Amount Scammed:  60$ USDT
Payment Method: USDT

Additional Notes: I have waited several months but no response. I thought the loan of Dark had been repaid as there was a loan which was about 2 years ago and there was no update Dark was away after the mixer ban. So, basically, the user defaulted about 750$ (including the loan of the Dark). As the user took a loan from Dark 2 years ago and was not repaid I think the loan of also not be repaid.

I see a lot of loan related neutral tags indicating active loans from DarkStar_ to different users that have not been updated for a year or more. It is hard to tell if the loan was repaid or not. OP I think you should not ignore those tags, especially if they still say the loan is active. It doesn't matter how long ago it was written.

Burning a legendary account for $60 is crazy, but now seeing that the other 0.01 BTC ~ has not yet been paid. It makes sense that the person behind that account won't pay up any more and will instead try to scam anyone else he can.

This is the typical bad traits of my fellow countrymen regarding loan. They frequently ask for loan and rely solely on the signature campaign earnings for payment. They can’t afford to pay the loan using their own job salary.

I’m very sorry for the loss @shasan. He decided to abandon his account after failure to join signature campaign. Flag supported.

DarkStar_ left a neutral trust that he has an active loan which he has not paid. But you borrowed him another loan. Did you not see the neutral trust that DarkStar_ left him? I think you should not have borrowed him the loan. But that is just my opinion. I may be wrong and that is yours to decide.

There are wicked people in this life. I can see examples on this forum. Just like this person as an example. I do not think he is coming back. Sorry for the loss. Flag supported.

I have also seen some of the defaulters that he has brought out, owning the same amount of bitcoin as Darkstar; we can't tell for sure if they have paid back those loans or not since Darkstar hasn't dragged them out, nor has he been active. 
 
But I also second that such tags should not be ignored when considering who to give a loan and who to not give, as an outstanding loan with another loan service should show that the person is not the payback type, although exceptions can be made depending on who the person is.

Maybe Shasan is considering the amount involved since it’s just 60$ for a Legendary member with background of being bounty manager. There’s some user that borrow money with shasan that has an existing loan. Also Darkstar is not by the time Shasan accepted the loan. The follow up neutral tag from DS was posted after Shasan gives loan.

This is a terrible loan default once again from a Legendary member that once active on managing bounty campaigns before.

I thought it's an old thread but then when checked the topic creation date I realized it's a new one and again another scam accusation! You are making the community tired to support your flags LOL [Sorry, it is not funny though]

Flag supported and left a negative tag too.

[Rikafip]

It seems like the situation with loan defaulters is escalating as the Bitcoin price is going up. Which is unfortunately not a surprise.

Sorry for your loss, Shasan. However, I do think there's a lesson to be learned here, such as not giving a loan to someone who already has a significant active loan from another member.

It is clear that this dishonest member, @goinmerry, has multiple accounts. After researching, I discovered that he also has another legendary account named @chaser15.

He has defaulted loans with the same amounts from you and DarkStar_ before, and his account was tagged. Now, he is repeating the same behavior using the account mentioned in this thread.

He has now lost two high-ranked accounts here on BTT, and I do not know how many of them he has left. However, it is worth noting that he will continue his activities on Altcoinstalks as he has his legendary account Teleported there. I hope that the bounty managers running signature campaigns there will blacklist this member. In any case, I will support this flag now.

[acroman08]

sorry for your loss, sashan.

the guy ruined his accounts just for a couple hundred bucks which he could've earned and paid his loans if he stayed active in the forum and continued joining the signature campaigns.

However, it is worth noting that he will continue his activities on Altcoinstalks as he has his legendary account Teleported there. I hope that the bounty managers running signature campaigns there will blacklist this member.

regarding his account on altcoinstalks, it seems that it hasn't been active since February. anyway, yeah, I hope signature campaign and bounty managers on altcoinstalks blacklist him.

Well, op said he thought that the user has or had already repaid the loan of Darkstar, or was going to repay; and this is why he possibly decided to loan him another.

And besides, thank goodness that the loan amount in question isn't so or too much, I mean the op can easily forgo $60 as this shouldn't affect his service in any way, but on the other hand, I understand that a lost money is a lost money, so @op, sorry for the loss.

It's really unimaginable how some persons can williningly destroy/sell their reputation for peanut, how much exactly is $60 that someone should sacrifice his or her bitcointalk legendary account for? Really confusing.

If you check my trust page, you will see that I love red tags. I am not tired of giving the bad ones negative trust.

It seems like the situation with loan defaulters is escalating as the Bitcoin price is going up. Which is unfortunately not a surprise.

When mixers were banned, signature campaigns reduced and payment also reduced which one of the reasons. But some people just got bad mind in a way they may later have the money but they will not pay because they have abandoned their account. It is even possible some may have alts.

Sorry for your loss, Shasan. However, I do think there's a lesson to be learned here, such as not giving a loan to someone who already has a significant active loan from another member.

Also this is part of what I posted and which is a good idea but he thought that he has paid Darkstar_ loan. The borrower can also lied to him that he has paid the loan but which is a lie. What I j think about this is that shasan should not have borrowed him the money unless he confirmed it to be true from Darkstar_.

Rather, I would say that the smaller number of signature campaigns causes this problem. Loans were taken, with a repayment plan through the signature award. Now many are left without it, and as the number of campaigns keeps decreasing, it seems quite demotivating. I guess it's easier to just leave the debt and leave the forum.

I get the feeling that DarkStar_ disappeared from the forum without finishing collecting the loans owed to him as a preventive measure after what happened with CM. After all he was the manager for many years. He didn't disappear immediately after but I think it's not a coincidence.

Lack of signature campaigns and generally lower payrates certainly doesn't help and its affecting the lending market, but I wouldn't discard the bitcoin price going up as another big factor.

For example, when goinmerry took that 0.01 BTC loan (December 7th 2022), bitcoin price was ~17k while now its ~67k which means almost 300% increase, and since we are still early in the bull run chances are that bitcoin price will keep going up and it will get much harder to repay the loan. That's one of the reasons why I would get loan from someone from bitcointalk only if my life depends on it.

[nutildah]

Dang, I remember when that guy was an up-and-coming sig campaign manager. He actually beat me out for a spot when I offered to be a manager for a project way back when. Sorry to hear about it. On the bright side, at least it was only $60 this time.

Who knows what led him to want to abandon such a well-established account for so little; a mystery of life circumstance I suppose.

[TheUltraElite]

One by one the loan defaults are coming out after years of waiting. No wonder Darkstar_ stopped giving out loans aka free money for these users out there back then.

Sorry to say this but @shasan's assessment has been poor in this case, an account which has been already late on a loan asking for another "quick" loan is very suspicious. But being a person of goodwill, they now have to bear this loss along with many other defaults.

Moreover they were running another account that was also accused of loan default.

You mean $60 is too much to repay?

You are having fun with the tags but in my case I am not much in such tagging business. Only when I see something obvious in front of me, I leave a feedback for it.
