Help Sold account and got scammed

[Gekko star]

I sold my account https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=471336  and the guy who bought it refuses to pay me, he owes me $250 in btc.  

Can someone please help me get my account back or something. or please kick this guy off my account.

Edit: I didn't know account selling was frowned upon, why are people taking accounts as collateral in the lending section?

I'm leaving the btc world because of the crashing prices and constant stress it's causing me.

Got any proof that you tried to sell the account?  It certainly looks like it, based on the password and e-mail change but I'd like to see PMs or whatever you have before tagging the account.

This may be tough, as The conversation we had was on the account I sold and  also through the original e-mail which I also gave to the buyer when he purchased the account.

Then what do you expect people to do for you?

I think seller also to be tagged. Why only buyers?

It's not only buyers that I tag, but I want to see some proof before tagging anyone.  75% of me doesn't doubt that what OP says is true, but it would be such an easy thing to make something up for revenge or whatever.  OP deserves a neg in either case, I think, even though it's obviously a throwaway account.

Edit:  There's enough reasonable suspicion about this, so I tagged the account.  If he comes here and presents a strong counter-argument, I'll remove the tag.

Account selling is not prohibited but it's discouraged. I don't think this thread also belongs to Meta since you're already posted "Scam accusation" board too.

Why are you sold your reputation in the forum for just 250$ in the first place? I also Agreed with "Pharmacist" there's nothing to this matter with other members.

Honestly, other than the account getting tagged so members here know I could care less that you receive assistance.

I believe an Admin maybe a MOD, can review the messages on the account, even if they were deleted to validate the claim.

Seeing as there are many honest members on the Forum waiting to recover their hacked accounts, you have 0 chance of getting it back anytime soon.


Funny you came asking for help from a community, you obviously care to little about to just crash the account or walk away.

The buyer is already trying to participate in a campaign. I hope that, if it is true, he receive red tagbefore being accepted.

I know that the merit requirement is 550 but I have 500. We can negotiate a custom payment offer.

But what I found curious, is the amount of swearing in the posts to other users. It will not be missed if the account is deleted by mods.'

Scroll up, dumbass.

Are you all retarded?

You are especially dumb.  The answer to your question was right above your stupid question.

Fuck I love trading against the stupid and the lazy.

Nuke the account, and mark the IP as toxic.

I sent you a pm. My argument is pretty solid and the degrading of this account shouldn’t have taken place in the beginning. I will send over the pictures of proof via pm or here in a few hours. It appears to me that the person who started this thread doesn’t like the original owner of the account. I will speak with the original owner and send pictures of our conversation  after I send my proof I also want vit05 to be accountable for all the FUD he created in regards to this account.

Lol.. account sale is not a good practice. Are you account farmer ? Why you sold your account ? Why you handover your accout without payment ? There is no chance to recover account if you can't show solid proof. Account has  changed email & password recently but it doesn't mean you are the owner of account. Did you signed msg with btc address? If yes prove that account is your.

That means you bought account. Now your account is useless. More DT will tag you sure. Who is  the orginal owner it's not important. It's true that you bought account.  If you proved OP is wrong it dose'nt mean you will not taged.

Gekko463 have argument about ownership of account. Already he have given his own statement. It's well proven that he bought account from some one. So no question  to remove tag. More DT should be tag him for bought account. I have archived as a proof of his statement.

The owner and I are close friends. This person who started this thread wants to get in the way of t. I can easily return the account back to the original owner if this is going to become a problem. Anyway I’ll send the pictures over so I’m covered on my side of the story.

[cryptohunter]

glad you got scammed

I hope all persons selling accounts get scammed

Foul practise ruining the board.

[TMAN]

this is fucking funny...

like the drug dealer who got robbed and wanted to go to  the police..

how about fuck off for being an account selling cunt?

[Gekko463]

I sent in my proof. If anyone else is interested PM me and I will send it to you as well. The person who created this thread doesn't even know what he is talking about. He is a fraud.

[Steamtyme]

How it came to light that the account has changed hands will not matter .

To the community this is equivalent to identity theft/fraudulent representation. Regardless of the outcome the account will remain tagged in red to warn others it has changed hands.

[luckybar]

Looks like gekko463 already admitted he is not the original owner of the account.  So the red tag will stay on that account rendering it useless.

In other words, you sent your proof to me via PM.  Looking at it, it definitely does look like both sides held up their end of the bargain.  That doesn't change the fact that you bought the account, so my feedback is going to stay.  I don't support account buyers or sellers here, which is something everyone here should know.  I've been tagging account buyers & sellers since 2016, which tells me that you don't do any reading here and only want to earn money. 

I don't know why the account seller decided to make this claim, but it doesn't really change much.  I'd love to know if he's got any alt accounts here, though.

[LogitechMouse]

You have registered her since 2015 and you don't know that account selling is illegal or frowned upon??

Anyway, good to know that the account has red tag already making it useless at least.

And for you, its good that you got scammed since you are doing an illegal thing here.

I call it "Instant Karma". You don`t care about the forum, but about getting your money. Well, maybe you should think about before selling your account in here, and give up your name for a couple of hundred bucks.

Anyway, both deserve being red-tagged: the OP for being an idiot and coming here to complain about being scammed while doing something that is already discouraged; the second for an account buyer, whose only goal is to earn here by spamming the forum.
I just can`t understand how people can be so stupid to come here and ask for help after doing such a kind of activity.

Applause for both.

Besides, probably the Forum is a better place without you being around:

You can’t even spell “business” properly.

Stupid nigger.

250 USD for Sr.Member? Seems a fake to me. Why would anyone sell their only account for such a cheap price? Maybe you have like dozens of them and not value it. Anyway, honest members will stay away from deals like that and you'll only attract scammers. You deserve that.

That actually sounds reasonable to me, although I don't exactly have my finger on the pulse of the account sales market.  The reason why it'd cost so much for a Sr. Member account is that it now takes forever for someone--and usually an illiterate, spamming account farmer--to rank up that far.  For most morons who sell accounts chronically, I don't think they'd even be able to nowadays without resorting to merit-dealing, and they'd risk getting tagged for that.
