Do you have jerky without beef?

How about some chicken breasts without the chicken?  Grin

LBC Told me there was nothing  they can do.. I'm almost 99.9 percent sure I didn't click a phishing link.. Says my account was failed login 22 times yesterday... If he had my password then there wouldn't be 20 failed login across the us something isn't adding up.. Don't wanna bash LBC.. but someone is hacking there shit and they will never admit it.. And I'm out 435 bucks :/

I didn't expect LBC to do anything about this. It's 100% user fault. Imagine if every time you lost your coins and they had to reimburse you; this opens a lot of opportunity for abuse.

It only took 20 tries to log in? That's some weaksauce password. It's more likely that the thief already had your PW and tried variations to hit the correct one.

It sets a horrible precedent.

we will wait until tomorrow and see

What else did you expect? He has been in large debt for months (and it's not just with me). Not sure why you PM'ed me to ask about him when nothing I said mattered anyways.
624  Other / Meta / Re: Normalize Trust display across subforums on: September 08, 2014, 06:55:12 AM
I actually disagree. Trust score should only be displayed when relevant, such as any subforum that involves transaction (marketplace) and beginner area where newbs take advantage of newbs. However any subforum that is mainly discussion should not display trust score because that will make people biased, even if it's subconscious. Posts from people in red will carry less weight than the ones in green, which is a bit unfair for these guys, when someone's trust should not be relevant when it comes to a general discussion.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not in support of scammers, but some people are red because only because they had an argument with someone else, not because they actually screwed someone over.
625  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: selling up to 20btc @ $500 on: September 07, 2014, 10:40:12 PM
I totally want to buy your 10btc, but today. Can you make this possible?

All 10btc already sold. 5btc just sent to edd in advance. I might still be willing to sell some, but for you I can't send first until I confirm the cash is received.
626  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTB] Prepaid VISA in bitcoin on: September 07, 2014, 10:48:42 AM
I have a $50 prepaid visa I will sell for btc. PM me.

Not trying to thread-jack but does this card have a PIN you enter, or is it one of those shitty rebate ones that don't come with PINs? If OP does not take your offer, I might if it's one of those PIN ones.
627  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Visited my first Bitcoin ATM in Chicago today on: September 07, 2014, 10:42:27 AM
Awesome! I have yet to experience my first bitcoin ATM. It's nice that this one did not make you privide Drivers License or scan fingerprints. It seems easy enough, although I see the 1 confirmation thing a pretty big turnoff for the mainstream. If people want their cash right away, they will not wait an average of 10 minutes.

The exchange rate seems reasonable enough. Was that 5% fee added on top of the displayed exchange rate?
628  Economy / Goods / Re: buy beef with bitcoins on: September 07, 2014, 10:35:25 AM
I should have jerky available by October 5th. Any interest?

I'm interested in some jerky. Any way to make it nitrate-free? These will probably be eaten right away, so no need for preservatives. I personally don't mind the nitrate, but the women here says it's a no no :/
629  Economy / Digital goods / Re: [WTS] $50 Amazon gift card. Need btc fast. on: September 07, 2014, 10:18:14 AM
Oh shit, this is not 70% face value, but 70% OFF. Can you make it $1 instead?
630  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Money was stolen out of my localbitcoins account on: September 07, 2014, 10:01:27 AM
you need 2fa to log in and withdraw coins but not to release from escrow. that is the prerogative 0f the seller/buyer.

Yes, you do need 2FA to release from escrow. At least on my account you need that. I just checked and there was no option to choose when 2FA will be used.
631  Other / Off-topic / Re: I have 30 days to live. on: September 07, 2014, 09:16:24 AM
We should always live as if we had only 30 days to live.

In principle, however it doesn't actually work like this. If you only had 30 days to live, you'd sped those 30 days a lot differently than your every other day.
632  Other / Off-topic / Re: People with best and worst trusts on: September 07, 2014, 09:04:52 AM

Don't waste your time seeking worse trust than Trade Fortress. Dank has less than 10% of his negative trust.

