So I bought something from someone and sent them bitcoins. They didn't send me the product I bought. I know their bitcoin wallet address and can see the activity on the address. Is there a way to report or find out who they are? Thanks.

I don't think there is anything you can do. What did you buy?

I am going to sound really stupid for this, but he was on craigslist and held a conversation via email until I sent him the bitcoins

gutted, mate. That totally sucks. I've set up a twitter account that I hope will be part of an honest club of retailers and genuine sellers, but how can you be sure? Telephone conversation?

Always agree a $value on your bitcoin for item swap then you have a legal swap contract recognized in law.

can you guys help me get a good miner up. I was really counting on those fpga's but thats obviously not happening. I don't have that big a budget. And after this experience i am only willing to offer cash via paypal. Any help would be much appreciated.
