Title: Beware BFL Scams (I really didn't think this was needed until...)
Post by: the joint on March 12, 2013, 01:33:42 AM
I'm almost dumbfounded by the stupidity I witnessed in another thread which appears to have recently been deleted. 

Basically, the other thread was created by a newbie claiming to offer a "Japolino" (I shit you not) that had been used for "15 days" for 5 BTC.

Unfortunately, this offer caught the attention of another newbie who was interested in purchasing it.

In response to this newbie's interest, I made some smart-ass comment along the lines of, "If you're going to just give your money away, please pick me instead."

To my utter astonishment, the reply I got was essentially, "Hey, I'm trying to make a deal here and I'm waiting for a response from the seller."

For the love of God, if you're new, please be more responsible with your money.  And whoever you are that was interested in a "Japolino" for 5 BTC, maybe you're not ready for Bitcoin quite yet.
