Bitcoin Forum

Here's a heads up to the community for a member, idyu (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=554223).

I recently put a neutral trust rating on him because he was only excepting LBC escrow (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1202161) (archive (https://web.archive.org/web/20151008185117/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1202161)) and seems pretty aggressive when I asked him about it on his thread. It was just a comment, though, so the trust rating was neutral and I was planning on removing it if he had a successful transaction anyways.

Shortly after, he sent me a PM asking me to remove the rating.


Seemed polite and agreeable enough. However, the topic remained unchanged for a few hours (he was online for the period), so I sent him back a PM saying that I would not. Again, it was only a neutral.

However, he sent me a negative rating. ::) This is what he sent back.


As you can see, he seemed pretty suspicious in what he said. Why would there be a need to create a new account if he was legit?

So this is a quick warning to those that "idyu" (or whatever his future alts will be called) seems like a shady character.

According to some threads that I have been reading , the idyu guy seems to be a serial scammer whose skype is miss.tyty , but the accusation was not strong enough for anyone to give negative trust and it was just abandoned as OP didn't put much effort in the accusation as well

read again your wrong

@op i have my reasons ehy i ONLY accept lbc (after i have read some users escrow for them self)

and about the scammer , if im a scammer why i did not scammed the 1 btc i bought from jakez? i paid via skrill cc chargeback is easy

please think before read

yes ok i insulted you it was not ok  but you should not post a feedback even neutral if you not know my reason of denying escrow here

That doesn't clear up why you mentioned that you'll simply create a new account. In my eyes, that was seriously suspicious.

Also, is this guy (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=558763) your alt? ::)

But like I said, I have 1 neutral trust on you vs. your 2 negative trusts on me. (I don't really mind them.) I will remove my neutral comment on your profile if I see you are having many successfully transactions and such.

And don't try and fake it.

Same thing happened to me when I responded to him, threatening other members of the forum , by opening 100+ alts and spamming negative trust on the person's account, by giving a negative trust. In return he gave me a false negative feedback saying I scammed him 0.1 btc.

Yes. He told me in a PM that the account that gave me the fake scam rating wasn't his alt, but I find it highly coincidental that we both pointed him out and then got negative trust ratings from new accounts.

However, I don't worry much about the ratings themselves because anyone with have a mind will ignore them. My untrusted feedback list is a mess, anyways. ::) It makes me believe further that idyu is just one of the many accounts that he uses.

But like I said previously...

I wouldn't say idyu is a good scammer, rather he is good at finding people who are vulnerable to being scammed. It is really unfortunate to see this happen, but the fact that he's talking about making multiple accounts whenever he is accused of scamming would indicate that he's shady at best and probably not worth dealing with as he's ready to ditch his account at a moment's notice. Everyone beware!

Some bump

I did refuse forum escrow yes and yes i deleted some posts that is indeed fishy

But i refused it after i have read quickseller escrow for himself i di think where is the escrow point then.

I bought over 1 btc from jakez via skrill and i did not reversed he can confirm

Anyway il agree from now on to use forum escrow

Another update on this idyu guy, seems like an alt of kralle also I am having doubts if Jakez is his alt as well: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1104444.0
Edit: Both users, jakez and idyu went offline at the same time, makes it seem more shady https://web.archive.org/web/20151013162211/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=106010 https://web.archive.org/web/20151013162211/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=106010 , shady at best though.

What I find the most suspicious is how exactly did idyu start selling MSDN accounts, receive negative trust from Vod and then well under 30 days later have his negative trust removed.

Nothing with much evidence to start pointing fingers. All we can do is warn the community by this thread (and a couple of other ones I saw floating around about idyu) and maybe a few neutrals like I did.
