Title: Scammer - trake Post by: BCB on August 25, 2012, 02:33:42 AM Evidently user trake has been flipping between BCT and Bitcoinary scamming users, receiving PPUSD and not sending coin.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=printpage;topic=102291.0 So far the following users have claimed to be scammed. starsoccer9 had a 14.5 BTC trade reversed. https://blockchain.info/tx-index/10520593/4baadc5040adecab43caa9bfff507c63b06ae88c398799dcf40ff8f2307f9ba2 https://i.imgur.com/g0h8L.png wub was scammed by Trake posing as user Xeser on bitcoinaryand for $81.27 USD Message in your payment email:wallet address:1K3WXSLLPgGi8jzQ6BWSyEBzmRSjqmNbcD https://i.imgur.com/X57J2.png james.w was not paid on a 10 BTC trade. https://i.imgur.com/NRTl4.png If user trake does not make arrangements to pay or refund I'll release his real name, home address, cell phone number, ip address and other personally identifying information and the scammed users can pursue the case further. I'm also holding funds sent to me by trake in escrow that will be returned to him upon full repayment or used to repay the scammed users. I also have emails where he has admitted to the scams and has promised to repay. These too will be released if necessary. Title: Re: Scammer - trake Post by: Maged on August 25, 2012, 04:10:38 AM Great! That seems like some good evidence there. However, that could be anyone. Could you post proof that these transactions are linked to the user in question?
Also, does this user have a Bitcointalk account? Were any of the transactions made over Bitcointalk? If not, do you have evidence that the two accounts (assuming he has a Bitcointalk account) are the same person? How were the escrow funds sent to you?

Title: Re: Scammer - trake Post by: BCB on October 06, 2012, 12:53:08 AM you're out of luck starsoccer9
I don't think anyone is getting anymore money out of Trake unless you got to Pittsburgh and find him. |
