In order for my account to be reinstated I have to pay $600 and write an appeal. So, apparently Google thinks I should be held liable for the $600 even though I was the one scammed. http://imgur.com/a/kMwKo ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F2jM9tipl.png&t=665&c=VZg90Nzy1PBkMA)

Pay $600 for them to do what? Enable a little tick in a box next to your account for you to use it again? This is why I would rather use Yahoo as a search engine and Bitcoin as a payment method. What will happen if Bitcoin goes mainstream? Would they pay you $600 to come back again to use their service? These centralized services has too much power to push people around. You would never think that their are a battle between Yahoo / Bing and Google for market share, if you look at the way they are treating their customers.

If this is ture it say that google is starting to notice bout bitcoin. This is a good movement.
google starting to notice bitcoin? they have bitcoin on their radar for quite a long time. i'm sure they won't fight bitcoin, they even added a bitcoin price to their google finance section.

Do people really use google wallet? I thought that thing is dead ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Next time try to use Paypal or better, use wire transfer to receive your money ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Good luck in the future man ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

The cancelled money transfers were sent to him by others and then cancelled AFAICS. That being said, it's a lot of cancelled transfers. OP is there something else you forgot to tell us?

I don't understand why google has to be so unfriendly to Bitcoin or digital currencies... If you look at it... millions of people use google to search and research about Bitcoin and digital currencies. So it's always a win from them... why can't they get that point!?

It looks to me like for 2 days in a row, someone sent you money, then cancelled the transaction, but not before you quickly withdrew the money from your Google wallet.
So hoppy32347 (seems like a suspicious name to me) still has all their money, you have $600 in your bank account.
Of course Google locked your account! What should they do? Open it up on your word that it won't cost them more money? Their decision has nothing to do with Bitcoin.
This problem will keep happening as long as people keep using money transfer systems with charge-backs (including credit cards, PayPal, and online transfer) to sell Bitcoin, which, as we all know, has no charge-back.
Advice: Keep clean by exchanging Bitcoin on real exchanges (with KYC), or for real cash, not this electronic stuff.

Just go to Paypal instead.
They annoy me also ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) All payments I receive on my PayPal account are currently subject to a 21 day hold before I can withdraw (unless its from a friend) as a 'security measure' Try Payeer then. They have added BTC to they site also.

None of the messages you shared even hint at the reason why they closed your account, let alone mention Bitcoin.
I think you need to give us more proof that Google shutdown your wallet due to bitcoin transactions. It seems REALLY unlikely that using a Google wallet to buy Bitcoin would be a reason for them to shut you down. They're not in the business of stifling options, creativity or innovation...in fact they are a business that operates under the opposite objective. Plus, Google sits in the heart of Silicon Valley, one of the central locations for Bitcoin success!
Pictures or didn't happen...
Google routinely shuts down accounts at the slightest hint of the possibility of violation of their ToS. Adsense is the worst. Apparently any adsense account making more than 5000 monthly (yes it is possible to make this kind of money with adsense, it just puts you in their crosshairs) gets scuppered without any hope for appeal. go to their forums, there are hundreds of pages of users crying "WHY???" no one even gets an answer from them. when you consider that google has over a billion users a few accounts getting v& is nothing to them. their thinking is "better safe than sorry" but all that means for us is, the consumer is expendable. i hate google

When the first payment was sent from the hoppy32347 account it appeared to me as coming from Marlene Hopkins, then they (goes by the pseudonym 'Sea Creature') sent the next payment it came from Raymond Noz. That's when I felt uneasy and asked Google to look into it, next thing I know my account is closed. I never sent any bitcoin for the transaction for $1,047. The $100 and $500 payment had no issues until 2 weeks later. You can't cancel a transaction in Google Wallet after you've sent it. Google stopped the pending transaction and reversed the two that cleared. I provided the Google reps with everything I know, trying to help them find the guy, yet they go after me.

I'm guessing that the hoppy32347 account was created by a scammer and funded with (a) stolen credit card(s). Then, the owner of the credit card got his bill and disputed it. It was obviously stolen, so the credit card transaction was reversed. Google probably froze the hoppy32347 account. And your account has a negative balance. What else would you expect them to do?

I don't love google, its good but not the best. I don't understand why people love Google so much too. Yahoo is so much better you have email a 360 page and so many opportunities. If you can't find anything or need help its usually right there for you. I feel Google is nothing but a imitator to yahoo! As per me people loves google because its plain, simple, easy, quick, gets the job done but many sites are providing same services like google, there is nothing new to google.

Google is nice for a lot of things, but it scares me how big they are with such little competition in some areas.

They have gotten huge and I think the scariest part is how much information they have on a typical google user (just chrome and android). They pretty much know all your interests, people you interact with, where and how you travel, what content you download, etc. If this type of information ever starts to implicate people, I think there will be a huge surge in demand for browsers, search engines and mobile operating systems that don't track your usage.
