Hey there! As stated in my intro, I'm pretty new to bitcoin and honestly want to get into buying some on the board as soon as I get out of the newbie zone. I can only really exchange USD via Paypal, Moneypak, and CIM right now, but really prefer MoneyPak. Are there any dangers with MoneyPak that would hinder a trusted member from trading their bitcoin for my moneypak if I sent the code first? Just kind of want to get an idea of how things like this work for a newbie around here so I don't embarrass myself in the Currency Exchange section Smiley

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Thank you Cheesy

I got registered on bitcoin-otc's wall of trust, though I don't think I show up until I make a trade. GPG looked kind of confusing, but really wasn't. Waiting for a PM back from someone there regarding a MP-> BTC trade, thanks guys Smiley

many are offering free escrow services, so if you are buying from newbie like you, escrow is good.
