Title: [be aware][confirmed] scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: rex on May 10, 2013, 12:37:56 PM After I send my coins to them, they just disappeared.
[update]They have already appeared on other threads, but none of them payed me until now. Both of them are scammers, confirmed. DO NOT TRADE WITH THEM I wish I have read this post first: [Beware of new members with alt coin trades. Always escrow.] First & second trade on bitcointalk. Feels really upset. :( :( :( Title: Re: [be aware]potential scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: Trading on May 10, 2013, 02:20:44 PM Be prepare for the worst.
If they don't pay you, open threads against each one of them with their name in the subject here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 Post your transaction id with a link to blockchain.info or http://www.cryptocoinexplorer.com/ and a scan of a PM where each one indicates you his address to where you sent the money.

Title: Re: [be aware]potential scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: CouragedOne on May 10, 2013, 03:21:54 PM OldSport sent me a message for my sale of an Iphone On here in the Goods thread. He told me I didnt need to use escrow because he has great feedback but i never saw any feedback.

He told me I didnt need to use escrow because he has great feedback but i never saw any feedback. I never said that. Post some image proof. OP I went offline because you were taking forever to send the bitcoins. I'm away from my computer. If it says I'm online it's because I am on my phone.

OP I went offline because you were taking forever to send the bitcoins. I'm away from my computer. If it says I'm online it's because I am on my phone. you haven't send me the YAC yet. the Bitcoin I sent to you now is confirmed 46 times: https://blockchain.info/tx/3816f40c21fcbab2c63fce34830f36bc5e5ce395a79c4a33a1ba5632cebad5ce Please send me the YAC as soon as possible. I'll fire a scammer post within 24 hours if I can't receive the YAC from you Title: Re: [be aware]potential scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: Trading on May 10, 2013, 05:41:25 PM It's not very important if he said that or not: the important is if he made a deal with the OP, received or not money from the Op and if he paid him his part on the deal. It's strange that he had time to answer you, but not to deny the charges of the OP and/or present evidence of his payment.

Well, it turns out that indeed both are the worst cases. The two showed up in the forum, but still I haven't got anything payed, and got no pm from any of them. What a lesson ! Title: Re: [be aware]potential scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: rex on May 10, 2013, 08:24:24 PM BEWARE I also did sell some btc to Oldsport.

Please donate me some ... Are u kidding me? I learned such a poor lesson with so expensive fees, you should donate me some. Title: Re: [be aware][confirmed] scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: Wardrick on May 10, 2013, 08:32:49 PM This guy is a scammer haha, I knew this from when he messaged me ages ago. There was just no proof because he never scammed because I'm not stupid enough to fall for something like that.
He wanted to buy my $800 in Walmart Gc for a BTC-e code, Idk how they works but he was probably going to give me a used or fake code after I gave him the cards, or else he would of just cashed it and sent me the amount, but he didn't because then there would be a paper trail. He also refused to use Escrow, but that was a last resort. He also bought $800 in Walmart GC off someone else and didn't pay them because he said they were fraudulent. My guess was that was just an excuse because there is no way to tell and the other guy had zero reputation.

Title: Re: [be aware][confirmed] scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: louong on May 11, 2013, 05:10:34 PM Also keep in mind that if someone refers to a #bitcoin-otc WOT rating, make sure you have them actually log into #bitcoin-otc, ident them and PM you so you know it's really them.
Title: Re: [be aware][confirmed] scammers: Oldsport and AlternativeCypt Post by: Wardrick on May 12, 2013, 03:06:54 PM I honestly wouldn't recommend trading with anyone (going first) unless they have at least a couple large trades under there belt, numerous small trades, or have been here for a year+. Always use Escrow, I've been able to get all my trades Escrow'ed within hours of setting up the Escrow.
