BTC scammed

[SocialManager]

Scammers will always be around, don't fall for it. If you keep getting scammed left and right, the issue lies within you.

"fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me"

Not everyone is lucky to be born with the same ability to learn. Not everyone is raised with the knowledge or given the opportunity to learn to avoid scams.

The scammers are the bad guys, not the people getting scammed.

Shame on the scammer 100% of the time. Hate the scammers, not the victims.

Shame on YOU for acting like the scammers aren't the bad guys. I will definitely not want to do business with you and would advise others to avoid doing business with you if this is how your mind works.

Once it is sent, it's gone for good.

Always use escrow my friend.

There is any reliable escrow,I dont think so.

I agree scammers/scamming is bad. I just have a zero tolerance for it.

To OP, Can you elaborate on the story?

Your wallet get hacked? Exchange account? Transaction? what happened

Well i am sorry to say but the fact it your BTC is gone pal. This virtual currency is such that once its gone there is no way of a reverse or refund like any other platforms like paypal. I myself have suffered a blow when the Mt Gox fraud happened way back in feb 2014 and i lost almost 8 BTC which i had purchased at a market rate of 350$ per BTC. I still feel the pinch today pal as it would have been so much more worth today. So learn to live with it and from next time be alert and careful when you deal in BTC my friend.

Sorry to hear about loss. This is one of the downsides of using crypto as a buyer.

One you use btc, It's gone FOREVER!

Painful yet very much real. Unlike PP you can't charge a dispute or payback in case of BTC

Back in a day, when I was btc loaded, I got scammed for 4 btc. Wanted to sell for Paypal, some guy contacted me, I said ok, but with escrow with that and that guy from bitcointalk forum, he made a new profile that looked like that guy but had one character bit different, I sent him btc and voila. Well done.

4 btc ? Ouch, yeah agree, while crypto has major advantages, it's easy to get scammed.

But with PP I've had trouble before, where they froze my funds for 6 months.

@Kevinpro , sorry to hear that you lost money to scammers. But, please be careful, if you receive a message anywhere, including Telegram by someone claiming that he or she can recover that crypto that was scammed from you, then again is an attempt to scam you.

Man that really sucks, do you mind me asking how did it happen ?

 

[Dotpardox]

Every time I hold bitcoins I lose. When I lift it again, it increases

 

[Dotpardox]

This is how I lose weight $8k

 

[jasonforrest]

you don't know how to custody your Bitcoin?

 

[kalpana007]

There should be option to recover money from scammer ... in 7 days lost 500$ BTC ... fuxk scammers

There is no such option. Prefer paying in paypal to new sellers.
