I think there is no one here on the forum who is providing this kind of ecsrow Service. By the way thanks for the "caution".

Day by day scammers are updating their tricks to complete their fraudulent activities Roll Eyes. Maybe its being too hard for them to commit scam on the forum now. Thats why choose another way through "Email"

Monbux is providing escrow service by email, but he always signed a message from his addresses.

That pgp message that is posted at the end of the email can be very confusing.

It's simple really: Spend 10 minutes reading into why every mail protocol ever made is absolute garbage, then stop doing any trades via email.

-Users be aware-

There are scammers sending spoofed email with the "from" using: [email protected]

Example of yesterday's conversation:

Code:
*** Please read every line from the instructions for your own safety ****

Hello and welcome to Monbux official escrow services!
You requested escrow via PM and post on my thread ->
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=631008.0
My email can be found on it.
I received your pm and your email request on my thread
If you are buyer, please place your deposit here -> 1Q63GcwHcht2Zrk2H95bnAZ9xquVShb8ew
Every single wallet created for escrow is new, and will be used only for this escrow trade.
So the payment can be tracked from blockchain.info without any other payments from or in it.
Reply to this email ONLY after deposit, without deposit escrow service cannot start.

Terms of service:

1.Seller username
2.Buyer username
3.Item/Digital good will be traded.
4.I escrow only payments via Bitcoin only.
5.If you want to be refunded, your only option for that is before the seller sends the item or after you receive it and don't like it. You cannot request refund if the seller already send the Item/Digital good.
If you receive your item/digital good and its not like it should be, after you turn it back to the original owner, refund will be released.
6.Explain with few words what the trade is and what's the amount for the trade.
7.If you received escrow wallet for deposit, you can deposit anytime you and the seller/buyer got agreement.
8.Escrow service starts only when coins were deposit to the escrow wallet. Please, do not reply to this email before coins were deposit to the wallet, because escrow service starts only after deposit.
9.There is 2% fee for the escrow service, but for every single trade above 20,000$+ fee is only 0.01btc

What is escrow service?
Escrow service explained with simple words: Me (as your escrow) holds the buyer payment (Bitcoins).
Once the payment is protected by escrow (me in this case) the seller can ship the item or deliver the digital goods.
Once the buyer receive his goods and confirm they are working as they should be, coins can be released to the seller.
Coins won't be released before buyer confirmation!

This is official escrow signed automated message.

That's pretty much all the important info... my previous trades and references:

Thanks for using me as your escrow.

Code:
I do not send pm's on bitcointalk since ages, the only escrow service i do is via email.
There is more than enough one signed message from my personal wallet.
I don't like to sound rude but, i setup the escrow rules and not you.
Follow my instructions for your own safety