TF only "lost" about 4k coins.  Compare that to the likes of BFL's Josh Zerlan:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=8198

Yifu Gao from Avalon:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=68196

If there was one that should be the bloodiest red of all it would be Pirate@40 - still the biggest con in the history of Bitcoin.

You can also add that pig Mark Krapeleez on the list. IMO that was a bigger hit to the community compared to Pirate's scam. Most average Joe will not know of the Pirate incident, but everyone knows about the downfall of mtgox, even people that aren't even involved with the btc community.

I actually still have some of the Pig's PM's from 2011 in my inbox regarding a scam. Such irony.
633  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Chargeback victim, if you live in Orlando you can have a free laptop on: September 07, 2014, 08:44:59 AM
Ouch, sorry to hear for your loss. Very similar thing happened to me on where scumbag filed a chargeback with his bank, I lost the money and item. What was his reason for the paypal dispute, and why did you give him a partial refund? You need to give all evidence to paypal, they will pass that on to his bank because you have absolutely no way to deal directly with his bank.
634  Economy / Lending / Re: Offering BTC loans [no collateral] on: September 07, 2014, 06:51:57 AM
Haploid I would've been more careful here. Sounds like a young guy and most young guys have fakes like myself for bars and such. Not saying you'll get screwed but you can also buy an ID photo for $10 on the darkweb. I hope you get paid back here but a lot of redflags signaled by this guy's comments.

Thanks for the warning, I was well aware. I was on the fence about this one, but he gave 2 forms of ID and a mugshot holding his ID. I'm not saying there's not chance of him running, but less likely to do so if his face and name is exposed. 2 other red flags, but I won't list here.



I would like to loan 100mBTC to purchase some service.
Preferred interest rate of 15% would be nice to start off given my lack of + rating.
Denied. You're already borrowing from someone.


Can you give me 0.1 BTC loan for 3 days (after i notify of receipt) ?
Denied. No gambling loans for someone with no trust.
635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FBI Reveals Exactly How They Hacked Silk Road on: September 07, 2014, 05:09:37 AM
I don't buy this either. It sounds like an extremely simplified version so the nubs in court can understand, but I'm sure the hack job was much more stringent.
636  Economy / Lending / Re: Need $60, will pay back $90 within two weeks on: September 07, 2014, 05:01:16 AM
I'll loan you this amount with paypal's goods/services payment. In 2 weeks you can send back the loan in btc or cash.
637  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Money was stolen out of my localbitcoins account on: September 07, 2014, 04:40:54 AM
You might have clicked on a phising link a while back and the scammer just waits dormant until you have a large transaction. Why didn't you activate 2FA? It would prevent this kind of stuff. You can even give out your user name and PW, but no one will be able to withdraw unless they have your personal device.
2FA does not work quite that well (at least not all the time). There are always potential ways around 2FA on websites. I would consider it to be reckless if someone is careless about their password simply because 2FA is enabled. 2FA should only be an additional security method, not the only security measure.

Yes but I don't think this applies to LBC, which is the case with OP. You need 2FA to log in, withdraw coins, or release coins from escrow. Basically anything that involves movement of coins needs 2FA. To disable the 2FA, you'd have to have access to it in the first place.
638  Other / Meta / Re: Site owners on: September 07, 2014, 02:49:16 AM
I just have a feeling the issue is not that important. Probably about being butt-hurt about something a staff member did.
639  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Amazon gift cards for sale on: September 07, 2014, 01:37:04 AM
Sight... here we go again. Is there even any point in asking if these are legit, and to show proof?
640  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: selling up to 10btc @ $500 on: September 07, 2014, 01:12:03 AM
I will be able to do this on a bi-weekly basis for you. We can discuss the rate if interested but unfortunately cannot pay above current going market rates.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=768640.0

Then it looks like we won't be able to agree on rates. I looked at your thread, and I definitely can't do -5%.



I invite to you to sell us E-currency and Cryptocurrency. Our reserve in this week is: 10,000 USD available to buy to our Sellers. !

Sorry, I don't trust any newbie exchanges to hold this money btc or money. Money new exchanges go out along with people's money/btc.
