At 6:26 a.m today, I got a message from supercoingenius on localbitcoins. He wanted to purchase 3.741 BTC for $3200.
Around 7:54 a.m, I received a deposit of $3,001. I notified supercoingenius about the wrong amount, he then said he would create a new ad for the right amount.
At 8:37 a.m I released 3.522678 BTC to his account.
At 11:15 am, I was notified by Wells Fargo they gave back the $3,001 to the customer and they froze my account due to fraud.
I visited my local branch manager, talked with him for awhile. Showed him my localbitcoin receipt. He said there's no way I can get my $3,001 back due to the customer reporting it as fraud.
He said it's likely my account will get shut down and I will be banned from banking at Wells Fargo.
I'm a trustworthy user on localbitcoins.com. 100+ confirmed trades, Trusted by 15 people, Blocked by 0 people and Feedback score of 100 %.
I reported the user to localbitcoins and blocked his account. The user has not returned my Bitcoins. I will update this post if he does.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Any screenshots or any further evidence to back this up? Plain text doesn't really confirm you are telling the truth.

The guy might have used a stolen bank account so the funds might indeed be stolen... |

Do they have security footage? I wonder what excuse the guy used to withdraw money from your account. It's scary how they just gave him the money back without him having to fill out any forms or go through any official procedure. |

I'll see what happens tomorrow. Maybe I'll get a lawyer. |

Then you're pretty much screwed. The manager will always side with his buddy over you. And if you get a lawyer you'll likely pay more in legal fees than you lost. |

Here's a update I got this bullshit letter today. They gave my money to someone & they have the nerve to close my account! http://pic.twitter.com/czSXxMq7IgHere's a warning to people who accept cash bank deposits. I talked with multiple people at WF, a few said any WF bank manager can reverse a cash deposit upon request. I'm still fighting them to give me my money back. I know for sure I will never accept bank cash deposits again. In person face to face for now on. |
