Hey guys. Recently had a absolute horrible expierence regarding buying an ASIC off of a guy.
I seen a guy on cryptsy chat selling at first 2 7970 GPU's then I seen him trying to sell an avalon mini 60GHS. I thought nothing of it as I see that regularly. It was for 3BTC. Now I had been saving 3BTC for a very long time, I have no mining power so I relied on little jobs here and there for people to gain my BTC. I had been saving that for over a year. I worked for every bit of those coins for so long.
Anyway, I told him first that I wanted to use escrow. He said he would BUT I would have to pay the fees for it. Since that 3BTC was
all of my BTC, I had no way to pay those fees. So he said "why don't I send you my ID or something" so I thought that was alright and told him okay. I should have just stopped there and said no.
I send him the BTC, and he said that was great and he would send it off on the next business day.
I havent heard from him since

It makes me sick that people like me have to work so hard to get anywhere, but people like him feed off of others honesty and laugh it off? I have been an honest person my whole life and I consider myself a good person, but scum like him can lie and cheat and they get what took me a year in a matter of seconds by lying and cheating.
And I know there are gonna be comments like "You should have used escrow" and "It's nobodys fault but your own" but I couldnt afford the escrow

I am really distraught over this and hurt aswell. I now have no Bitcoin to fund my projects, so everything that I worked for will be shut down.
