Link to informative thread with information about using a bitcoinalk escrow service and list of bitcointalk escrows by Financisto here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276897.0).

Please contact any of the above recommended escrows before conducting any business on bitcointalk.

This forum and the crypto world in general is full of scammers, using an escrow will help greatly against being scammed but not guarantee it.

Use common sense and due diligence and ask an established member if you're in any doubt. We're all here to help believe it or not ;D.

*I've compiled this list to help forum users. At the time of last update these are all trusted forum escrows. If any escrow on this goes rogue and scams I'm not responsible in any way, shape or form.  I do not know any of them personally only through the bitcointalk forum. If in any doubt about one of the escrows please contact me or any of the other escrows on the list.

If anyone can recommend updates or corrections please send me a private message :).

+100, thanks again hedgy!

Would be great if you added some info, like length of service, minimum fee, etc.

 ;D

No worries :)

I will :)

Theres literally a thread in the services that someone could find that has it, not the top 5 escrow thread that is really old. But one that is maybe a year old that was made by zepher? listing him, TMAN, lauda and some others as escrows if my memory serves me correctly

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1938190

And I'd certainly trust TMAN with my life actually. Guy is 100% legit and quite trustworthy, despite the ongoing OGnasty vs. TMAN spat.... :P

Thanks! 

SebastianJu and philipma1957 should be added to the list.

Thank you everyone :)

There was never any spat between myself and TMAN.  There was only TMAN attacking me until he was banned.  That should be obvious to any impartial observer.

Ok no worries :)

Done :)

Lol.. Whatever says the guy who felt so attacked he had to accuse 10 other accounts of being TMAN's alts.. And then never removing the neg on Eoakland perhaps?

You really got get on some better meds buddy... ;D  

I like to use Zepher, MJ & Lauda as they are more current than some of the older guys..

IE - OG nasty and his refusal to use Multi Sig is a disgrace in this fast paced technology.

Also they offer Alt coin Escrow as well.. we all know how much of a killer fees are at the moment and between the 3 of the above they have held close to $250K of my bitcoins and physicals over the last 18 months.


philipma1957  & SebastianJu -I haven't dealt with personally but have had nothing but good things about..

+1 for Minerjones or Zepher.  They are both highly knowledgeable about the collectibles market, and have top notch customer service / communication. 

+1 for Minerjones

I echo MinerJones and Zepher as they’re two users I’ve had multiple dealings with and highly value/trust!

+1 for Zepher & Minerjones.  8)

I want to be an escrow as well for U.K.

Lol.

Not sure, what is funny

Because you have very little rep fella..

+1 for Minerjones

What do you mean when you say little. Do you mean bad or do you mean lesser known.

I think he means lesser known..look at the trust and positive feedbacks..those are their reputations on forum

you have no real trades, members will of needed to of traded for tens if not hundreds of thousands of $ on the forum before people are comfortable even thinking of allowing the member to escrow a deal.
in cold hard facts you have 0 trade rep here so why would anyone trust you with funds?

+1 for:

minerjones

Blazed

zepher

philipma1957

All respected members and excellent escrows.

thanks!

this, I personally still trust TMAN.

thanks for the Vote squall, but I do NOT offer escrow and really don't see it as something I would want to be doing in the near future... plenty of great escrows here already.. you just can't add Og nasty to that list.

I retract my statement

In which case, I assert it.

marcotheminer thread is outdated and the list have misleading info.

Thanks I will remove it :).

Please add also their minimum fee for their escrow service and also the timezone where they are active here in the forum, This might really help in choosing the best escrow fitted to the deal. I already try the service of MJ and it is amazing.  ;D

Should probably add Blazed to this list.

My minimum escrow fee is currently 0.003 BTC.  

Is Blazed doing escrow currently? It says on the CET thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1938190.msg19245514#msg19245514) that he is on leave.

Thanks guys will update with minimum fee and timezone after work later.

I think he just says that to keep random newbies from messaging him, but I guess that's a reason why he wouldn't want to be on this list either.  :)

I have used Jones a few times, I know from past that blazed zeph and nasty are good guys

also da Cow if she ever want to do this haha

Ive been trying to make some more btc in the crypto markets lately so I can buy more collectible's from you guys

have a great week !

Escrow from US / Canada please.  :)

Are you asking to be an escrow from US / Canada?

or

Requesting an escrow that is US / Canada based?

Either way you would have a better time messaging the escrows listed.

@hedgy73 pointed a sticky to your thread, lets keep this place safe

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=133931

Sorry, I mean a residence from US / Canada :)

Cheers buddy yes lets try our best :)

I have updated first post with some more details so you can see who's in the US :).

No problem buddy have updated your information :)

I have changed from 1% to 2% fee

I also charge 0.002 btc on every deal for tx fees  but I make every effort to spend less then that and I refund  what I did not spend in an alt coin such as LTC
I don't like having to do this but I have had tx fees jump very high while holding the coins on deals and then had to spend hours trying to push the transaction.

Thank you I have changed your fee to 2% :).

I have sent everyone on the list a private message to check their details are correct and notify me of any changes.

I'm updating the list with any changes required as and when I hear back :).

My minimum escrow fee is currently 0.003 BTC.

Thanks have changed to 0.003BTC :).

Thanks for including me on the recommended escrow list hedgy73, and also to the users who have given me a shout out here in their posts. Appreciate it!

One thing I would just like to make people aware of is my minimum/maximum fee. My minimum fee is 0.002BTC for small transactions (0.2BTC or less), and then a fixed 1% for anything higher than that.

