Title: Warning about member iBitcoin+ He's done it again

WARNING ABOUT IBITCOIN+

I posted a topic yesterday looking to buy bitcoins for skrill.

I received a message from iBitcoin+  offering to trade with me. We went through the payment process and then he decided to refuse my bitcoins unless I sent a copy of my photo i.d. Unforntunately i had no means of uploading a copy for him, if he had said at the start that he needed it I wouldn't have sent him my money!

The second last message I received from him was that I should have had my refund and then the last message was that it was his mistake and he promised to refund me in the morning.

Now when I see he is online I email him and straight away he appears offline.

As a newbie I should have listened when I saw comments saying trust no-one.

Hopefully he will prove me wrong or if anyone knows of a way that I can get my money back I would appreciate any help.

Chargeback the payment. He was asking for your ID so that if you chargedback he could say but I know the person and provide them your ID.

You won't get your BTC. Only option here is chargeback the payment or move on.

if only bigbitz could chargeback on you
Cool story. The whole "You're kingofsports" is pretty old. But feel free to keep trolling. Not kingofsports but I do enjoy the amusement of people spending their life devoted to trolling my posts with that crap.

How do I go about doing a chargeback? Still a complete noob.

Thanks for the help.

Not familar with skrill as I'm a US resident. Call them by support phone number and tell them you were scammed and explain the situation and the provide the specific payment #. That would be a start.

UPDATE.

Had a new email from iBitcoin+. He is now saying he will send me my BTC as soon as I confirm my identity, this is after he already said he was going to refund me. Then he asks where about in the UK i live.

I'm not keen on handing out too much personal details especially to someone who seems to be trying to scam me.

It seems this guy, iBitcoin+, has struck again. Myself, mojacho and mirador17 have now been scammed.

Please be very carefull people.

He uses  the email-markwilliams07@gmail.com,
and asked for a copy of photo id to be sent to-digitalcurrencystore@gmail.com.

If either of these emails appear be very careful.
