[EDU] How to spot a scammer (Read this before lending your coins!)

[Vod]

I have repaid 8 loans to be accurate and only late on the last one

That's how ponzi schemes work.  They pay back everyone, on time, until they default.

Keep moving those goalposts. You're a sad little man.  Pathetic obnoxious human being. If you weren't so much the previously mentioned negative things I'd pity you.

Guys. Please STFU already

Sorry - deleted my post. Apologies for the thread-crapping.

Well I do pity you and all scammers.    You're not trying to help yourself and you're just relying on the charity of others.  I'm starting to think you lied about having two children as well, because most people would want a better life for their children, not one of servitude and debt.  

I'm not going to post in this thread anymore, because that's not what it's for.  I just wanted to warn people that you tried a ponzi once and failed, and are very likely to start up again as soon as you think it is safe.  So take a free shot at me - I'll give it to ya.

I'm done tomato but I think you should mention I paid back 7 loans up to 10BTC at a time before the single loan I had issues with. Saying I had to be coerced is not really fair I just needed time to raise the funds. That a small group took it upon themselves to troll and make accusations of my intentions to abandon my account does not mean I had to be coerced. I kept in contact with my lenders, most of which are repeat lenders since my very first loan, the entire time. If the people I've actually done business with don't find reason to doubt me and still have me a 100% rating I don't think it's fair or right for you to take it upon yourself to raise doubt. 7 loans no issue and 1 with issue and it took the 8th to get removed and it's the only one you mention. Literally nothing about my loan history should raise concern/point to me being a scammer but the way it's put in this thread makes it look like I am not trustworthy. I said what I was doing with the BTC up front and matthew even logged into my MtGox account to verify I was not running a ponzi or anything shady. I just made a mistake. The current state of my listing in here is not accurate. It's your list though so you'll do what you want just thought I'd mention this.

Mosper has started his ponzi up again.

https://btcjam.com/listings/3639   Already 100% funded for 10btc
https://btcjam.com/listings/3684   Currently funding for another 10btc (deleted by Mosper)
https://btcjam.com/listings/3731   Funding for 50 btc (deleted by Mosper)

He seems to delete listings that won't fund so he doesn't leave any kind of trail.

Tomatocage : or anyone How does a new member start to establish a good reputation.  I don't want loan's but would like to buy Bitcoin or casascius. When offered, I don't expect anyone to send anything blindly but also do not know what to offer as credibility. Also please direct me to any thread that explains escrow and how it works. This sounds like a good option but how do I know how to learn how it works or what does it. When I search for escrow i get no basic info.
Thanks for this post any advice would be appreciated.

Mosper has funded another 15btc loan to pay off his 10btc loan.
https://btcjam.com/listings/3824

This cycle will continue until one of his loans fails to fund and he defaults - just like last time.

EDIT:  New loan request for 25btc:
https://btcjam.com/listings/3905 (deleted by Mosper when it wasn't funding)
https://btcjam.com/listings/3923 for 20btc (deleted by Mosper)
https://btcjam.com/listings/3951 for 12 btc

I suspect the majority of this loan will be filled by alternate Mosper accounts, like his last loans have been.

The bad thing about this thread is : it's "how to be a better scammer" 101.

[legendster]
