Made a $25 purchase and it was just a random number not a Starbucks gc.I would advise against anyone making a purchase until he makes this right
Damn ... was about to take a chance on, I mean buy, a "never die" Sbx card untill I saw your message.  

Maybe you should use that random number and buy a lottery ticket?

Thanks for photo of card.  Added card to my CFA account/app without problem.  

Good seller.  Got a good deal on his $10 CFA card.  He went first and I paid as soon as I successfully added it to my CFA account (about 5 minutes later).  Just used it up for lunch.  Cheesy

1386  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scammed: Quickzen / Rikugou on: February 17, 2016, 11:35:43 PM
Thats BS Man. And I actually got a code too, why the hell would I get a valid code from a scammer. Does the guy have 100s of already used codes that he gives out? Its not like you can ask pay ivy for a refund if your product details are blank. Its fishy and sketch what's going on.... I still want a replacement #.

You absolutely should still want a replacement number. You should get it from the person who sold it to you !! Do you expect Rikugou to give it to you?  When you buy from "shady" sites (this one included) as well as PayIvy & Bitify that sell using untraceable payments to/from anonymous users and the rest of them this is what happens.   AT least Bitify has some sort of semblance of an escrow system. Just average it out with all the wins.  This is like gambling.  Win some - lose some.  I've lost hundreds from scammers but I am ahead in the long run.  If you want security buy from Raise.com they have a 3 or 4 month guarantee or maybe even Starbucks.com.  Cheesy  You are obviously purchasing "questionable obtained" merchandise so what do you expect and don't say you don't know what you are buying.

Your lucky you didn't get in on the Panera fiasco.  75% of those cards were double & triple dipped.  I would always have to race the 3 other people using the same card number as me to see who could use it up first from all over the country.  It almost became a game.

You lost this round.  Give it up and move on.  Or maybe call the police or file a lawsuit on Judge Judy or Peoples Court and sue a guy named "rikugou" who allegedly sold you $100 gift cards for $30.  That'll go far. This is really silly UNLESS you can prove something.

Cracked my phone screen yesterday. I will figure out how to post a screenshot of the payivy invoice...

Edit: found the payivy invoice but my email is in it. If you guys want to see it I can send a pm or figure out how to blur it out. Here is the link to the blockchain transaction. Bought feb 7. My Btc address is in my sig.

No one disputes you purchased anything or got scammed.  The dispute is, scammed by who? 
1388  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scammed: Quickzen / Rikugou on: February 17, 2016, 07:46:44 PM
I have bought so much stuff from Rikugou over the last ?? months that some moron here even accused me of being is alt even though I'm probably old enough to be his grandfather.  With just about every purchase I have posted a HASH just so no one could accuse me of faking my "vouches" but this place is like the wild west and no one really can be trusted if you haven't previously done a lot of business with them.

In any case I have yet to have one single issue that he wasn't able to address quickly and fairly. Now that obviously doesn't prove he didn't scam YOU but if he was a scammer you certainly wouldn't be the only one he has scammed and I have yet to see another person except for that one idiot who accused me of being his alt. His Bitify feedback is also virtually flawless as well.  

I think you just got your ass kicked by someone using his name and playing off his good reputation which is very easy to do as you should well know.  Since you are someone who has "owned BTC since it was $1" you certainly should know what goes on around these places.  Plain and simple you got scammed and FOOLED (and made a fool of) by this seller who took his name. Take it like a man and move on.  You got screwed but more than likely it was not by him.  If you can PROVE otherwise I will rescind my opinion as well as any/all of my vouches.

I only wish he would get back those good never-die SBX cards Cheesy and the last of the 3 or 4 Whole Foods card I got from him many weeks ago (totally forgot I had it) is still good, in fact I have to send my wife out this weekend to spend it on dinner.  Cheesy

Now Rikugou you can send me the 125BTC you promised me for writing this!    JUST KIDDING!

