Hi!
I am a complete stranger to BitCoin, but I got offered a job described as 'customer service' helping a guy manage his wallet. He wants to create an e-wallet for me on localbitcoins.com, put his money in and then for me to carry out orders for him as he sends the details on. It seems super straight forward, and he says he is too busy to do it all himself.
Is this a legit job offer? Is it even legal? I have no idea how this stuff works and I have been trying to research it all. I don't want to agree to something that will get either of us in trouble.
I'd appreciate any help on the matter. Thanks.
(basically) Free money & a guy who is too busy to manage it? That's already two big red flags.
Why in hell would he want someone with absolutely no experience nor history in this field to manage his money? I'm 99% sure he's attempting to scam you one way or another.
Either he's longconning to misuse your LBC identity to launder money et al, or he wants you to deposit some of your money and will probably run with it.
Okay, great. Thanks. I will wait to hear more on the matter.
Do you know this guy in real life or is he a complete stranger? That might be the deal-breaker here as you didn't really mention it.
