All these info. can help the OP and other users to contact the scammer.... I was lucky because I have lent him only 0.035 btc :/ .... very lucky.
She was building up trust across multiple accounts, mostly in the lending section. That was probably the intention with the loan from Neotox however those plans were probably put on hold once people started asking her to sign a message from an old address.
I think both the OP and Neotox are at fault for getting scammed as this was easily preventable simply by using escrow and by asking for valid collateral (or a signed message)
Signed message mean very little. I'm sure some account sellers have no problem handing over private keys to no longer used addresses when they sell their account. False sense of security IMO.
You guys put way to much faith in forum rankings here. Hero or not, unless they have great rep you shouldn't send first or provide no collateral loans. I'm sure this is a lesson well learnt and hopefully won't happen again zazarb.
Most scams are done privately here and a lot fail to report them for several reasons. Those small amounts add up so don't think they won't scam because it's less then the value of their account.
Exactly this...I learned the hard way a year or 2 back when I got scammed by a donator memeber with good trust. It cost me a few
BTC when we were over $800...never again.
