i got scammed aswell...msdn account....i really don't understand why account market is allowed here....
Although there are informal escrows and this scam for $220 didn't kill my funds or anything since people are buying and selling accounts with 98.9% chance of misuse with those accounts, I think a formal escrow should be put in place and a strict rule of no account selling.

Did the forum get rolled back? Missing posts in this thread?
Anyways, Escrow only or deal done through localbitcoins
Left negative feedback. He left me positive feedback for a trade that never happened and then deleted it after I asked him about it. I guess he thought it would make him more trustworthy or something...
Great now he either has the chance to come through or we will save someone from getting scammed for something a lot more valuable.
He won't come through instead just move onto the next account. He most likely scammed a few others they just haven't posted yet.
Not expecting it, just wanted to post right away so we can make it just more difficult.

Called this one out a long time ago. Funny to think of the arguments I got into on this thread lol.

He tried doing business with me last night, his password was changed recently, he seemed sketchy and I declined his gesture without asking anything else or saying he was a scammer. Not surprised here.
Pretty sure it was a sold / hacked account.
Alright, need to get scam warnings up ASAP and get them tagged. Reason why I didn't wait to post this thread.
Why wouldn't you insist on using another escrow that is available?
My own mistake if he doesn't come through. He may come through, wanted everything documented and time stamped quickly and posted up immediately just in case.

Scammed by Sr. Member: anonimus for $220

Scammed by Sr. Member anonimus for $220 who was suppose to give me 0.8671 in BTC. I'll remove this if he comes through. He says he is now waiting for a withdrawal request from an exchange before he sends me BTC. Before it was immediately after payment. Wanted to get this up right away just in case. PM's and confirmations below and asked him to send me a PM with all the info for proof sake.
Making total payments in 70 days makes this much more risky as the op can easily run away with the funds anytime, after 10-15 days and keep all the investments .
FYI, break even point is more important than how long the terms are.

Re: Rockfeller - 3.0% to 5.0% Daily for 70 Business Days
Established literally 1 month ago but a "rich trading history".. Ohh boy
So we have forum based BTC ponzi's. Rockfeller is part of the industry that existed long before BTC was released by Satoshi. We call it a "Legend". The story portion of a HYIP. Each HYIP has its own.
I believe certain exchangers had their funds frozen. I did some exchanges yesterday though on Localbitcoins. Seems like they were working on the servers for a few days as well prior to that. I have been able to send and receive just fine though to people.

Anything advertised as hourly HYIP players typically don't even touch with a ten foot pole.

I feel like a year ago there were ponzi threads. Don't think they'll be going anywhere. Though these "bitcoin ponzi operators" might take some cues from the HYIP industry instead of just annoying the crap out of people.
