You learned a lesson what has been happened to you.never trust anybody when it comes to money. Money can do all things ,just like turning a good man into a bad one. Hope you get my what im saying.

LOL mate. Is this really true? I guess you just hand in over your bitcoin to the freaking guy. So he scammed you. Why did you do that? Do you know him personally that you trusted this fellow? I'm sorry, but this is really a hard way to learn how to protect your bitcoin. First, don't trust anyone, money is involved here so you know people will do everything to stole hard earn bitcoin. Again, I hope you learn your lessons very well.

so it's all in my PM log but he wouldnt talk through here or through email, demanded it MUST be through skype and came in with the pretense he wouldhelp me for a %of lost bitcoins

i removed my previous comment because it seems like i didn't understand what you meant at all, but going through your post history it seems like you had a topic here with a forgotten wallet password problem. correct?

and also is this the user you are talking about: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=154223

if yes then you should move the topic to scam accusation board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0
and provide the required information so that default trust members can tag him as a scammer ONLY if you can prove it.

sad to hear that buddy, by next time you need to be careful in all the people who you are talking with, next time dont give them your infos, be vigilant and wise,just report it to the admins to help you with your issue, to avoid that it might be happen again to another people the  suspect of yours need to be punished and been terminated to this forum.

There is nothing that people wouldn't do for money and that is to tru. Scams and frauds of all types are appearing every day and people are sow naive so fraudsters sometimes have realy easy job. Don't trust.people your don't know anything about and don't ever reveal your personal and financial data.

1) This thread needs to be in this section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0.
2) You need to use the proper scam accusation format (edit your original post):

Code:

[b][color=black]What happened:: [/color][/b]

[b][color=black]Scammers Profile Link: [/color][/b]

[b][color=black]Reference Link: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Amount Scammed: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Payment Method: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Proof of Payment: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]PM/Chat Logs: [/color][/b]
[b][color=black]Additional Notes: [/color][/b]

Your money is gone for good. Serves you right for giving your wallet file to some random scumbag on the internet. Do not deal with users that aren't trustworthy/don't have a verifiable trading history.

I would suggest the OP to make a thread in scam accusations or move this one to that section and post the accusation in proper format as Sir. Lauda has explained. It will be a warning for all the other newbies as well as members who may get scammed by that person in the future.

[Bluengold341]

thanks for the advice? moderators can i get some help?

I will say this ETC is the only wave of the future. It's systemic originality and robust active of the market (especially in the future through more well-run accurate exchanges) will beat out fiat currency any day. As far as I understand it (i know i'm a nub) crypocurrency is unique and the faith and value of such a product will never go away since it helps make function certain parts of the internet as opposed to a fiat or even gold/precious metal backed currency

[Bluengold341]

and All i was trying to do is get some help... make $9 an hour doign clerical work as this is to me is no bubble.. the thing .1 is around 500 dollars now.. that's not chump change to me..i even remembered the pw right after and our pm log will confirm..anyways not to panhandle but any amount ($00.1 will be appreciated) I have a lot of bills and dont live on a lot

[mchu168]

Wait, what? You never sent me a single bit of info. Why are you blaming this on me?

This is a joke.

Added me, and never sent me a single bit of information that could be used to steal his money. He never sent me a wallet file, any backups, or anything. This is ridiculous. If anyone believes this guy, I will honestly be in awe of stupidity. Why would I scam, when I was just trusted with 0.2 BTC in an exchange last night, and 0.5 BTC yesterday. Of course I paid up. You really think I stole your 0.1? This has got to be the worst assumption I've ever seen.

Post proof or this story is total bullshit.  Got it?  You can come in here slinging mud without facts.  I don't believe you and no one else should either without proof.

hilariousandco has left me negative trust over this, which is surprising. I would not have thought such a member would fall for this thread. A scam accusation does not make anyone a scammer, it is simply an accusation. And this is the dumbest accusation I've ever seen, which makes me wonder how someone could leave a negative trust over this. I did not steal anything, I am always an honest trader.

There's a strong possibility that your account is hacked or looks to be that way. You have no posts from November 04, 2015 until 2017. You could still very likely scam via Paypal as well. Can you provide any reasonable proof that this account belongs to you? Can you sign a message from an address associated with it?

This is no reason to leave a negative trust, I estimate around ~50% of active users cannot sign a message. This account has always been completely under my control. It's *possible* that I can chargeback the PayPal, that my account is hacked, or that I created Bitcoin. But a possibility, especially not a high possibility at all, is not any fair reason from my view.

I was sent the 0.2 Bitcoin first, without escrow. What kind of scammer would send the PayPal, when they have already received the BTC? I returned 0.5 BTC to a user after a trade failed to go through as well, and these amounts are among the smaller amounts I've been trusted with. If any action should be done, the poster of this thread should receive a tag for making such an unstrustworthy claim, which actually turned out to ruin my name....

Evading the question of whether you can sign a message doesn't help you, but I still say OP needs to post solid proof.   I agree with hilarious that it does seem suspicious and you could have hacked that account.   And you could be doing deals to lead up to a bigger scam.  So sign that message.
