His account is worth a lot less than $1,000.

Use an escrow (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276897.0) next time.

why did not you used escrow. he is not trusted

He's probably used to dealing on forums where identities and reputations are not disposable.

Yeah... my fault. He had positive feedback. Well, I sent an email to support telling them that my account was hacked, and he has to play to cashout the earnings, so his account will be locked.

I put a link to this thread in his selling/buying thread

uh, holy fuck man...  :-\

escrow, always use escrow thats reputable.

Are you sure it was him?

I had a fake shiqitbuddy message me today trying to buy BTC

Of course. I even talked to a friend who traded with him and it was the same skype. I have the PM in this forum too.

Can you provide screenshots of pm?

Sorry mate but you clearly didn't check things right. Did you fail to see the scam accusation posted by user lolilol on 2014-11-14 claiming he was scammed $800?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=384388

Also a quick search of "shipitbuddy" in the scam accusations section would have pointed you to this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=857018.0

Sorry to say but you have only yourself to blame for your loss. Red flags where visible.

I have never scammed anyone and my account was restored back, this guy is a scammer, beware trading with him.

If your accounts get hacked and they're used to scam somebody you're responsible for paying them back.

If you read closer that isn't what happened...shipitbuddy was sent $1000 in pokerstars in exchange for his BTC. The $1000 was tried to be reversed and pokerstars froze his account. He is out $1000 BTC but was able to get his PS restored back, don't know if he got the $1000 he was suppose to or PS took it out of his account.

Wow, I read ShipitBuddy's post as "My account was hacked" for some reason.

Yeah almost read " was restored back " as hacked as well :)





I dont see where he says that he reversed it and it got locked?

I think that these pictures do not prove anything, and have you ever heard of something known as escrow?
If you are too lazy to use an escrow, u deserved this.

Guys, they took the 1000$ out of my account and they restore it back ,  third time it happened in 2 months, so im not longer reciving $$ from not trusted members into Pokerstars, once more and they close my account :/.

yep not worth getting banned from PS, i wish i could still play there.

What happened to u in there?

nothing im in the US

I just wanted to chime in here since I have had some personal experience with Shipitbuddy.  His buddy "Verification" paid some money for the temporary use of a friend of mine's account with the stipulation it not be used to take out loans. I got a request for a very large loan in my PM and contacted the actual owner of the account via alternative means, and he verified that it was not him making the request.

More details are here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=875976.0;all

I then made a neutral post on the "Verification" account after I was pointed to it by the real owner and the user himself admitted it was him. He didn't like this so he left me a negative rating. As a result I replied with  my own negative, which was well deserved to begin with but I figured I would cut him a break. He didn't see it as a break and went on the offensive against me, which is why I decided to go with a full negative after this. After this his buddy "Shipitbuddy" made a series of demands and threats against me, after which I also marked his account.

He quickly became apologetic and changed his aggressive stance toward me once he realized I would not be intimidated by his threats. Because he seemed like he genuinely regretted his actions I removed the negative rating. Now I am reading this and I am thinking maybe I should have left it. While the evidence I am providing is mostly circumstantial, it does demonstrate his associates with scammers, and himself is willing to make threats to defend them. Frankly I wouldn't believe a word out of his mouth here. Be warned.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=902620.msg9959654#msg9959654

OK, this is a post from Verification towards Niann.


Niann claims that Verification was defended by shipitbuddy.
Then today this account is trying to exchange bitcoins for Skrill. Not only. He left a positive feedback to shipitbuddy.
Is it possible all three of these accounts belong to the same person?


What annoys me in this forum, is that you guys are really good at targeting "Potential Scammers", but you suck at targeting REAL ones.

Again - Im not saying he is a scammer for sure, but c'mon there are allegations for 1000's of dollars worth of scams and you don't even look into it? People get scammer tags for 5 bucks (eventually).

I am not an admin, so I cannot do anything about it, should anyone ask why I ask these questions.

Of course it is possible they are all the same person. Personally I try not to make assumptions I don't have any evidence of, and frankly I was only incidentally involved in this so I don't really have any stake in this situation, so I haven't looked into either of them very closely.

