What happened:: I needed some Paypal funds for my btc, and I couldn't come to terms with anther member but now I wish i have because i have a frozen account. This idiot sent me $130 and then demanded me to send the btc, but of course i let it sit in there to make sure its all good and what do you know! A block happens and I get a phone call from paypal. He used a fraud account and ficticious name. Credit card funded with it was not his. SMH Its my own fault. SO now they are holding my money hostage.Scammers Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=351392 Reference Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=678650.0Amount Scammed:$130.00 Payment Method: PayPal Proof of Payment:  PM/Chat Logs: I'm on localbitcoins. U could charge back Paypal. So think about that. I'm going out on a limb trading with you.
I haven't done that before, except you don't send me my BTC, that's when I'll mail Paypal for fraudulent activity. You have my BTC address in your mail, so send it once I send you the Paypal. just email me when it's sent and your btc will be on it's way. I've sent you $130 Paypal. I'm expecting the BTC now 1PEUiKr4CxqdmBdxBKD31NvEZT8s5Rwyqv [/b] Additional Notes: I also have email conversation if they are needed. I should have known.. but i played fire with fire taking his paypal. Oh and his name is not the name from the paypal sending he used a fraudulent name.

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

This is what happens when you deal with newbies instead of more trusted members. You did have several offers from others here, why would you deal with a member with no trust and paypal?
Pretty sure that user is an alt of naira4dollar, who has several accounts and keeps creating new ones here. This was also probably a man in middle scam, whoever sent that paypal to you probably got scammed themselves then charged back.

I even warned on his trade that you will not find seller but can't help after that. |

I'm warning eveybody about newbies and paypal, even paypal alone but nobody listens as the scammers always promises they won't do it.
Do you guys think that scammer would someday admit that he is going to scam you? If so then something is wrong with you.

It's never a good idea to accept a reversible form of payment such as PayPal for BTC. If I remember correctly, chargebacks can happen up to 90 days after payment. If you still want to sell BTC for PayPal then not selling to newbies with zero trust and/or requesting ID is probably a good idea.

Dear GOD/GODS and/or anyone else who can HELP ME (e.g. MEMBERS OF SUPER-INTELLIGENT ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS): The next time I wake up, please change my physical form to that of FINN MCMILLAN of SOUTH NEW BRIGHTON at 8 YEARS OLD and keep it that way FOREVER. I am so sick of this chubby Asian man body! Thank you! - CHAUL JHIN KIM (a.k.a. A DESPERATE SOUL) P.S. If anyone is reading this then please pray for me! [ www.chauljhin.com ] |

If you didn't sent any btc to him then you just learnt a big lesson without investing anything, you can re-sell your btc to someone else but I wouldn't recommend Paypal.

A year or two ago there were some scams, but lately it seems that its totally has gotten out of control. If the person doesn't have a very good rep, stay away.. its a shame that its come to this, but since bitcoin is very anonymous one must take all the care they can.
