Well honestly it's your fault for being so gullible, OP.


Believing others is natural, most have to learn hard way, myselves included. I lost few buck over internet as well few years ago, but not since then  Smiley

For those interested, I didn't know anything about escrows until I read this and started doing some research. Turns out blockchain's My Wallet service has a built in escrow service. https://blockchain.info/wallet/escrow



Nope, they removed multisig transactions a while ago I believe.

Ah your right, just went in and tried to verify. Sorry for the bad information... Sad

Stupidity is not reversible in the btc world

Valuable lesson learned. Keep your chin up.

That is a bummer man. We are our own banks in the BTC world, next time be more responsible.

Sign a message for people know its a scammer ... maybe someone "take back" the coin will give you back ( Probably not. )

Just lost three bitcoins. One person asked me to send him bitcoins and after that he will send me money but he didnt. I know i was a fool. Can I get those back somehow?

That sucks, is it someone from Bitcointalk?

Wouldn't a sane person get the money first before sending the BTC?

Well, I'm sorry I don't buy this! How can you send 3 bitcoins in the first place, without knowing or using an escrow?
It seems you're post hunting myfriend and everbody else in here joined the party with you.
In case you did lost 3 coins... well.

it does sound outrageous, but i generally find people to be gullible.. so i wouldn't discount his claims at all.

*facepalms* what can be said that hasn't already? If you have more than 3 btc. I suggest you keep them and never trade again!

No but when someone is talking to you about investing make sure its legit
Whoever scams is a weirdo who can't make money for themselves so they got to fool people

Nope, it was a cheap lesson well learned.
Do you know who he was, perhaps on this forum so we can be careful of him?
Also, always use escrow.
