I removed the details of this post that originally called out specifics on the thief and his to close for comfort connections.
[ I will keep all of my notes,screenshots and evidence in safe keeping... just in case. ]
The thief gave the money back after some magnum p.i action.
I said in the original post, I would remove the details if he simply returned the funds.
And since he actually did...I will keep my word despite what I really should have done.
Hell, It's Thanksgiving Day and even Scumbags need something to be thankful for.
I was an idiot and gave money to a guy that I thought was legit and selling a mining rig..
I went to send him a thank you email and ask for the tracking number for shipping...
That's when I noticed: he deleted his email account, he acted like skype broke,
he tried to cover tracks on his profile and in this forum once he knew I was getting closer.
But in the end, he gave the money back. So I will keep my word...
The Karma police will just have to take over from here and deal with him sternly.
< No dufus, The real cops aren't involved... so chill out and look up 'Karma Police' on Google. >
Lesson Learned: ESCROW
Anyone know of any secure escrow sites to use to mediate
the transfer of funds with people you SHOULD CLEARLY NOT TRUST?
I welcome, any tips and info on escrow and safety nets that could help lots
of folks from making a serious mistake while transacting with BTC via P2P.
DON'T LET JERKS LIKE THE GUY IN THIS INCIDENT GET AWAY WITH THEFT & GIVE BTC A BAD NAME.
The internet really isn't that anonymous... when you combine Google and old fashioned Spidey senses.
Final word to the thief:
YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, YOU NEED HELP. GET IT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
A POSITIVE ROLE MODEL IS WHAT YOU NEED,GET HELP!
