Title: New information about the company Bitcoin Stockers Ltd aka Sellusbitcoin.com
Post by: tkoborny on April 26, 2014, 11:59:49 AM
I posted the scam warning earlier but wanted to post what I've learned recently.  The website Sellusbitcoin.com is operated by a company named Bitcoin Stockers Ltd.  What they are doing is using stolen account information to purchase the bitcoin and claim they will transfer your money using Paypal, Bank transfer, Western Union or Money Gram. Once the legitimate owner of the account they used realizes what has happened and the charges are reversed, Bitcoin Stockers, Ltd claims the issue is with the financial institution and that they haven't received any funds back. They claim there is nothing they can do and suggest that you deal with the financial institution directly to correct the error and you will receive no further contact from them no matter how many emails you send.  My transaction was done through paypal and was reversed just days after the initial btc transfer.  The wallet address where I transferred the btc to using my Coinbase account is listed on their website, I made sure I took a screen shot so if they changed the address I would still have the proof.  I realize I won't ever get paid for the btc I transferred to them but feel an obligation to warn others.  I'm not sure how to post pictures on this site but I do have all the information to back up my claims and if you msg me I can provide that for you.

Confirming the OP's statement.  Unprofessional is not the right term for this group.  Scam is.  I may be out 0.05 BTC for this but at least I can try to save others from it.
