I sold my Bitcoins through Paypal Friends and Family payment thinking it would be "safe".
I was TOTALLY wrong.
The scammer issued a chargeback claiming it as "unauthorized purchase".
I sent all the chat logs and the screenshot of the Paypal payment from the buyer and the receipt from Paxful including PGP signature, but I doubt if I will ever win.
Feels so sad that this BS has happened in the end of the year.
I'm stuck between either paying the chargeback or closing my bank account and debit card, never using Paypal again.
Paybal banned crypto related purchases so you have be trapped here by that scammer.This is the biggest risk of using p2p trading platforms even the onw who has more positive feedbacks might be involved in these kind of scams if the money involved is huge.Paxful will block the scammers account for sure and if there is any bitcoin left the scammer will give you the bitcoin or money but I doubt there won't be any dust on the scammer's paxful wallet. I did experienced the same kind of scam in LBC few months back but luckily the money involved is just about $80 but the scammer lost his 0.05 BTC on his lbc wallet and still frozen by the staffs of LBC.  |

ENG got all out for 268,the match could be won if the players respected the good balls.  Deserved win for south Africa after the excellent performance by their bowlers and good contribution from the batting partners as well. When the England openers started really well i thought they will fight till the end but they lost all the wickets for 176 runs after reaching 92 runs for the first wicket and that shows how weak their Test team is, the rest of the members are filled with T20 and ODI specialist and that is the problem as they are not able to stay in the crease for a long time and come up with consistent performance in the longer version. Losing wickets too early on a test match shows how inexperienced players were playing for them which is the team found the cricket.They need to have experience along with skills to play longer format of the cricket hope they will swap the team on next match and will find the better combination. |

^ 6th wicket down, can South African bowlers expose the tails of ENG?
Possibly yes, if they make it possible will greatly boost the confidence for their further matches in 2020.

How many of you watching this game? Its keep getting interesting ball after ball, spell after spell Ben stokes out, England is 4 down now and need 168 runs . They have 3 recognized batsmen left Root,Bairstow, Buttler. I am not watching this game,but I am seeing the scores too often since the match is getting more excited.RSA really have a chance if they can tempt ENG tails to play strokes than defending balls. |

England only need 255 runs to win. They have lost only one wicket and have the full day to chase this target which is less than 6 runs an over. Personally I think this achievable, if England does not lose quick wickets. The target looks acheiavable considering that England have 9 wickets in hand but anything can happen in a match and we all saw how they struggled in the first innings and went on to loose wickets at regular interval and who knows that might not happen again, either way it is a reachable target and hope the England players could somehow win the match, there will be only two outcome in this match, England can defend and loose their wickets or go for the win. As expected OZ won the match very easily by 247 runs and only thing NZ would be happy is that Blundell made century and played well for 121 runs. With this NZ lost the series as already down by 2-0 in 3 test match . Travis was the player of the match. At least NZ try to avoid the complete qhitewash by giving some real effort to win the next match which is about to happen between Jan 02 and 06.
On the other match, Can england get another 255 to win the match?Looks easy but let's wait and see. |

England started really well and they are giving a good fight for the South African bowlers, they just lost their first wicket and if they are able to build partnership like these then they have a fighting chance to win the match as Jose Butler has given them some thrilling wins in the past and if they can take the team closer to the target then they have a long batting line up to challenge the South African team, it all depends how the pitch behaves in the last two days.
121/1 and 5 overs left today. Early Stump Tension for SA and big relief for England, considering their first inning misadventure but game is 50-50 now. one more good partnership means home run for England and SA need only 1 good spell. Tomorrow's morning will be the right time,if they really wanted to win the match or if the ENG batsmen got settled then they will simply take this match away from them.But I still feel the match got 50/50 side for both the team. |

The gold will crash and Bitcoin will be backing Up USA dollars so USA dollar will be tokenized and each USA dollar will be backed by bitcoins.
The Bitcoin was made to be new age gold so Bitcoin never meant to be money!
Its Coming 2020 and yes that will be happening
Gold price will not crash. Bitcoin will never have a stable value so dollars can't tokenized using bitcoin backed up value. If bitcoin becomes adopted that much then why we need dollars anymore? |

Seems pitch is too hard for making strokes that is why everyone getting out too early,RSA also lost 4 wickets in 20 overs but got a lead of 175.Posting 100 more runs looks like more than enough to take 10 wickets of ENG players.
Good to see the bowlers dominating, 24 wickets within 2 days and if you are not having the perfect defesive technique then you wont be able to bat in pitches like these and that is what we are seeing in this match, stroke players cannot survive in this pitch and hence the England batsman were struggling and none could make an impact and if South Africa is able to make a lead of over 250 then it will be a good total to defend, with the way the match is going it will get over before the fifth day. T20 changed the players a lot from the past,even ODI played like t20 and test gone into level of ODI that is why more wickets going down in these days.Missing players like Rahul Dravid who has been the big wall for India whenever they need to defend the balls for too long. |

Poor England lol All out 181 and SA end up with 103 runs. well they say cricket is game of unpredictability. few months back SA bowlers were looking toothless, now look at them. eating English breakfast all day long Its seems to me that we don't have to wait 5 days for any result. Vernon Philander playing his last series has taken a liking for the England batsman, 14.2 overs 8 maidens and gave away just 16 runs and picked 4 wickets and that is some extra ordinary bowling and the batsman were struggling with the line and length like how South African batsman were struggling in the first innings and if South Africa can play well and put a good total on board then the match wont last 5 days as this is the second day and two innings are done  .

