Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

its a scam.

look at name, has a period on the end, op doesn't.
When buying anything, triple check everything and ALWAYS USE ESCROW.

I'm addicted to hashpower and horsepower.

diff name, says his account is brand new. sr member i would assume where a sig goes. look at the real boozer and you will see the sr member is in a diff location, and .5 btc is way to much for a 7950.

edit: left him negative trust

also if you have to ask because you are not sure, chances are its a yes.
unless you were asking 'is it legit' hmmmm in which case my advice does not apply..

The PM you got is a scam because the username is "boozer." and not "boozer". It's obviously a scam attempt trying to impersonate a presumably legitimate member.

Deal with the real boozer and not the scammer one that ends with a period. Do your trade in public in the thread
