Hello everyone! I just wanted to post an update on the situation. Currently me and Klovishey have worked something out and everything is looking good. It seems like I was a bit nervous and that we just both had fears and communication issues. There is no chargeback going through anymore, although I dont want people to worry I am protected if anything goes wrong. Klovishey has been talking to me all night and seems very willing to work with me and like they truly are a good person. I will keep you all updated as it progresses but everything is truly looking good! I have high hopes this will finish smoothly for the both of us now that tensions have gone down. Thank you all for your concern and I will keep you all updated.  Yeah, you're getting scammed. |

I'm baffled why people lock themselves into a certain payment type prior to buying Bitcoin. IMHO it's best to remain liquid to accommodate the desired payment method of the seller.

Well, I guess I trusted in the person. And that was a huge mistake. Now I have to wait for their response. Maybe they will actually give me my coins.
If you could have a free $600+ and all it would require is for you to create a brand new account on Bitcointalk.org, wouldn't you? |

Scammer. User wants you to send first and ceases all communication once escrow is mentioned.

You may want to consider making this a fiat loan instead of Bitcoin since you'll have to pay for your medication in fiat anyway. Plus, if you accept PayPal for this loan, you'll leave potential lenders an option of recollecting their funds.

Your best bet is to open an account at Coinbase.com or Circle.com and attach your bank account. After the approval process, you'll be able to buy all the Bitcoin you want with funds straight out of your account. It's safe, simple, and you don't expose yourself to fraud. I hope this helps  |

I'm also givinf the account for u to cash out your self
Withdraw cash yourself and deposit into the sellers account, or sign up to Circle.com. Stop being lazy. |

Just make an account on Circle.com and you can buy BTC with funds from your bank account. Either that, or withdraw cash and do cash deposit.
|

I will Go first I promise
Cash deposit. Withdraw the money, then deposit the cash into the seller's account. Don't be lazy. |

Buyer beware. This is very likely a scam.

Why would the accounts even stop working to begin with?

There's two possibilities that will play out here:
1. You're a scammer who will disappear once you get 1 BTC
2. You're going to get scammed by another newbie account who will insist that you send PayPal first, using the reasoning that "you can always reverse payment if I don't pay you the 1 BTC." However, what happens is that you send the PayPal payment and he'll start stalling while he's busy offloading that money into cold hard cash. By the time you get around to processing a reversal the money is long gone.
You can avoid #2 by using a trusted escrow, such as myself, to hold the 1 BTC before you send payment. Of course that doesn't prevent you from reversing the charge later.

On the other side of that coin, you're going to get PMs from newbie users offering to sell you BTC for your PayPal. They're going to want you to send PayPal payment first, using the excuse that "you can always reverse payment if I don't send you the coins." What will end up happening is that you will not receive the coins you paid for, but they'll keep stalling while they're busy offloading that payment into cash. By the time you get around to processing a reversal, the money is long gone. You can avoid this by having them put their Bitcoins into escrow before you send your Paypal (they'll never do this, which is a telltale sign that you're dealing with a scammer). PM me if you need me to escrow any deals for you.

I can escrow any large'ish (say 1000+ BTC) deals. Hit me up in pm if you find a seller.

Why would these even "go bad"? I've never had a gift card that I've purchased myself go bad, ever.

Please post links to his Bitcointalk.org profile(s).

For something like this, (dare I say it?) PayPal might be better to use than Bitcoin since you're really needing analog money to begin with.
