burrito also tried to scam me. He tried the old "let's use Teamviewer to verify your btc" trick.
I will paste here a post I made about it in the currency exchange forum.
Just want to warn everyone that burritos is probably a scammer.
I'll give a rundown of the PMs he has sent me...
1. He is interested in buying BTC with Moneypak
2. If I send first he will take 2 btc and buy a $1620 MP card to pay me with. He ignored my earlier mention of escrow. He asked me to send first despite being a new account with no history. He also showed he doesn't know much about Moneypak. The max amount you can put on a card is $500.
3. He says escrow is kind of expensive but that he would be willing to send first if I would verify my BTC for him using Teamviewer
The Teamviewer idea seems like a dead give away that he is a scammer. The earlier behavior felt sketchy too. Be careful everyone. Scammers seem to respond to just about every one of these threads.
