A friend of mine told me about paxful,it seems like a locabitcoin reskin.I haven't been able to find any vouches that it works,does anyone have any experience with paxful?

i never use paxful to buy and selling bitcoin but with many bad experience from the other member, i will give suggestion don't use them and better use the other like localbitcoin which is recommended site for us to buying and selling bitcoin. and the best is you should find your friends in your city and you can buying and selling from that person to avoid the scam.

Just use Localbitcoins for the security. Paxful has some legit reviews and some people saying that they are scam. I don't know, maybe they are egit or maybe they are not. Just take the safest steps possible.

Yeah it is better to go in safety place than risking some of your money in paxful honestly i don't heard this site this is my first time to heard about this site.. and i think some reviews there is just a marketing strategy so that they can attract people to invest..

I am not sure if people here are aware of who are Paxful owners. They are not exactly pristine characters.
I would rather not use service after I find out that CEO And CTO of Paxful were arrested in Miami on weapons and drugs charges.

It's facile to judge people through their low personal actions, but honestly, those acts haven't affected their business in any way.

Are you serious? If CEO of company is caught with drugs and weapons then of course it will affect the image of company itself.
I would rather not have people who like to run around with AR-15 while wearing masks and being stoned as CEO or bitcoin trading platform I use.

If you have a public profile like them it is only natural that they will be judged by their personal actions.

I have never used it personaly so don't have first hand experiences but I've read lot of rewies of this site and so far haven't found something with negative experiences.
This alleged criminal involvement of the Paxful owners is totaly different story and sure can affect their business in the future in negative way cause people might not trust them.

I checked out the latest Paxful's week volume charts and they made the best outcome last week, so I assume that claims didn't affect the business much. Of course, their personal reputations is ruined for awhile.

I bought some of my bitcoins in paxful about 3 times and only buy with a trusted seller. They use an escrow.Pax is good in my experience. Try to sign up and start to trade there.

Paxful.com is a scam. Trade on localbitcoins.com next time

Take a look on their scam site from this links

1) https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/6jqlpp/stay_away_from_paxfulcom_the_moderators_are/

2) http://www.nairaland.com/3884643/www.paxful.com-fraud-scammer-site-founder

3) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1987998.0


They will ban the vendor, take all his coins and won't even resolve issue with the Card owner.  Scam both Vendor and Card seller




STAY AWAY FROM PAXFUL.COM PLEASE, THEY ARE DANGEROUS

lets bring this back alive, i want to start selling on paxful but im pretty worried about being forced to have .1 bitcoin in my account even if i want to start by selling only 100 dollars worth, some reviews ive read large balanced accounts getting suspended and their funds supposedly can be held up to one year without getting your .1 back, so whats everyones thoughts on this? is it safe?
