Ninja sent me a PM that he mailed it to me today.  I will keep everyone updated.  Our transaction was only a few days ago so I don't think it's right to jump to conclusions yet.  He has been responsive to my PM's throughout.

[bigfoot]

Sent me a reply saying he mailed it as well.....

[Ampix0]

I asked for my BTC back no answer back yet about it. If he does in fact send back my BTC or send a Touchpad I will apologize but I really don't believe it.

Every time I come on these forums there's talk about someone scamming someone.
I really hope this plays out to not be one of those cases.
Seems like anonymous currency is a double edged sword.
People think they can do whatever they want.
Time to grow up and be part of a society.

I actually thought about doing some sales with bitcoin (I've been around for a while and have a good rep as far as I can tell) but drumming up business might be hard when people 'expect' to be scammed.

-for those who sent him btc/$ I REALLY hope you're either reimbursed or Rec what you paid for.

This guy/gal was using 2 accounts while selling the Humble Bundle, if you attacked the seller he/she would come with a second account to defend him/her..

That's just bad news right there..

"i mailed it"

mailed it how? by waht shipping service and tracking #... even first class USPS mail has tracking #s to confirm the item is being sent but have no status updates along the way...

he did not mail you a touchpad and you lost that money... talk about being a spring chicken. I wouldnt send any money to anyone on these forums without a picture of the printed out shipping prepaid label and Tracking # on it in his hands with username written on a piece of paper, and i wouldnt send any money without escrow. especially users who do not have emails publicly listed.

[ampirebus]

okay what the heck? some how the user NINJA-- got their username changed to HOLLIE. i had 3 private messages with NINJA-- and then i click this topic and it says its made by HOLLIE and my private messages also say HOLLIE in stead of ninja again

[ercolinux]

It can really sound as scam, but I've to say that Ninja/Hollie orderd me 2 laser engraved cards and I still waiting for the money  , Stefanie also ordered  1 and payed quickly; the postal postal address is in Texas, while Ninja seems to live in Australia. Not that a 0,5BTC transaction is a big proof but it can be only a coincidence

[ampirebus]

well if hollie is in australia, the touchpads werent available outside of the US/canada for the sale price. only the united kingdom enjoyed the sale and it was very briefly lived.

[helloworld]

Info like that is trivial to find with Google, huh? http://www.theaustralian.com.au/australian-it/buyers-swoop-on-harvey-normans-discontinued-hp-touchpad/story-e6frgakx-1226119991630

Your refering probably to Ninja and not Ninja--. Unless Ninja-- sent me an empty box, my tracking number says that its been droped off at a UPS location.

[Ampix0]

Im so fucking pissed he stole 8 BTC is there nothing at all we can do?

[enygma]

I believe I'm in a similar boat with Ninja/Hollie. My saving grace was that the transaction was for MtGox USD, paid for by myself via Paypal. I'm currently investigating and filed notice with Paypal that the transaction may be fraudulent, but I let them know that I'm waiting until Wednesday, because I've contacted Ninja/Hollie and given him/her till Wednesday to complete the transaction.

My suspicions have arisen after 4 private messages and an email have been sent after money was sent with no response, so I plan to investigate this user in the meantime.

[marks1976]

It appears Ninja/Hollie got one over on me too.  I paid with paypal so I am going to file a claim today since I still have no responses from PM's.

[NINJA--]

I have nothing to do with this. There was another ninja here before me who changed their name to hollie.
