Topic: So I was scammed.. Any Help? (Read 796 times)
Sorry, I misread the OP then.
The service was active for a few weeks before he ran off on a 6 month contract
If it was escrowed to him it would of been released after the service was active for a little while
Not held for 6 months.. How exactly would that have helped?

It's 2014 and people are still sending first without using escrow? Wow.
He came back and deleted every single one of his posts

Surely the moderators log the IP addresses of people posting
This is clearly a scam now... I could get in touch with his ISP if we can get the IP address?

It's a start. Usually you'll want to dig as far into google as possible until you can find a hit (or two) that confirm that name with a phone number.
Gaming communities can be pretty close knit
I used to play CS competitively here in Australia a long time ago
If it really is the same guy I'm going to post in a few forums to see if I can get any hits

1.8 btc is already a big amount...
chances are you're pretty f***** . Sorry welcome to bitcoin!
This is all the information I have..
His forum name is btcminor01
Email was [email protected]
His Skype name was Yannik Bindo
He said he worked for a large Power company in Belgium
If you look at his previous posts on the forums he was using his Bitcoins to gamble and if you google his name these sites come up
http://www.esportsearnings.com/players/5465-luce-yannik-milembo/comparisons
and it looks like he plays Counter-Strike as well http://www.sk-gaming.com/player/523-Luce
All these confirm that there is almost definitely someone in Belgium with this name
Oh and here is a lovely picture of him!

Hi All,
Being new to Bitcoin still I made a mistake and put my trust in a group buy that I shouldn't have
The thread is in the Hardware/Mining/Groupbuy forums if you want to look it up
I was an honest and civil as I could be and despite a few people being the opposite of that I have resigned to the fact that he isn't coming back
In lieu of that and still being new I wanted to track down what actually happened with the Bitcoins that were transferred to him
This was the address I transferred a total of 1.8BTC to https://blockchain.info/address/17pjDTzcLzMbsvFHD5yHSJvpSVMuMxnomm
And it shows 1 of those BTCs being spent. Does that mean he transferred it to another account?
This is also the account he is still using his miners on 14An2Q3wUtzcpCAD3Qt4AzUyLPGcdqiyrN on Eligius
Is there anything that can be done with that?
What has everyone that's gone through something like this done?
I'm going to assume though its a live and learn situation
Thanks in advance

In general we can't do much without personal information, however even a full name is a lead. The BTC address is probably useless as BTC can be transferred to un-related people or even put through a mixer.
