BTCE told me my funds were safe and account blocked

When I got Hacked I was online on btce. I was booted off. My phone notified me my password was reset. I contact btce and they locked down the account. they told me my funds were safe and account blocked but i need to prove the blah blah blah etc which i did but they wanted screen shot of the FROM computer of my latest deposits, which i was not able to do. I bought my coins from online and had it transferred, so they said to bet xbtce verified. My old email was locked down and on a 30 day wait for recovery with Microsoft, so i cannot access old email, so BTCE said I needed to do the verification for email. After verification no more responses and my support tickets were closed out without answer and new ones were deleted from my "my support tickets tab"

I've found someone willing to sell me what I'm looking for.

I didn't care to make a bulk order, as I don't have any use for a large amount of fake silver.
The link i provided was $17 for 5 of them, with free shipping. Seemed to be good.

Glad to see that you got what you needed.

Those are the 1oz bars.  I only need one of those, and I need a 10oz bar as well.

I have some fake ones I got. I'm suing the guy. Had it tested to make sure with a metal gun

Paypal has no right to withdraw out of the bank account after the deposit is made, especially after 10 days.
Yes, they do. I even explained why in the post you are responding to.

Quote
Anyways, I was awarded damages and collection cost. In my situation, there was no charge backs. Paypal withdrew money out of my account to hold funds and not because of charge backs.
Whether or not there was a charge back has nothing to do with anything.

Fundamentally, Paypal is a reversible payment service. They deliver funds from one person to another, so long as the sender actually wants to send those funds. If the buyer doesn't want to pay the seller or the sale violates Paypal's terms, Paypal reserves the right to disintermediate themselves, leaving the buyer and seller to resolve their dispute.

In your case, Paypal decided to disintermediate themselves. This just means they refused to handle the payment. The buyer still owes you the money and can still pay you if they want to. It's not Paypal's job to make someone pay you if they don't want to pay you. And it should be 100% clear to everyone that Paypal does not ever confirm a payment is irreversibly made.

As has been explained on this forum and many others, this makes Paypal unsuitable for selling Bitcoins to people you don't trust because the Bitcoin payment is irreversible and the Paypal payment isn't. You chose to rely on the honesty of the buyer. If the buyer is dishonest, then you're screwed, and that's not Paypal's fault. If the buyer is honest, they should have paid you once they got their money back from Paypal.


I Think you missed what I was saying. IN MY SITUATION....

1. The buyer did not do a charge back. <= buyer did not charge back nor did received funds back. Paypal held funds from me and reversed the BANK deposit that was completed quoting possible fraud.
2. I was AWARDED damages in District Court. = I sued I won

A District Judge made a decision thus your argument is invalid.
Also the rules of no e-currency and paypal was changed recently in 2013.

Just to let you know I am Suing Paypal for the same thing, but I have proof that paypal is fraud. I had a friend paypal me for $110 stating its is for bitcoins. Even though my friend DID NOT make a claim, paypal reversed the money back to him...Paypal made there own judgement. I have lost $9000 over paypal where they deducted the funds out of my bank account AFTER 10 deposited into my account saying they suspected I was a scam when I had the account with them over 7 years AND a powerseller on ebay. They reversed not only the charges they thought was a fraud but reversed the bank deposits that was credit to my account OVER 10 days old. Left my account negative cause I wrote checks and wire more money to buy more BTC to sell. According to Paypal TOS you can only sue them individually now and not a class action suit. If you like to sue them and had significant loss, you can contact a local attorney to help you. It will cost $500 or so but you will get it back.
The buyers still owe you the money, you should sue *them* not PayPal. Much as I dislike PayPal (many of you probably know my PayPal horror story) they are perfectly within their rights to disintermediate themselves from a transaction they don't wish to be a part of.

I placed a support ticket, and kept trying to withdraw, as I clicked it for the millionth time it was a success. Same address, same everything. The support desk person must have either flicked a switch and made it work or the hotwallet got some more funds.

I am withdrawing mine. Working off and on. Have to be worried at this point. It's Like a serious run on the bank feeling.

So a little over a month ago I was selling bitcoins on ebay and having a positive experience. Well that ended quickly as for reasons most of you already know about dealing with paypal and ebay. Well I have sold about 20-30 bitcoins on ebay  only till i started dealing with 5 bitcoins or more is when paypal stopped me. Pretty much saying to themselves wow this guy is making good money lets freeze it. So finally my time came and someone bought 3 bitcoins for $300 each (when bitcoins were over 200) and this women paid me and I paid her. We both left positive feedback and paypal froze the funds claiming fraud. The women had over 100 feedback and was a regular ebayer the last time she purchased something was less then a week before. I emailed her asking what was going on and if she could email paypal for me. She posted her blockchain address in paypal and I sent them screenshots of my blockchain transaction log and her leaving me positive feedback. Today paypal sent me an email saying they sent her the funds back. Well.....now what to do? I found her on facebook by matching the name and address. I'm thinking about sending all her friends and family about the scam she pulled on me with screenshoots. Does anyone have any better ideas for me?

I just notice the date I the same time frame when Paypal F me over

try firmware 0703 from CKolivas, that helped me a lot

also, if even after updating firmware there is still the very same problems it implies it is a HW problem
what are all the symptoms? does LAN work? does WIFI work? everything works except the hashing itself - i.e. cgminer?

Yeah, firmware updated.
Connected Directly to USB

I plugged it into an Ubuntu machine and got this in dmesg:


Jul  7 12:29:39 ALOHABOY2 kernel: [188990.652065] usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 7 using ehci_hcd
Jul  7 12:29:39 ALOHABOY2 kernel: [188990.784453] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0409, idProduct=005a
Jul  7 12:29:39 ALOHABOY2 kernel: [188990.784463] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0
Jul  7 12:29:39 ALOHABOY2 kernel: [188990.784909] hub 1-1:1.0: USB hub found
Jul  7 12:29:39 ALOHABOY2 kernel: [188990.785065] hub 1-1:1.0: 2 ports detected

/dev/ttyUSB* does not exist on this machine either
The new firmware removes the ttyUSB because it doesn't use it at all. Stop trying to install something that cgminer actively removes. Install my latest firmware 0703 and forget about ttyUSB. Problem solved.

Already tried that too>
I also posted here with several others who had similiar problems and also tried your firmware.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=140539.msg2705361#msg2705361

Tried ALL different firmware including firmware 0703 from CKolivas (yours)
Tried softboot/hardboot/new router/new service/new cables/new account/new internet/open firewall/check cables/direct usb (per avalon suggestion) and now offering reward for getting this thing up and going.

Email me at thejamesfund@aol.com or post message/hint. Will reward with BTC
