What happened:: Im new and trying to sell my BTC, a got a pm from Dreamer BT with his telegram @SamPatell, then he agrees to all my fees and even agrees to buy in Odessa (after i said don't think London is possible), then i get added by another guy @RichardNewell with the same idea, we agreed on escrow Monbux, then i read the topic and it says he doesn't provide escrow anymore and some scam accusations (telegram scams) anyways in like 2 minutes i get added by @MonbuxBitcointalk, and he gives me the key a PGP key signed by him, BUT refuses to PM me here after i ask for an e-mail at least his messages goes to spam and i get anti fishing message, so I asked for PM or other confirmation and go refused, this 2 guys (I think the same) proceed to tell me no escrow will ever PM me etc, then we agree on another escrow tomatocage1 and i get an email from him and also - https://prnt.sc/v5ddrt, so I refused him too and asked for PM only or make a public topic deal, end of story - Sorry for the long read but it's my first try to deal here and i felt like sharing this

Good to see that as a newbie you are giving priority to forum PM rather than email or telegram chats and its the thing which can save many newbies from getting scammed.  After reading your description it seems to me that whenever you get agree with him to use escrow service for your bitcoin selling you may shared the escrow name with him and he tried to make you fool by sending emails from similar looking email address.

Though your story isn’t complete and kinda hard to get exactly what you are trying to say. I think you are trying to say that the same user have used multiple account and contacted you to complete the deal. Whenever you cancelled one then he came through another one and tried to act like trusted escrow service providers. Right?

Sorry to say that you haven’t added enough evidences on your topic and i will suggest you to add your conversation screenshots to make your accusation stronger.

You can use this escrow service  Escrow Service of Bl4nkcode [Active] and his service is Active now. Don't forget to send him PM first.

When you are going to use escrow from the forum then you should keep in mind a few things. First of all do not use escrow via telegram, no matter who has added you on telegram chat. First, verify the escrow via forum PM and ask his telegram username to make easier communication. After that, you should ask to sign the latest message included all the details about the deal because there is a chance to make you fool by using the old sign message which has been done during other escrow. So it's mandatory to ask a sign fresh message only to deal with you.

By the way, here is a list of a few trusted escrow, you may go ahead with what I said above. All payment information should share via forum PM, otherwise, even you can't open a scam accusation.

Nice to know that you are vigilant OP. I really want to tag and flag DreamerBT before they finally scam anyone because there is some other evidence connecting him to other profiles  Rambotnic a.k.a. Boombl4 a.k.a. OldSamurai a.k.a. Psomus, a troll and scammer.

He is also found of using the trick of trying to impersonate popular escrow providers like in this case - user Boombl4 is a SCAMMER using fake bitcointalk monbux escrow to fool people

@ Liberty_c, Is it Possible to provide more screenshots of your telegram conversation with the scammer?

As much as I'd like to red tag him right now I agree that screenshots of the conversation are at least required. All the warning signs are there but some people will ignore all of them if the "-1" is not in front of their trust score. This guy (Rambotnic) has been doing this for years... what an idiotic waste of a lifetime.

I have already suggested "OP" to share more evidences and in this case his telegram conversations are important. Although most of time this kinda scammers erase all their footprints and clearing telegram chat history is one of the common thing they do after not getting successful.

Looking forward to see updates from thread creator and this guy did a good job by ignoring  telegram based deals which saved him from getting scammed.

@OP, please help us tag this scammer. What you need to do, post a screenshot of your PM where the scammer sends his telegram username. Then make a short video where you have a chat with the scammers (if not yet deleted by the scammers) and upload it on YouTube or somewhere and post the link here. So we can tag the scammer and you may create a flag against him.

It's to notify you that forum PM chat is verifiable by moderators, so faking this isn't worthy at all. Seems the scammers have a few untrusted negative feedback where he had tried the same thing before. So, it's quite important to prevent him.

They are really very past and they have trained themselves to that and it's part of their strategy when they are caught, months ago I have a conversation with one scammer, when it's obvious that he cannot make me accept his offer and I become suspicious, he immediately blocked me and erase our chat, they are not going to deal with you further if they think you will be stubborn to what they are offering.

Congrats on not falling for this scam. You are not newbie in a sense because you know what you are doing. To all newbies out there, this is an exemplary on what to do before doing any online transaction. Cheers! For the failed attempt to scam you.

Well, DreamerBT had a meltdown (not inspired by me, directly) and proceeded to tag me and several other people with similarly worded tags that he's left for me in the past. So that wraps up that non-mystery. I'm sure he'll be back. This guy (Rambotnic, Boombl4, Old Samurai, Psomus, SamuelJobs, DreamerBT) is too stupid to realize he sucks as a scammer.

@OP even though you never followed up here it was good on you to avoid getting scammed -- you were really paying attention, so good job.

Yes I forgot to make Telegram screens, he insta deleted all 3 conversations - Escrow one included.
