Title: Anyone Know bl4kjaguar? Post by: ranlo on July 23, 2015, 12:27:48 AM I, like others, got hit by bl4kjaguar (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=124662), who had an EXCELLENT reputation (with many thousands of 100% positive ratings on LocalBitcoins). Essentially, he took loans from a few of us for his LBC business, since he was buying and selling bitcoins for profit. He ended up (or so he claims) deciding he knew a "faster" way to get profit, and threw everything he had into a coin's ICO, which flopped right after (and the one he did was clearly a scam to begin with, but he claims he felt that it was a sure win and he was going to dump them as soon as they went up in value).
He's since then given a lot of stories, including asking for more loans: 1) He asked for a loan so he can get his business off the ground again 2) He asked for a loan because his "wife" is "beautiful" and would be a great model and all they have to do is move to LA to make it happen, but don't have the money to do so He also claims he owes others money. I'm aware of at least one on the forums, and he claims h'e also indebted to his family. I tried to be lenient and give him time. He's now been away from the forums for over a month. So here's what I'd like. If anyone dealt with him in person (he did a lot of in-person LBC transactions) or knows more information about him, can you please share it so we (as his debtors) can pursue him? With his thousands of ratings, I'm sure someone has information about him. Thanks, guys, and this goes to show you that even someone with a stellar reputation can go rogue at any time.

Looking at his trust summary (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=124662), he defaulted on a loan from haploid23 roughly 9 months ago. If you lent him money after that, then I am not sure what you were expecting.

In fact, the last day he was online (according to his log) was the last time we spoke. |