As far as this forum seeming to be obsessed with potential scammers while ignoring actual proven scammers, I agree 100%. There seems to be a rising pattern of "social justice warriors" who are looking to top off their ego and forum status by subjecting people to shaming and blame with little or no evidence. They often claim they are protecting the community, but this is a bit unrealistic and ineffectual. Additionally a lot of honest users get caught up in this ego driven witch hunt. Mob action is never historically a very good way to apply restorative justice.  Unfortunately the staff foster this kind of mentality by catering to these trolls, extortionists, and scammers operating under a guise of social justice.

Edit: I did also just now notice that the account "MTGObitcoin" was created the same day "verification" was burned.

TECSHARE you said it brother. I completely agree with all you wrote. The mob mentality, scammers disguised as honest traders. Sick really.

BTW: Tomatocage is really protecting this guy. Putting negative ratings to anyone he scammed. Fishy.

Personally I find Tomatocage shows a bit more restraint than the other users engaging in this "scambusting" type of behavior. In general I think he calls them right, but as I said the bar of what is considered sufficient evidence has been dropped dangerously low. I have notified Tomatocage of the information I have added. I am sure he has not had time to read it yet. We will see what he has to say about it.

As a bit of a side note, I would think adopting a standard of using neutrals for tagging suspicious users unless there is actual evidence of a scam, other than just an accusation, would be beneficial to the community in general.

OK if shipitbuddy really sent 1000$ worth of BTC - show the TX id. Otherwise he is a scammer.
Interestingly Tomatocage put negative comment on PokerBTC "deals with stolen funds".
They must be friends. Many people scammed by shipitbuddy have been tagged by Tomatocage, based on nothing but bullshit of the "he said" type. I am sure now that this forum has ZERO IP traceability towards it's users. Shipit has at least 2 accounts here and is constantly scamming people.

But he does it smart - he deals in small amounts with real BTC with trusted users, and scams newbies with 1000s. And everytime - he is acquitted of all acusations. Not only - he is extremely arrogant about it and that is why mods are tolerating him.

Besmurch his Trust as you did with the users he scammed Tomatocage. Otherwise you will confirm that you're friends with the guy, or that he uses your account! 3 people that legitimately acuse him, but are newbies, are tagged as scammers by you, just because he said so. He uses multiple accounts and never stop offering his "services". Doesn't it all sound strange?

PS: Con-man is short for CONFIDENCE man. A man with no confidence cannot be a con-man. That's why he acts better than thou. Not because he's innocent.

You'r friend Niann scammed my friend for over 600 usd and he run away , TECSHARE , if u don't understand what happened correctly is not my problem.
Second , those scam acussation's are from the same person , who tried to scam me instead of what u said, if u don't belive me , what happen sharp if i start to create random accounts and try to scam u and then leave some neg feedback.


I'm new to the forum but not new to the kind of scams that the internet has, and ur friend TECSHARE is a silly scammer.
And you sharp u need to learn somehow catch scammers, real ones.

BTW , i can't argume very well by writing, by any one who has any debt , we can have a skype conversation , I can show you eveything u need to prob idiots wrong , ALSO to prove Niann scammed my friend out of 600$.

IMO, I don't think it is fair to accuse Tomatocage of collusion. I would not believe that for a second. I think if he is guilty of anything it is making judgements a little too quickly without sufficient evidence (something easily corrected if need be). Please give him time to reply before you start throwing accusations around yourself.

I now officially acuse shipitbuddy, because he deleted my comment in his topic. Showing how he scammed another user in different topic with the same: QWERTY33 phrase.

Shipit - if you start making accounts acusing people for no reason - you will be too transparent and will be banned. You're smarter than that. Stop acting stupid. Show proof that you send PokerBTC 1000$ worth of BTC from your wallet. With signature. Then you accuse and destroy a person's trust rating. That's what makes you a scammer. And why did you delete my comment in your topic in currency exchange? I wasn't sure then but now I am 100% sure that you're not trustworthy.

I cant delete comments in my topic idiot, wow , ur surely another sick scammer. who has never traded , let's say , or u whoever of u guys that acuse me, how many btc u need or how many stars $ u need ? we trade it with an escrow chosse the amount i will do that, otherwise SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Regardless of what Niann did or didn't do, Verification admitted he tried to take a large unsecured loan out under someone else's name. That is criminal activity in itself and he was explicitly forbidden to do so by Niann. You not only associate with this admitted scammer, you also have made direct threats to me in an attempt to protect him/yourself. In my book this leaves your reputation wanting, and from reviewing your trust you seem to have a nice collection of other accusations against you as well. Niaan's actions are irrelevant to these circumstances.

