Bitcoin Forum

Localbitcoins.com is a fraid company,
their chat support are working to remove all negative comments to not get exposed.

Also scam allerts on Youtube will just not appear.
You can also recognize it on google playstore on Android: it have 5 stars but many people rate it with only 1 star, because they got scammed by Localbitcoins.

I am surprised by this. Is it the same as ever localbitcoins? I haven't used it but it used to be used quite a bit until they introduced KYC measures. In any case, I think you should provide more evidence apart from that one image, or see if someone comes to support what you are saying.

have you been scammed or had an issue with localbitcoins.com? if you are, just like what poker player suggests, provide proper evidence to support your claim. looking at the screenshot only one review claims that he/she was scammed which is really not uncommon with services. would you mind compiling more reviews about users being scammed? also, the other reviews in the screenshot have nothing to do with being scammed.

OP has put some random thing here without any valid proof. Don't know where they (localbitcoins) removing the negative comments, but every legit platform tries to resolve the problems whenever someone makes an accusation against them with valid proof. A review platform delete the complain of a user if he/she can't provide the valid proof of it.

Localbitcoins is a P2P buy sell platform (I believe you knows about it as you have used the service before). In that case, user won't be scammed directly by them. The KYC system may bring some complaints. They have launched thei android app just two months ago. Currently, the app have 3.7 ratings on play store. Most of the 1 start rating has been given by those user who faced difficulties while using the app, those are not related to scam. As example: screenshot 1 (https://i.imgur.com/k7xm15z.jpg), screenshot 2 (https://i.imgur.com/TQxCtm4.jpg)

BTW, app developer/creator can't delete the negative comments from play store, Trustpilot removes the negative feedback if the victims couldn't provide any proof. I don't know how the other review making platform works.

I can see the one-star rating pretty well so they are doing a bad job at removing those, oh, wait, they can't!


Scam allerts on youtube? What do you even mean?

Out of around 25 reviews, only 4 accuses them of being a scam and not mentioning one extra thing.
I can go and do the same review on any exchange just because I have a beef with somebody.

So, what's your PROOF of LocalBitcoins being a scam other than a screenshot with 3 reviews?

Don't blame a company this way unless you have enough evidence. What you have said here is random talk, you have not provided any evidence. In this forum you will find many traders who are using localbitcoins.com, and they are using it according to all kinds of rules. So you can share here exactly what kind of problem you are facing so that the forum members can understand why you are actually facing the problem.

I only clicked on this thread to see an example of a fake scam claim.
