effort to take the collateral and act on the word of the villan.

In this case if Patrick ever made it clear, Watch first then coins, milkman would have just vanished and nothing would have been stolen.

Due in two days - I have a collection agent lined up. Nicholas Milks is very easy to find.

As an aside, he does like hockey, and seems to have a son. I know his work history, and his dad is Norman (around 60 years old), and has a nice, modest house.

A new update is available, but in the interests of commerce, it is available by private subscription.

Using my special Milkman39 address 1GJxrD74LoNC2x6pijY8Xe55ASdK74iyko you need to send 1 BTC plus a small random number of santoshi's and verify the amount by pm to receive the "what happened next" update. (for example, 1.0003428)

I still think you guys should be made MODs and the current 'Cabal' of larger lenders take control of the Lending forum.
I think you guys all share information and consult each other currently, so you are in a perfect position to further streamline things around here.

Actually, from a governance point of view, that would be a mistake.

As lenders, there may be occasions where moderators need to step in and provide an alternative point of view. This separation of functions is important in many places, and I would not like to be in the conflicted position of having to pass judgement on my own actions - that would be a bad outcome for all concerned. This is much like the SEC overseeing trading banks, and I'm sure most people wouldn't like to know the banks set the rules and then chose to ignore them without having to answer to anyone.

It is worth noting that over the past three months I've become a little wiser and am getting slightly better information from new customers. Having said that, I also have a group of long-time customers that have proved their reliability and who I am happy to continue lending to without extra information.

In this case, I have good contact information, address, phone number, cross-references to other family members.

It is also worth nothing that some of the potentially fraudulent borrowers are being put off by the extra scrutiny, by either disappearing or changing their minds about requests. That's a pretty natural evolution.

I'd also like to note I had a play on one of INAU's games and risked 75 coins for fun (got back 60) and not too fussed about the loss as my holdings have grown quite a bit over the past six months. So while this 70 coin loan might be bad, it certainly doesn't break the bank.

But after I was burned on my very first loan here -and I admit I did no checking, I trusted the judgement of veteran lenders here- Every deal here looks suspect to me. I would be very happy to see this loan work and restore a certain amount of trust in people.....

I too have some hope for humanity, but I leave most of the charity stuff to my wife because she is nicer than I am. Sucks that your first loan went bad, but then that's the nature of the forum and the lending "game". My preference is to help some, not get ripped by to many and earn some decent interest off others to fund the first and cover some of the second. That's not an invitation to pick on my good-will, and I am known as "Mr Hold-a-grudge" to some. (Ask my dead mother in law about that if you don't believe me.)

I suspect betting on loan default might provide some people with an advantage.

Referring to some of the above comments:
- yes they are new and never claimed knowledge of rexcoin - Matthew and Psy appear to have missed the mark with their responses.
- it is possible to convert coins to cash fairly quickly, but it wasn't claimed that he actually did. Maybe they went to the store with a credit card.
- I still find it "interesting" that people are always looking for the bad in every deal that occurs, often when working with a very small amount of information.

On a side note today is the first day of hockey for my son. I am super excited. He is even more bouncing off the walls because he got to pick out his new equipment. Again thanks to Patrick he was able to do this. I am so happy there are still good people in this world.

For future reference, I know a pawn shop that would be delighted to make you a loan against a verifiable Tag, up to 50% of the current resale value, terms 30 days at 5% monthly juice, extendable by mutual agreement up to one year. For credentials you can check out Pawn Queens on the Discovery Channel. You deal not with the Queens, but the guys behind the scenes that actually own the place.

He did not due to the fact that he is in another continent. I offered to send it. We discussed terms and agreed upon them. I will not be defaulting on this. I am looking to gain respect among a great community. I have had a bad streak of luck lately and needed some help. I am so glad that there are genuine people left in the world.

I have an elated son as well. He is so happy that he is going to be able to play hockey now.

I am a happy father because the $500 I had already paid to sign him up will not be going to waste. I am actually super excited for him. Only a week away on Wednesday. So really like 9 more wake ups. I don't know who's more excited lol. I know he probably is.

