Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Probably. That seems to be an online wallet where you don't own your keys, so I'd say no.

With all due respect, I was referring to their escrow-service.. and not to their wallet. Their escrow is a multi-signature one, which means we all(the seller, the admin and me) hold one key of the 3... |

If you want to use their service, use it offline without having them as a mediator. But ultimately it's your call  |

(I just simply don't request to have a mediator's public key in when I make the multi-signature escrow?) |

Basically you can generate the addresses you need offline, with their tool (or any other), but if you really want to have a third party (escrow) in your transaction you'd better choose someone that's widely known and accepted and not just a random website. You have a few trusted escrow services available on the forum, I think some of them even accept working with multisig addresses. |

I'm not sure how could I get scammed while generating the addresses offline ? they will never have access to the private keys.. |
