guys, trading bitcoins using paypal is against their tos, regardless of how it happens (CDs, online, carrier pigeon etc.)
paypal also does graphing (analysis of the links between users, as far as six degrees of separation etc.) if one of your trading partners is known to paypal as a bitcoin trader, you will become part pf the graph as well etc.
long story short: DO NOT keep paypal and bitcoin in the same pocket. it leaks...
sooner or later your account will be frozen.
True... My 3 accounts have been frozen  |

Nope, I dont lose 8 btc.
I had sent 4 btc in clear coin, with refund back to me (luckily!)
Hence, I should get back my coins after 1 month.

He said he is taking half payment since he doesn't have positive feedback to prove his credibility.
I enquired with dhl, they confirmed they always provide tracking number.

This guy doesnt seem legitimate.
He offered me ipone4 for 8 btc, which I accepted.
He even posted pictures of the phone.
He wanted half direct payment and half clearcoin.
Luckily, I sent first half to clear coin..
He then replied he has shipped the phone but doesnt have tracking number.

I believe op, maybe he has a time machine, so he takes your $1.5k and fly back 1 year or 2, and invest on some digital coins OoOoOo LOL |

Price seems to have fallen more and stabilized at 15.
Is this the real bitcoin price?

I have been observing price on mtgox.com through bitcoinwatch.com, and it doesnt seem to vary too much.
Has the price settled?
Or is mtgox not working, since I notice volume is decreasing consistently?
Or is there very less interest now in bitcoin which has led to low volume?
Any thoughts?

It seems you have both been the victim of a very clever and well-executed scam. To give away the ending, it was a man-in-the-middle attack by a 3rd person. The scam was so good, in fact, that no one here seems to be able to recognize what actually happened. Sit back and listen as I recreate the scene: 0. The scammer (pork_) recognizes that #bitcoin-otc has a very serious flaw and sets out to exploit it to make a quick 20BTC for free. 1. The scammer (pork_) advertises that he wants to buy BTC on the #bitcoin-otc channel, and tiner contacts him about a sale 2. The scammer (pork_) and tiner agree to the terms of the sale, and tiner gives him his PayPal address so pork_ can send the payment 3. This part is crucial: The scammer (pork_) now has a limited amount of time to find a buyer to complete the scam. To give himself some time, he says: "<pork_> ill be a few minutes" 4. The scammer now goes into the channel using a different nick (let's call it "h___"), and advertises that he wants to sell some BTC for cheap (to get a buyer quickly) 5. jacker224 contacts the scammer (h___) and offers to buy the BTC 6. The scammer (h___) tells jacker224 to send the money to tiner's paypal address, and jacker224 does so 7. The scammer (pork_) tells tiner that he sent the payment, when in actuality it was jacker224 who sent the payment 8. tiner verifies that he has received the money, and sends the BTC to the scammer (pork_). As far as tiner is concerned, the transaction was 100% legit. 9. The scammer (h___) leaves his conversation with jacker224 without sending ever him the BTC But how does jacker224 contacts tiner? Do you mean scammer logs in with tiner as nick (and not h___)? |
