SCAMMER Warning: illWill has scammed me for 45 BTC. I gave him the benefit of the doubt, and sent first. He claimed he was waiting for his Bitcoin client to complete a blockchain update, and now is not responding to PM's, eMails or texts. He called me from this phone number: 214-250-0616 The PayPal (verified) address he had me send to: crywolph@gmail.com illWill profile: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=65732 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=65732) Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: greyhawk on January 11, 2013, 02:10:03 PM You got scammed by a guy named "ill will"?

Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: Darktongue on January 12, 2013, 02:45:04 AM What I always wonder is how many of his buyers prior to you actually bought coin from him. youhm have one poster with 57 posts another with 9 who have apparently bought. And another poster who hasn't said anything. So fuck.. I hope paypal helps you

THANK GOD Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: TheButterZone on January 13, 2013, 09:08:25 AM Hey man i just saw your "Lost and Found" post. http://blockchain.info/tx/92d3c868acdcaf25bb8b7fa85fe5e2035ee8af0e600159ae4b3d1a11035d7ae8 This is mine sir. I started to lose my mind a bit over the last few days because I do not know how it got to you. How do i prove this as I know you want proof? Needless to say, he didn't prove it via the steps I outlined in my reply PM. Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: Blazr on January 13, 2013, 10:29:01 AM Interesting:

Haha wow, put everyone who calls out scams on your ignore list. What a fucking genius. Deserved to be scammed in my opinion. Dear LoweryCBS, Please don't reproduce. Signed, Humanity Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: LoweryCBS on January 13, 2013, 10:14:02 PM ... Deserved to be scammed in my opinion ... Your post, while equal to greykawk's in quality of contribution, is different in one important way: Yours is actually extraordinarily harmful to the bitcoin community as a whole. I've since learned that illWill, under a different username (but with the same email address), has scammed (at least) two other forum users prior to myself. Perhaps if these other users had created a detailed scammer-thread, I could have searched and discovered the connection. But rather than elicit responses such as yours, they instead slink away from the community (and bitcoin itself) subsequently writing it off as a cesspool of fraud, and won't hesitate (in the real world) to warn others away from bitcoin. My skin is thick, however, and the relatively small amount that illWill worked his many months to claim as his ill-gotten prize pales in comparison to the returns I've enjoyed by trusting those that warrant trust. None the less, the end result is the same: Your ignore indicator is now a bit more yellow than it was this morning. Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: furrycoat on January 14, 2013, 02:10:37 AM Sorry to hear about that, ive been scammed to.

THANK GOD I needed a rather hefty WU/BTC exchange a while ago and he messaged me. I was so close to sending him the coins. Title: Re: Scammer WARNING: illWill Post by: Blazr on February 02, 2013, 01:47:10 AM No, RETARD, you and alikes, people lacking any fucking sense of "something is not right", are doing the biggest harm to this community. Just fuck off, OK? You've got 45 posts and a piss-coloured ignore button. I see your opinion matters a lot. Also, to LoweryCBS, it seems like a bad idea to tell you this as we've done a PayPal to BTC trade before, but it isn't difficult at all to reverse this transaction if you call up your CC company and file a chargeback.

Thanks for pointing that out. In addition to, um, goldenrod and grey, what other colors do the ignore buttons come in? On to the main idea... Is this a business opportunity to run an escrow service?

In addition to, um, goldenrod and grey, what other colors do the ignore buttons come in? The darker the shade of orange it is, the more ignores that person has. subSTRATA's is the darkest it gets. On to the main idea... Is this a business opportunity to run an escrow service? Plenty of people offer escrow services on the forums, people don't usually use them for BTC to PayPal transactions though. |
