 a newbie acount..will not trade with you...dont msg me...

anybody who wanna trade with op use escrow...

no i'm sure you're not. but why would I pay first? i'm not that stupid. let's use an escrow, huh?

YOU MUST BE WILLING TO DO ESCROW OR ELSE NO ONE WILL TRADE WITH YOU...STRICT ADVICE OR SHALL REPORT YOU TO MODS...

don't waste your time with the mods - they don't moderate potential scams. but if this guy won't use escrow, let's all tickle up his trust ratings.

Can you show a proof of funds? Also I wil buy your bitcoins if you agree to use an escrow, if not, you are a scammer.

Let's see a signed message from that address of yours containing the 5 Bitcoins. After that an escrow can be arranged by the buyer when you and him have established clear terms of trade.

An escrow would be your best option @OP if you want this deal to be done, as you are selling below market rates, so people will obviously think you are trying to scam...

Nobody is going to be stupid enough to send you the money without escrow either. Least you can do is prove you have the funds with a signed message from the address you control with the coins in.

 rismail, I understand your concern about being scammed. But without escrow or even a signed proof of ownership posted, the question of your intentions is just as valid.  I would not even consider a transaction like this.

Then show us your bitcoins along with signed message to prove you have it

Plenty of people have used ID before - whether legit or fake - to try scam people in the past. Least you can do is provide proof that you have the coins but doubt anyone will send you money first without escrow as there's no good reason not to use a trusted one here.

SCAM!

Newbie selling btc way under value without any proof of ownership and wants buyer to send first using bank transfer.

Provide proof of your 5 bitcoins here on forum with a signed message with that btc address...or just stop wasting your time to scam someone!

Btw, 5 BTC is £750,but you are selling at £500.Selling under such low price...very very fishy...

post your proof here
signed message of wallet alot of buyer here

Upload the to a file host like imugr then use the insert image feature.
Or just quote this and change the url:

Can you give the link of the image? On which site you hosted the image?

This is what appears while quoting this message. Pretty sure it isn't imgur. Send a better proof and I will buy. (Obviously with escrow)

image is nothing post a signed message of your wallet....to prove you own it

Image with a paper and webpage of localbitcoins wallet showing a balance of 8 BTC...you know that can be easy edited to show anything on the website? lol
Zero proof of your BTC! Just sign the BTC address and that's all to show the right proof.

If they're in his LocalBitcoins account then surely he can't sign a message? I don't get why you don't just sell them on LocalBitcoins instead, though. You might be a legit seller but you definitely have similar behavior to what scammers normally try pull off on here so that's why people are suspicious of you.

First, it's extremely easy to edit a webpage so your screenshot doesn't prove anything at all, absolutely zero. Second, even if you do have that amount it doesn't mean you will send the coins after you receive the payment. IMO the fact you want to pass that as a proof makes it even more suspicious.

This can be solved extremely easy. If you want to find a buyer you need to use escrow. Send your coins to an extremely trusted member of this forum, then the buyer sends you the payment and finally the escrow sends the coins to the buyer. If you don't use an escrow then nobody will/should deal with you. If you're honest you won't have any issues with this method.

BTW here's an image you can use to shut up even more people!

Of course you're totally right, they are your bitcoins (if they really exist) and I won't tell you what to do with them. I just want to prevent people from being scammed, that's all. So I am recommending this to them (not you): This offer is extremely suspicious, therefore you must use escrow if dealing with OP.

If somebody was so suicidal and actually tried to trade with him :

I checked the addy on blockchain

We told you, we have a way to show that you, (A) Own the coins, (B) can transact without fear of scam. The "proof" you offered instead is in no way proof. A cryptographically signed message on the blockchain is. And escrow costs you nothing, why wouldn't you use it? I understand you want to do it your way. That's fine, but your way is insecure.

EDIT:

Oh, well. End of discussion. Unless the Op wants to explain this.

let me know ur country code + whatsapp number...

If he's in the UK which he seems to be it's +44.

Yep, and it was so extremely easy to do. That's exactly my point: what you posted proves nothing at all.

Now either use escrow or stop this nonsense.



To be totally fair he doesn't need to send coins to that specific address to have positive balance in his account. We could have bought the coins there or he could have had a different deposit address in the past (not that I think that's what happened, I'm just saying it's possible).

Dude sorry but LBC gives a new address after every deposit so its obvious this address doesn't have any bitcoins.

I can escrow this if you'd like, though I'm quite certain you'll decline. Please fund the following address with 5.00 BTC

1PNQpSq3ztzyw5EoB3ztiRZ8bdUKY9AaLM (https://blockchain.info/address/1PNQpSq3ztzyw5EoB3ztiRZ8bdUKY9AaLM)

Once this address has been funded, the your coins are safely in escrow and you will most likely find a buyer within 24hrs, if not less. I'll waive my standard 1% escrow fee as well.

You would no problem selling the btc if you would use a reputable member of the forums for escrow. I suspect the main reason you won't is because you do not have such funds or cannot sign a message from a address with the btc in it. If you could, you would. Hence a scam. Do Not Trade!

Would you trade for beach front property in Colorado?

if you know that everyone knows you are full of shit shouldn't you just quit and try a different scam. my advice pretend you have cheap aspics and you are from china it worked on me lol
