Well when scammers run out of ideas... They turn escrows themselves. LOL.

Just make sure that when you deal with anyone on this forum you use a trusted escrow(monbux, SebastianJu etc. etc.), and make sure that you actually have a message sent to you directly from the escrow.

Don't accept anything less than that, do not accept a quoted text from the escrow as it is probably fake.

This guy gets red flagged then immediately starts a new account and tries his luck again with a slightly different wording.

He claimed to have sent 0.82 Bitcoin to monbux for escrow but lied. The coins have moved a few times now.

Okay, i can confirm it.

I send the 0.82 btc to monbux and he can release it to you after you have paid.

1 btc at the moment on coindesk.com: $1.249,84

So please send me 1.249,84 (1btc) x0,82 (amount) x0,98 (rate-2%) = $823,5 to that skrill: [email protected]
Important, if you pay not in USD, skrill will charge me with 1,99% FX fee, so in that case, you have to add +2%.
Please also say if you sent it to inform monbux to release the btc to you.

Thanks!

OK.

I will inform monbux when its here, and he will release you the btc.

Please pay the amount to [email protected] at the moment its not here.
We only can send 5 message/hour so its easier to talk in mail, just drop me a mail when you received the mail and paid: [email protected]

I will also inform monbux to release the btc to you.

Thanks.

Someone ban this scammer.

His skrill address needs tagging because he will try again
