1  Economy / Scam Accusations / BTCrow.com Escrow Service Fraud on: November 23, 2015, 06:33:11 PM
Thank you in advance for your help bitcointalk.org community!

I am new to bitcoin and had hoped to receive a release of payment into my wallet (via coinbase). BTCrow.com facilitated a website sale with their escrow service. Unfortunately, as I understand, during the escrow process the seller (myself) provides the desired btc address to be paid. In the end of the inspection period + 7 business day wait period (for 'security'), btcrow automatically deposited (without any verification/notification until too late) into an unknown wallet (which they claim has been encrypted/etc & provided by myself):1N8FbnAWjegbUPzFJhnYQx7ECN5V3ec12m
https://blockchain.info/address/1N8FbnAWjegbUPzFJhnYQx7ECN5V3ec12m

1N8FbnAWjegbUPzFJhnYQx7ECN5V3ec12m is not my wallet address, nor is it ANY wallet associated with Coinbase (the only company I have used to create a wallet in 2015). My newbie eye/analysis appears to indicate all funds are long gone.

BTCrow support shares with me that they will fully cooperate with law enforcement and I should contact Police had I be a scam victim. What action should I take?

Best regards,
