Why would you pay with bitcoin on aliexpress?
It was www.alibaba.com not aliexpress

Why would you pay with bitcoin on alibaba without escrow or protection of any sort as you did not use valid Alibaba payment methods?
I see what you mean, but it was in the heat of the moment. I should have left the conversation when he said he does not accept paypal, creditcard.
But in this case it was not the seller that fooled me, someone hacked his account, posted a product, sold it and then removed the product.


It's essentially the same thing besides a few features anyways. This kind of scam happens even on sites like eBay where people post a cheap item or rare item and delist it as soon as it sells. All the methods he offered would have no way of reversing, big red flag.
