I'm just taking a wild guess, but I'm going to say this person you sent BTC to registered less than a month ago. How far of am I?

Tell the escrow to send you back your money.

Too bad you didn't do a little more research on him.

Edit the thread title to include his name, (eg. SCAMMER : ) post a negative trust rating and take this as a lesson learned.

Always use escrow.

I didn't even realize you could click on the trust and it shows more. I thought the +/- would reflect better. I've tried to give a negative rating and it keeps showing up as trusted even though I'm clicking the check box.

But yeah lesson learned. A few of those negatives showed up the day/after I traded with him so I don't know how much of a difference that would of made. I just looked at he was a full member and older than a month. But yeah lesson learned...I've lost a lot more that 30 bucks on worse gambles in my life x.O

Believing there is good out there, isn't gambling, its one of life's obligations. ;)
