Finally a decent report for once, gj
Thanks everyone for taking care of this guy, there are plenity of scammers with negative trust around the forum locking threads, something has to be done over there.

Fake quote, I am not involved in this deal,
nobody did not appeal to me for escrow.
OP you should always ask sign Escrow address .

Most of the positive feedback is from accounts with ZERO posts and created/last login the same day.
Looks (obviously) fake to me as well.
Lesson: Always check and confirm escrow instructions with the escrow provider directly. Never rely on copy/paste and quoted instructions provided by anyone you transact with. This generally applies to all escrow trades, not just to this particular scam accusation and I hope users here will learn from these scam attempts (luckily it didn't go beyond a mere attempt).
And that's good due diligence work there. Checking the trust and trade history and making an intelligent decision about it. Sensing something amiss or fake was a good move there.
The scammer must be unhappy to see things aren't working out in his favour. No coins and now a ruined trust rating. Not a profitable weekend for him.

Additional Notes: Looking at this guy trust score I don't know how he'd managed to make that many positive exchanges lately

I have pointed him to this thread - let's read what he has to say.
Look at the References. They don't seem to lead to or prove anything. Perhaps these 100+ BTC risked Trust shills should get some red as well.