Show the tx id from your wallet then sign your wallet with PGP or stop explaining yourself. Prove me wrong and I will apologize.
Otherwise - you're a scammer!

Which txt u want ?

I understand , but he has not take any loan , maybe u didn't understand the deal, he hasn't break anything ur friend scammed Verification out of 600$ usd and thats what happened. think what u want.

I received a PM from this silly scammer

That you deleted my comment. There is a selfmoderation option when you start a topic, so don't bullshit me. OK? I am angry at the mods. Not you in particular. Because they take your side with no evidence on your behalf. Every time.

This guy , doesn't understand how a thread work!!

He says I deleted a comment when I can't!! sillyy liar!!

Please someone ban this guy!!

He PMed me directly asking for a $9000 unsecured loan under somone else's name. I will think what I want, and I think he very clearly is a scammer.

And they HAVE EVIDENCE I DON'T HAVE TO SHOW IT IN PUBLIC ,  ALSO , THEY DIDNT DO ANYTHING WITH MY FRIEND WHO''S SCAMMED FOR 600$ BUCKS I JUST KEEP MY ASS SAFE CAN'T FOR MORE THAN 1 PERSON. THAT'S WHY HE LEAVE'S THE FORUM AND MTGOBITCOIN IS A MEMBER FROM ARGENTINA , WHO SPEAK SPANISH AS I DO , AND I'VE SELLED HIM A FEW BTC!! WHATS THE ISSUE IN HERE ?

That's perfect I  just don't think so he's my REAL LIFE FRIEND, no internet , not someone you don't know.
And I know how it works, there's many scammers multi accounting in here.

And I do not multi account  I just have this one. Please kindly remove that feedback from my trust.

You are in public demanding recourse for a supposed scam yet you refuse to prove it. You don't get to demand help from the community then tell it to fuck off when it asks for you to provide evidence. I have no reason to believe you and lots of reasons not to. I have already given you the benefit of the doubt once, you have burned your free fuck up cards with me. Really you should be less worried about my neutral and more worried about how deep of a negative hole your account will most likely be in once Tomatocage sees your reaction to a simple request for evidence.

This is what happened, he sent me 1000$ on Pokerstars alright ? Right after I got the money they froze my account.
I HAVE NOT SENT ANY BITCOIN , since MY ACCOUNT WAS FROZEN INSTANTLY.
Alright ?
It happened to my twice  in 2 months. Here it comes the email I recevied.

Hello ****,

> Thank you for your email.

> The funds you received from 'badbetman' were sent to you while that account was accessed without the account owner's permission. We advise that you should cease making further deals with the person who claimed to own the account of 'badbetman'. You should also cease making deals with strangers outside of PokerStars as you cannot know if the person you are dealing with is the real account owner. If you receive further transfers from hacked accounts in future it may result in the closure of your PokerStars account.

Ultimately, off-site deals are solely the responsibility of the parties involved and are not in any way condoned by PokerStars. Since you are making a monetary agreement with a complete stranger and should be aware of the risks involved. PokerStars will not accept the responsibility of this loss.

Pasted text isn't evidence of anything except that you have a keyboard. Post the transaction ID of the actual Bitcoin transaction of which you supposedly paid this user, otherwise all you have are accusations with zero evidence. In that case most people would be willing to believe you are the thief here, not him. There is no reason you should not be able to provide this.

edit: If you never sent any funds then what right do you have to claim you were scammed? All we have is your word that this was the chain of events, and your word is increasingly becoming worth less with every statement you make. It seems to me the more likely chain of events was that he paid you, you refused to pay him and stopped replying, then he charged back his transfer to you as a result.

OK. He doesn't even know what a tx id is. Now that's a sure sign that he is a scammer. And has no Idea how to sign a message with his wallet.

