I wasn't going to create a big stink over $7! If it were a large loan, that would be a different story. That said, if a mod wanted to give out a tag, that's up to them, and I wouldn't be heartbroken if they did. After all, he is the one who screwed up the tx, and if it wasn't meant to be a scam initially (and just not paying because HE didn't receive the BTC.5) I really hope he learned his lesson about the care necessary when sending/receiving Bitcoin (Fast/non-reversable/unforgiving). I knew the risk, but figured for $7, I would give the benefit of the doubt and try to help.

In my post with the terms, I linked the Blockchain link to my address so everyone could check up on the standing of the loan. I figured this would put a little more pressure on him to repay since it was all in the open to back my case. Sort of a public receipt in case of dispute. I also hope others take away from this, the idea to quote all relevant info regarding a transaction for their own cases should they arise.  Wink

Why do you believe that he "screwed up" the tx?

Yeah, I read both those statements. Why would you assume he was telling the truth? He didn't pay you back, right?

Because some people are actually decent human beings. I for one respect RyNinDaCleM's attitude, scam or not.

None of this would have gotten started if everyone hoarded their coins, remember that.

No, he did not!
It absolutely could have been a line from the start. But looking at the address he gave me (on BC.info), there are a TON of very small transactions that that BTC0.5 moved out of that address in, so it looks to me like a faucet service address. I'm only speculating on that though. It could have been a sockpuppet, Who knows?

Do these decent human beings normally disappear after defaulting on loans?

I just thought it was odd that he didn't even explain how he made this supposed mistake. If he posted the address he should know where it came from.

If I took a loan out and had some problem repaying I'd be in constant contact with the lender. But that's because I'm not a scammer.

I agree! In fact, in the PM conversation, I explicitly told him to notify me ASAP if the bank was still closed and he couldn't get the verification taken care of by the time he said. It was New Years eve, so I wasn't sure of bank hours.

... because their attitude is that of entrusting one with the benefit of the doubt, from the beginning.

It doesn't matter, because it hasn't ended.
