Title: francisdean: scammed me of $20 bitcoin [RESOLVED]
Post by: bitcoin revo on September 18, 2016, 07:29:54 PM
User francisdean (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=401290) scammed me of $20 bitcoin, for this trade (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1620604.0).

Here are the PMs that we had:

$20 pp 1:1 rate,

14nfo55ZiRzSgGU5B3KWP5uYBEmokEmEm8

$20 pp 1:1 rate,

14nfo55ZiRzSgGU5B3KWP5uYBEmokEmEm8

I'll send 0.03275BTC to that address and expect $20 into my PayPal account. Does that sound good to you?

Yes

Okay. Sent: https://blockchain.info/tx/b3ef0d8682c95874abd3f61632a52643fc988f72c31927d02654b1d0e899bd3c

Please send $20 to my PayPal account, -snip-

Sent.

He's now blocked me from all PMs. Nothing has come into my PayPal account.

Honestly, I'm just disappointed. Really? $20 isn't even that big of an amount, go get a job.

EDIT: I now see the fact that his email address was changed recently. I should have checked it, of course.

I can also confirm that the account might have been hacked or sold, he contacted me to sell his btc for my paypal and when i said we get an escrow he told me escrows wont help with charge backs and i asked him to sign a message to prove he is the original owner of the account and he told me it was out of the question after he asked me to do the same and he stopped responding.

Its really disappointing to see users with Hero rank and higher scamming for such a small amount.

He could earn a lot more than $20 with that account if he's honest and join's a signature campaign.

hi im talking with cyrus right now, one of the admins of bitcointalk.

i'm the real owner of francisdean AND MY ACCOUNT WAS HACKED!

I will do some investigations on my account once i got access to it again!

currently he banned my account so the hacker can no longer transact using my account!!

and i have some speculations myself regarding this accusation so we'll see once i got access again!

EDIT: I WILL GLADLY REPAY THAT 20 usd (installment) just to clear my profile :( even though i DIDN'T DO IT :(

He was indeed most likely hacked. I've banned the account for now.

After i saw the scam accusation after i asked for a signed message i quickly realized that this was a hacked account including the email change, good thing i saw it before he ran off with all my money.

I see. Hopefully everything can get settled and the account gets back to the right hands at the end of this whole situation.

Thank you, Cyrus, and the original owner of francisdean, for the responsiveness.

Francisdean, you've been trying to contact me via PM but the scammer/hacker blocked me through PM. You need to unblock me for me to answer you through there.

*edit*

It looks certain that Tittiez u=51152 is an Alt of francisdean u=401290 with Wallet Addresses

While the account francisdean was hacked, the user Tittiez scammed bitcoin revo

Code:
