Title: Banned LBC account, identity theft
Post by: mzforfree on June 20, 2017, 02:31:11 AM
So recently my wallet along with my passport was stolen, I've made tons of tickets and got a little upset so I told them to speak to my lawyer referring the claims i made against identity fraud (including witnesses in workplace and an advance my boss gave me BECAUSE of said fraud)..

since the user: https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/boody11096/

was the the seller of the person who stole my identity (may even be him may not be) he posted fraud against me since I was the one who put the fraud claim on my wellsfargo account and whoever had passport used it to purchase btw. (he had access to everything). then apparently hacked my gmail/paypal accounts and used it to pay for btc. I immediately saw what was happening and cancelled my card. The only legit payments I've made are all with cash, verified by bank and using another temp license I had before my old one was stupid. I have proof of all of this from the claims to wellsfargo, doctor's office visit and even an advance from my employer during that time as well as multiple witnesses who saw the turmoil this put on my life.

I told LBC to confirm via the bank, doctor's offices, etc but all i got was the same amount: before we proceed further we need need your picture id, selfie, blah blah.

WTF is that going to prove without them calling the bank?

Pay the extra money to fast track a replacement passport and give local bitcoins scans of that. You can normally get a replacement within a day if you are prepared to pay extra and go to the office.

If you are 100 percent sure its the localbitcoins user who's profile you posted online, the right thing to first is lodge a complain with the police of your country. If the user is same from your country, then it will be easier for the cops to trace him. If however you are not 100% sute it was he, would suggest to delete the profile before someone quotes it so that you are not held responsible for any defamation suit.

He seems to be having good feedback there, with a Feedback score of 100%. Also, the account was created more than three months ago. Are you just noticing it now? Anyway, it won't be a bad idea to move this thread to the legal section of the forum:
