Are you 16?
He is indeed 16 and apparently completely unaware on how close he is to fucking over his live offering services as an unregistered money service business Must you be registered as a Money Service Business to conduct services with a currency such as Bitcoin? When the money will be kept in bitcoin until the Bitcoin price rises again? Remember pay taxes when trading btc to dollars ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

IMO an escrow service is the hardest to start from scratch. It is basically required for you to have either a) Some existing trust - I don't care if your account is new because you want the name, but I do care if/that you started or have previously run a verified or trustworthy endeavor. b) Some publicly verifiable recourse options for people entrusting you - address, name, phone number. Like you said you're offering it as a person, so who is that person and how I know you won't run off? c) History. Kind of like a), this is like btc-e which *I* trust (not that you should, make your own judgments). I understand their desire to be anonymous, that's fine by me.
Just my 0.0002 BTC.
Answer to B is: Noah Kocevar 6527 Mallard Landing Fishers, Indiana 46038 +1-765-274-8924 Answer to C is: my original account is nkocevar, but I was driven away because people dont seem to trust 16 year olds, and people thought I was scamming, but really I was just a Bitcoin Entrepreneur with an early start. Alright I respect that. Here's some free consulting for you: 1. Get your own domain name 2. Allow your potential users to submit 'forms' instead of the open-ended 'contact' form. Also don't call it 'Contact', call it "Request for Escrow" and take down all the information you need without the user having to write some open-ended question (although do make that optional if they so choose). 3. Get out of the US. In fact, stop offering your services right now until you register your potential 'company' off-shore and as a business entity. You're in the wrong place to do what you want to do. 4. Don't put 'Testimonials' section up until you have some. Could you explain number 3 in detail?

Feel free to throw me a trust score ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You don't have to physically 'get out'. Just register a company somewhere outside of the U.S., such as Panama, or preferably any country that is bitcoin friendly. Isle of Man maybe? Different countries have different registration requirements, but usually the cost is minor <$1000, if not even <$500. Then you register a domain under that company's name, and basically everything you do it's just your 'company' that does it (aka company email, taxes if applicable, etc.).. Orr, a NOT RECOMMENDED but what I would personally do in your situation is operate as anonymously as possible like btc-e does where you register some domain in some random country then host in some other random country, using only bitcoin as payment and I HAVE A FEELING throwing a fake name on the ICANN domain registration (not sure what btc-e does, if anyone wants to chime in how they do it, go for it). Btw it's technically illegal to put a fake name on a domain registration but your site can be easily cloned and put up again in another jurisdiction. Your trust comes from fulfilling orders successfully instead of operating by government rules IMO, and that's what I would be looking for in this type of service. In fact, some services LIKE BTC-E are better off off-the-radar and I would consider more secure because of that.. Let me know if you have any other specific questions, but do note that I am no way a legal adviser nor am advocating you take any course of action. Just sharing some wisdom for a fellow free-thinker.

Thanks a lot. This is my personal account that I'm going to use from now on. Im still going to do this small scale though. All money I make will be taxed once I trade the BTC for cash... I already have a job, so I already get taxed.

Looks a lot like BTCourier.com, something that I myself launched over a month ago.. heh.
Anyhow, looks kinda sketchy to be honest.
Have any success yet? I see you have a nice domain name unlike me ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Get a premium domain. Check godaddy which offers .99$ when you buy your first domain. Then download your template and install it. Then look for people with small transactions to be done. With time, people will know you can be trusted and will start giving bigger contracts. Otherwise, no one will trust you

Whelp this just failed. Not only did you post the guys email, it shows you cannot be trusted with privacy of your users and their inquiries.
I suggest moving on at this point, you obviously have the wrong mentality for an escrow.
The guy was probably testing you anyway, and you just failed.

Had it been a real submission, I would not have done this... The only information I gave out was an email address... What upsets me more is that this was probably you.

Wasn't me (honest). But the point stands - what if he IS selling golden dildos? Who are you to judge what he is selling. That's the whole point of an escrow service, a neutral, unbiased trusted link between 2 parties and their transactions. The guy (or girl) could have been some gay camwhore selling his videos online to some other random guy - that should not phase you. If it does, then you shouldn't be operating an escrow service. Anyway, good luck either way, consider it a lesson learned.

The fact that you took images as stated previously and you even publicly posted an email address shows the lack of seriousness.
