I hate to give future scammers info on how to scam better, but that definitely looks suspicious. I have pointed him to this thread - let's read what he has to say. Look at the References. They don't seem to lead to or prove anything. Perhaps these 100+ BTC risked Trust shills should get some red as well. Title: Re: Scam attempt sending fake escrow details ONCF Post by: warningsigns on September 16, 2017, 11:22:02 AM Lesson: Always check and confirm escrow instructions with the escrow provider directly. Never rely on copy/paste and quoted instructions provided by anyone you transact with. This generally applies to all escrow trades, not just to this particular scam accusation and I hope users here will learn from these scam attempts (luckily it didn't go beyond a mere attempt).
And that's good due diligence work there. Checking the trust and trade history and making an intelligent decision about it. Sensing something amiss or fake was a good move there. The scammer must be unhappy to see things aren't working out in his favour. No coins and now a ruined trust rating. Not a profitable weekend for him.

Most of the positive feedback is from accounts with ZERO posts and created/last login the same day. Looks (obviously) fake to me as well. Title: Re: Scam attempt sending fake escrow details ONCF Post by: zazarb on September 16, 2017, 02:10:37 PM Fake quote, I am not involved in this deal,
nobody did not appeal to me for escrow. OP you should always ask sign Escrow address . Title: Re: Scam attempt sending fake escrow details ONCF u=924920 Post by: Timelord2067 on September 19, 2017, 03:36:38 AM Accounts Connected:
