Additional Notes: I tried to be reasonable and comrpomise as much as possible, but he is refusing to even send the amount he was claiming to have now.. So I am left no choice but to alert the community.

[lucullus]

I feel bad about this buddy I am going to get you back just not right now I am unemployed and you want an extra seven dollars because of a btc skyrocket that I did not account for. Will keep in contact

[amacar2]

Well that is some shitty reason. He loaned the BTC and therefore must pay and agree to the lenders' term.
It's odd that he is in the DT and would refuse to pay a small amount of 0.06 BTC

The price did not skyrocket too dramatically honestly, and even so.. The .065 BTC repayment would be equivalent to .048 BTC even after the price jump in terms of $.
If you can provide at least that much I will remove the scam report and you can handle the remaining .017 whenever you have a chance.

I did not know he was in DT, where can I check this?

He has some couple of ++ trust from those in the DT so he  has that green trust in his profile. That makes him also in the DT. You are not able to see it because currently you see an orange over ther in his trust rating because you left him a negatuve feedback.

[EthanB]

I see some DT members have taken it upon themselves to handle this, and I appreciate them watching out.
Hope this gets resolved.

No, he is not on DT unless someone on level 1 or 2 DT adds him to their trust list. Green trust does not mean he's on DT.

I've added a negative rating after OP has informed me about this situation. I hope that this will be resolved because I have dealt with lucullus before on multiple occasions and things were fine. It would be very disappointing to see him scam for such a small amount of BTC after everything.

This is somewhat comforting to hear at least, because if he has a history of good business than hopefully everything will get handled.
As for now I am forced to halt my loan-service to minimize loss until this matter gets resolved.

Thanks for taking notice.

Oh sorry about the misunderstanding. I see I haven't fully understand how the DT works. I just thought a green trust means that. Thanks for pointing that up.

EthanB disregard whatI said. Master-P has already gave him a negative rating.

Hope that this will be cleared up.

To check if someone is on DT, simply go here:

Assuming your default trust level is set to 2 (the forum default), then everyone you see there is on DT.

HTH


BTW - I've seen lucculus selling a 20 dollar Amazon GC just yesterday. Not sure why he's being a whiny bitch over the price rise, that's how bitcoin works. 

[EthanB]

Yeah, I was a little surprised about how upset he seemed over the price change.. Saying that it almost doubled when it only realistically went up 22%. I noticed him selling that Amazon GC as well and was hoping I would see something returned to me.

He asked me for my BTC address immediately after I linked him to this thread, and has sent me nothing yet.

[zazarb]

Ruin hero account(in next period) for $15 , very short-sighted.
and and a statement of seven dollars extra, it does not make sense.
forget dollars, you have asked loan in btc.

That's what I forgot to add. what a waste.

I think that is a disgrace that after building something concrete on the forum (in this case a hero account), he decided to go to scamming people... Who thinks that in the future maybe will say sorry or will try to sell his account? I wouldn't be surprised that if the account gets sold the new owner paids the debt the account had

lucullus is now selling his account : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1231953.new#new

Why even bother telling the community you're planning to pay me back if you're just blatantly lying? That really shows the character of a petty and pitiful man.

Is he selling the account to pay you back?

I have tried to contact him to ask this question and others.. He has ignored my messages even when he is online.
So I have no idea, but he is looking more and more suspicious each day.

Honestly I would've accepted the account in exchange for the re-payment and still would.

Anyway he made the whole sell thread self-modered maybe he will delete who is gonna post all this mess on that thread, i suppose the only thing possible is wait and see what can happen next (maybe he will open a new account, who knows)

If ever this is the case, will the negative trust be removed?

He said he is currently unemployed maybe he didn't want to run and didnt pay the loan and he is just running out of options.

Btw this is one reason why collateral is important because even a sr. Member can run out the small loaned amount.

[xetsr]

Well, if he does sell the account you still might be paid back, just not from the original owner of the account. It may be worth it (i have no idea how much hero accounts go for) for someone to buy the account re-pay the loan themselves just to eventually get the negative trust removed or downgraded to neutral. Value should increase enough for them to resell and profit. Although the buyer would have to get the positive trust left removed so the account doesn't receive more negative feedback for trust buying.

Not looking good so that's probably the only way you're getting paid back.
