Does anyone know this person, @bchannel?

Profile Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3696445  

I'm looking for any of his social media profiles or email contacts or any other. He even received a 0.3 BTC donation from eXch and had a good reputation for contributing to projects especially for eXch SimpleX BOT. According to him he have worked with @paid2

I've worked with paid several times and hired him on my bounty campaign

However, after confirm his identity by asking him a pm in bitcointalk he done it and later  I sent him a XMR payment for swap, he suddenly vanished (its been 6 hours almost) from SimpleX chat.

I don't want to assume he was a scammer, but it certainly looks that way.

This is a warning to all users: please be cautious, if he every reaches you

Before our deal he was looking for a escrow and told me that on simpleX

Quote
let me ask @paid2 on forum if he can escrow it for us for first time

I've dmed paid to in simplex, once receive answe from him i'll be back to you

he dmed to @paid2, does anyone have paid2 simpleX ?


proof that i was talking with him.




Update:

It’s been almost a day, and he’s gone. Well it looks like he either blocked me or deleted my contact on SimpleX. At this point, I’m convinced he was 100% a scammer.

Because he had worked with exch and even received donations from him, I trusted him. But apparently, that wasn’t enough. He turned out to be a real scammer who was just looking to take advantage of someone before disappearing.

I didn’t use escrow because I trusted him he had connections with exch, worked for a while, and seemed like a good developer with solid knowledge. Honestly, I never imagined someone like that would scam me and then vanish. It was my mistake that I went first on the deal. I believe right now he is looking this read and reading all those.

As I mentioned, he only referenced “@paid2” and then disappeared. I believe he may also have some connection with @paid2.

I always try to help bitcointalk users with swaps that don’t require KYC or AML checks, and I do my best to protect them from getting scammed by centralized exchanges or other platforms. Unfortunately, scammers are always among us, pretending to be trustworthy. Please remember: even if someone is well-connected, vouched for, or has a good reputation or rank, you should not automatically trust them. A scammer is a scammer they don’t care about anything but their own gain.

Stay cautious and always double-check before making any deals.
