I have never used Paxful since there is no available payment methods for my country ( except Werstern Union which sucks ) , but many trusted members here complained about the site
a noob account can be easily hacked , but when there are many trusted and experienced members sharing their bad stories then definitely there is something wrong
also I can confirm that Paxful is misleading , for example when I tried to google paxful Syria it showed that over 10K bitcoins were sold in Syria
https://paxful.com/syria/buy-bitcoinand as I said the payment methods for Syrians isn't that wide , I know only 2 people in Syria who know what bitcoin is
the 10K story is totally a lie , so even in marketing they are using lies
You're right - read my post here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1990749.msg24049451#msg24049451I found something alarming and the entire Bitcoin community needs to boycott these crooks. His facebook page says Ray Yosef, so Mohamed Azab Youssef, just "Ray" and Ray Savant. Seems he has an identity crisis.
The CEO of paxful is "Ray" but the Miami-Dade arrest with his possession of cocaine, etc. shows his name is Mohamed Azab Youssef, but Ray? Searching Ray Azab Youssef come up with a health page and it looks like he also goes by Ray Savant. Read this:
https://www.activism.com/en_US/petition/equal-treatment-at-funhi-com/97455He was a former CEO of a company called FunHi and was secretly reading through the member's private messages "for weeks"!!
He is a total scammer!
I searched for Ray Savant in google and the first one that came up is this twitter page:
https://twitter.com/rayshealthBusted! That's totally him.
A few images down is a thumbnail of a youtube clip - also totally him! Listen to his interview - he's a total pig!
