Indian localbitcoins scammer list

[playboy654]

Looks like localbitcoin removed high risky payment methods,even Paytm is not much available these days so we can trade scam free on localbitcoin if we don't have intention to scam anyone.

There is a so many way to scam in localbitcoins, even you can get payment from hacked accounts, it's happened with me too once.
That's why I avoided fully localbitcoins trader who is not very trusted.

If we want to have certain terms and conditions for trading on LBC we can create advertisements where we can add identity verification in that case hacked account can be avoided.

Thanks for creating the important thread lol that guy, Deepak Chawla scammed me of around 4000 INR in the year 2015 early. I heard in news he got arrested few months after, I am still astonished how I got into his trap. But I was a complete noob then and didn't know much about escrow on lbc. This thread is a real need at this time for lbc traders.

This DEEPAK CHAWLA is a serious scammer and need to be reported to Cyber Crime immediately .. I see this fucker scamming around pretty long time . Like his only profession to scam people .

SCAMMED me on 7 March 2017, promised to pay Bitcoin worth Rs 25000, made the transfer and he just vanished. After some time i knew i was scammed and bastard just flew away with money, after that i did my research and came to this thread. After gathering all the details, i approached cyber cell Bhopal, finally the case was registered. I had to visit cyber cell quiet many times, he own that Union Bank Account and the address that was in bank record was the same address from where he was arrested by Bhopal Cyber Cell Police after months. There was an article published for same in the Dainik Bhaskar News Paper and few more about his arrest. After few months the family of the Deepak Chawla approached me and begged me to take the case back, they had orders from court to Pay me back Rs 25000 for his bail, finally after i had to take that money back and he got BAIL. Till date the case is open in Bhopal's Court. He has to come every quarterly (approx) to court for his presence. From all this incidence i have learnt a good lesson and Deepak Chawla has also, as i sent him this message on whatsapp that i won't leave him without getting him behind bars.

That is awesome to hear that you nailed a scammer but what i did not understand is that how you got scammed and how he got the coins from escrow. I understand that you were using localbitcoins and how come you got scammed when the coins will be sent as an escrow and until you say that you got the funds how come he was able to convince you to complete the trade.

Money laundering from hacked accounts is the most of scam happens on localbitcoins,so you will actually receive money to your bank account and you will release bitcoins then everything will go normal for a week or so then you will get a call from bank or police about enquiring who send money to your account,return it or go to jail.

When you are dealing with P2P trading then the risk of getting the funds from hacked account is highly likely and there is nothing you cannot do about that, fortunately i only got one transaction in years and that too for a small amount in my bank account and once i got a query from the bank authorities i cleared it with them that it was done through P2P transaction and since there was a lot of transaction during that period it was difficult to identify my trade in the exchange, but somehow sorted with the bank authorities. But i was curious about the issue with iwassacmmed and how he got scammed.