If you read carefully, he is claiming that his account was suspended instantly after the transfer, therefore he never sent any BTC to the OP. IMO, this doesn't make any sense UNLESS he tried to rip off the OP and then the OP quickly charged it back after Shipitbuddy stopped replying. If it really was an attempt to scam shipitbuddy with a stolen account, chances are it wouldn't be charged back for at least minutes, if not hours or days once the real owner discovered the missing funds. It makes ZERO SENSE for a scammer to charge back funds BEFORE he receives the Bitcoin payment, because it involves risking a large amount of money just to get the money that was risked back.

I didnt claim i werent scammed!!! i didnt sent any feedback saying i was scammed, THE ACCOUNT WAS SHUTDOWN instantly after transfer I could sent you screenshots instead of copy paste emails. And it wasnt the first time someone do this, actually that guy was not the real account owner , do u think pokerstars is a poor site ?.


All i want is your feedback to be removed, ask for anything else and ill show it.

Why those guys who leave me feedback never came online again ? Of course they have multiple account's , theodor the one who says i got an alt , is a proven scammer , a real one, csharp11 has scam acussations real ones. I've proved myself with the mods i'm not such a scammer, TECSHARE , it's ok what u do , but ur wrong buddy. very very wrong TWICE in less than 3 months. Please stop. If u don't want to remove that feedback just , make it something like ESCROW IS A MUST but don't accuse me of having alts. Thanks.

I am sure he tried to scam him the OP, not sending, or replying for hours. That definitely doesn't make the OP a scammer. He just wanted his stolen money back. And yet it was the OP who got the "Deals with stolen funds" comment. Thats rubbish.

I'm gonna email Pokerstars right now , and have to proof for you , is that Ok ?

No it's not. We don't care about emails. Fact is - you got sent the pokerstars USD and did not send bitcoin. Stop trying to scam your way through this. You look even guiltier.

I have no reason to believe you. None of your story makes sense. Furthermore your irrational rage filled reply to a request for evidence doesn't make you appear any more innocent.

Wow , however guys. Gonna stop talking with u both if u no need of evidence. I'm just gonna leave this for months till this calm down , u sharp UR A FUCKING SCAMMER AND UR TRUST PROVE IT ALL, and u TEC is ok u can think whatever u want. But as i said i prove u wrong and u still in ur position. Same as what happened with my friend who's red trusted by u and cage. HAve a nice day.

You haven't proved anything, only made counter-accusations. Additionally Verification ADMITTED he tried to take a loan out under some one else's name. How much more proof can you get?

Said the guy with 1000s of dollars worth of scam accusations. :D Get real, bro.

And could you explain this if you please:


Here is what your posts look like in Currerncy Exchange:


Pretty similar, don't you think?
Are all of the three: shipitbuddy, MTGObitcoin and Verification your accounts?

Look , this is easier about my friend  if he was looking to scam Niann would change passwords and emails  if u DON'T UNDERSTAND A SIMPLE THING is not my problem also is not MY MONEY so I don't need to keep talking about it I KNOW U WRONG AND I KNOW NIANN HAS 600$ BUCKS WHO STOLE FROM MY FRIEND and there's nothing that can prove it wrong sense they have a " take no loans "  it wasnt " do not ask for loans " he was seeing the force of the account since it was old and etc, this stop here.

And regarding my transactions , I tell you again , what do u need ? Ill email stars and ask for the time of the transaction and when it was shot down. And then what else u need ? You'r pointless for me really , anyway I belive ur a smart person who understand.

Verification is not my account , is a friend one.

MTGOBITCOIN I can get into the account since it from a friend in Argentina, and since we traded we record the transaction for a few btc into the forum. AND YES I GOT ACCESS TO THAT ACCOUNT.

And shiptitbuddy is clearly my account.

I will insert a few images but I don't know how to do it , also  I will do that from MTGObitcoin account.
So I can show u guys a few things regarding my red trust from uknown members.

OK. You got my respect for admitting that. So now we know.

It's not everyone who have Positive feedback a good guy and fully trusted mate . He maybe traded for 50$ and got that positive feedback , then when the opportinity came he scammed you for 1000 USD .
Something for sure is that one of you is lying of course , you say he scammed you , and he say he didn't . just accusations and this is what this section refer to .
whoever had an issue ...next time make sure to use Escrow , he is a list : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0

Hey mad, have you read the full thread, no of course you haven't please c'mon whats up in here. He's a proven scammer what'r u talking about ?
