There should be a website for escrow, something a script should handle not a person.


im trusted and do free escrow

I am not trading just yet but when I am I might contact you to set something up.

I think he wasn't being serious.

He seems to know what he is doing and I don't think I could trust a script or a website to handle the money just in case that got hacked beucase I'm sure it would be a big target for hackers.

I was thinking a website of the level of PayPal.

Paypal wouldn't do escrow for Bitcoin I don't know any big websites/companies which offer escrow services for Bitcoin if you know any please let me see them.

He meant like PP not Paypal itself. There are Bitcoin escrow companies, but it's probably better just to use a very trusted member of these forums.

whats stopping the escrow holder from running and not returning any of the amount that was deposited what makes someone trusted and who would you recommened as a escrow?

Nothing but their reputation, so I'd check for evidence of that and trade history first. Somebody who has done hundreds of trades and has held on to 100s of Bitcoins at a time probably isn't going to run off with your Bitcoins.

hm.....and TF ran away with 4000 coins.... Sad

The thing is that you need someone to trust. If you can trust your seller than its ok. If not then you have to trust some other person to get the things done. If you think the escrow will take your money then don't use that escrow.
Look for feedback and comments.
