Want quick .1 microloan for sealswithclubs. Was told to come on here to look for loan.

I could do this. When, and how much will you be paying back?

Will payback .12 and payback Friday.

I'll do it, as long as you post in my rep thread.  .1 BTC for .12 BTC this friday
BTC address?

Sure will post. Address is 1K9zGcWV1nzFe12CNFxWRDwBYbjomH5Nxq

Payback address is, 1CbKXzbw8aLvhuK2crJDH32CojjJzuNfxb

Please confirm, when BTC has been accepted

Uh... is that your sock or something?

No collateral
no rep
new account
straight to lending forum

How is this going to work?

Got BTC about 20 minutes ago. TY so much.

There is the Joey signature, the "TY so much". You will probably never see this loaned amount again. Guy in seals talks just like he would too.

If the guy wants to get a scammer tag, for $10, then, so be it. I need the rep, I considered it to be an acceptable risk.

Joey already has the scammer tag. This is obviously one of his alts. You will never see that money again. :(

You forget that accounts can be quickly made. How many 5 post accounts are you willing to spend $10 on to get them scammer-tagged? No matter your answer, the number of 5 post accounts looking to scam will be higher.

I wish you the best, but chances are your $ is gone. Do some research, this guy has been begging for loans on SwC for days now

Just so the lender knows, he currently has your BTC + your interest in chips on SwC. We tried to get him to pay it back early, but is refusing.

Gotta admire his motivation...

Joey sure goes through a lot of trouble to scam people for $10

That sounds so unlikely.
 
Fact 1 : There is a 19 pages thread about this joey that keeps being bumped, which is so compelling once you begin reading it, you're sucked down till the end.
Fact 2 : You replied to this loan donation request pretty quickly, so you're obviously hanging around the lending sub, and thus would probably have clicked on a 19 pages thread.
Fact 3 : A fair share of people who try building up reputation through trades and loans are doing so to pull a bigger scam off.  ;)

If this guy ends up scamming you, which he will, I'm giving you negative feedback for enabling these assholes.

I <3 TC

lol

I agree with this. Quite honestly, Hydroponica's quest to get legitimacy and "reputation" at any cost has only made him more suspicious in my eyes. He uses the fact that he runs some altcoins as a way to prove his legitimacy too. ::) I would not be surprised at all if he was hoping to perpetuate a larger scam sometime in the future.

Man, you guys are just chomping at the bit, to label everyone as a scammer ::)
I am simply trying to expand my mining operation. Once I have a good flow of BTC, I plan to start investing, and building collateral.
With this guy, I believed he was new, and $10 seemed like such a insignifcant ammount, I took the risk to help the guy out. I didn't make the connection between him, and Joey, until someone else pointed out the TY, and I went looking for his thread.
You people need to relax, not EVERYONE is out to scam you, some people legit want to get more into Crypto Currency, quickly. If I was asking to borrow BTC to pay bills, or stupid shit like that, then yeah, I'd be worried, but I have a career, thanks, my bills are already paid.
I merely try to point out, that I have more to lose, than some fag, with a gambling adiction and his gimped mother.

Giving me negative trust, or labeling me a scammer, is an abuse of the system. I haven't scammed anyone, nor do I ever intend to.

I was only half serious, but JFC dude, obvious scammer is obvious. Not even sure why you'd send funds to him.

tbh, its my first loan given out here, I usually do loans on BTCJam. I thought I was playing it forward, now I realize, it was a retarded thing to do, I should have researched better, looked for rep, ect. Won't happen again

Just thought I'd point this out: before you even see the trademark TY, he always says "Was told to come on here to look for loan". He says the same thing on the thread where he's trying to sell joey debt.

Joey(if OP is one of your alts), can you please confirm that this is one of your alt accounts, and that you have scammed Hydro? You freely admit your scamming nature in other threads, specifically this one https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=242494.0;topicseen

I'm fairly certain I am getting ripped off. Yep, I'm an idiot. And, to make matters worse, I've got everyone and their dog, coming out of the woodworks, PM'ing me for a loan ::)

>.< Probably just all of Joey's alt accounts :D Sorry you got worked over Hydro! Live and learn...

Haha, that made me laugh. I guess people will think you will fall for something like that twice. Stick to lending to people who will provide collateral or find someone with a high amount of reputation. 

I checked out the silkroad forum some time ago (was never active on silkroad but just wanted to read in the forums). One guy was asking for 0.4 BTC (completly anonymous) 0.4 BTC was like 15$ back then. Because i had mined a lot of coins back then, i gave him the 0.4 to help him out, and did not think that i will get it back ever. After aprox. 1 Week i got 0.74 back! Somehow my faith in humanity was restored that day. I mean he could have easily just taken the BTC, he had 1 post in the forum and just registered. And it was via TOR!.
Maybe i shoudl just checkout that old transaction, get his BTC sending address, check if it is still used via blockchain and send him the diff 0.74-0.4 in a random act of kidness. I think he somehow deserves a medal!

Back to topic, i guess the chance is somehow 50:50 that you get your money back.

I am not that Joey person and I did not rip you off.

