I am looking for a lender to lend me 15 BTC until the 24th of April.

I receive a Student Loan and a grant on  23/04/2012 ... 13 days from now. I can provide proof of this if you want. I need a loan of ฿15 to cover me until payday. I am going to be using this for normal every day purchases, mainly food.

Message me if you are interested. I will pay 10% on the Loan, so 16.5 BTC on Payday

I have already been contacted by a lender. And as they know, i have full government issued ID, proof of loan repayment and proof of address. I treat BTC loans the same as normal loans.
And no, i'm not one of those people who ask for more and more, its very unlikely i will ever ask for more than 25 BTC.

That sounds better  Smiley. We have a long history of loans going awry, so all caution is needed when dealing with one.

He made it clear the purpose of the loan was to cover expenses rather than to build reputation.

registered 5 days ago, quick posts, blurry photo, heads straight to lending section, urgent, getting paid "soon"

how many more red flags do you need?

I could be wrong I guess.

PROOF?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=75629.msg837818#msg837818 - Asks to buy Bitcoins via Western Union
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=76151.msg844545#msg844545 - First post out of Newbies section and he's selling hardware

And of course there's this thread where he's already asking for hand outs.  Cookie cutter scam IMHO.  But if it isn't, he pretty much cut off his own head with his own postings.

Congrats!  You should post the loan details here so you can build up your public reputation.

Almost all borrowers with your post history profile are scammers.  But, you are right, there is a small possibily that you are not one of them.  Time will tell.

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security.  Read all about it here:  http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/  Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

Most likely someone with a low post count and just registered within the last couple months.  Within a few days expect him to chime in on this thread how sylkyx paid him back in full and on time and how he wouldn't hesitate to lend to sylkyx in the future.

sylkyx,

FYI:  If you are trying to build a public reputation then you need to publicly declare your loan(s):  who you borrowed from, what addresses are used for the transactions and the interest rate you are paying, etc.

If you do not care about building your public reputation then, carry on...

He's back... and now with a new sob story, inconsistant info and a rush, rush to get loan money....

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.

I'm starting to suspect that there is a line somewhere, you know, like the line in a supermarket cashier, where dudes are all waiting eagerly to get scammed.

I'm starting to think the same. Practically anyone called out by us has been proven to be a scammer, to the extent that I'm feeling sick and tired to call another one out. I called HonorMe out on his first attempt to get a loan - I won't say how but those tards are really obvious. We should actually start to reinforce some anti-scamming rules over here.

I look away for a few minutes, and this guy gets confirmed.  Probably because none of his stories stacked up and I kept with my decision not to lend.  I hope no one got too burned by this.

For reference, the initial request I received was 600, then 300, then 100, then a couple at 75.