I have a capped fee of 0.025BTC per transaction. Therefore should you require escrow for 3BTC for example, the escrow fee will still only be 0.025BTC - never more.

I'm not willing to escrow any types of account sales, that is final and not up for debate. Please don't PM me asking for such a service, I'll likely not even reply.

Multisig is available as well with another member listed here.

I'll be making an escrow thread sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks!

Hi Zepher thanks for the info I have updated your details.

Please let me know when you've done your escrow thread and I'll add it on :).

Just a headsup, currently my minimum fee is 0.006b or 1% (whatever is higher) + tx fee. I escrow btc and altcoins on request basis. ICO's are fine on request basis and evaluation. I secure with bitcoin signatures signed with a very old address of mine.

Just ask if I can escrow something.

Thanks for the info I have updated your details :).

Can I be added to the escrow list?

Official Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2221107.0

Fee: 1.25%

Cryptocurrencies: Ether

Location: Asia

Escrow history: 4 transactions, 2.83 Eth in total.



I secure escrow transactions using the Dapp EscrowMyEther (http://escrowmyether.com/), using Ether as currency. The ethereum smart contract securely hold buyer's funds while in escrow. Escrow agents only have the ability to refund the buyer or release funds to seller. They can never access the funds for an extra layer of security.

By using the Dapp, buyers can initiate the escrow transaction and sellers can view incoming transactions on dashboard immediately without several messages with the escrow, saving both parties time. (especially for small amounts) Buyers can also release funds themselves in the Dapp.


Some pictures of the Dapp

No sorry this list is for trusted bitcointalk escrows with previous trade experience.

Thanks for the post - am replying to enable me to follow the thread.

No problem :)

Good. I was looking for this service to pay service providers in a safe manner.

Not sure John K is really active enough to add to this list. I know he used to be the go to guy for escrows a few years back, but I never see him these days. The rest of the list looks good to me though.

Slightly off topic, I was going to suggest this thread be listed on the [Overview] The one thread to link them all https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1217042.0 thread, but I see shorena (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=181801) has both locked the thread and has been offline for six weeks.

Does anyone know if they will be back soon?  Should an interim new "One Thread to link them all" style thread be started for changing threads?

I would remove Lauda and minerjones from this list. They were both escrow for a deal that went bad, in which funds were lost, and lauda had announced (http://archive.is/yDC3k#selection-1645.0-1600.10) the escrow agents were going to impose the losses on those they were supposed to be protecting against losses -- this very much defeats the point of using escrow.

dont listen to this scumbag....

my thoughts is anyone who doesnt offer multi sig should be removed.. as they are dinosaurs in the new age..

You fail to mention the part where Lauda and minerjones, with the help of Gleb and maybe others recovered all funds and paid it back to the investors Here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1778405.0). AFAIK they even waived their fees even after all the extra work that got added. So please, stop spreading that about some of the most honest/professional escrows out there.

BURN!!!!!

rekt

Escrow scammer making recommendations for a list of escrow services, and lying while at it? Just pathetic. :D

I had a feeling they'd deliver - well done people!

In my time I have used nearly all of that list as escrows / or have traded with them and trust them
OgNasty
SebastianJu
minerjones
John K.   
Lauda   
Mitchell
Zepher
Lutpin

Thats not to say I dont trust the few I havent listed, just that I havent had dealings with them (yet  ;D )

That is not the point. Lauda and minerjones (along with yahoonumbers) screwed up, and said they were going to impose losses as a result. The whole point of using escrow is to not allow losses resulting from someone absconding with funds.

Also, they did charge a fee, see this (https://blockchain.info/tx/32f10a88d5362c161f07d1b0df56ffbfee6902b9730d8ceab2e223c70cd094df) transaction, each of them "earned" around $215.


I am curious to know if anyone would be willing to use a particular escrow service if they knew there is a possibility a scammer would run away with funds, and the escrow agent would not cover losses when they failed to properly secure the money.

Nope.

You can't protect what you don't hold. That was made clear. Your illiteracy sure ain't my problem.

---

Go away already, butthurt scammer; you *covered* enough by shamelessly scamming dozens of people. I do wonder why *certain individuals* didn't tag you. ::)

There is always a fair possibility that the escrow will attempt to fuck over their customers for personal gain, as shown by yourself and Master-P. I would hope that anyone using an escrow acknowledges this.

did anyone order a cunt?? cos one keeps on coming in and posting in this thread...

utilizing multisig does help prevent scams..  maybe that is why OG refuses to use it?? are you saying that your favorite escrow is more likely to scam than someone using multi sig??

wow.. turning on your lover OG??

Hi Blazed I sent John a message asking if his details were correct and he replied saying they were so assumed he was okay to be on the list :).

Can you fuck off?

FYI - I also escrow altcoins for double my rate (2%, same minimum applies).  8)

Lauda is not a scammer and I have trusted them with plenty of coins etc...

Thanks have updated your details :)

philipma is currently inactive due to people trying to impersonate him

Escrow coin will be launched soon, users will be able to avail escrow services without any fee

Good-luck with your venture, I'm sure with some trades under your belt you'll be listed here in no time...

...oh and what's your other UID name please?

I saw that OP is recently updated and you still keep updating this thread, it might be nice if you can add me to the list or try to see my trust page (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=765632) with my recent trades regarding escrow. Thank you.