And just for the record I have NEVER SOLD ANYTHING ON THIS FORUM despite what those who hit me with "retribution" negs state after THEY scammed me and I called them out for it.

I read it as a 76% discount. (Or is it 24% discount.)
I can try one if it you have any $25.

They are black hat and would be ideally used within 24 hours
can one buy a GC from a GC at a sbux location?

Yes, you can buy a physical card with an e-gift in a store or another e-gift with an e-gift online but if you are thinking doing that will "protect" it 99% of the time NOT the case. From lots of experience if the original goes bad everything generated from it will be bad no matter how many generations deep you go.

1391  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Gift cards - $100 for $6! (CHEAP) on: February 11, 2016, 02:50:49 PM
I have not bought any card from the OP (Orakelz) but I have bought many cards from other users here on the forum. I used e-gift Panera Bread cards MANY times by using the app. They have "Rapid Pick-Up", which is when they make your food and then put it in a bag and then put it on the book shelf thing when it's ready (that's what my local Panera Bread location has). I have also used the gift cards by going up to the register and telling the man/woman that I have a e-gift card and I want to use that to pay for my food, they will say that's ok!

Also, for all you people that have said something around the lines of, "Oh, the app won't let me use the card, it must not work, I must have gotten scammed", just shut up, because you're stupid. In the Android and the iOS version of the app, it CLEARLY says,

Android app: "Gift cards temporarily unsupported. If you have any issues at all, don’t hesitate to email MobileSupport@panerabread.com."

iOS app: "What's New in Version 1.51.1: Gift cards temporarily unsupported"

Proof: http://imgur.com/a/Dvfcg

iOS screenshot is from a iPhone 6S Plus.
Android screenshot is from a LG V10.

To the OP (Orakelz), hopefully a stranger (me) has helped you out a little bit by explaining why you're cards are supposedly "not working", it's only because some people are to lazy to look up their own problems. Grin

Hey mr helpful  Cheesy .... walk into a store TODAY and try using your cards.  Even if they show a balance online stores won't take them.  Last time mine worked was around 2/4.  You want all mine (around $900+ worth that show a balance but can't be used and another $400 or so that are showing zero balance) I'll give you a good deal.  Cheesy   I did actually buy one from their website online and THAT ONE worked fine.  I'll just have to go back to paying full price.  It was fun while it lasted. 
1392  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: DO NOT BUY FROM Gift card source! on: February 10, 2016, 02:28:14 AM
you should open up a thread here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0 and provide all informations and proofs so that DT users can tag him as scammer and no one would fall in him again
And Ok I will report him. Thanks for the link dude. Smiley

Sounds like another alt of loveps1.  Huh  Same modus operandi. New user, locked thread, no item. There are a couple other just like it still here. I got suckered by him but only for $11.  Didn't want to bother with escrow for $11 (but he wouldn't have given codes anyway).  I assume you didn't use escrow.
1393  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Bread Gift Cards $100.00 for $15.00 - Instant Delivery - 90 Day Warranty! on: February 10, 2016, 02:21:20 AM
The problem with gift cards that most should aware, is either if the #`s given out are being shared.

Hence the "warranty" that they mention and usually it pretty much is that. So its a race to zero, and the best to even consider this is bitcoin you gotten through profit.



Shared codes is an issue for sure, especially with these cards but that wasn't the issue with these (and all "similar") Panera cards,  These were locked by Panera with balances on them.  According to local store manager stores will not take cards showing purchased before a certain date unless you can prove ownership and legitimacy. Many of these cards had numbers off of physical cards that were never sold so it is obvious how they were obtained. If someone wants to take a chance and fight with the store manager you might get a free meal out of them which was what happened to me but their terms (just like Starbucks and most others) state only cards directly purchased from them are valid so that is their excuse for not taking them.  I assume if someone takes them to court they might have a chance but I highly doubt folks who paid anywhere from $6 - $15 for a $100 card would want to do that for obvious reasons.

sorry to anyone else who got ripped off by this person...

