There are two outcomes
1- the op got fished and a well respected member got taken for a decent amount of bitcoin
Well, thats what I'm asking for proof of! A simple txid + the original messages from the scammer. If admins here can check inbox messages and confirm this then the case would be "solved". Why would greenplastic claim he sent the BTC if he didn't? Not necessarily to guilt trip me into sending him coins, but to get out of this deal when he got cold feet for some reason.
