Hi guys

I have been trying to buy some bitcoins recently on ebay and come across this must have bitcoin price 10 bitcoin for £480 couldn't resist..

I message the guy named bitcoinfridge on ebay and said if he would do me a deal of 6 bitcoin for £300 as that is all I had to put in.

He said he could do it no problem but would have to send money via bank transaction as his paypal is past his monthly limit.. So stupidly I paid the guy £300 via bank transaction...

This was on the 15th of April, so I messaged the guy saying that its all done and waited for the bitcoin to come to the wallet but never did..

So I kept messaging him where is my bitcoin, he kept responding saying that the money has not gone into his account even though it was a fast payment transaction so I thought no problem I will wait 24 hours see if he has it then.

Messaged him the next day to find to my horro rthat this guy is no longer on E-bay or the item is no longer for sale..

Contacted E-bay to see if I can get my money back but they were no help at all as I paid via bank transaction so this is classed as outside E-bay sellings...

So I thought I would do a bit of digging on this guy and found out that he is running a website to sell bitcoin at cheap prices

This is the information I got from him so far: -

Web address: - https://bulk-bitcoins.[Suspicious link removed].com

Wallet address: - 1L911NCNficyao9GdUmPPnsML7aNHcZi2B

Sort code: - 08-71-99

Account No: - 31777616

Email address: - deanroberts782@yahoo.co.uk

Claimed home address: -
Bulk-Bitcoins
14 New Street
Ceredigion,
Ceredigion
SY23 2AT
United Kingdom

So guys please try to avoid this site as it is nothing but a con site

Sorry for your loss but would you buy $100 bills for $40 from some guy on the street?

Bitcoin is digital cash.  Nobody sells "cash" 50%, ever, under any circumstances.  It is ALWAYS a scam.

MTGox scares me a little, all these market sites going under. I have money that I can technically afford to loose if Bitcoin did go under and fail but I would rather not get it lost trying to buy coins and then the site going down with my money. I do get offers for UK-BT but they are pretty over priced, hey in a years time I could look back and think wow I got offered coins that cheap why didn't I take it. But that's the fun of Bitcoin ay, never know what is going to happen.
