Doesn't BTCjam use net-arb?  Or are those for bigger loans?

BTCJam takes all your documents and never releases them, even to arbitration.
Plus the lender has to pay for the arbitration process ($300 IIRC) of which they'll probably never see again either.

BTCJam know this, they've known this for a very long time. They just don't care because they get their cut.

Not true at all. You don't have to pay anything, and they do release the documents, but only the Addresses and such.

Does BTCJam ever send these things off to arbitration? 
I've kept my eye on this one to see what BTCJam was capable of doing with the "documents" they collect.

i got some identity emailed to me by this borrower (passport, credit card bill), which maybe other's identity.  although i think these are unuseful in claiming the btc back, just want to post something regarding this borrower.  is it ok to post here?

I think your info on BTCjam is a bit outdated.
Btcjam releases all the info they have on the borrower to the lender, if the borrower defaults, 90 days after the loan should have been paid(at least thats what they say).
BTCjam should use arbitrage for all loans after the 30 mars i think it was if they defaults and BTCjam pays the cost for arbitrage, seems like BTCjam is a bit late in that process thou as it was very recently people started to get arbitrage info on defaulted loans.
I take for granted that BTCjam also have to do the following up at the borrowers country in cases where people refuses to pay after arbitrage has been done as it would be very cost inefficient if maby 20-30 lenders had to apply seperately.

Cuddling, censored, unicorn-shaped troll.
Feedback is 100% on localbitcoins, and he's got all 6 green "yes" on btcjam.
I'm guessing the btctalk account is fake/hacked and has no relation.

Can anyone send a pm to localbitcoins and btcjam accounts and/or to site admins to make sure about that, please?
I'd hate successful scammers being also able to forcibly shut down legit same-name accounts on other sites.

Also I guarantee this scammer has a new username or three and is still scamming on bitcointalk.

Mind giving us them?  So we can be careful  Roll Eyes

I don't really think posts like these are useful. The loan seems legitemate enough, we'll see how it ends.

6 posts and asking for an additional loan before the first one is paid back. That's a classic double dip. There was nothing legitimate about it.

Yes, I know. I made that post before he made the second loan. Again, I regret my decisions.

Amazing!  He is now overdue for his loan.  And he got 2 of them on BTCJam that will never be paid back.  Please be more careful in the future.

He went dark just as soon as he got the loan. Hmm.

Hm, worrysome. I think he'll pay back though, he's a verified user, has good reputation on localbitcoins. Step 1 : Denial

Well it reached 100% so fast. Thanks everyone for support Smiley


oh noh... you're kidding!  i hope it's not gone...  come to think of it, why did OP offered such a high interest rate of 30% in 7 days?  i wonder what kind of business he's doing?  walkeran, mind telling us how would you spend the 3 btc.  can you give us a good reason why you're giving a high interest?  can you PM me your personal details?  oh, these are the questions i should have asked before giving the loan.  i wonder why nobody asked.

walkeran, i have faith that this will turn out as a good investment.  please PM me your personal details (name, id, fb, address, etc), i just want to have an idea who i'm dealing with.  thanks.


Sure I don't mind really. BTCJam asks for all documents, so I believe they trust their system. I'll send you the PM with all the details.

P.S. My biggest shock was that amongst investors there was a young kid :/ I'm feeling too old now.

That would probably be me. Hehe, no worries 'bout feeling old =P. I just have a few BTC and invest in good looking investments.

Hm, tried to invest but it says my balance is insufficient, even after it confirmed. Maybe it'll work after a while.

Yes, a very good collateral.  Since you have it on BTCjam you should send this to escrow or something, I'd be happy to invest a bit in you then Smiley

Ah, that's how it goes. I actually never used a collateral escrow, but which online escrow service "provider"(?) is the most popular/trustworthy?

hi op. i'm tempted to invest in your btcjam listing as i find your localbitcoin account trustworthy.  however, just to be sure, can you post something in your localbitcoin profile that will prove that you own this bitcointalk and btcjam accounts?  thanks.

That's alright Smiley :

Do you have any collateral? How can you pay back 3.9 BTC if you're going to sell it?  Do you have other BTC stored?  If so, why do you need this loan?

At the moment I don't have any other BTC stored and well it's selling/buying for bigger/lesser prices. I can provide any documents/details about myself. Can collateral be a iphone/hp tablet? In addition I'm a working as a part-time receptionist in one hotel, so if disaster strikes I should afford to add a top up to whatever would be left out of BTC.

As long as you're able to ship it cheaply enough that it's still worth the loan, an iPhone/Tablet is perfect collateral.