I think 0% of escrow fee are suited for new escrow which is only building a trust for their accounts their services was free but if they already have more trust i think in the future it will impose fee for every successful transaction to be made like what morr trusted escrow do before.

I'd be very cautious of someone trying to get you to use their escrow service with a 0 fee.  Transaction fees alone for decent confirmation times can be as much as 0.0017 BTC currently.  I'd question the motivations of anyone who was willing to lose money for the chance to hold your coins.

There is literally no need for any kind of "new escrows" (unless you want another exit scam like we've seen in the past) let alone 0% fee.

I'd assume that transaction fee costs are assumed to be covered by the buyer/seller even when there is a 0% fee, but:

I fully concur with this. Someone would have to be out of their mind to take such a huge risk(s) for free or ill intended.

No fee when transaction done using escrow coin , If any other crypto currency is used then there will be Fee.

users will be able to mined this coin , POW/POS . If any issue in escrow transaction it will be reviewed and resolved with the help of master nodes

I'm working on a potential purchase with another forum member who is requesting SebastianJu as escrow provider.. any highly trusted forum members here with any feedback on SebastianJu?

He's a highly trusted escrow, make sure you contact the correct SebastianJu here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18640

Thanks Hedgy.  Do you have any experience with buying/selling Genesis Mining accounts? 
I'm already a customer of theirs and will be buying another forum member's account if all works out properly.

You're welcome but no sorry I don't have any experience with mining accounts or buying & selling them. First check it's allowed and can be done. Lot's of scammers about be careful.

Perhaps you can ask the question on the genesis mining thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=602022.0

Hopefully someone can help you there :).

Can I can be added to the escrow list?

Has anyone used "EscrowMyBits" or can they recommend any of those services??

Hello, I would need a member with reputation for an escrow. (Selling a localbitcoins account for bitcoins).
Anyone available?

Thank you !

I've worked with SebastianJu on many projects together using multisig, and sometimes regular addresses. We sometimes do direct deals too. My most recent escrow transaction with two traders was a batch of 10 GPUs. The highest amount I've held was about $6m USD worth of an altcoin, but that's a little misleading as it was at the peak of crypto before the "great crash of January 2018", so it's now worth only $2m USD.

Feel free to add me to this list, my details are the same as on Financisto's thread. I'm not increasing my fees just yet, but I don't mind being last in the list so I've also set a minimum fee of 0.03 BTC (or equivalent in alts).

Thank you and have a nice day!

Hi Dabs thanks for your post I have added you to the list please check it and let me know if you need anything changed.

Thank you I hope you have a nice day too :).

I can confirm this. Dabs is a nice guy. Works correctly and I guess at the moment he is one of two escrow I can say that I trust them. Just checked, yes I gave him a trustrating already some time ago. :D

Dev team of Escrow coin is providing free Escrow service

Please stop spamming your coin. Just because your coin's name is "escrow coin"? LMAO. Why should even the community should trust your " dev team "?

Hello, I need a middleman for an escrow (I am selling a paxful account for cash/bitcoins) If anyone can help please PM me.

Thank you !

I need escrow for $35 account I know the amount is too little but I can pay $5 for the service charge. If anyone willing to do so please let me know

i need to exchange my bitcoin to Fiat through moneygram or wester union or wafacash.
is there someone interested and i need escrow For that.

thank you

hey Zazarb,
wonder if you could help an escrow for us

thanks.

i randomly found this thred. :thumbsup: thank guys. its always good to see trust being  brought to the internet.

What about these escrow services? 

Bit Trust
Pay Safe Escrow
Safe Funds
Escrow My Bits
Pay Safe Escrow

Anyone had experience using any of these escrow companies? 

Thanks!

 Those are not bitcoin talk escrow services, so your inquiry seems off topic to the thread, no?  Can you provide links?  or maybe since you are already off-topic and a newbie, you are merely trolling (or shilling) anyhow, right?

I wonder how disputes are resolved say buyer receive goods and then claims it was faulty etc? Who is going to check and how?

Yes, I was wondering about that as well. Makes perfect sense for sellers to carefully document the shipping process in case a buyer turns out to be a clever scammer by invoking the goods-never-received defense. Or by saying rocks were in the box or switching the seller's delivered goods with fake ones.

Video-documenting the packing, dispatch and shipping process is an important part of the selling process. Scammers will always find ways to cheat.

As for the faulty-goods excuse, I'm not sure what precautions sellers can take. Tricky situation.

Thanks a lot for the info , i have been searching so far

To be honest I haven't heard of many disputes when escrow is used. I think common sense is key when buying or selling.

Rule of thumb is if anyone selling on here refuses to use one of the escrows in my list its probably a scam.

You will often see excuses like "I've been scammed by escrow before" or "I don't trust them" or "what's an escrow" or "how does escrow work".

These are common distraction excuses to avoid an escrow being involved.

Another scam is sellers directing you to a fake escrow. Always take your time dont be rushed into sending funds and always check with the escrow involved through their forum profile that you're dealing with the right person.

If in doubt ask me or any other reputable member or comment on the for sale thread.

Stay safe and remember if its too good to be true it usually is and refusal to use forum escrow is nearly always a scam unless they are sending first of course.

Why you're posting those here (you should either send those through PM [to the escrow provider of your choice] or simply post it on their announcement threads)?

@Mitchell, please check pm. wanna use your MM service~

The CET link is pointing to a profile. The ANN post would fit better https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1938190

Thank you I have changed the link to point to the CET page :).

please change

Done :)

I have been asked to end my escrow services.

