Re: [ANN] SebastianJu - Free Legendary Escrow Service - Escrowed over 8150 BTC
There is really no legitimate reason why MintJellyToes would not be able to allow Sebastian access to his polinex account, at least not in my eyes.
are you kidding! give a random person on the internet access to your funds on an exchange?
do you give randoms on the street access to your online banking too?
i think its pretty clear no one has claimed those funds as of yet, and MintJelly showed ample proof that he owns those funds.
Sebastian is just turning the blind eye hoping MintJelly gives up and he gets to score the funds.
An exchange account is very different from online banking details. It is trivial to withdraw all funds from an exchange account and an exchange account is going to not be associated with your RL identity, and has little/zero value. So a worse case scenario is that MintJellyToes withdraws any coins that he has deposited on his exchange account then gives Sebastian access to his polinex account so he can confirm the transaction was actually from MintJellyToes.
Correct. I would even be fine with some other trusted person on the forum checking his account out. No problem with that. As long as Mint doesn't fear that that person can see hundreds of coins in there or see connections to scams.
AFAIK, no one else has claims the funds, but that will not stop someone from attempting to claim the funds in the future. MintJellyToes has not shown proof that he sent the funds in question.
Based on the limited information available, I would say that Sebastian is currently in the right. If you (or MintJellyToes) can provide some additional context to why a refund is being requested and the exact terms of the escrow then this may change (although I somewhat doubt it).
edit: if the coins came from an exchange, then I do not even understand how MintJellyToes expected to get the ICO coins if the ICO had not been botched.

Exactly. I think it is only one of these standard sentences that extortioners use. I don't have food for my kids, need medicine, grandpa is sick and so on. I'm sure it works on other escrows that don't have a big reputation but i certainly DON'T like the way this forum turned into a playfield for extortions and threats. I'm escrow to stop scams and i do that when i can. And surely i will not bend what is right or wrong only because someone thinks he must threaten for $20.
