You can login , check BTC, change password and attach and verify to your email this wallet 3. You send me the ltc 4. i release you the transfer keys so you can send BTC to your personal wallet that way block chain role is as escrow Is this possible?

Title: Re: Is this message legit? Post by: empoweoqwj on February 01, 2014, 03:38:52 AM No, I wouldn't touch that. It sounds like the start of a nightmare. Just use a trading site to trade coins.

Title: Re: Is this message legit? Post by: texaschainsaw54 on February 01, 2014, 08:36:25 AM that has scam all over it, I would stay away or ask for proof? Where did you get that offer?
Title: Re: Is this message legit? Post by: cryptopaths on February 01, 2014, 08:48:31 AM This looks like it could be a scam and even if it's not it looks like an extremely convoluted method for what't in fact a simple process. If you really don't know how to exchange crypto currencies for eachother I suggest using one of the official guides on the forums.

Post by: Lethn on February 01, 2014, 09:14:45 AM It looks a lot like a scam or some kind of keylogger attempt to me, especially if they're trying to keep quiet about it through PM, don't ever trust people who try to do 'business' with you by telling you to go to a shifty looking website and entering in your details.

Have you checked with blockchain to see if this acceptable? Maybe they would like to know of people trying to use their service inappropriately? Title: Re: Is this message legit?