So I regret to ask but please remove me from escrow listing.

Care to elaborate? Asked by who?

I do not wish to make people think  it was from bitcointalk.org in any way shape or form.

It was not.

 i.e.

no members
no moderators
no donors
no admins

I rather leave it at that.

I can think of someone who may do this...

That's a shame. I've removed you from the list, if you'd like to go back on it let me know and I'll add you again.

Understood, that was enough. It's unfortunate, but there's not much that you can do. Thanks for answering.

Hi all,

bittawm has asked me if he can be added to the escrow list.

His profile is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=144811

Said I'd run it by the community to see if anyone had any objections to him being added.

Base on his previous trust history and the time line of when he get his trust feedback. I can say that he can possibly meet the criteria of being a truly trusted person. But escrow​ needs a good knowledge on decision making if ever some  bad situation happened between the two user involved. Hmmmm. I think he can be a trusted escrow by judging on his post activity since he was always been involved in trading here.  ;)

Thanks for the feedback guys.

A few things to note:

-I have hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of sales from bittawmart with never using escrow
-I have been involved with community funded transactions, where I held close to 1 million dollars of the community's funds for a single purchase of hundreds of machines

Would love to be added to the list. I have many legendarys (and not legendarys for that matter) who would personally vouch for me

Cheers

People don't forget about multisig, if you use multisig when trading here on BCT you don't have to rely on escrow guys being online. Not to mention saving on escrow fee's and tip's.

Here is a great client-side javascript app called 2crow (http://2crow.org) which will help anyone trading accomplish this. It also works offline and is of course open source (https://github.com/funkshelper/2crow).

Exactly the list I was looking for. Great resource. Thanks and bookmarking.

Hey bittawn as I mentioned via private message I've given it a few days to ask anyones objections to you being added and as nobody has I'm happy to put you on the list :).

If you can send me a message with your details and ideally create an announcement thread that would be great.

Commended, thanks for providing information about those trusted escrow. Hope I can send you merit. God bless

Reserved. It's a great resources. ;D

Nice compilation of escrow services. Thanks guys! 

Hey guys, just a question, someone would do escrow for digital goods? Something like gift card, ebooks, emails and all other virtual things? Or anyone know a trusted site/people who does this? Thanks.

Not sure of anyone here, but this site might have or do what you need. https://bitify.com/  (I don't have any affiliation, I've just used it a few times with no issue).

Thank you, i already have seen this site but then i tought.. what if the buyer take a screenshot/copy of the digital thing and then request the refund while not releasing the payment? So i decided to not join this site also if many people has a nice experience with it.. but with digital goods i'm not really sure..

is this list still comprehensive?

Yes I think so.

i have 32024 vortix tokens anyone who want to buy pm me my telegram username is sisak05

Try posting in this section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=161.0

Krogothmanhattan has asked to be added to the list.

His profile is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1000199

His escrow announcement thread is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5055177.0

I don't have a problem adding him but if anyone else does please post here or message me.

Just wanted to run it by everyone before adding him to the list.

He should be on this list, definitely a trustworthy user!

Can you add me as well?

Ok thanks for the recommendation. I'll add you too if nobody has any objections :).

Do you have an escrow thread?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4873710.0

Ok great thanks I'll give it a few days and if nobody objects I'll add your details :).

I can vouch for Hhampuz from actual BTC experience and he's definitely trustworthy. I've not used Krog's services yet, but I have known him quite a while and believe him to be just as trustworthy as anybody else on this list.

Is Yogg (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=140827) on here yet??  If not he should be, he acts as my EU escrow for my sales thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5053145.msg47035217#msg47035217).

Here is his escrow thread... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2460025

Thanks Hedgy!  :D

Hi owlcatz no problem at all, thanks for the recommendations if there are no objections I'll add them all in a few days :).

Those members still provide escrow service now?

Hello i need escrow service is there anybody avelible

Go to the first post in this thread. Choose one, send them a pm. ;)

Yes they do :)

Hi!

What are the eligibility criteria for this list?

I'm providing an escrow service for Russain/Ukrainian part of the forum. Here is my thread:

- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3255367.0

Also I have another one at the biggest crypto-forum of CIS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Independent_States):

- https://forum.bits.media/index.php?/topic/82054-%D1%83%D1%81%D0%BB%D1%83%D0%B3%D0%B8-%D0%B3%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%B0-escrow-%D0%BE%D1%82-thefuzzstone/

And third thread:

- https://xmr.ru/threads/393/

The total amount of deals at the moment 2.93 BTC and 7.5 ETH.

For now I'm the only Russian/Ukrainian speaking escrow which offers to make a deal using multisig for BTC and also for ETH (I made two manuals for newbies Electrum multisig (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3308541) and GNOSIS multisig (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5045068)).

Thanks!

Can any moderators vouch for you? Not all of us can read Russian.  ;D ::)

Hi. I am the forum (https://forum.bits.media/) administrator. The forum has a user named TheFuzzStone (https://forum.bits.media/index.php?/profile/27101-thefuzzstone/).
As of 11.27.2018, the user in his topic (https://forum.bits.media/index.php?/topic/82054-гapaнт-oбщaя-cyммa-cдeлoк-296-btc/) has 6 positive reviews and no negative reviews.

I've not used his services, but I do know he is very active in the Russian XMR community and is one of the founders of https://xmr.ru , a very popular and well-made Russian Monero forum/site.

