REWARD: 5 BTC for the identity of b4rrydoyle on BitcoinMarket

[Ian Maxwell]

I will pay 5 BTC to the first person who tells me the full name, home address, and telephone number of b4rrydoyle on Bitcoin Market. He owes me either 30 BTC or 500 USD.

This offer is lowered to 1 BTC in the event that I ever actually get my PayPal dollars---or 0 BTC in the event that you are b4rrydoyle.

I have the following information to start with:
Buyer ID 5184
Uses choupex@yahoo.fr
Uses pierre.chabot@laposte.net (but this may be a stolen account)

I have. I'm trying to cover as many angles as possible.

[demonofelru]

What a jerk, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy either.  Hope you get your coins back.

Edit: You are sun avatar right cause if not then I don't know if you're nice or not lol

Ian where are you from? I think I have something for you....

[krtek.net]

I peg another 3 BTC, because fsck them! PM or mail me Ian me to send the coins (fuckthescammers@krtek.net)

[MemoryException]

Created an account to let you know he did the same thing to me.  Bought 15BTC from me at 16.50 each.  Amount showed up in Paypal, and then he disputed the payment.  Contact via e-mail didn't solve the issue, and paypal eventually reversed the transaction.  Luckily, I hadn't confirmed the transaction yet, and my btc remain in escrow.

Does anyone know what bitcoinmarket does when you don't confirm the bitcoins?  I'd like to get them back.  I've contacted support, but I've yet to hear back.  Hopefully they're returned, and not given away after X hours...

I saw a cute YouTube video of a little girl and a dog which may be from this character.

Guys, sorry for the fraud, you need to STOP accepting Paypal if not from reputable members.

The username also shows up as a PartyPoker player:

I've come to the same conclusions...definitely in the UK.

[Ian Maxwell]

Not at home right now, I'll have to check all this info out later. If anyone wabts to contribute BTC, they can just send them to my tip address.

I had had a very similar experience from the same exact thief.

No need to mention I was careless, I accept that.

No need to mention I was careless, I accept that.

If you issue the two currencies on an OT server, you can trade them against each other, with receipts on both sides, and the server processes the trades based on your individual market offers. (So you don't have to trust all of the traders on the market, only the dollar-issuer whose currency you are trading.)

I haven't added escrow yet, (meaning more of a private arrangement between two specific parties.) However, obviously this needs to be added and ASAP, so I'm posting here now to ask you guys to give me the specs for escrow as you see that you need it.

[DannyM]

Thank you for this and all your work FT.

Maybe the escrow use case discussion should have it's own thread, I bet many people with good thoughts won't be reading this one.

The only features I can think of are:

* configurable agreement between parties on the number of confirmations before a transaction is accepted.

* integration of ripple-style trust routing: http://ripple-project.org/Protocol/Protocol05

Also, for my particular issue, I should be fair to paypal and mention they have restored my account and will follow their standard practices against the thief.

Everyone who isn't aware of Fellow Traveler's work please get familiar now: https://github.com/FellowTraveler/Open-Transactions/wiki

Everyone who is familiar, please send him some support.

i hope that you get that guy i really know how hard is to get that amount of bitcoins from mining in the current difficulty.

[Ian Maxwell]

Update: There is no way I'm getting my PayPal dollars back. Thus the reward is definitely 5 BTC.

I've gotten some useful information, but all of it requires me to do the legwork of tracking this guy down. I still don't have a name (though "Barry Doyle" is a good guess), an address, or a phone number, let alone all three.

Here's some more information that may help you out: b4rrydoyle's login history on BitcoinMarket.
