I'm in for $212 dollars. Not a huge amount, but I have a vested interest. I'll keep up with this thread. Has anyone considered testing this address by mailing him? http://i42.tinypic.com/24yxp95.png

good idea but i'm sure he will never use that name account again, and is probably logged in with another account reading every post we make. We need to get the mods put a scammer flag on him. Turns the coins into red Xs and SCAMMER instead of Sr. Member
---EDIT---
Went to scammer board and made a new thread apart from the unpaid loan.

Lol coinbase is probably dealing with tons of people who put in buy orders at $1k+ and after the 3 days it takes for the transaction to clear ( With the current price under $700) their trying to cancel orders.... LOL. At least the $30k plus he stole from us is only worth about 20k now (If he didn't dump).... Coinbase responded with a "we are overwhelmed with the volume of support emails, and have not been able to get to this one"... Or something to that effect. Replied back to that they needed to look into it still.
Tried to get by the police station today, but work was spread out such that I couldn't leave for a while. Going to try again tomorrow but may have to wait until Monday. Not sure if there will be detectives there on the weekend, and I was told specifically to insist on talking to one, even if someone else took the complaint.

That way when someone sees the OP it will then have scammer marked on it. just in case some see OP and wants to buy without reading to the end

I dumped 0.46 BTC into this.
Unless I drive my van from Portugal to KnC pickup location in the other corner of Europe, I'm definitely out of direct Bitcoin mining.

Well obviously nobody is that stupid. Looks like he transferred money before agath's revelations, and that's just the screen shot he had saved for confirmation number etc. Btcminers signed his very first post GibbyD. If those photos are correct, guess he had something to do with Gibby's Donuts in Lebanon.. Try and find domain history about www.peermining.us as well? Not sure how to do that.

Actually we should probably warn mt gox too. I'm betting it's the same person, since less than a day after Coinbase shut him down, the buttons on bitcoinforsale switched over to Mt Gox

That's certainly suspicious. Will do, it would help if several other people alert them also.
