Need Help - Bitify Escrow System

[Soldierswitlittlefaith]

Hello fellow trader, I need help from trader's with profound experience.
So, let me try to make it brief, I have been selling on bitify  without any success but,
recently I made two sales. The fund was held since, the buyer used escrow.
 
After delivery, I log-into my account and marked this item as "SHIPPED)
A few hour's later,  I got another msg from bitify support requesting that I should update
my profile by adding payment Info's regarding to transfer of my bitcoin.

So, I updates my profile by adding one of my wallet which I've used for receiving btc in the past
via localbitcoins.com

Waited for about 2-3 days, log-into LBC account, there was no btc or proof of incoming
transaction.  Being new,when it comes to selling on bitify.com. I taught there is
something wrong with the first wallet, so, i created another wallet this time on block chain.com
Copy and updated my profile again for the 2nd time but, no update in regards to this payment.

Again, I updated my profile again by adding a new wallet address from block chain.
A few days later, I log-into the associated email address only to find a notification that
The transfer of fund into the indicated wallet (that is first wallet from LBC) was scheduled
within the next 3-4 hour's.

I was a little bit relaxed after reading this email. So, I went back, log-into the first account
which was associated with LBC.there was no btc or proof of incoming transaction.

Finally, I decided to get in contact with the support team of bitify.
Below is a copy of their response:

Hello There,

As per the email advising you of the payment release. Your funds will be sent within 4-8 hours.
The funds have now been sent and have cleared via TXID:
https://blockchain.info/tx/81cfea58b2ab3da9b4c86c284868fd6262952a5a433fd498b9040b99a1a264d2

--
Regards,
bitify Customer Support

====================================================

From that time till now I've sent up to two msg's to them without any response. I presumed
They might be busy but, now I beginning to be skeptical especially now that I have
made another sale (in escrow)

Pls, I need someone who can help me check & explain to me the statues of the
transaction above.

Thanks

It's confirmed. Seems they bundle transactions and send to many addresses at once to automate the process and save on fees.

Each address on the right side of your link has received the amount specified next to them.

[BitMaxz]

Can you share with us which address you are using and post it here?

So that we can check if your address is included from the TXID you posted above.

if your address is there you should receive the bitcoin sent from bitify. If you haven't received it yet to your wallet there is a problem with your wallet you currently using.

[Pmalek]

Is one of these addresses yours?

The address you copy/pasted should be in this list.
If it is but you have not received the bitcoins check the balance of your address on a blockchain explorer. If the funds are there there might be a problem with your client, in this case LocalBitcoins.

If your address is not in the list you might have been infected with a clipboard virus that changes the address you copy and replaces it with an address of the hacker. Try and copy/paste the address again and double check it to see if it is indeed the same address or a different one.

Dear Pmlek, the 9th wallet address on the list  seems to be mine.
The one  that started  with 1ARA........7R

Thanks

[Soldierswitlittlefaith]

In addition to request above, I would also  like to find out if, it's possible
to know whether the indicated wallet address (1ARA6EKDtfsLbyGrNBwLRL8wskRqiyxW7R)
is associated with localbitcoins or block chain.com account? I have check both account,
I can't find any of such wallet address. But, I'm sure i copied that address
from LBC or from block chain.com

Thanks for your effort

I don't know about localbitcoins but in blockchain wallet you can find all used addresses in your settings>then Addresses.

If you can't find it from blockchain this address (1ARA6EKDtfsLbyGrNBwLRL8wskRqiyxW7R) might be in localbitcoins.


Honestly, I'm not using localbitcoins as a wallet it is a P2P exchange. Next time use a real wallet not localbitcoins because it's not a wallet.

Try to check localbitcoins and find the old addresses under receive bitcoins tab.

Thanks for your response. Yes, have just checked for series of old/used addresses in my block chain account. I found there is only 1 since, it's a new account however, I did not find the actual wallet address (1are6EKDtfsLbyGrNBwLRL8wskRqiyxW7R) in this list.
Also, I received another payment this morning(an escrow fund which was released into my block chain wallet )

Now, everything seems to be revolving around localbitcoins.com unfortunately, I have been using LBC as a wallet onsite & offsite so, I have developed strong confidence in the system over a period of time.

At this do you guys suggests that I contact LBC?
Perhaps, they know something in regards to this address
or the missing money.

Note : I am very sorry for bothering you people this issue.

Thanks

The last transaction to that address was made on the 10th of June and the money is still there - 0.00823164 BTC.
Before that the address hasn't been in use since 2017. Can you remember making these transactions back in 2017?
https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1ARA6EKDtfsLbyGrNBwLRL8wskRqiyxW7R

I also found another interesting thing. That particular address seems to have been used by another bitcointalk user. BitcSeo used it in 2017 and mentions it here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1775571.msg17965113#msg17965113

Are you the same user as BitcSeo?

Yes, thanks. Unfortunately my notebook where I have access to most of my credentials developed fault. Now, I am mobile device trying to recover some of these accountant. Thanks, the info's above was very helpful.

The wallet address in question now seems to be one of my old wallet but, at a moment, I trying to figure out if, its associated with blockchain or LBC.

Thanks for effort
Soldiers it little fairly

[Pmalek]

...I trying to figure out if, its associated with blockchain or LBC.

I used LocalBitcoins briefly a long time ago, in my early days. You had one receiving address there, nothing more. It is an online wallet service so I don't think you could change addresses unless you had multiple LBC accounts.

Besides, you would need to associate an email address with your LBC account. Search the emails you use for messages from LBC. There must be at least an email that confirm your registration. Log in to your accounts and check the addresses.

Yes, I have check all email addresses which are associated to bitcoin account.

Your previous msg before this one where you pointed that same wallet address has been used by a different bitcointalk account (which is me) gave me some assurance that the wallet was not under attack.

I'll recheck these email addresses let you know about the outcome.Strange enough I actually log-into thataccount in question,copy the address & updated my profile on bitify.

Thanks
Soldierwitlittlefaith

[Soldierswitlittlefaith]

@Pmalek,wow, it seems that I have find two different email addresses
connected to two different block chain account.

I know one of these account should be the newly created account
and the other is probably the old account which is also associated
the other bitcointalk account. I really hope this fund is in this account.

Unfortunately, I cannot log-in now to do PW recovery. However,
will keep you updated.

Thanks for yr time

I think that anyone who is serious about trading, and accepts Bitcoin as a primary payment method, should consider running a full node ( pruned or otherwise). It gives you full control of your wallet and real time monitoring of transactions. USB drives are so cheap now that the cost of running a node is worth paying for the peace of mind you gain.
