Someone scammed me $9000 (13.4BTC) through Skype.

[teamy5892]

I am ready to give 20% to anyone who can assist me in retrieving it. I've been buying from him for a long time; but this last transaction, he claimed his SKYPE account has been hacked. And the perpetrator took $9000 from me in exchange for PerfectMoney (PM) of $8990 worth. He then stopped replying, what do I do please?... Can anyone help me please?

TX ID; https://blockchain.info/tx/88185e1d8edb781a5becd39b6f6b78e399606cf81b5c5d768f656e9e0a655570

My BTC Address;

I traced the TX ID and noticed the ($8000) worth of the coins are still in this address; https://blockchain.info/address/1KDpFqortGEntQWREuir5c1JbEkwPfvAiA

Please help me; I appreciate...

The SKYPE NAME is         (ukrobmencom)

His website;                   http://ukr-obmen.com/

He's a registered partner of PerfectMoney.

I'll attach screenshots of my conversations with him soon.


PLEASE HELLPPPPP!!!

[mishra1994]

Oh no bro 9000$ is huge amount.I can undertand how you are feeling because i am also scammed in the past a bit similarily.
Bro i think you should take the screenshot of the chat that happened and post that here...
and yes sign a message as others said for the proof...

[damiano]

I find it highly amusing that the scammer got scammer I must say   Saying that, I don't believe you have been scammed.

Press ctrl and prt sc, save the image then go to imgur, upload it and then get the forum bbcode link, copy and past it here.

You already have the way to sign the message from the post above so please link chat logs.

Upload the images on imgur.com or any similar websites. I don't know what wallet are you using but here's the tutorial by Shorena for signing messages in various wallets --> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=990345.msg10775516#msg10775516. You might want to use the correct format of reporting as well --> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260073.msg2774678#msg2774678.

I think no one scam him.... I think that this could be an attemp to attak the  11 BTC wallet. All addresses was never shown .
The only way to confirm that i'm wrong is to sign a message from sender wallet , but i have some doubt that this could happen

[calpsy2]

another chancer LOL . $9,000 my arse . Probably doesnt have $90 to his name

[immangrace]

I join the other users here and ask you to sign a message from the sending address to prove ownership, and don't think if you really got scammed in bitcoin you will get it back, no one can reverse a transaction even Satoshi himself. And forget about Perfect Money they will not do a thing for you either.

[codehtcmail]

Something is fishy here, you say "Someone" scammed you in title, but in the topic you say you know him and had deals with him in the past ?
Also, you have plenty of bitcoins and don't know how to sign a message ? you need to sign the message as others said and post screenshots, and also this topic will serve for nothing if it's not another member of btctalk that scammed you.

[CoinBreader]

how do I attach images?. and how do i sign a message?

so mr you messing with bitcoin and you claiming that you dont even know how to screenshot & how to sign a message ??
You can hire me for a security consultant , ill save you from future scams, ill support your needs, screenshots, signing msgs , and whatever else come down the road..
For real now ?? and all this red trust you have ? what about.. ?!

as someone said before scammer get scammed pwned !
live and learn my friend!

[SanjaPaulina]

Woow 9000$ is so big money for me.You can maybe try to contact perfectmoney becaude they are partner with that person.Maybe is their job to give you back your money because they are partners.I think they will fix your problem and give you money back.

For most of us 9k is a respect or even big amount, but do you really think that the guy who scammed him was partner with perfectmoney ? i dont really think so.. cause it would be way too much easy to track him down..lets say in a blink of an eye !

One of the BTC 0.5 transactions lands in this Wallet Address 1DJyWzBj7B79ShUyRRKoWyc5xQDxo9DRsa which is part of Wallet CoinMotion.com https://www.walletexplorer.com/wallet/CoinMotion.com/addresses with 4,946 Wallet Addresses...

Another one lands in Localbitcoins.com at Wallet Address 191b63osEdBhhWGHJd364hb4DJDLrpR5Xp

Is there a user name here on BCT for this UK-ROB(as in Robbery of)-Men ?

[andyste]

you believe the transaction amounted to nine thousand dollars ($ 9,000) only through skype directly send bitcoin
I can only laugh at you if truth occurs, because the big transaction it is only through skype , do not know people the direct transfer
big money through transaction  must big  market transactions exchanger, large and reputable
as okcoin huobi bitfinex kraken and etc

[marcuslong]

I feel you boss i get scam too but not so big amount i know the feeling get scam because in the months i got scam in hyip almost a month different site of hyip i so sad. But nothing i can do because they all scam. Dont put your trust to anyone you did not know in person many people now dazzled in money.

