mtgox last or weighted?
At $125 per btc last i checked (idc if its a little bit off, i prefer round numbers) $350/125 would be 2.8btc : / 2.45 * 125 = $306? Also, I may not be able to trade with moneypal (my apologies, I know you specifically stated it in the OP), its just that im from UK, and dont know how to use it. If i know how to use it, i can sell it(btc) to ya. |

It will make me feel better.
Sob story, check! Begging for loan, check! Practically no rep, check!
I feel better now! Insulting others really helps my self esteem!
Well, I do have a past transaction where I went first. And other where people have lent to me in the past and I have repaid that (In fairness it is not much compared to 1btc). |

Im looking for a 1 btc loan for today, I can repay you on saturday, with +10%. I can only do this today, reason: I want to buy something online, listing ends at at 12 GMT. Its almost 10pm. Story: What I want to buy costs 3.40 btc, i can show you. I currently have 2.45 btc, I was about to purchase one, until I got scammed earlier today on the forum. If no one can lend this today, then I guess I cant do this. i CAN offer collateral. message to people who think this is a scam: dont bother posting. You can if it will make you feel better, although Im already pissed off from being scammed earlier  |

You really shouldn't discuss your intentions with bitcoins if they're not entirely legal. If you want to take up my offer give me a PM. I've done 4 UK-BT transactions on the forum.
tbh, i dont think ill be going first to any member, i would most likely use escrow. |

I'll take them all for £200 UK-BT.
Also are you just cashing out because you're annoyed at bitcoin? If so you should maybe wait a couple of days before selling, let things cool off. It is pretty frustrating getting scammed and you become sad at the lack of humanity.
looking for around £210. Im cashing out because I wanted to buy something from SR for 3.40 btc. Since I cant buy it anymore (I can, but the price will go up the next time its re-listed), i dont want to buy it. Im still really pissed off about being scammed. |

Even if it gets to court (and that's a big if). This forum will not have to comply...
Even if this forum complies, you only have an IP...
Even if you have the IP, the other guy could have used proxy upon proxy upon proxy
Even if you find out the original IP (another BIG IF), There is a high chance the other person is out of UK jurisdiction...
And also, didn't you do a wire transfer? Meaning you have this guys bank details.
If you have those, you could find out what bank he's at. (Or didn't you think of that yet?)
And then you are assuming this is all worth £85?
Of course I won't give you £85, I am no charity.
If $85 is such a big deal for you, it's probably best if you don't deal with BTC at all.
Apologies for being a bit harsh, but I'm trying to protect you from yourself...
That information has been thought of, and will be passed onto the police. Iv dealt with BTC when it was worth around $250 each, I brought and I sold, with many trusted people, Its ashame my hope in trusting a new member went wrong. But yh, it is worth £85. |

I'll tell you what'll happen... He doesn't have ANY ground to stand on.
£85 Seriously? Leave it that and look at it as a learning fee. Be happy it's this cheap...
If its not that much would you be able to pay me this? Thats what I thought! What no good ground to stand on? If the courts request private information from this forum, this forum will have to give that information. That includes IP logs. |

I think I already read a post of you using Satoshi dice or getting scammed, I don't exactly recall.
Anyway you seem to believe everything everyone says, this environment is dangerous for you...
True, "assume good faith" is for Wikipedia. Doesn't apply here, sadly. Be careful. Assume bad faith when trading with someone without reputation. Read all his or her posts, for instance that Dorijan Grey definitely looks scammish just by reading his posts. If the OP was already scammed multiple times, maybe my "unless" clause applies, and TradeFortress' comment was appropriate... This is my first time being scammed. |

If you leave the keys on your car when you just walk to the postbox around the corner, and your car gets stolen, you will meet with two kinds of reaction. The first will blame you for leaving the keys on. The second will feel for you, try and help you find your stolen car. Very different reasonings, both are intellectually sustainable, but unless you are stupid and cannot learn from your mistakes for yourself, the former are basically useless (in short: FY), while the latter may help... just my 0.00000002 of course.
THAT SAID, I would say that legal action would be overkill for such a "low" amount (not implying £85 are peanuts, but probably way below the costs of legal action especially if the scammer is not a resident of the same country)
Ugh I was in such a rush, I needed to buy 1btc. Legal fees wont be that expensive, assuming he is from the same country. I sent the money to a UK bank account, that can be traced to his real identity, along with where the money was sent or where it was. Legal fees = Small claims court, small ammount. I got off phone with bank, they said they cannot reverse it, but they said the met fraud department (police) can help me. Tommorow im going to ring them, and sort this out. Either way Im getting my money back and this kid goes to jail for fraud. |

UK-BT, its fine, he has 5 minutes, if I dont get a blockchain transaction Ill call the bank and cancel the payment.
Good luck. I hope the bank can help. ty, it has happened in the past on another forum. Its ok though, either im gonna get 1btc, or my full money back. |

You sent him the full amount right away? Did you send him via UK-BT or paypal? UK-BT, its fine, he has 5 minutes, if I dont get a blockchain transaction Ill call the bank and cancel the payment. |
