It clearly shows 2 transactions, 0.00873000BCH and 0.06100000BCH so if your seller insist he didn't recieved anything from you, you probably got scammed

Unless (as seems likely) the seller wanted real bitcoins, in which case he's telling the truth when he says he didn't get any. The only scammer is the person who sold "Bitcoin Cash" claiming it was the real deal.

That is more likely the case since he didn't mention on what currency they should use in their deal.

Yup thought so, he took advantage of my newbiness. what a low life Sad

Thx for the insight. Could you advice on a way of avoiding this in the future. 2 factor authentification or the likes. Again might be talking bs here, just need to know what I can/should do in the future. As for this guy, I guess there is no way I could get even right. I am anonymous and so is he. I wish I could exact revenge on him just out of principle.

Lastly is you have a good place for me to go to understand Bitcoins better like a sort of Bitcoins for dummies it would be great (would love to understand more and also maybe a way to avoid paying fees when I buy bitcoins...) there is so much out there that I have a hard time to know what is legit and what is not.

Thx again for the quick reply!

First, you should know what coin you should use in paying someone, Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold are different. Second, always double or triple check the address you are sending your money because you can't do chargeback here, once sent, it will not go back to your wallet
