When i dealed with him he told me about his frozen bank account and his problems with the skrill account. I wonder why he accepted my skrill offer or if the problems only started after that.

Besides that he claimed personal trouble with the very near family. Different things i wont mention. Though they were all time consuming i guess.

He didnt answer to my sms. I dont know what he is doing. Might be that the problems are way more important to him than spending time on here. Still... accepting receiving money is something he makes fast, thats not fine imho.

Having a very old account doesnt mean you dont leave the community. I know many that left bitcoins because they thought its dead. Price constantly dropping. Losing hope. That kind of thing. Though i think the way he wrote about his personal things, i believe its not someone who bought that account. If it is then he must be quite skilled in telling stories.

Maidak is an old guy here..i think he wont destroy or demote his reputation for 400$.
he will surely pay back with a bonus..
right now he might me thinking of some excuses that would fit here better.

People can change due to circumstances, its not because he traded alot before doesn't mean he will not scam.. this can be a valuable lesson for this community.

Maidak handled a $1600.00++ Escrow for me with No problems at all.  I know when $$ is involved we get short fused....Maybe it's a problem on his end being hacked or something? not sure just hate to think he is dishonest.

Will be watching this thread for the outcome. Hope it's a misunderstanding or something.  Huh

He gave me his private phone number when i couldnt contact him otherwise. He said its easier to get him that way.

I will send him a sms now. Maybe he reacts on me and checks back in this thread.

C'mon Maidak, you really gonna be this stupid? Stealing customer money will result in charges for fraud, operating an unlicensed money service business, money laundering, and tax evasion. The few thousand or so that you may get from this exit scam will become $10,000 to $100,000 of fines and legal fees, and probably time in jail. Not to mention that the reputation you squandered was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars of business.

If he goes through with this I honestly think he must have a serious drug problem.

Why do you believe that this could possibly end up with him owing tens of thousands in fines?

Are you saying that you have the proper license for trading bitcoin?  I'm not sure of anyone that really does on the forum yet... so wouldn't they fall under the same thing (minus the fraud part)?

He probably means something like this: customers that do their trade successfully and get their money are happy customers. Customers that get their money stolen in a trade are unhappy and much more likely to raise a stink and cause issues like alerting authorities.

I paid him in ppmc codes. I worked with him for over 1 month, but not responding 11 days, it's a big issue. Few days, ok, but 11 days, to much. The excuse was that he is in hospital, i will post and picture i received by text, with his leg infection
He was late in paying killyou72 maybe a month or so ago. He picked up the funds almost right away. He had claimed that he was having problems with his bank account but his Chinese partner could still trade with others (I am now suspicious of this statement).

In the hospital but was able to accept bitcoin from someone else, claim to have cashed out at a ATM and then disappears on that member too. Things are just not adding up here.

I updated the negative feedback (as in deleted, added new feedback). Others should be very careful dealing with him. Who knows if he will pay back others with funds taken from other members, you know... like a Ponzi scheme.

Escrow with clear terms will prevent this from happening to anyone else.

I may write code in exchange for bitcoins.
I still suggest, like the others, that Maidak will pay you.  I did some work for him back in the day and I did the work first and then he paid me.  Was quite a nice guy and has been running a business in the bitcoin world for a long time.

The OP seems like a crazy dude typing FUCK YOU FUCK YOU again and again just because things are late.  It's not so cool to blow your top like that.

It's almost certain that Maidak will show up and explain this, but you can't expect everything to happen in 1/2 second.  Just my 2 satoshis on this one.

People change. Just look at TradeFortress, Projects and a few others.

If this was one time, okay but there have been several complaints from different members. If what DjVoodo says is true, fact here is Maidak is still trading while owing others. This is very untrustworthy, not sure how you can see it different.

Maidak owed DjVoodo. Stops responding to him. Maidak accepts bitcoin from shdvb and tells him he'll have payment within an hour, disappears afterwards only to come up with a new excuse. Do you not see anything wrong here, or are you just here to troll / disagree with Quickseller?  Cheesy Let's not make this another Quickseller thread.

Not here to disagree or troll. Just thought it was relevant to add that I've had a good experience with Maidak and that's about all I really can add (of relevance).  I'm not saying it's right to delay or cetera, but 450$ is a good amount of money and I believe (I may be wrong) that Maidak will make this right.

The worst is being strung along for money you are owed. I've texted/contacted people for months for less than $100 owed. Always with some new, crazy excuse of why they don't have funds. I've never done a transaction with Maidak, but when he states he will pay in 1 hour and then comes up with excuses, never good.

Good luck with recovering what you are owed.

Because the late was no more than 12 hours, only 1 time was for few days. Why are you fighting me now? I worked with him because he was what i need for my business, that is why. Paying late, was not such a big problem. The problem is now, when i got screwed.
I am not fighting with you. I am just letting you know the importance of good customer service. It is obviously up to you who you want to trade with however I wouldn't trade with someone who often takes that long to send Bitcoin after they receive funds (or vice versa).

My payment is for $1125, i deal with him in the past for over 100 btc, over 80% of transactions with late payments, but this...i will give him my last bit of trust until tomorrow.

What payment method? Did you pay Maidak / Derek himself or someone else?
