Title: Bitcointalks.com
Post by: trav1324 on December 28, 2012, 09:09 pm
ok I think I've figured out how to use bitcoins and this site bitcointalks.com looks like the easiest way to do it but when I google search it I see everyone talking about how it's a scam. Usually if I see that I steer clear but I need a good site to use to buy bitcoins does anyone know of one?

Very good common sense... I always avoid vendors that randomly spam each forum here 3-4 times with 20 copy/paste text chunks each day with a different user account!

There are a number, if you go back and read posts in this forum (even just 2 pages), you will find a good number of sites that accept cash for bitcoins...  Some use moneygram, some direct bank bill pay (different services generally support different banks).

bitinstant - https://www.bitinstant.com/
Bitcopia  - http://www.bitcopia.com/
Blue Sky traders???  Don't have url...

There is even listings on the silkroad for bitcoins...

bitcointalks.com is a scam, believed to be run by the btkoin.com scammer. Also, TorWallet is a scam. DO NOT send your coins to any of those services.

Thanks I usually won't use anything that has scam reports on Google. Looks like I'll try bitinstant.com. Finally a place  I can use that isn't full of scam. I used to buy off topix and have been scammed for over $2500 on there. I'm a lot smarter now and do my research and only use SR for purchases and if I find a legit person I usually stick with them.

Dude, may I suggest a different user name and picture, since you do know PeeWee Herman is a pedophile don't you?

Assuming you don't, you do now!

Peace

Actually PeeWee Herman is not a pedophile a pedophile is someone who is attracted to children and all PeeWee did was jack off in a movie theatre that was showing porn. I wouldn't do that but I think there are plenty of people that would feel the urge to jack it while watching a porn...