[letyouearn2]

I just tried adding him on Skype.  He didn't accepted my invite but he was chatting without accepting the Skype request.  I talked with him about this , and his last reply was " he knows my btc address, but he sent to another address ".

After I said he scammed OP. he stopped replying.

[Gumballinabattleaxeninja]

Karma is a bitch isn't it. Its way better in the long run to to scam someone or swindle them. Its all going to come back and bite you in the ass eventually.

[ErnieRox]

seems a little fishy with such negative trust

[bajing]

Just one word, dumb! did you really trust to anyone for trade only with chat in skype to send a lot money less than 1 minute?
sorry to say that man, be carefully to trade with anyone in online.

[SANALIU]

trust OP negatif trust and iam not believe op say
i think is much people is exchange big money $9000 would have chosen
official exchanger market placed is big
1 huobi
2 okcoin
3 bitfinex
4 kraken
5 local exchanger your country
6 localbitcoins dot com
7 or cash on deleverid system transaction

[mrhelpful]

cant really feel sorry for you since you scammed others based on your reputation.

as for the comment of knowing what to do - should be the money transmitters customer support / and taking it to them then here.

present your case - even if its denied let them know and move onto your legal conditions of your best move. When you moved $9k this had to be some sort of trust thing based off a previous business relationship I`m assuming and got screwed over?

[thoth-Atlantian]

You give me the 20% first I will get you the coins back...


You have a good trust record buddy 

[Joel_Jantsen]

>Karma,bites you way harder.Remember,for every 1 satoshi scammed,you are going to pay 0.10 in return.
>Sign a message if at all you want it to look a bit genuine.
>Anybody adding that account on skype is a step closer to get scammed.@Letyouearn2

[immangrace]

Still no signed message from the sending address ? you didn't have that much BTC and you are just lying here, but you will get no results as no one can reverse a BTC transaction, inn fact if it was possible, BTC wouldn't be so popular and prime target for scammers.

[Indianacoin]

If the story is true then that is a pretty dumb decision for you to make.
No one in the right mind will send $9000 to a completely unknown stranger also knowing the fact that you are dealing with an anonymous cryptocurrency. You could have at least broken the transactions into several increments and have waited for every time the other user sends you the equivalent money.

Well, no one in this forum will be able to help you now. Also forget thinking of someone donating you for your dumb decision.
Maybe karma caught you this time I guess.

[teamy5892]

I'm so helpless at the moment. Please, can anyone help me investigate?

[teamy5892]

Also, I never scammed anyone. It was all a misunderstanding. I wasn't even online during the period those comments were made on my profile and I don't know who to approach

So, You're saying your account has been hacked?

You should secure your account first then work out what damage has been done.

Ditto!

And another reason is so he can "try" to scam at a later date 

Another douchebag added to the DB list

[Dyatrev]

ppl asking you to sign wallet adress so maybe they will help

[btcdevil]

First you have to provide the genuinety of your wallet that you are the real owner of that wallet address. After that only anyone can give you advice, but i think even if anyone give you advice you cannot do anything, as you know it perfectly that if you get scammed this way , their is no other way to recover it, as you are a scammer from long.


It is really pity that what you sow that you owe, in the previous you have scammed and now you got scammed, This is call the judgement of God to your sins.

Op is a scammer himself so homestly i would not give him any advice till he paid back the coins he have scammed

Only if he have done it the community should consider to help him.

[FruitsBasket]

I am almost sure he isn't scammed since a scammer should know better that he can't trust anyone for a 9000$ trade. If the OP is indeed a scammer himself it is a hard lesson for him, but yeah he will never scam again, hoped he learned his lesson.

[Zoomer]

I think that now he will even try to scam more to recover this 9000$ if the story is true!

It would be nice if the person who scammed him would refund the scammed people that would be a nice justice

scammer got scammed by another scammer

If that's your address get it signed. I like that "scammer got scammed by another scammer" 

Whatever the truth is, It was soo stupid for you to send 13 BTC to someone your never knew. And then coming to bitcointalk and asking for help will not do any good at least from this account which has trust issues. Maybe you could have got some sympathy if you had created a new account and asked for help. Nevermind, sympathy will not get your money back. New lesson learnt! Be careful next time. 

[mindrust]

While you have a red trust from tomatocage himself, i highly doubt that you are telling the truth. How to upload screenshots??? Cmon wtf? I am not clever enough to know what your real intentions are but it is clear that they are no good.
