That is not me, jetset220, posting messages about selling coins. My account was hacked today and someone is using it to rip off forum members. I only use escrow. I suggest you only use escrow.
The scammers are hacking accounts with a number of post and credibility and ripping off other users.
I cannot post outside of the newbie forum again. So, be warned. jetset220 is my hacked account and the scammer is using it to rip you off.
I did not even receive an email telling me that my email/password had been changed. This forum sucks.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

It's not the forums responsibility, but implementing two-factor auth is relatively simple and will prevent so much drama and scam accusations stemming from hacked accounts
