Wow, so much bad advice in this thread. All from sig spammers, so that's to be expected. The legal consequences of spending coins which do not belong to you is that you're stealing them. If the owner of the coins can track you down (which is likely, since they can probably determine which exchange the coins were sent to, and the exchange will reveal your identity in response to a court order), you may be arrested and/or sued. You must contact the exchange and inform them of the error, so that they may attempt to identify the sender and return the coins. Depending on your jurisdiction you may be allowed to keep the coins if the owner cannot be found, but only if you have made a good faith effort to find them.




Is a site for buying and selling ONLY WITH THE SITE , is not a trading site in to particulars , the SITE buy and sell bitcoins and profit with the exchange diference, there is no phisica sender. (sorry i dont say the page, for security razons, while I think what to do. seems to me the BTC world is not so big and every owner of BTC sites has an acount in a forum like this)

I have an account on a page that buys and sells " bitcoin " . I never made ​​a deposit , and recently see a deposit of 4.19  bitcoins . I do not know the sender. What should I do?. What are the legal consecuencies if i spend it?

Withdraw it now.

Put it into a btc address that you alone control.

Leave it sit still and wait for contact.

Do not spend it and do not give it back to anyone with out a lot of proof they sent it to you.

what you suggest is correct, if you contact the exchange and if are not able to find the user who sent they may also try to block you address and keep the bitcoin with them, so it is better to withdraw it in your other wallet address and then try to contact your wallet support and before giving it back get enough proof because anyone come and tell that the bitcoins belong to him with fake proofs .

On what site? Can you provide a transaction id for the deposit? There are probably no legal consequences of spending the Bitcoin, but just to be safe, you should probably contact the site's support.




that was my first intention , but : what happens if they take advantage of the situation and stay with the bitcoins ?
