Yes I know.. but I do need the paypal soon. I will check your credentials also. It's paypal so you will be 100% be sending first and i can provide proof of ownership of coins. I'm looking for the best rate possible. Send a pm on rates and such. Thanks.

FYI.. at any time you decide to chargeback after you receive the coins  I will go after you to the fullest extent.

I really hope you don't get scammed because of charge backs, are you sure you can't do a bank transfer and then deposit money into paypal? People are going to see this and see a opportunity to scam...if you can't do what I mentioned, I wish you the best of luck.

What I wanted to do is buy some things off of ebay.. and I tried to deposit with bank and my bank wont do it.. then i bought a moneypak from a user here.. and paypal asked for my social and all the other info and they declined me. Weird but it's cool. I want to be perfectly safe so lets hope so!

I have PM'd you.

For clarity though - I will not send PayPal first.

PayPal Gift is not subject to normal chargeback technique. You *must* tell PayPal your account has been compromised and you did not authorise any payment at which point they will, most likely, close the account etc.

I use a verified PPUSD account.

FYI: Someone recently scammed me using PayPal and I was unable to do a chargeback unless I basically lied to PayPal and said the above. I didn't.

I had partially the exact scenario happen to me. Localbitcoins member tried to rip me big time by sending me fraudulent funds. Luckily.. i disputed with localbitcoins and got my money back.. It put my account in limbo for 2 months smh

Also: I responded to your message

i can buy 2 btc tonight or tomorrow
i wont send you first

pm me if you agree
or i going to buy on coinbase

I noticed that coinbase only allow to buy bitcoins only for US customers, isn't ?

if you have a us card you can buy

PM the ebay user and ask them if they'll accept bitcoins.

lol sure thats safer than use ebay

Thanks for the advice. The seller doesn't even know what BTC is.. SO its useless.. I may see if i can transfer it to bank and then buy locl with cash.. safest method I know

Go to eBay. Buy eBay gift card. Load into PayPal. Easy ;)

how would I be able to buy a ebay gift card with btc.. Yeah I think you're confused.

im still buying 2btc, if you want to send first or escrow

if you are paying for escrow I will definitely take it. It has to be John K only.

Also...it has been known for people to make a fake PayPal account, receive funds then spend quick, and then just never log back into PayPal.  PayPal won't ask for info right away...a fake name, email, and spend received money. PayPal sucks.

First, tell me how much do you want for 2btc

You wouldnt. But your own words were:

 I tried to load my bank account and it wouldn't work. Which implies you have the money on bank account and would have used it. So, its as easy as using your debit card online and buying eBay gift card. Instant, and no chance to get scammed. Case closed. Sounds scammy if that's not reasonable.

Buyer beware. Definitely use escrow. Do not send PayPal until you have coins, or john k has coins.

I do not own a debit card. I have a savings account and a ATM card. SO thats why i said that. I will definitely sell you 2btc with the use of escrow also. How am i scamming again? I have had this paypal + ebay account for 10+ years. Never a problem with either. I'm not sure where you are getting at. I'm the one who has the btc. So how am i scamming someone if I am taking the paypal. Especially with use of escrow

ok, i dont care if you are scammer or not
as long i got BTC first or john does, its fine

how much do you want? im leaving very soon
maybe we can do it tomorrow

mtgox rate. no more or less.

we might have a deal tomorrow
got to go now

Just saying to use escrow. Not saying you are scamming. I know a lot about PayPal. I may or may bot have worked in the past for them. I know its really easy to make a fake PayPal account as they do no checks. If you have yours for 10 years and verified, that's good. Weird no bank or card attached tonit after that long. Never bought anything in 10 years?

bank is azttached but I have changed since then and for some reason when they send the trial deposits my bank never gets them.. and they have the correct info. All I was going to do was purchase on ebay a few (not bitcoin related) items. I always will use escrow because i've been ripped 2 times already.
Okay we can  deal tomorrow!

Syns avatar is so hot

 :P :P :P

HELP...Anyone out there in the forums can help.

Juneteenth and i just agreed that i purchase 4.0 btc for US$425.
He sent me a paypal request reuesting payment.
i sent him the money.
he now claims his account got limited and he feels scammed - he hasnt sent anything and is not out of pocket.
i got no $$ and no BTC.
Does anyone have any experience with this paypal limitation thingy???
please help.

If he sent you a Payment Request I assume you did not respond with a GIFT payment?

If that is true then you should be in a position to lodge a chargeback request with PayPal. However, if you sent GIFT, consider the money gone unless you want to tell PayPal you're account was compromised and you did not authorize this funding.

why did you not use Escrow when he offered it also?

the payment request didn't offer me any choices - just 'pay now'. which i did.

i dont see how that would result in a limitation to his account. Is this a correct thing that can happen with paypal?
his screen shot to me says he needs to go through some steps to take away limitation - if he does this, wil transaction settle ok.

i am not interested in scamming anybody. i sent my $425 in good faith. a transaction for a lower amount went through smoothly yesterday??

stressing now - thats alot for me to lose :(

oh and regarding using the escrow... i figured since he is offering it then he must be above board, i know i am.

what is going on?... surely there is still good left in people out there. my 1st baby  son was born a few days ago, and in readiness for that, i wanted to have some btc for him as a gift when he was born, i agreed to buy 2.0 btc off Gumtree and duly deposisted $200 into the guys Australian Westpac bank account a couple of weeks ago. He didnt send the btc, wouldnt offer the transaction id or anything. so now i have to lodge a police complaint.

And now this.. really. what gives. And yes, i am trusting, but id rather be that than than the opposite.
oh bother :(

So rather than hang around to resolve this, Juneteenth has gone offline.
It looks like i have been taken again :(

buyers please be aware.

Jesus Christ, did you NOT READ MY POSTS?!?!

If you paid by invoice, file a chargeback for non receipt of goods. And learn to pay attention to what people post in threads.

Also, what was his PayPal email that you sent to? And if you have the screenshot still, send that also, via pm of you like. We can probably get your money back. But you need to be wayyyyy more careful.

lessoned learned. i hope i get my money back.

pm'd you screenshots.
Thank you heaps

That's sad, to make everything sure buy bitcoins by bank transfer to popular exchangers like mtgox or bitfinex

well, my friend

thats why i waited for a day lol

Since i have talked to paypal and they alerted me this person "goose20" was figured out to be sending for ecurrency (which paypal does not support) he has to request his money back by calling paypal.. if he truly owns this account. I have done more verification and its not going to help. So in all naturality.. I probably lost my account because of him. I never passed up escrow.. considering i always said (I would take escrow john k only) and he was in a rush. I am locking this thread because of this.. i will not take anyones paypal.. and will always use escrow (even though escrow would have not prevented this)