I've also conversed with him several times over the years on some XMR issues and he's helped me out on a few technical issues here and there.   

I don't know, but I think it's good to have escrows from all over - God knows I've needed one here or there for different reasons when others are not available, especially for different regions. :)

Sorry guys have been really busy will spend some time on this thread soon :).

Can you remove this member from your list?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=101872

Why?

I asked @btcsec to leave simply and honest feedback about me and I'm really thankful for his reply.

Also I asked xandry (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=382413) and Xal0lex (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1068464). Xal0lex is not so long at this forum, so we are not very familiar. xandry -- we had a few private conversations in the past. Once he helped me with a scammer who pretended to be me (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4465687.msg40498268#msg40498268), so he know about my service.

More feedbacks about me anyone can ask:

• https://t.me/XMR_RU  -- the biggest local Monero community. There are a lot of people in chat who are fluent in English, so there is no need to use a translator from English to Russian
• https://t.me/cryptoUkraine  -- crypto-enthusiasts from Ukraine, they know me. In April 2017 I helped restore funds to one of the chat administrators (26.90 XMR), he gave me a mnemonic phrase
• http://blockchainconf.org/ and http://kyiv.blockchainforum.com  -- helped in organizing offline crypto-events in Kyiv (the capital of Ukraine)
• https://forklog.com/  -- worked a little together in 2015
• LiveCoin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=462136)  -- several times worked together

Check his trust

Probably because the user seems to be a bully. And he has butthurt this person before.
Personally I do not think the user should be trusted with money provided the fact that the user has extorted people before.

Assuming all this just by reading user's trust history at a glance. Plus there's that question whether he is a he or if she is a she or somewhere in between.

Not suggesting that gender plays a part in determining people's trustworthiness - but just saying that if a user can't trust this community with their gender why should they be "trusted" ??

How about you mind your own business? Butthurt alts got no say in this.

It's none of your business and attacking me like this (again, with random alts) ain't doing you any favors.

New Escrow service available on Bitcointalk or Discord with Dream:

https://discord.gg/DN9EXfC
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5116510.0

(EDIT - Updated)
As you can see in my Bitcointalk profile, I am a reputable member with 9 or so positive trust reviews from deals/trades i've done here, some with escrow and some without. And I have 0 negative reviews.

On discord, I have done 2 escrow deals using Dream's escrow service so far and it has been a positive experience. The fees seem pretty low too compared to what I seem to remember paying using the regular Bitcointalk escrow guys.

Highly recommended and the popularity of Dream's escrow service on discord has been growing!

hedgy73 I PM'd you about Dream

...and for those of us that don't know what Dream is?

Are you a third party escrow?  Please elaborate.

saw a thread about that https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5116510

Hmm, IDK - Not sure I like off-site escrowing.  Makes it almost impossible to police.  Anyone going there has no recourse here as the OP of that thread isn't the one running the Discord Channel.

Not for this list anyhow.... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2439910.msg26346255#msg26346255

Isn't there like a company or something we can use as an escrow? How come everybody is listing individuals as escrow?

It's mostly because automated services don't check the trades that are going to happen the same way a person would do. An escrow can identify possible risks, try to avoid them upfront and warn the traders against risks that the escrow can't protect against. It's the time and thoughts taken into the deal that makes a difference.

It is difficult to gauge the risk of using a company escrow service because anyone can create a website with fake reputation. There are probably 2-3 legitimate escrow companies and many more scams. There is also a bit of a bias towards themselves among those who make these lists.

Unless you are using LBC to engage in a fiat <—> BTC (or altcoin) trade, I would avoid nearly all escrow companies.

I have updated the list today with 2 more escrows Hhampuz (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=881377) & Krogothmanhattan (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1000199).

I would like to recommend this user bL4nkcode (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=765632)
His ANN: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2062906.0
He is definitely a trustworthy user.

Now I find his application here

Good day, whenever you get a chance you can add Darkstar_  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=507936)to the list. Saves me adding him in as an addition when I direct people here for an escrow list. Here is the [ANN] (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2724325.msg27877712#msg27877712) for his service.

Thanks for continuing to maintain the list.

anyone to escrow for digital trades?

I wouldn't recommend trading on Dream's escrow discord.

Hi there, I'd like to get on the list, here are the infos :

minimum fee : 0.5% + tx fee
cryptocurrencies : btc and alt (see topic)
member since : 2015
location : EU timezone
official thread : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5156456.0

i am so in urgent need of a trusted escrow for a customer who wants to buy my forum ( website ) he asked to use escrow for payment , payment via btc.
i am very worried how i can trade this without beign cheated.  so am willing to release the entire details to the escrow himself to check info to be correct and accurate and himself release it to the customer and give me money. this way customer will not have to lie or cheat as escrow himself personally verify the details to be correct and of value before giving to buyer.
anyone can help me ?
pls contact me. i will pay for this service.

Why can't you contact any of the people mentioned in the OP?

The only people that are going to contact YOU are probably scammers trying take your money out from under you.
Some more escrowers in this thread; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5047302.0

true. but some of them do not do escrow for Digital goods. and forum is digital goods. this is why i do not know which to contact for this. i so need help please.

also anytime i try to send a PM i get this error below

An Error Has Occurred!
The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. Please try again later. The thing you were trying to post was saved as a draft. This limit decreases substantially as your account becomes more established.

I think most of them also escrow e-goods, and if they don't, well i guess it doesn't hurt to ask.

