Title: Introduction and a Small Question
Post by: Dostoievski on November 02, 2013, 03:32:39 PM
Hello, I just registered here but I've been watching the forum for a few days, since I kind of got into Bitcoins recently. The idea of having my money stored in a place I control and independent of any other entity/business/bank is very appealing. I trust no one.

In regards to that, I appreciated the Newbie Threads regarding security and especially regarding PGP keys. Very important, thank you.

One other thing: Is there any Mod or Admin who can tell me whether or not bernard75 is a member who is safe to deal with? He's selling Anonymous reloadable VISAs and I see he's a senior member with a few hundred posts and some successful business history here, for the most part he seems a legitimate seller and I think he's reliable, but I'd like a Moderators confirmation first. If bernard75 is watching this, sorry man, it's nothing personal. lol

Well, that's about it. If there's something wrong about this thread tell me, I don't think I broke any of the rules I read but one never knows.

Thank you.

No one can tell you that, you must decide on your own.

He has many positive feedbacks from other people and no negative ones: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=81795
But all those feedbacks are from perfect strangers.

If you don't trust him you can still do business with him using an escrow.

You never really "know" if anyone is safe to deal with.
