Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

People don't scam for 10 dollars? Someone needs to send out a memo cause that's the most common scam.

i'm having a hard time buying btc and I'm verified. Trading with a trusted member and no luck. Sad  those $10 scammers are giving honest paypal people a bad name.

Doesn't matter if you're verified or not, all the paypal user has to do is claim their account was hacked and they'll get it reversed, paypal will expect the seller to eat the loss, so most don't use it. Most people don't use paypal for a lot of things, it isn't bitcoin specific. How many people on Craiglist or Armslist, for example, do you see accepting paypal? I buy and sell high dollar items there frequently, and 99% of people only deal in cash because it's one of the few payment methods that can't be reversed.

One of the Good thing that cash and bitcoin has in common. Its something that can not be reversed unless the other person agrees.  Grin

I can vouch for her, if that helps on anything, I have traded before with bitbridgett and it has always been smooth. she asked me to do this deal with a really good rate, but I just couldn't because I'm short on BTC atm and I don't really want to sell.

Doesn't have much to do with being a newbie either, even established accounts have pulled the "my forum account got hacked" bs.