That's to prevent abuse since you're a newbie account.. I know, it kind of sucks, but i'm pretty sure you can circumvent it by buying a copper membership. - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2385104.msg24371150#msg24371150
(If you're only here for a one-time escrow i don't recommend you buy it though! it doesn't have that many features besides reducing the PM limit from 360 to 90 seconds.)

I think sebastian escrows digital goods? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1102721

Yes, I do trades like that. I will send you a pm HelpMePleaseIbegofYou.

Edit: I would like to add, never let yourself push around by a buyer claiming that you only have few time and need to act fast. This is often used to push a seller into FOMO so he makes errors. Most common is unfortunately that the buyer has not enough time anymore and it's done without escrow. With clear results since it was planned like that from the start.

Not saying it is the case her, just being cautious of trading partners that are in a hurry. It's not worth it being pushed around. The risk-reward is bad there.

Updating my personal list here to add-Lauda, Krogomanhatten, Hhampuz, & OG Nasty. Can’t go wrong with any of them.
(RIP Zepher  :'( )

List of escrows on 1st page of this thread buddy ;)

Does anyone have any objections to me adding DarkStar_ to the list: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=507936

He's asked and if no objections will add in a few days.

None here I posted here a few months back to get Darkstar_  added. I doubt you'll hear any objections either considering they have been entrusted with one of the positions on the forums multisig wallet (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=155000.0).

DarkStar_ is a given for this list, considering he is now also part of the forum treasury Escrow team.

Big thumbs up from me!

The CET (crypto escrow team) is no longer escrowing (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1938190.msg19245514#msg19245514). Lauda's thread also leads there.

minerjones still has an active thread: here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1833742).

Thank you I have removed the info and link to CET and Laudas link.

Thanks for the recommendations I have added DarkStar_ today :).

I'm looking for escrow help for deal. Please help me with this. My profile is new so cant sent messages more than 1. How I can contact with You for escrow help :)

Please guide me about it :)

You can post in their official topics for the escrows in the OP. If they are still active they will be monitoring their threads. To make it easier explain what you are buying and the coin being used for the purchase.

here i am newbie wanna buy btc via paypal and most of people who wannna trade with me is also newbie.now no one want send first..now is here any member to escrow our trade for long term.??
i knocked some legendary users.but no reply.

nobody will likely escrow paypal/btc trades - chargebacks can occur rendering escrow worthless. Word to the wise, find another way to buy BTC.

Escrow might help you a successful trade between numbers of users here, but he can't control the funds once the paypal owner do a chargeback after some time (after 180 days to be exact). That's why most people here are very skeptical of using escrow for a PayPal trade from a brandnew/newbie users.

Not unless if paypal holder will send first to reputed users (a must) that will consider trading with you or/and the btc/crypto holder will have a higher % rate to paypal exchange  (eg. $100 PP to $80 btc).

Sir,

Very glad to read this page, may i know all the people in the link for escrow can be trusted?

They typically are on this list/post because they ARE already very trusted. ;)

Any of the escrow providers in the original post available to help with a trade?   Seems like everyone is offline and the few I messaged are not around.

Have you tried Yogg or Minerjones.... Or krogothmanhattan? Just be patient, those are the 3 I would use though. ;)

I believe everyone on this list operate manually at their own time. So transactions can take a few hours, or even a day. But if the deal or contract between the two traders has been set, they only need to verify the transaction on the escrow address through any block explorer. The escrow will eventually release the coins if the deal is otherwise good.

Who you're referring to?

• Create a thread in Scam Accusations (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0) board instead ^{[make sure to include all of the details]}.

Seems like he/she comes to the wrong board. Just impossible if all of escrow on the OP make a scam or trying to scam for their costumer because they will keep their reputation.

I am not new to forums but new to offering escrow as I know some of the others like Phil are starting to offer their services less

here is my thread with details https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5154480

Hello, I am seeking escrow service. Still a newbie account so have exceeded my daily messages. Please PM me @subie on Telegram.

Watch out for scammers - make sure you are dealing with the same person by having them send you a pm on here first.

I think you will be out of newbie status soon, maybe this Tuesday? :P

If this list had included an escrows from local parts of the forum, then maybe the situation would be better for the entire community.

I wrote to the esteemed @hedgy73 several times, but I was rejected in response because "I dont have enough forum trust to be on the list".

When I gave him information about myself (11 December 2018), who I am, how many time I'm in the crypto community, and what I do), his answer was: "I can only go on what I see on the forum." -- I can assume he doesn't give a fuck about the information I gave him, and he didn't even check it out. And it turns out that he's "right" because he is the topic starter. 🤷🏻‍♂️

And the last one thing:

---

https://i.imgur.com/Zkmihct.png

---

After that answer, it's understandable that I stopped messaging him, because it would be rude of me, and I also realized that he wouldn't add me to the list because of... <put_a_reason_here>.

And again, there are no criteria (except for the personal and subjective opinion of the author of the topic).

In the past, I was naive and thought that we were all a friendly community here, and we can help each other and of course newcomers in the community so they wouldn't fall into the hands of scammers.

My humble advice to a new escrows -- ignore this list, even though Google loves this topic (https://www.google.com/search?q=bitcointalk+escrow).

Simply offer your services and build your reputation and do not participate in deals involving the selling/buying of forum accounts (LocalBitcoins accounts), because by doing so you're encouraging the spread of spam and potential fraud. (It's my personal belief.)

---

This post was written without a drop of anger or spite to the author of the topic.
I just expressed my opinion and how personally I see the situation.

