I traded 31.2k btc for 35k cash deposit. I was stupid enough to send him the btc first. All I know is his phone number, name (I think it's real), and country and have a picture of him. That's all I got. What can I do with this info? And is he gonna be arrested?

Please help me out here. I don't know what to do. Thanks.

Edit: corrected spelling.


EDIT: Here's the entire thread reworded

Ok seems like everyone is confused, I'll try to clear it up

I usually trade over $20,000+ with my usual trader. He was unable to provide me cash for my approximately $32,000 USD in BTC which was like 128 BTC or something. For that reason, he recommended me another trader who was able to take my 128 BTC and provide me with cash.

I gave him over 128 BTC+ (139.6 BTC to be exact which is like $35,000+) to get $32,000 USD. So he was making like $3,000 with that trade.

So then I sent him the BTC (139.6 BTC which is like 35,000$) in two different payments. I sent him 128 BTC first and the rest later.

After those 2 transactions, he disappeared. No luck. Please help me out here.

Lost over 35000$ USD in total. Please help. I don't know what to do to get my money back.

go and get your shit back since you have all his real info? seems kind of obvious to me

Be radical, have principles, be absolute, be that which the bourgeoisie calls an extremist: give yourself without counting or calculating, don't accept what they call ‘the reality of life' and act in such a way that you won't be accepted by that kind of ‘life', never abandon the principle of struggle.

sorry your money is lost. take this as a lesson and move on.

Buy more btc before the price goes up. If you're telling the truth about this, you're both dumb, and rich enough to cover your loss.
I didn't want to trade more than 10 btc face to face, because it didn't feel right, and people do these kind of dumb moves, incredible.

I am not joking. I'm 100% serious. I sent 32,000 btc to someone for 35,000 cash deposit to my bank account. And now they are not responding.

Edit: I have done over 150k trades with people that I know. He was recommended by a friend of mine as my main supplier was out of cash to deposit.

What can I possibly do? Please help

Go get him, file a report with the local police while you are there and point them out to him.

Or

Give him an old fashion beating and get your BTC back.

Escrow cant help him, because he will also scam him after seeing that much amount.

Sorry I forgot to add a 'k' at the end of 31.2. It is 31.2k not 31.2. In my title it's corrected

it seems you are in shock and looking a little confused to tell the whole story in a proper what happened to you because we don't understand what you want to tell us, some kind of transaction id about this would be helpful to know about this and if that you sent to your bank account so that mean your local support bitcoin?
