You should have checked his trust ratings first. That is a hacked account. His last appearence is 2 years ago and he suddenly comes back. I am sorry for your loss. Never trust anyone here again.

Unfortunately, account sales are only frowned upon on this board.  For this reason you should not explicitly trust green rated member accounts.
Theymos has said in the past that he will cooperate with the authorities so reporting the theft to police would be a start.

That's terrible man...
If you have any skills I would recommend advertising them here in order to make some money.

 Wait a second.  You had your entire life's savings in bitcoin?!  This is hard to believe. 
Do you have any liquid assets?  There's a section on here to sell them - perhaps you can still keep your room that way.

I am sorry for your lose, but the next time use escrow and do some background check in the seller!

[Bitcoinsummoner]

Honestly if he is already scammer there is nothing that we can do only defaulters can give him negative trust.. so that members here can be aware about this scammers..
If you have no money to pay your rent better to take loan here if you have a good high rank account you can loan.. but if you are just newbie it is impossible to loan here..
Try to borrow money in your family maybe they can help you..
Sorry for your lose.

That's the sad part.
Does OP have any collateral (gold etc) which he can use to secure his loan?

i have nothing just my faucet.

[Rockie1234]

You have no cash or credit card at all?
Just seems strange, but feel free toexplain.

[Zoomer]

If i where that broke and would need the money to pay my rent, I would make 100% sure that I would not be scammed because as you said yourself that was all your money and you needed it to pay the rent, else you will be kicked out!

I know I can tell you everything now and it will not bring your money back, however, you shall know it better to take precautions for such high amounts, all you can do now is to ask your landlord if he can give you some time to pay it and explain him the situation.

I was my fault rushing to get the bills sorted.

I just want him on negative he will be scamming people right now.

1. You should have checked all his feedback. He was marked as a  potential scammer.
2. Did this trade happen in PM? If so, you should have traded in your thread. I am positive someone would have warned you there.
3. Never use bill money to gamble with.........ever.

Tittiez also scammed me. Now he is not replying.

That's what the trust rating is for. You put a negative trust rating on the account if you were scammed or strongly believe that the person is a scammer. Although I'm surprised that the people do not read the account's trust ratings on here. Sorry for your loss OP, but you should've read his trust ratings as it's already known that he is a scammer.

Account Tittiez sent me this exact message when I was about to sell 0.04 btc.

I'llgive you $28 Skrill for 0.04BTC

While at that time even on 1:1 rate 0.04 btc were about 24.68 USD. Now when I would sell them for skrill I thought I would get less than 1:1 rate as that is how it works and the message of Tittiez made me wonder. Unfortunately I forgot to write here about it, but now that I saw this topic I can confirm that account is compromised 100%. Sorry for your loss.

Not always but when you sell them on exchanges.

Edit: Next time OP since you had all your savings in bitcoin, use well known websites like coinimal.com to do all your selling and buying of bitcoins. You will lose some from the conversion as rates will be lower in exchanges but you will be sure that you get what you paid for.
