Just lost three bitcoins. One person asked me to send him bitcoins and after that he will send me money but he didnt. I know i was a fool. Can I get those back somehow?
Who was it?

Nope, it was a cheap lesson well learned. Do you know who he was, perhaps on this forum so we can be careful of him? Also, always use escrow.

Well, I'm sorry I don't buy this! How can you send 3 bitcoins in the first place, without knowing or using an escrow? It seems you're post hunting myfriend and everbody else in here joined the party with you. In case you did lost 3 coins... well.
it does sound outrageous, but i generally find people to be gullible.. so i wouldn't discount his claims at all.

Wouldn't a sane person get the money first before sending the BTC?

That is a bummer man. We are our own banks in the BTC world, next time be more responsible.

For those interested, I didn't know anything about escrows until I read this and started doing some research. Turns out blockchain's My Wallet service has a built in escrow service. https://blockchain.info/wallet/escrow
