Title: Using paxful for exchange Post by: Thecryptofan911 on July 23, 2019, 02:46:37 AM Stay away full of scammers and rippers and coin lockers. Sad to see such a great place to trade turn into a Nigerian and Kenyan scamfest. We should notify the SEC about their weak KYC infrastructure and complain. Worst moderated site since well this place lol congratulations bitcointalk forum were no longer the worst moderated webpage!

It would be crazy to create a flag against this user. He is not the scammer. Otherwise, we could create a scam accusation against theymos and create a flag, because a lot of members got scammed here. lol Title: Re: Using paxful for exchange Post by: hugeblack on July 27, 2019, 03:01:14 PM It would be crazy to create a flag against this user.

In general, it may have been an isolated case, but if the approach continues and many scams occur, report that platform legally.

They could be required by law to have a KYC process in place just to get operational permit / licenses. Paxful is full of scammers and it has been that way for a long time. I remember once I was trying to find an alternative solution against using Localbitcoins and I ended up on Paxful. Luckily I didn't do a single trade there, it was so fishy. Looking back, I was a newbie back then, it would have been easier for me to get ripped off. |