I think the scammer posted from the wrong account.

That's one of his hobbies, yeah.
But you have to understand, handling that many alts is not that trivial.

OMFG LMFAO!!!! THIS IS HILARIOUS!!! CAUGHT IN THE ACT!!!

I hope you die of aids

Jokes on you Hydro, he already is in the process!

I agree with this. These continual enablers are part of the problem.

Yes, just like when a woman dresses all slutty, and gets raped, it's her fault, right?  ::)

Sorry to ruin everyone's surprise but Colliefan is Joey. He is talking in seals now about how hes going to buy $10 worth of BTC from coinbase then wait 30 days and buy 50 BTC instantly. How pathetic of a person is he, the low goes lower every day.

dude.  i'm beginning to doubt your decision making in lending.  i've given you 1.6 btc loan and, in turn, you lent a guy with no reputation and no collateral for 0.1 btc.  i've seen you posting in lending thread so its quite hard to believe that you don't know this joey the scammer guy.  i still have faith that you won't become another joey and scam me off with the 1.6 btc loan.  the first loan i've given here was also 0.1 btc, to a guy named bennett616 (who at that time had around >500 posts), and the 0.1 btc didn't returned.  be wise, learn to balance risk, greed, and personal capacity.  regards

Equivocating rape and a stupid loan decision really shows your lack of grasp on reality.  ::) ::)

Dude, I did not lend to Joey, I inadvertently lent to one of his alt accounts. I thought I was helping a noob, get into Crypto. I made a mistake. This community is in a really sad state, in the way they are crucifying me, for making a fucking mistake.

The reality is, you are blaming the victim. Its the same principle

Try again. I am blaming greed. Greed to make a buck and greed to buy rep. NOT the same.

You know what? In joey's original scheme, 2 different people, lent hime BTC, in the same thread, amounting to alomst $100, and the community didn't jump all over the lenders ass. I lent a guy $10, to be nice, so, get off my back.

Really? You didn't do it to buy some rep?  ::)

"Don't drink the KoolAid"   

This IS joey, we didn't know that joey was a scammer back then. We know now, man, it seemed to be pretty obvious that this was joey, obviously not.

Hi, Hydro, I am a newbie trying to get into crypto. Can you help me out bud?

Lolno, get the fuck out.

Also:

I was thinking more along this line: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdpTcvSn8HQ

4 posts and you already have the scammer tag? You're a professional.

This community is a lot like an MMO. The people who have been playing for years, get mad at the newer guys, for not automatically knowing everything there is to know, about it.

Are you the new guy? You have over 2000 posts...

New to this aspect. I'm pretty knowledgeable in the Alt Coin area, and coin developement. This area is new to me. Again, castrated for not knowing EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING ::)

You didn't have to know everything to see an obvious scam. Even if you didn't know it was joey, the post was very suspicious.

Plus, I think it has to do with you being an enabler and more that you did a quick loan for rep. That is not looked kindly upon.

Listen, there was a full 2 hours, from his post, until I sent the BTC. Noone made the connection, until after, when he ended it the same way he always does ::) Hind sight is always 20/20. You people need to relax.

You people should be mad, that these people are allowed to try again. Why are they given a tag, instead of being IP banned, and lessening the chance that these people will be able to create a new account, and try again?

Because even if he got IP banned he can just come back with a new IP. And there are more scammers than just Joey. In fact, Joey's one of the most obvious ones.

Of course, if people refused to do transactions with untrusted members except through escrow, there would be no problems. Instead it's people desperate for a few extra bucks and some rep that allow scams to continue.

Not so sure if Joey is smart enough to arrange a different IP ^^

Me and my son have unlimited IP's We subscribe to Hidemyip.

Yes man, its all my fault. If they stopped getting money, they would stop trying. Because, obviously, they have much more important things going on in life, then trying to scam people out of $10. I made a mistake, I learned. Move on, and stop being such a dick about it.
You ban one IP, they come back, you ban another, and another. Even HidemyIP, does not have unlimited number of IP's, it has a list of proxy servers. Infact, since 99% of these scammer, probably use HideMyIP, once all the proxies are banned, your killing most of them off

LOFUCKINGL HIS MORBIDLY OBESE MOM IS IN ON THE SCAMMING TOO!!!!!

They should just go be a fucked up cam couple and really make this shit SICK.

I'd pay .10 BTC JUST to see some FUCKED UP SHIT like that.

Then make a .GIF to post in every single one of their scammer 'i was told to come here to look for a loan' requests.

Oh Hai Gaiz. I just found their family portrait.

I wasn't even going to say anything more but you double posted and it went to the top of my unread.

And couldn't they use TorBrower?

Everyone, cut Hydro some slack. He fucked up. That's it. If he was looking to scam or make Joey look good or some stupid shit you guys are accusing him of, i'm sure it would have involved a lot more BTC and cleverness. You all are assholes for molesting his bitcointalk.org stature. So he didn't read the fine print. I bet your ass you didn't read the fine print when you installed your latest pc or phone application either. So go jam one out in the bathroom and relax.
