This type of scam is pretty common with ads on google as shown above.
Sadly google does little to nothing to catch potential phishing attempts and instead lets them target the very name of the website they're phishing as a keyword.

It's also ridiculous how they're made to appear similar to a legitimate search result.
If you've got 2 minutes, feel free to report this phishing here if you've gotten the same results:
https://support.google.com/google-ads/contact/vio_other_aw_policy

Hopefully google will act soon.

Thankyou....report sent!

Please note that the seller must accept a guarantor service, I will not send the money directly.

i.e. I send money to a third party (trusted user on this forum) and seller sends the coin to me, once I confirm the delivery the third party sends the money to the seller. I will pay the fee for the guarantor service.
For the safety I will record a video of receiving and opening the parcel, and inspecting the hologram.

Also we could just have a personal meeting for the deal Smiley I live in South-East Asia, we could meet in some big hub like Singapore or Hong Kong airport.

It usually works that buyer sends BTC to escrow like minerjones, then seller sends coin to minerjones ( not you). As soon as he receives coin from seller he forwards on the bitcoin ( minus 1%), and then forwards on the coin.

EDIT: also note insurance is impossible on bitcoins, I use the above method to import into Australia frequently, but if it gets lost/ stolen in the mail after escrow forwards you the coin, you are shit out of luck, and will lose your bitcoin.

Interesting Krog, that's more inline with what the OP suggested initially than what I said. The issue I take with that, as a seller, is you would be assuming a lot of extra risk in sending an international shipment. If customs does steal it, or DHS lose it etc, what happens to the escrow? Does buyer get back escrow unless shipment says delivered? Means seller takes postage/customs risk instead of buyer. I wouldn't sell under those conditions, not that I ever do sell, I am a buyer only, but I always assume the risk as a buyer importing it into another country, especially one with customs who like to steal shit.

  I personally would not trust anything in the mail with a value of  0.5btc or over. For that an in person meet comes in mind or send by a crypto courier.
  For anything in the 0.2 btc range and lower I will send fedex overnight.

  The visual aid is just help in visually showing how escrow works...for any item. Does not mean I agree or disagree with anyones comments

As a rule....whenever I send any amount of btc over a certain amount...I always send a test of 0.001btc.

Once the receiver confirms getting the BTC, I send the rest. Whether you use a priv note or not, this will prevent you from sending the btc to the wrong address.

I also have person send me btc addy thru two different channels... example..email and slack privnote or text. Compare....test sample send and voila send the rest.


No man in the middle
attack worries either

I just poked around and they are the same thing. The BTChip is the Ledger HW.1 (or BTChip turned into Ledger), either way, it's the same thing.

I totally forgot about that, for more information just read their original ANN topic.



As a matter of fact, I do happen to have an extra HW.1 somewhere. If I can find it, I'll message you.

Thankyou sir

I've never ever seen that before, but it reminds me a lot of the Ledger HW.1. Very interesting.

 I believe it pre dates that. https://www.coindesk.com/btchip-launches-multi-signature-usb-bitcoin-wallet

Curious question for the couriers... Would you have to legally declare this coin if you're travelling with it internationally as the value is over $10,000?

I don't see why they would need to as it's not their property. They are simply delivering from point A to B even though they may need to hit a point C in the middle of all that. Perhaps someone else can chime in but the couriers don't own the property so I genuinely don't think they need to declare a thing. In this case, they're really no different than a FedEx or USPS guy/gal at your door delivering your package! Again just my 2bits!

iBHK8

Who owns the property is irrelevant.  Customs declaration varies by country and it boils down to what you are carrying, not necessarily who owns it.  If you are entering the US/EU the declaration form lists "monetary instruments".  A loaded crypto collectible is effectively a bearer-negotiable monetary instrument but since countries haven't legally made that distinction yet and the forms do not specifically list "cryptocurrency", you have room for not declaring it.  Some countries have classified Bitcoin as property and you don't declare your $20,000 Rolex when entering a country.  Countries are slow and have only recently gotten around to classifying gold coins as cash.  But that doesn't mean that customs can't choose to make your life hard, including going as far as to confiscate it, forcing you to spend time/money to get it back.  Some countries are more corrupt than others.
  
Your best chance for success is for the collectible to not stand out from your other property.  I'm curious what steps the couriers here are taking to ensure the item gets through customs without drawing scrutiny.  I'm also interested to hear from people like Bobby Lee who have traveled internationally with loaded physical crypto coins.




  Then it goes without saying a Trezor or hardwallet will be treated in the same way.

  If it goes that way...then memorize the mnemonic seed...wipe the Trezor clean...and you have nothing to declare..then just place the mnemonic seed upon arrival at destination.

  Or even better...don't take trezor with you.....arrive at destination...buy a new trezor and input the mnemonic seed...voila!  Wink  God bless Satoshi!

ahh i thought they all would have been sold - which would increase the chances of getting one via trade or sale - if there were leftovers not sold, yes that would make it more difficult. thank you!

I guess only yogg can answer this properly

  I believe any unsodl coldkeys would listed and be available thru his website https://www.coldkey.eu/shop/