Thanks.

Ok I'm not exactly sure why you posted this but here goes.

Just over as year ago you asked me if you could be on the list I said no as you didn't have good enough forum trust. I feel that having good forum trust is very important as its a list of trusted forum escrows.

You then sent me a few messages saying you had some trust on this site and some trust on that site which I said no again and asked you politely to stop messaging me.

Now a year on you make this post when you still dont have any trusted forum feedback and the untrusted feedback you do have is half red.

As I said to you privately a year ago I get lots of requests from people to be on this list but they're not considered because they don't have good enough trust on this forum.

Also at the moment I feel that the list is full of very professional and trusted escrows and so there is no need to add any more people to it.

I hope this explains my reasons to you. Have a great day and good luck at becoming a forum escrow one day.

I just expressed my opinion about this topic and that other escrow does not need to be on the list to do business successfully on the forum.

Okay, let's hear more from this point.  :)

Is there any official list of approved forum administration rules about how many reviews I need to have to get from a list created by someone not related to the forum administration? (do you feel the irony?  :))

Or maybe there are rules that require the circulation of my BTC, ETH and XMR wallets to exceed a certain amount in the fiat in order to get on a list?

I can ask a lot more questions like that, the answer to which is, "No, there are no rules from the administration about this list."

If you took this topic more seriously, you would at least google information about me (or about the others), who I am, how long I've been in the community, and what I do, etc.

Trusted feedback from who should I get, lol? You and I are from different parts of the forum? How do you know who is who in the Russian-speaking part of the forum? How can I get feedback from the English-speaking part of the forum if I offer my services to Russian-speaking/Ukrainian-speaking users of this forum?

You've been on the forum since 2013, and you're still very naive.  :)
I just looked at your untrusted feedbacks, and surprise(/s), you've got enough red, too. So? Any comments?  :)

I repeat the question, who decides (except you, as the author of the topic) and by what criteria?

BINGO! 🎉
That's what I wanted to hear from you, so others can see.

Only you, as the author of the topic, decide who is on the list and who isn't. People who have a reputation on this forum (in local parts of the form) can not get here because you do not know who they are and they do not have "enough reputation on the forum".

By the way, when I finished writing the previous paragraph, I understood what you mean about "trusted feedback from trusted forum members". It's very easy to get a "good reputation" from the English-speaking part of the forum, just take a loan from someone (who is popular among the rest of the forum), return the loan + fee (usually it's about 1-2%), and that's it -- you got a review and already "trusted". This scheme always made me smile.  :D

No, it's not.  :D
But your answers convinced me of what I was thinking about this list. I' m grateful to you for your answers. (no kidding, no sarcasm)

Thank you! You too!

Why would anyone want luck to be an escrow? (rhetorical question)

For almost two years I have been successfully working as an escrow on Bitcointalk, and on the most popular crypto-forum (https://forum.bits.media/) of the CIS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Independent_States), with 100% positive feedbacks, and you know... I don't need to be listed here -- that's what I wanted to tell the other escrows that you refused to "list".
Yeah, I agree that some % of the people who wrote you probably were scammers, it's pretty easy to check too, but you obviously won't do it because you don't give a fuck (which is fine too).

Looking to complete a trade. Any trusted and old member willing to escrow? Kindly drop me a PM. thank you.

Thanks for the list, this is great. I'm also looking for an escrow service, if any of the members on this list are still doing it send me a PM please.

depending on what you are trying to do, I can maybe help. dm me.

Hey, i´m an argentinian starting with the bitcoin business, and i have invested in Livestock since i had enought money to be accepted in a scrow, and the meat here is very cheaper everyday due to the crisis and the Coronavirus, and i have all the information and contacts to start a scrow based on argentine Livestock, one that you can pay in Bitcoins and your money will be secure in the international price of cows (i am currently investing in fields from all around the country, most of our meat goes to China and then the UE, and is currently the second most valuable in the market after the USA one), so, my question is, what is the requierement for being aproved as a official scrow and start looking for funding?

I am willing to explain all in detail to whoever is interested, basically you pay Bitcoins now and will recibe cows in the future (i will explain you all your guarantees and risks, and be the nexus between you and the argentine farmer.

Wow. Well... Um.... This is something different than the purpose of this thread I think. Maybe you should post this on services board instead?

This thread is to find a trusted intermediary for a transactions with a potentially untrustworthy party. What you're looking for are forward contracts, I believe, so wrong section, Services, Marketplace or maybe Securities would be a better place to post.

holy shit, thank you!!!!!

hi

anyone know or used https://www.escrow.com
?

this service legit or scam??

i think most here will use the trusted forum escrow providers - lower fees and less risk.

I did some digging and found two comments that would answer your question ^{[to an extent]}:
^{- AFAIK, they don't accept BTCitcoin payments and I prefer not to vouch for their services [DYOR] so you're better off using one of the escrow providers from this forum.}

Hello, I'm looking for an escrow service. Are the people on the list still doing it? I will be appreciated if you can PM.
Thanks.

Mostly yes, most of them still do escrow. Just shoot a pm to them (my recommendation is either minerjones or SFR10, since both of them are very active)

This topic needs a serious revamp. Some of the users mentioned in OP should be removed, while others should be added.

