In these times of Mass scammers out there, I urge people to use an escrow. There are many good members out there willing to help to secure the bitcoin community, There are also more people willing to do anything to scam you out of your coins, Please just do your research on someone before you part with your hard earned coins.

An escrow list - updated 11/17

Note to mod, I know this is in the wrong section as I am not selling anything, I feel we all need to be wiser, People in the selling forums are less likely to look elsewhere for information on what this is and how it is acheved,
Even if a few people read this and use escrow, Or a few scammers don't get their coins, I will consider this a good job.
Please consider not moveing out the way, This needs to be addressed.

** jan 16

There is a new wave of possible scammers, People who buy up legendary accounts and trade untill they have large sum of money then run, This has been done with a very trusted account recently.

Please be cautious, I am trying to set up a 3 way secure key escrow for my personal escrows to add peace of mind.

I would like to point out, that I do not partake in escrowing forum accounts, I never have and never will, in fact its against the rules on my forum, This is a trust based commodity as it stands, if we keep moving the goal posts as well as the stadium, no one can be accountable for theft!

Keep safe people, dont give up, trust in BTC, suspect people :-)

** April 17

please watch out for fake accounts made to look like hero/legendary escrow accounts, check the join date and the letters of the name exatly! some use numerical 0 instead of alphabetical O, and please watch out for sold accounts! this forum allows selling of any account, so make it difficult to know who's still real, I do not allow selling of accounts on my forum  Roll Eyes
Better not allow before the disease. Therefore, prevention is better.

Darktongue but how it should work? Give me an example, please.

1) Buyer meets seller but afraid to do the deal for the lack of reputation on both sides. (the age old conundrum - who will send first?)
2) They meet an escrow person, someone who's not likely to run with the amount transacted.
3) Buyer sends coins to escrow, escrow confirms acceptance.
4) Seller sends item to buyer, giving tracking numbers to buyer and escrow person.
5a) Buyer confirms acceptance, escrow sends coins to seller.
5b) Buyer states item lost/damaged, escrow mediates the transaction based on evidence of both sides and decides who to send coins to.

Thanks for explaining escrow service.

I have a friend who has been scammed 2 times and now makes transactions with people who do not know, it's time to learn, if you do not mind losing your money, go ahead. But for entrepreneurs like us, it is important to take all the forecasts and make transfers with trusted people, taking the trust as another preventive an escrow
u

Because of the evolution of technology , some people using their talents to fool. Investors must be keen observant not to trust easily. It is necessary to escrow every transaction to prevent scammers around the thread.

Ugh! I just fell prey to this mistake in the last few weeks. Bought used miners from an unknown person (mistake #1) and paid in bitcoin without escrow (mistake #2). Do you know anyone that has had success tracking down people they have sent money to? I know it's unlikely I'll be able to get the bitcoin back from them, but it would bring me great joy to figure out who it is. I recently heard about a "bitcoin hunter" on a podcast that specializes in tracking bitcoin addresses to identities so I'll also reach out to them.

Help if you can and I will stop doing business without a escrow mediator.

Escrow services offer protection against potential scams. Personally, I dont trade without escrow services, even with the services some still try to swindle others.  please lets be safe and always use an escrow.

In this industry trust is a must. I mean we should build each others trust so that we can transact better without any doubts and fears. Yet we need to be vigilant with scammers who want to take our hard earned money. We all sacrificed a lot just to build our own status in this forum so that we will have higher rankings and higher income so we need to protect that. As I research according to Wikipedia "An escrow is a contractual arrangement in which a third party receives and disburses money or documents for the primary transacting parties, with the disbursement dependent on conditions agreed to by the transacting parties, or an account established by a broker for holding funds on behalf of the broker's principal or some other person until the consummation or termination of a transaction; or, a trust account held in the borrower's name to pay obligations such as property taxes and insurance premiums. The word derives from the Old French word escroue, meaning a scrap of paper or a scroll of parchment; this indicated the deed that a third party held until a transaction was completed."
When it comes to protecting our transaction specially in selling our accounts I must say that we need to escrow.

escrow is awesome wisdom. I recommend everyone to employ it in their transactions. For bitcoin to thrive, the scammers must be flushed out.
