Title: Scammer Alert - username 'bitcoins'.
Post by: Monkfacedman on August 07, 2013, 07:16 am
This guy is most probably cashing in and disappearing.  It's impossible to get money back as you transfer him money via bank transfer and then he (usually) transfers bit coins into your silkroad account.  If you look at his feedback you can see that he's leaving feedback on his own account, and that genuine users are reporting that they've transferred money over and he's ignoring them. I've been waiting over a week now.

Do not buy anymore from this guy.  Is there a way for silkroad to stop his account from scamming any more people?  If there a way for silkroad to refund the amount of bit coins from his account into yours?  Remember transactions are done via bank transfer so it's not your usual transaction.

Cheers guys

Absolutely agree,
had no problem first time dealing with this guy, but now - sent money on sunday... still nothing, except for he msgd me 'sorry mate will send u today'  on Monday.

probably shall contact his bank about that.........