120$ isn't that much to me... but to some others... it might kill them ;-;


When a seller (especially a newbie with no posts) locks his thread you should know something is up.

My card is still showing the correct balances on their website but they just wont accept them in the store??!?! Still not 100% sure what to even do about that. I don't know that I can blame the original seller here. But how can a store not accept a gift card with a balance?

How?  Should a bank accept counterfeit money because it looks very real?  Nothing you can do.  Cards are dead despite balance.  That's the chance you take when you pay $15 or $20 or $30 or $50 or more  for a $100 item.  Do you REALLY think an anonymous seller is going to honor his 90 day warranty?  It's a gamble.  Win some, lose some or sue him on Judge Judy.  I have over $500 worth from various sellers from various places that are useless. I even have some from legit sites (raise.com) but at least they have a real warranty ... of course you pay 90% for that privilege.

1397  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Gift cards - $100 for $6! (CHEAP) on: February 07, 2016, 10:22:52 PM
Firstly, the fix was likely applied to all gift cards purchased prior to them disabling the use of gift cards online. Secondly, your purchased gift card did not have multiple IP addresses checking its balance from different states. Neither did whatever vpn you use tried checking balance of more than one card. Nothing you did constitutes exploit that would have triggered them freezing your account. Also, they could simply ask what card, or last 4 of the card number you purchased it with to verify. Clearly, their customer service would need more than just "this card was given to me by a friend" to unfreeze any cards involved in the exploit.
  You obviously didn't understand what I was saying but it really doesn't matter.  Bottom line ..... DOA
1398  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Gift cards - $100 for $6! (CHEAP) on: February 06, 2016, 08:31:26 PM
Regardless, this has been patched. On top of the captcha, which would have been an easy by pass anyway, they now added an auto freeze security that freezes all gift cards when adding/checking balance that doesn't match the geographical origin where that card was bought with the ip addig/checking it. And in case anyone did legitimately buy the card elsewhere and checked the balance, customer service will unfreeze it as long as you have the pin. No more scammers. And no, just because you scammed people, doesn't mean other people in the same business are scamming lowlife like you bossman.

I have to slightly disagree with you with how Panera "fixed" their problem.  I just purchased a REAL e-gift card directly from Panera's website and had it emailed to me and there was no pin provided, just a card number so there is no way they could ask for a PIN to verify legitimacy.  None of their E-gifts ever had pins if any cards did it was only the physical cards purchased in store so that verification method would not seem to be correct.  I then checked the balance from the US and then a VPN in Europe and it is still good however it does show "PIN VERIFIED CREDIT" on their website when I look at the card.  None of the cards (either zeroed or with a balance) show any purchase method whether they have a balance on them or are ZERO other than the one I actually paid for.
1399  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Gift cards - $100 for $6! (CHEAP) on: February 06, 2016, 03:34:04 AM
Panera Bread has the worst security ever. The problem with these egifts is that you can have more then 10 owners for one card. I sold a lot of panera bread eGift then I got really greedy and re sold the same codes I already sold then did it again to the codes I sold that was unused. I basically sold my whole batch 3 times just to earn as much money as possible for one code. Panera Bread is scammers galore. You sell it to one guy then turn around and sell same code to another man then another man. Panera Bread needs to up their security..maybe I lied and made up this whole story who cares?


So you are admitting you INTENTIONALLY resold the same cards THREE TIMES in order to INTENTIONALLY scam buyers "because you were greedy."  Brilliant move (both doing it and putting it "in writing.").
1400  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Panera Gift cards - $100 for $6! (CHEAP) on: February 06, 2016, 03:31:37 AM
I have about 30 cards remaining that I have purchased from various sellers over the last few months (and I have used up at least that many) from here, on Bitify and even Raise.com.  Yesterday they all "checked" good.  Today over 1/2 half of them are ZERO$ balance and the rest are OK however NONE of them show the initial load transaction on them as they usually do or any actual purchases.   

Not sure if I want to use them in-store or have friends or family do the same.
