1  Economy / Currency exchange / WTB BTC on: April 12, 2013, 05:30:54 PM
I would like someone to help me buy some BTC - I have Dwolla. 

Will trade for a Mt. Gox Coupon for equivalent amount (1:1), minus maybe a fee.

Thanks.

PM.
2  Other / Beginners & Help / CC => BTC on: April 10, 2013, 02:26:57 AM
As we all know/read CC => BTC is about as tricky a business as any.

Scammers are rampant and chargeback folk are just as nasty.

However, as with anything new...something needs to give.  My buddies and I are looking to try something similar to this, so I thought it might be a good idea to see what ideas everyone here might have regarding security and identification.

So I've classified the "enemy" into two categories:

1) Stolen CC's

2) Chargeback people (dishonest folk)

I'll try to map out some security measures to address each of these, and hopefully you guys can add more.  It'd be nice to help legitimate people exchange CC => BTC.

1)

Stolen CC's. 

We will be utilizing:

CVV2 Authentication
Address Verification

We will also utilize a 2-factor authentication (Authy) which texts their cell phone.
Finally, as Mt.Gox and other exchanges require (for verification), we may require a photo ID (picture taken and sent in)





2)

Chargeback folk that deny ever receiving the funds.

The best that we can do here is to utilize blockchain.info to prove that the transaction took place and that the BTC was indeed transferred.

We will also document our actions for transfer to make sure we are transferring to their provided wallet (after all CC approval checks out).


Any other ideas/suggestions would be very welcome!

Thanks!

Hopefully the vast majority of us honest folk would benefit from something like this (see BitInstant hating over on the next thread).
