Title: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: Zaizoun on April 09, 2017, 10:23:11 AM What happened:: This dude wanted to buy from me 1.8 BTC for WU , So I told him that he must escrow to finalise the deal.
After some hours , he returned and sent me this message : Quote Ill take them at Bitstamp +10% as previously agreed. Current price = $2354.81 Have dropped monbux a pm to let him know the deal is back on. OK Escrow in now live again with monbux, second time lucky. Price will be set at Bitstamp rate +10% at time you send bitcoin to Escrow. Payment will be made by bank transfer or Western Union (cash deposit + I can pm you picture of receipt before you agree to release the bitcoin to me) OK aeyrton55/Zaizoun I agree to act as Escrow one more time for your trade. [/quote]Please make sure you complete the deal this time as I very busy and dont have any time to waste. Seller = Zaizoun Buyer = aeyrton55 Goods : 1.8BTC Payment method : Bank Transfer Price : Bitstamp +10% Escrow fee = 0.25% (Payable by aeyrton55)
The Escrow address can be verified in my main Escrow thread : www.bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=303281 (http://bitcointalk-topic303261.eu5.org)

I contacted MonBux to verify : Hello monbux , can you confirm Aeyrton55 sent you a message ? No. I have not sent any messages. Most likely an imposter trying to scam you.If yes please resend me your address I will exactly send 1.8btc Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=949220 Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1852027.msg18425973#msg18425973 Amount Scammed: 0BTC Payment Method: WU Proof of Payment: None Title: Re: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: Joel_Jantsen on April 09, 2017, 11:39:23 AM Just other newbie throwaway account made for scamming.Glad that you dodged a bullet there.All the legit bitcointalk links are highlighted in green,the one above isn't,makes it obvious it's shady.
I've tagged the account and also requested mods to ban the account as they're impersonating a trusted member of the forum. Title: Re: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: Chevas Regal on April 09, 2017, 12:06:47 PM whenever someone sends a link to you, just hover it and at the bottom you can find the place where it will redirect you upon clicking.
Avoid clicking links as SSL is even not secure as interpreted. try searching for sslkeylog in windows and you will understand it. 1.Hover over the link, don't click it. 2.You will find the place where it will take you, when clicked. https://s15.postimg.org/oxze7gat7/image.png Title: Re: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: hilariousandco on April 09, 2017, 12:10:44 PM Please report the message to me and he'll be banned. You can just report the PM in future and it'll get dealt with. Thanks.
Title: Re: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: Joel_Jantsen on April 09, 2017, 12:38:05 PM Please report the message to me and he'll be banned. You can just report the PM in future and it'll get dealt with. Thanks. I just reported the main post as the account is trying to impersonate trusted members of the forum and requested a ban.Does it work out like that ? Or the Pm has to come through the victim only ?Title: Re: Scam accusation for aeyrton55 Post by: hilariousandco on April 09, 2017, 01:25:56 PM Your report is what alerted me to this thread, but anyone could just create a thread accusing someone of sending them a phishing link without proof to try get them banned (not that I'm doubting this happened but I'd rather be sure). Reporting PMs directly is always the fastest and best way to go about it.