I truly thank you from my heart Patrick. You are an amazing person and I am grateful to be able to chat with you. I actually have had the shoe on the other foot. I have made loans to people I have never met and to be honest I can only remember being taken twice. Of course that was in my younger years when I was living at home and didn't have a wife or child to care for.

Anyways I will be keeping yinz updated on my sons hockey if you want. I am so proud that I have the ability to be a great father. Again may god bless you Patrick.

Hey,

I love how people have called me a scam since day one. I have not stole/scammed anything from anyone. I have not done anything wrong. I did not know that it was a scam to try for a loan. Especially with collateral. I am not asking for a "unsecured" loan.

Also I have called the pawn shops in my area and they do not buy new watches. It's bullshit. I have the paperwork as well as the box for it. My wife got it for me on our 5 year anniversary(not married that long, but been together that long). I really want the item back but I will consider selling it if the price is right. I have already spoke with her about it. If you don't believe me that's fine but I am telling you the truth. If you want to check up on me I am located in Buffalo NY. Go ahead call the pawn shops and they will all tell you that they do not want it because it's not brand new release and it's not old enough to take in as well.

I was also wondering about the pawn shop route - you're after a 240 loan on an 800 watch. It would be a shame to have to sell it, and you wouldn't get nearly enough compared to purchase price. I was also interested because I like the Tag designs, but gave up wearing watches a few years ago because I didn't need one. I'm also going assume this loan would be replacement for the ice hockey gear (and I am aware some kids in Europe basically learn to skate the same time they learn to walk).

I think the main thing that puts me off is the term is quite long and I'm not sure how you would repay.

My wife got it for me on our 5 year anniversary(not married that long, but been together that long). I really want the item back but I will consider selling it if the price is right. I have already spoke with her about it. If you don't believe me that's fine but I am telling you the truth. If you want to check up on me I am located in Buffalo NY. Go ahead call the pawn shops and they will all tell you that they do not want it because it's not brand new release and it's not old enough to take in as well.

brb keeping up with the Kardashians

Give me a fucking break. You finally get out of newbie mode and make a beeline to the Lending section with your 02/2012 reg date and 18 whole posts. Seems like a cookie cutter scam to me.

Why go through all the trouble of sending an 800$ watch in the mail to borrow 60btc that you
would have to convert to USD ( unless you have a sports store that accepts btc) - not knowing
how much you will get exactly and when you will get it. Wouldn't it be easier to find a pawn shop and get cash?

Well, he does have a point there. Going the pawn shop route should be faster and more cheaper too IMHO

Post #47 is the exact watch. I will get the warranty information and box together in a picture soon.

That will not be a problem. I just don't want anyone who is not trustworthy to respond. So if you don't have people that can vouch for you please do not waste my time. I am not shipping off a watch to some guy that has no credibility.

I am offering the watch as collateral because I don't have credibility. Trying to gain some. Plus I need to get my son his hockey equipment and this was one of the few things the person who broke into my house didn't get. I keep it buried in my closet.

Also, because people will probably ask: a picture of the watch, with a note that has your username and the date written on it.

+1 including the warranty cards and the presentation case too for the sake of authenticity.

Hello,

Yes I am new but I am in need of a 60 BTC loan by this weekend. I have a Tag Heuer Formula One watch that I would be will to mail as collateral. I can overnight the item so I can have the coins for needed time frame. The watch is valued at 800+ USD. Please PM me if intersted.

You must be a trusted member as well because I am not going to lose an 800.00 watch for a 240.00 loan. I will make payments to you. I would be looking at a 3-6 month loan. We can discuss terms via PM. Let me know. If you would like to buy the watch I would be willing to do that as well. We can discuss via PM.

It would be helpful if you could give exact details of the watch, like the model (TH F1 series spans over 100 models tbh). Also, if the authenticity could be verified (cards etc) it would be better as counterfeits of TH are so commonplace.
