I got scammed on LocalBitcoins and started looking for new p2p trading platforms in South Africa and came across Vertex Market (
https://vertex.market ) as they posted on BitcoinTalk. Here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5194938.new#newHas anyone used them before? I have already made a couple of small trades which all worked but nothing over $100 because Im a little scared putting in large amounts on a platform I just found.
The platform works great but I just want to know if anyone else has used it and if anything, bad has happened? It will probably be my go-to trading platform but need to confirm first.
Possibilities of getting scammed in local bitcoin is very very less unless you accepted a payment which is reversible like paypal.Is this way you got scammed because I don't know what actually the vertex market means.
You can report the user to localbitcoin support staff if he is still using the same account.
It must have been a PayPal transaction. Its the only potential way of me seeing a scam actually taking place.
