So i posted an add looking for a Jupiter, he told me he had one, And we worked out a price. then i asked for a picture to prove he had one and provided my email address before i sent him the money. He told me he had no working camera... "Chances of that VERY slim" But then i asked him to point his miner to my address for 5 mins so i can verify that way. And while i was writing this message i received an e-mail with a Trojan that set off my virus protection. And then he replied he already packed the Jupiter so he couldn't set it to my address. So just a warning DO NOT trust dragonkid! And don't give him your email address

Thank you for the alert. I have flagged his account with negative trust until this issue can be explained.

From one persons accusation with no proof, this is enough to flag his account? How did the OP know that the trojan is a wallet stealer? He said his virus protection stopped it. I get viruses sent to my inbox all of the time. I don't immediately think the last person that PM'd me was the one who sent it. Doesn't make sense.

Hmm good point, but combined with certain other metrics, it does appear that Dragonkid is highly likely to be a scammer.

Hmm yeah, you're right. I've removed the negative trust rating until the OP can provide definitive proof.

I also posted that I was looking for a Jupiter and he responded saying he had one, but couldn't provide me with a pic of one and would not use escrow. Kept insisting on 25-50% upfront. Also I'm pretty sure there is more than one person using his account as they kept switching between I and we.

On a piece of paper write: "I'm not a scammer" Place it next to the Jupiter and take a picture. Provide said picture of proof you really had a Jupiter for sale.

I'm just going to add my concerns to this thread: - Posted an ad for ASIC miners - Dragonkid sends me a PM about a Juniper he wants to sell - Dragonkid doesn't want to do escrow (I should have been more suspicious) - Dragonkid wants 50% before shipping and 50% after - Agree to pay for shipping in advance at 0.4 BTC (Another dumb mistake on my part) then 50% once tracking and proof of postage is provided - He sends a tracking number that is for a RoyalMail Signed For Item, then changes the number to one that isn't valid - Insists on the 50% as he has sent a tracking number - Can't/won't send any receipt or proof of postage - Demands 50% then demands 25% - When I say I won't pay until he provides this proof or the miner arrives he goes quiet - Apparently sent on a pre-9am delivery (It is now 10.42am and nothing...) with no information on the "tracking" numbers provided This guy is a scammer and I was stupid to send him 0.4 BTC. I have the full PM conversations if a mod wants to see them for proof. If the miner arrives then I will retract all of the above with a full apology but given the lack of escrow and the 50% then 25% demands I am not holding out hope. Will chalk this up to experience (much like selling 20 BTC in August and generally not buying more BTC )

Please post everything here.
I received a PM from one Jupiter seller - not so sure if it's the same guy with multi-BCT accounts.

If they want any money upfront, refuse escrow and can't provide you with a picture of the Jupiter. Doesn't really matter if it's dragonkid does it? Don't do it!

Looks like he tried to sell a Jupiter to at least 3 people and can't prove he even owns one.