The way SA bowlers have come up and started bowling this seems to be a good start for SA as 3 wickets down for just 96 and of Danley continues to bat well and make century then scenario may differ and England would be back again in the lead.
ENG managed to build good partnership for wicket three and four* after 2 early wickets now trailing by 142 runs with 7 wickets in hand they have more chance to beat the first innings score and take the upper hand on this match. |

How in the world is NZ rated 2nd in the test rankings? Australians are decimating them at the moment and I feel Australia deserves a far higher ranking in comparison. So many Australian batsmen rose to the occasion in the ongoing match.
Currently they are in 5th rank on ICC test team table but they got rating 102 same as team 3 and 4 so number of matches affected their rank but its not really much important any team could change their entire position with the ability of players. |

AUS scored huge first innings score of 467 and now NZ started a bit shaky since they lost their first wicket and scoring at 28/1,very few overs remaining for the stumps so better they have to keep their wickets and starts fresh on day 3 and then start scoring more.

Not sure, if anyone noticing slow over rate. for quite some time teams keep repeating this. every team delaying overs, same thing happened today in SA vs Eng. first day stump and 7 overs short. ICC need to do something about it. % of fees is not affecting captains at all and teams are not taking this seriously.
Captains will be fined in these scenarios normally if the match goes for final over and final day but most of the matches not getting last longer so ICC didn't consider it much though.300 looks completely possible the final tail could get there with another 23 runs on the boards and not to mention the avg first innings score on that ground is just 328 so they are getting nearly par. |

They are retired for good and South Africa need to find the right balance, i saw some performance in the warm up game but that did not happen in this match and Quinton de Kock is still in the crease and they are trying to build a partnership now along with Pretorius and hope they can bat for a longer period of time. They are inching closer to 200, with 5 wickets in hand. On his test debut, Dwaine Pretorius is giving good support to Quinton de Kock (the latter is having a strike rate of 93 now). Jofra Archer has gone for almost 5 runs per over and has failed to take any wickets. He had a really bad series against New Zealand (in two tests, he took 2 wickets after conceding 209 runs) and it looks like his bad form is continuing. 208 for 6 and de kock is still in the crease so reaching anywhere near 300 would be a fighting total from now on to RSA,hope they could play at least for entire today to achieve it and need much help from tails too.Its too early to say this match will be easy win for ENG because the pitch will remain same nearly for second day as well so same scenarios might happen to them as well. |

ICC was proposing the T-20 world cup every year and ODI World cup every 3 year. call it dick move or smart move but its not rocket science that ICC wanted to grab the global media rights (2023-2028) and guess who was the bigger loser? I am not sure about this, and I don't know how reliable this information is. Unless the same appears on the ICC website or at least on espncricinfo, I am going to regard it as mere rumor. Hosting the T20 World Cup every year is not practical and it doesn't make any sense. How can a world cup be conducted every year? The same goes for the ODI world cup as well. Ever since 1979, the tournament is being conducted on a 4-yearly basis, and I don't think that they are going to change that all of a sudden. BTW, one of the reasons given in the article is wrong. Check this: I did read the same news few months earlier but don't know is this just a rumour or not but BCCI have a reason to propose that because BCCI can influence ICC even and also they will get big chunk of ptofit share compared to other cricket boards so more matches more money that is simple to understand. |

Marnus Labuschagne just got out, after hitting a half century. New Zealand looking very competitive here, and they have taken three wickets so far. The return of Trent Boult seems to have helped the Kiwis (he got a wicket in his very first over). Steve Smith is at crease with Matthew Wade, and the fall of one more wicket would put the Australians under a lot of pressure. BTW, there were indications that Mitchell Swepson may make his debut, but for now the selectors have stuck with Nathan Lyon.
So far so good for both teams,175 for 3 in 60 overs and smith got his 50 and still digging the crease more of much longer innings.Wade also taking his time looks AUS get preparing them for big scores. |

I am also looking forward to see how RSA will perform in this tour because their recent form is not good as how they were been in the past so they need something big to show the international teams about their ability to win matches and home ground could be a little advantage for them.Both squads looks same but only their form differs to be honest.
What is the situation of Ben Stokes, will he be playing in the match because there is no clarity regarding whether he will be playing in the match and if he is not in the team then it will be difficult for England too as he is the main player for England and in the warm up match the batsman were scoring runs from both sides and it all depends upon the pitch and for South Africa Bavuma is out due to injury and they have some uncapped players and some may make their debut too, so it is an interesting match. Ben Stokes is in the squad for the tomorrow's match so I guess he will be playing. He is much needed All rounder for ENG because he can bat as complete batsman and also bowl any number of overs if needed but RSA lacking that kind of player will be a blow. |

Boxing Day Test...
1. Aus vs Nz
2. SA vs Eng
Both are good contest but i am more interested in SA vs Eng. it would be interesting to see how Proteas performs at home conditions and under completely new management.
