DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SITE

I just registered with this bitcointalk because I bought some bitcoins at that site $100 worth and the company won't reply or give me the coins since purchase Feb 28. And the transaction says From Non-US Unverified. But on the site it has a US address.
Watch out!


^^I sent to a Non-US but verified on THE DAY of me sending the payment. I had a chance to cancel the payment, sigh.

Use this site to check for Paypal verified status:

Its been a week with no communication. I should have cancelled the payment when I had the chance :-(
The minimum is $50 (notice where my "$" is also). I sent $53, so there goes the minimum theory.

CryptoScholar many thanks for sharing your bad experience, it'll help the others !! I wanted to buy btc through them, also.

Interesting:

www.bitodex.com    (commission 3%)
Bitodex, Inc.
689 Mission St
San Francisco, CA 94103

www.bitin.co    (commission 1%)
BitIn Inc.
795 Folsom St, Suite 41
San Francisco, CA 94107

Same exact here situation with BitIn.Co.
I seriously feel like trying to wiggle my way through filing a "Unauthorized transaction" report.

Scammers don't even bother replying....Been there, done that literally!....Will only consider trade with sellers that are trusted or have some type of history.

Edit: Close this thread, no longer needed.

This shows BiPolarBob sent me .1 btc
I hereby agree to repayment within a maximum period of 2 weeks, in which no interest will be incurred and with no collateral obligation.

BiPolarBob, I PMd you. If you are serious, I ask what are the terms of repayment?
49  Economy / Lending / Re: Asking: .1 BTC with partial repayment/collateral on: June 20, 2014, 05:22:25 PM
if people have collateral why bother loan
makes no sense.

but good luck Smiley

When I started reading more....I started asking myself the same question.

Example:
Say a person requires 2 btc loan and the person requires 100% collateral in an altcoin or such.
The lendee gets the equivalent amount of BTC in LTC as collateral.
Why wouldn't the lendee just try to convert LTC to BTC instead??

Please excuse my ignorance.


Sidenote: For the second time in my PP's account history.....I have opened a dispute for a bitcoin related purchase......And for reference, Paypal did refund last time I was scammed, albeit it years ago.

First, because you believe in LTC and think that its value will rise. Second, trading requires trading fees and tx fees.

Ah, I see.
An altcoin collateral tied loan would make no sense in my situation.

Someone lending to a newbie without collateral wouldn't make any sense either.

Semi-agreeable statement.
Depending on the situation, I think the word that better fits is irrational....So, its maybe lacking clear or concise sense, but certainly not completely void of sense.
And I say that because lending is a situational thing and can vary if the lender is amenable to an extent.

You must provide collateral for 110-120% of the loan minimum. Also fiat could cause problems... paypal hates bitcoins.

Yes, I now see how the lending process is now. Different from years back, but I can understand why such requirements are more prevalent now.
And Yes, I'm fully aware of PP and BTC. Thankfully, my PP account, which probably has been grandfathered into a lot of policies, hasn't gotten the sub-zero treatment yet.

I'm going to talk to the few sellers I know and see what I can work out. Possibly find some empathy among them.

Going to give this a shot.

I had a WTB thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=658443.0

98% positive the transaction I did will end up being a scam, since I have yet to receive my btc, nor anymore correspondence from the seller.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=333926

I have a small balance still left in my PP account, but not enough to cover the full amount for .1 btc again.

I am asking for a loan of .1 btc.
Collateral/Partial repayment: I will send you an agreed amount of USD as collateral to keep for the duration of the loan and eventually it will count toward the repayment.
Loan Duration: 2 weeks max. (July 3rd, 2014).

Thread halt...of course it didn't fall through.

Reference my new given feedback
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=333926
Who is truongs? I noticed they did business with Melds39, who is a known scammer from Reddit.

Definitely an scammer alias I figure....

I'm in the middle of negotiating, as long as it doesn't fall through, this thread will most likely be closed soon.

1. This is not my first rodeo (save the PayPal speech, I know it already)......I have bought BTC countless of times via my same PP account since 2012.

WTB .1 BTC for PPusd
