AFAIK his IRL name is Pankaj Bharadwaj and he was managing/was from the team of, a bitcoin company in India. Here is a news , published today about his arrest: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/Card-frauds-used-bitcoins-to-trade-money/articleshow/50922983.cmsAlso an official statement from the company where he used to work: https://coinsecure.tumblr.com/post/139031335450/a-change-in-coinsecureGot to know this from: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=720068.msg13840616#msg13840616Mayne hate it when something like this happens, had been in contact with him in the last month, seemed like a good guy Edit: Having said that, I believe he should be replaced(or at least removed) from DT 1, or considering his trust list mainly contains the people who are trustworthy at the moment, can his account be locked with an unchanged trust list? Edit 2: And yes, if someone doesn't know who escrow.ms is, he is a member of DT 1 profile here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=76380

It is quite unfortunate that this happened to another default trust member. In these cases it is negative/neutral rating and ask questions later. Let's see how this story unfolds. Depth 1 needs some attention, there is at least 1 inactive member in addition to this fiasco now.
You forgot to add a link to his profile in OP.

none of escrow are true here I don't think he scammed anyone here while he was the escrow. If this is truly the case, then he was a good escrow regardless of this news.

Again another ecsrow is scamming people, what is going on??? From now on, I don't believe anymore in a escrow, they seem all to intend to scam none of escrow are true here I don't think he scammed anyone here while he was the escrow. If this is truly the case, then he was a good escrow regardless of this news. Yes, but card fraud, that goes accros the line. He should get neg repped for this, if you do such things, u dont deserve it.

Anyway, AFAIK he didn't scam any escrows he held even though he had plenty of opportunities to do so, guess he had some other intentions other than scamming here. Well if he does get removed from DT 1, another CITM is happening.

The news is from reputed channel's website in india and his company removed his position. lock his account and save other people get scammed (i don't think he will come soon from jail)

Stop spamming because of your signature and read the thread. He didn't scam anyone around here. lock his account and save other people get scammed (i don't think he will come soon from jail)
His account won't be locked. He will most likely be removed from the default trust list and added negative ratings from several members. Now's not the time to play "He kicked my ass once, I'm gonna take sweet revenge".
People tend to abuse the situation.

I too heard this news and it was shocking. They seized his 8 lacs which is a huge sum and now they'll recover more 22 lacs. Escrow.ms is in a huge mess and now users should be more careful while trading with strangers in person.

I don't think he scammed anyone. He was dealing in cash with those guys that is the main problem. He most probably did not knew the source of funds buyer sending him and messed up.

Dealing in hard cash always risky if it's involved hawala money.

AFAIK he never made any deals in person.Most of his deals were through this forum and localbitcoins only.Also the issues here is not he scammed anyone (he never cheated any trader though,check his localbitcoins trade history),its the money he payed for bitcoins was occupied by illegal ways IE debit cards cloning.

Two words.... card cloning. I know, but he is getting funds through hawala, so there is no way to know what is the source of funds.

Another big scam reveal after master's issues. The "Master-P" case already shocked me enough, now escrow.ms - one of the legendary and most trusted members on the forum appears to be fraudulent too... Hope this case gets solved...

According to the news, he confessed guilty, so he's in a lot of crap at the moment.