DarkStar_ should be removed from OP as he is not offering escrow services anymore:


Lutpin should also be removed as I didn't see any topic where he announced that he is offering escrow services.

bittawm's ANN thread is missing from OP; here it is: Bittawms Legendary Escrow Service - 0.9% BTC (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3661826.0). However, the user was banned in the past, according to LoyceV:


He was later unbanned (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145454.msg51145914#msg51145914), but I don't know if an ex-banned user can be considered reliable for acting as escrow.

Other users from OP should be asked if they are willing to offer escrow services anymore. One example is John K., which is mostly inactive for months.

Besides, other reliabe users are offering escrow services and they should be added to OP. Such examples are yogg ([ESCROW] 🌠 yogg's escrow service ⭐ BTC & Alts ⭐ Fast ⭐ Reliable ⭐ Secure 🌠 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2460025.0)) or MoparMiningLLC (offering escrow services (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5154480)).

Just wanted to say that bans can happen quickly on here. I also had a short ban once because of one of the inofficial forum rules that said that I can't create multiple posts one after another in a thread. I wanted to answer everyone properly so that was that. :D

Better use a divider and collect all answers to different users in the same post. Just saying it's easy to get caught in a rule you don't know is worth a ban. Not sure what his ban was about though.

thank you for the reccomendation!

No worries :) But I think it's more important to see if OP will come back online to update the topic, as he is away for more than 1 month... In case he won't come back, maybe another topic should be created, a properly updated one.

there is another thread about escrow providers. There are several - some updated, some not.

That topic mentioned by you is very old (2013) and I had the impression that it is not updated. Now I see it was updated this month. I'll write there my suggestions as well, thanks for the heads-up!


As far as I see, he was baned for plagiarism, according to Cyrus: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145454.msg51144345#msg51144345.

Not sure why he would copy a sentence, maybe it was his second account. In any case it's somewhat weird that you get banned for that as a legit and established account that would likely not spam posts for sig campaigns or something.

It's best to write as few as possible on here in order to not violate some hidden rule, it seems. I do not really appreciate that feeling.

yes, it is very easy to get banned - I was banned for a ref link that was for tracking purposes - which Cyrus told me was ok - but another mod decided it was worth banning me for - banned me 3 days for 1 link (first offense) and then upped it to 7 days (because I had 2 total posts with the ref link)

It's not a hidden rule, plagiarism was always a bannable offense. People who pass off other users' posts as their own tend to do it on more than one occasion. Imagine what the mess the forum would be if a lot more users were to spam it with copy-pasted posts, inevitably scaring away worthwhile contributors.

That's for sure, especially since there are tools like XRumer that just would try to farm accounts like that. Or users that want to earn from sig campaigns. However, in that case it feels like the full heavyness of the law fell down for a really small problem. I mean one could say the rules are the same for everyone but the rule came into place for some special cases his post probably didn't fit in.

The worst thing about it is that the forum only has 2 bans. If you had a timed ban then the next one will take you out. Which is horrible and especially when you are a long time and established user on here you nearly has to fear someone crawling behind you just for the purpose of finding a little offense that could kill you for bitcointalk indefinitely. The more you post the higher the risk and the longer you are on here the higher the risk as well.

But it's probably not the right place to discuss this here. Or maybe it is since most escrows are long time members that would not want to risk their accounts just to being able to copy a post for whatever reason. It just doesn't make sense that copying that post was worth anything near to it when he was aware of what he did. Or even did in intentially which is who the rule was made for, users that intentionally post copies to push their post count to earn from sigs or level up.

Also to mention it here, current pricing would make me lower my min fee to 3 mBTC. Please update when you have time. Thank you!

Hi everyone apologies for not keeping an eye on this thread, I used to get emails telling me when someone had commented but haven't had any.

Long story short I'm out of the game now so hadn't' been logging in anymore. I still have an interest but not as much as before.

I'll get in touch with each escrow later today or tomorrow to see if they're still offering the service and if anything needs updating. Or they can contact me in the meantime.

If some are removed then perhaps there are some other good trusted escrows I can add?

Thanks for the update!

No problem I'll get the list updated over the next few days when I've contacted everyone :).

No changes for me. I'm still here. But I don't get as many contracts as before. No worries.

no changes for me either. should have said that in my other post.

Hi. I need escrow. Who can help me?

it is a bit later than when you first asked - but did someone get to you?

One dude is creating a POS coin for me. FULL service that includes wallets and block explorer. I made a down payment and after he will finish I have to pay him around $500 more. I need to escrow that dial via someone who will check the final result. Only after that I will pay the rest of money. If anyone is interested please PM me. Thanks in advance. 

I feel this person is a scammer - see my trust.  Common sense also dictates new accounts that know the past are very often old accounts that scammed. 

Nobody cares what you feel and your fucking trusts are fake anyway. Look at the trust you got, 3 flags and countless red, and you are the one judging others, hahaha. Idiot.

Where is the evidence? I already sent a message to administrator Theymos with request to ban you for leaving some "drunk" and inadequate feedbacks to users. You better remove your feedback a.s.a.p because it is the clear ABUSING OF THE TRUST SYSTEM.   I hope that one day you will be punished for such kind of behavior.

Not taking sides here. But it would have been better to escrow the full amount. Escrow would release in batches according to what is delivered. If the dev is somewhat trusted on here the less risk you went in now of course. Since the dev would want to proceed doing business on here. If the dev is a somewhat new user the past has shown, sadly, that the incentive between getting another $500 and just keeping the down payment without having to do any work and creating a new BCT-account instead is high.

I hope it works out for you. We have some great devs on here so chances are you contacted a legit one.
