There was at least one episode where you "woke up" after a lengthy period of inactivity and excluded (in your trust list) a number of users who happened to be targets of Quickseller's attacks. That will probably keep raising doubts despite the signed message. If you're now planning to stick around for a while you should review your trust list as it has a different impact than it used to. If you're planning to go inactive again you should consider clearing the list out. What probably happened was I logged in, saw that I had a zillion PMs, then went through them and responded accordingly. I did get quite a few PMs from various people advising me to add so-and-so to my Trust, or exclude someone from it. I didn't really feel like going back and doing months worth of research on the matter, so I probably just made the changes based on whether I liked the sender of the PM. That's why there may have been a bunch of changes on a certain date. Sorry, it's not quite as exciting as the theory of QS being in control of this acct  Anyway, that method of curating my Trust list isn't very scientific or objective, so I'll consider your last bit of advice. However, I'd have to weigh the consequences a bit more carefully before I do. |

Great, do everyone a favour and go back to the place where you were all this time. Your moms? |

Verified. Although accounts have been sold including staked address. Theymos should be able to verify that this is the same IP I've always used, if you need an additional layer of assurance. |

Thanks. Verified ok.
I'm still puzzled by your affiliation with Quickseller but I can't really argue anymore after you signed the message.
Gotta make up for all those Tx fees somehow  Edit: And I'm not associated with QS at all. He seemed pretty chill back in the day, but I haven't really kept up on the forums lately. |

You might want to sign the address that has the coins you want to sell. This should at least demonstrate that you're serious and actually have the coins  |

There’s no way the original Tomatocage is in control of this account any more. Coming back after so long & posting a referral link is out of character.
Take precautions when interacting with the account.
It's me.

urgently selling 50 btc for a scrill or PAYONEER sepa is a very good price to write only on email dmoskvin39@gmail.comFor something like this, you may want to provide evidence of funds, by way of signing the address that holds your 50 BTC. |

You might have some luck with ETHLend, though it requires collateral in the form of coins. |

If you have 10000 bitcoin, what do you do?
Wonder where the hell the rest of my coins went  lol I came in here to post this. /goldmansachselevator |

This appears to have all the telltale signs of a PayPal scam. Here's how it works:
1. The seller will attempt to get you to send first and will steadfastly refuse to use any kind of escrow (or may attempt to get you to use Escrow.com and then spoof the Email in an attempt to get you to send to his own address). He will use the reasoning that you are protected by PayPal, and if he doesn't send you the coins you paid for, you can always dispute the charge to get your money back.
2. Once you send payment he will either disappear completely or stall for time. In this case, the OP has already baked in 1-3 days of time into the deal.
3. During this period the seller will move the funds out of the (stolen) PayPal account and convert it to cold hard cash in his pocket.
4. By the time he is supposed to send you BTC, he is long gone.

You'd be best refraining from giving out negative trust to someone using terms such as "won't escrow" or "use escrow" where you haven't first posted such caution in the thread to the OP where all can see (OP included) that you have first advised the OP of the risk of PayPal (or similar reversible payment methods) and then if the OP rejects the advice slapping a negative might be warranted. Absolutely. That's good advise, but in this case, unfortunately moot. He had already been contacted to find out more details of his terms and insisted that the buyer send first and reputable escrow would not be used. And I hadn't realized that you replied to my PM. I'll have to dig back a few pages as I believe it probably got lost in the PM white noise. |

An hour after Tomatocage posted the previous to this message this newbie signed up. Scammed me of 235usd, do not trust.... Paypal wont refund as i sent as gift.
...and his first post was to try to buy 50 BTCI would like to buy 50btc... PM me
... and no previous messages from this newbie in this thread to make contact. IDK, it *looks* a little sus...  Yeah I'm calling BS on that one too. Looks like someone just reg'd it and thought he'd be cute. Turing56, if you sent him PayPal, what was his PayPal address? |

Yep... and here you are again handing out negative trust / feedback and "suggesting" the user uses escrow - which you have admitted to self escrowing previously. BitcoinGB1106 -8: -3 / +0 2015-09-16 0.00000000 Reference PayPal scammer. Insists that you send PayPal first and he will not fund escrow. I'm confused, so please help me understand this (granted, I did just wake up). How do you interpret my rating with anything remotely resembling a suggestion that he uses escrow (and I'm guessing you're trying to imply that would give me a chance of receiving the job). It clearly states that BitcoinGB1106 will NOT use escrow. I guess I'm confused on how I could have been more clear about it. |

Why did the OP get a negative trust from this? I don't see anything that necessarily made me think that he was trying the send-first PayPal scam.
Tomatocage is one of the users on what's called the Default Trust where they arbitrarily give out negative feedback, in the past he and Quickseller would also attach "use escrow" and then offer themselves up as the escrow agent without revealing that they are both the buyer and the escrow. Tomatocage today has worded his negative feedback very carefully to imply the OP is trying something on (ie PayPal scam) without using the term "use escrow" no doubt another newbie will come on and suggest escrow and months later we'll find out that it was another Alt of Tomatocage. Since Quickseller was outted as an escrow scammer persons on the DT and others have posted advice in the form of replies to the OP's instead of arbitrarily giving the OP negative feedback / trust without a chance to respond (ie using terms "I will remove if they ...") You can add Tomatocage to you list of untrustworthy in the trust --> Trust Settings --> then put ~Tomatocage in your Trust list (as untrustworthy by adding the tilda "~" before his name.. Quoted for preservation, and trust rating has been removed. I'll revisit the matter later, if needed. |

TimeLord is just sore that I gave one of his scam accounts negative Trust. Damn autocorrect.

Your best bet is to just buy through a legit exchange. Circle.com or Coinbase.com work fairly well, though you do have to jump through a few hoops to get verified (not a huge deal though).
