It was that scotaloo fellow. He/you sent me a PM offering to refund a small amount of bitcoin he scammed me out of earlier with a different hacked username. If he can no longer see your PM's and wants to refund out of some kindness that he might have:

Yeah we got your PM. We will refund you soon don't worry I passed on the address. Delete your address from this post please. You weren't supposed to be scammed, the hacked paypal wouldn't work which is why we are refunding you.

We weren't scamming people. If we give you back your account will you promise not to delete the posts we made? We'd hate to see them deleted.

Don't worry about the negative feedback either it's only from trade, he will likely be leaving the community once he realizes all we know about him.

Well I was under the impression initially they were honest paypal funds, but at this point the BTC refund would be prefered. Whatever's been going on this is above my ability to handle or care about. I appreciate that you've decided to have not troubled me beyond this small situation, I guess sometimes it pays to be boring/unimportant.

Who? tkone?

It was hacked, taken back (they didn't change the recovery email) and hacked again. It was then given back for the lulz.

And yeah your sooo right, we're all a bluff </sarcasm>  ::)

(not an admission of guilt)

Na we gave it back to you because you're not threatening us or being bad and we told you we were sending you paypal funds but never sent them. We don't tell lies.

Well you sent it without a fee, so it hasn't been confirmed yet. I appreciate this gesture and will post confirmation again when I can confirm the coins haven't been double spent.

Damn sorry guy, lol like we're going to double-spend some change. If it doesn't confirm in a few hrs we will likely resend with a fee and you can keep both if it confirms eventually.

Well It's not like password strength matters that much anyway, we'd still need the db pw hashes to get in because you can only try 1 login every 90 seconds or something, would take years to brute it lol!

We had access to that account for weeks we just left it dormant.

No big deal.

Would double spending unconfirmed funds be worth it for the change? Not really. For the lulz though... It might be. I'm just happy to be able to go back to being one of those naive bitcoin users who hasn't been scammed on a PayPal trade yet.
