[BTC] Small loan required

[Grumpster]

Hi everyone,

So, I recently got scammed here at BitCoinTalk by another user. Thankfully, the amount I got scammed for (roughly $55) wasn't an awful lot, however it has set me back a long long way in my pursuit of making money online and I was doing very well before this happened.

I had some tried and tested methods and had raised an initial sum of $6.20 BTC into $55 in around 2 weeks using minimal effort, which I'm sure we can all agree is not a bad turnaround at all.

Anyways, to summarize, I'm looking for somebody to lend me $50 in some cryptocurrency form, preferably BTC, and in return within 2 weeks you'll receive back $70 BTC. That's a 40% return on your investment within 2 weeks.

The main methods I use are trading on smaller exchanges (you get better) deals and this is how I made most of my money so far. If anyone has any questions then let me know... I'm happy to discuss with any potential investor via PM if they want further details and are seriously interested in investing.

Just because I am a new user please don't immediately dismiss this request.

No, I don't have real value of collateral to offer, however I am willing to talk with any potential investor and ensure that they're fully happy with the deal, and also provide regular updates. We could even work something out whereby I pay back in a few installments so you get your $50 BTC back (and the $20 interest) quicker.

This may not be the best rate offered for such a small loan, but it's the best I could reasonably assure and still make it worth my time too.

Thanks everyone for reading and feel free to ask any questions in my PM box.

Tom

Hi beerhumbug,

You can check the trust rating I gave to the user here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=227066

I have posted in a scam accusation thread about said member and will make one of my own if they continue to refuse to refund.

Thanks for your concern, do let me know if you have any questions RE the investment

You got lucky trading... you have no more chance to be able to pay this back then somebody gambling with it.  Besides, use the $55 you just made if your method works so well, then you get to keep all of the profits

Hey cooldgamer,

I don't think I got lucky trading. I think I studied the markets pretty well and predicted rises and falls in different altcoins very well. I believe that statistics is something I'm very good at and it showed.

As I said, I would use the $55 I made but unfortunately another member here scammed that from me... I guess I was stupid to trust, but hey, it's done now and I can't go back on it.

This is a relatively small loan in comparison to some I see being asked for and I have the clear means to be able to pay this loan back with significant interest within 14 days.

Thanks
Tom

What the fuck.  So you gambled on GrandRitzCasino and lost.  You volunteered.  Nobody forced you to play on the site, but you lost and now your crying? 

And I am sure that you lied in at least some of your claims.

I don't think you understand. You shouldn't come to a thread and start spewing when you don't know the facts. I was contracted to carry out a review of GrandRitzCasino. During the course of the review, I deposited personal funds. Upon doing this, not only did they withold the promised bonus, but they also did not carry out their part of the bargain as they're not provably fair as they claim.

Therefore, the casino is a scam.

Ok...  and yet you are the only user claiming this right now? -_-

Who contacted you to carry out this review, and why did they make you deposit personal funds???

I am not the only user claiming this. You should use the search feature sir. There is a popular 8-page thread in the Scammer Accusations forum about this site being a rip-off and falsely claiming that they're a provable fair site.

I've been carrying out reviews for a small up-and-coming website called CryptoInfinity. I simply used personal funds because I hadn't had problems using personal funds beforehand.

I don't know why you came here and decided to turn this topic into something it's not intended to be. I appreciate your intentions of ensuring that nobody was ripped off or anything by me, but I'm not like that and quite honestly I find it very rude that you started posting here criticizing me without actually first doing a small amount of background research.

Well i apologize for being so rude.    
I'm still wondering why you decided to invest this much money (in your terms) before using this search feature and pulling up the 8 page scam accusations.

Also, HOW did you exactly lose the bitcoins?
I'm more interested in this, not the loan itself, because you have failed to read: No collateral, no loan.
Lastly, I apologize for sounding so harsh and being a dick.. that was a misinterpretation on my part.

0. Newbies, NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH OTHER NEWBIES, EVER.[/b] There are plenty of veteran members to do business with and ALWAYS use escrow. If you're a newbie and you're doing business with another newbie, there's a 100% chance that you will get scammed (or you're a scammer yourself).
1. New account (usually created within the last 3 months, plus or minus)
2. Low-medium message count with vapid posts of little to no contributory value
3. Use of a seemingly realistic first/last name as their forum account name
4. Signs posts with full name
5. Straight out of Newbie mode right into Lending (requesting a loan of course)
6. Straight out of Newbie mode right into Currency Exchange (PayPal, Liberty Reserve, Western Union)
7. Straight out of Newbie mode and selling gift cards/codes/Steam games of any kind (they'll often be purchased with stolen CC info, leaving you holding the bag later on down the road)
8. Any user blatantly claiming to be female
9. New user trying to sell an Apple iAnything
10. Sob stories asking for handouts
11. Never send to a Bitmerch.com address for escrow!!!
12. Scammers will try to scam you out of amounts as little as BTC.001 or even less. Do not think that just because the requested amount is trivial that it's any more legit than a 1000 BTC loan request.
13. Any user who tries to get you to use escrow through Escrow.com is a scammer, PERIOD.

1. Check
2. Check
3. Check
4. Check
10. Check

Exhibiting any one of the typical scammer characteristics is enough to raise a red flag, and you've managed to nail 5 of them. I'm not saying you're a scammer, but without collateral, you could just take the money and walk away and what would you lose? A generic forum account name that took all of 3 clicks to make?
