Thumbs up for this! a thread that is helpful in local transactions, I think the first thing a person to do if he/she
is the buyer is look for the level of trust of the vendor, the vendor should do the same as well, they both need
witness or a bodyguard if the going get tough! that is  Grin

Thank you for providing this.

Might I also suggest that if you do trade in a mall, I prefer to go inside a bank and do it, as the banks have more security than a mall.
banks will kick you out if they know that you are using bitcoin  Cheesy Cheesy
i don't have any issue about that users of bitcoin are not allowed to their banks, and it think they can do that because they need a customer and if they not accept you they lose 1 customer.

It is very good experience that you shared with us about doing local transactions, Like what you said is not only checking the place of transaction but we should also be knowing the knowledge of most exchages , like which exchages are good for transactions.

In my experience i trade in local transactions but its a worth only some times its a danger once i got cheated in my local transactions few months back i sold some btc worth 30$ but they payed me in local currency INR but that currency is Fake... so before selling trade with carefully

What you told is right but in your case you should be having the knowledge of how to find the fake currency, because when you deal with them not only place or location but you should also have knowledge of fake currency.
yeah great observation, you must know the real one and those fake, because if you don't have any knowledge about the fake and the real currency they can fool you.

In response to the OP, the counterfeit detector machines - www.itestcash.com/blogs/itest-university/29790081-the-science-of-counterfeit-money seem like the best way to go for checking money. Some people have reported that the pens  - http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6300 aren't as effective as the machines in part cause the pen mostly checks the ink on the paper while the machines look at various security features including watermarks and security strips.

As far as buying bitcoins from an untrusted stranger, the risk of double spending (due to either a Race attack or a Finney attack) is significant enough to require at least one confirmation (or a Green address transfer or a service such as a LocalBitcoins "Transaction" where the funds released to the buyer would always be already-confirmed funds).

Before you buy bitcoins, you must makes sure that you buy it from the trusted exchanger. Many exchanger which scam on internet, so we must be careful. we need to buy bitcoins which already popular and many people who buy bitcoins via the exchanger for years
Yeah the popular exchanger of bitcoin in your county,is the safest exchanger. they become popular because with their service and they 100% trusted and not a scam, in philippines the popular exchanger is the coins.ph i use it for almost 7 months.

Are there any other sites like localbitcoins.com that offer escrow services for local transactions?

 Hello all, I am first time here and if I post wrong please apologize and help me how I can proceed.
blockchain steal from me money and don`t want to respond me anymore. Because I opened some tickets on their zendesk about their API latency they suspend my account on zendesk and my last transactions from them dosen t enter anymore in my wallet. I contact them through another zendesk account and they block me again without telling me nothing. I make another zendesk account and I promise them that I will make reports and I will write on forums about their services and because they suspend my account I don`t understand why and why I didn t receive my money, they answer me only this, "You violated our TOS and you are no longer our client". But for what? and in any case you don t need to inform when happen this? and my transactions that i didn t receive whats happen? I have many clients who pay through blockchain API with  shortcodes from btcaddr.es and before I can inform them all about the problem and I  will change the payment method they will send transactions, what happened with that money? is it normal that they proceed like this and don`t want to answer  me anymore with any detail?

I was just about searching the same information before opening a similar thread, but I have found your one useful enough not to make another one. It contains some data, I have not even thought of. Thank you! Saved in bookmarks.
