Title: JawsofLife Post by: Nibblyp on December 20, 2017, 07:55:51 PM What happened::
Loaned JawsOfLife $20 in bitcoin for a "birthday loan", after sending it, he locked the thread, told others he had paid when he hadnt, and said again he'd paid it in a second loan thread. Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1082014 Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2576030.0 (original loan thread) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2600904.0 (second thread, seperate loan where its shown he said he'd paid when he hadnt.) Amount Scammed: 0.0018 ( $20 + $10 interest) Payment Method: BTC Proof of Payment: https://blockchain.info/address/1DJMuKMp4sTjpWiSSMpb92XzqUTfG835ac (do i need more here?) PM/Chat Logs: Thanks so much for the help. It does mean a lot. And of course I'll honor the repayment. This is my address : 1DJMuKMp4sTjpWiSSMpb92XzqUTfG835ac Leave your return address Hey, I'm having some issues. I am trying to withdraw my coins off my gaming site to return the payment but there is a minimum withdraw limit and I'm short 11$ lol Withdraw takes only 2-3hrs. Would you send me the 11 so we can get squared away. I'll send you back 40$ for the inconvenience. Okay, I'm requesting another loan I guess to pay off this one lol Additional Notes: His account has since been transferred to another person, the person holding the account now is not responsible for repayment.

Title: Re: JawsofLife Post by: magneto on December 21, 2017, 02:46:04 AM Come on guys... Not that hard to spot this one. He literally was acting all defensive about it and he flat out lied about him sending repayment to OP, yet apparently this wasn't enough evidence for Parodium to stay away from that scammer?
I understand that y'all think that $11 isn't that much to lose, but please, please, please. Take this as a lesson. If they think that it's so easy to scam then they'll be back next time to scam some more people, just with a different account. It's not always whether you can take the risk or not. If it is an obvious scammer would you donate money to him? Title: Re: JawsofLife Post by: Nibblyp on December 21, 2017, 05:08:28 AM I've stated my reasons as to why i "dontated", and again, I agree it was a bad idea.

Oh well, it's only $11, he must have been in a desperate situation to scam for so little. |
