My Friend Was Just Scammed With Fake Bitcoin by Sinzumarv: 12:15pm On Sep 30, 2020
My friend was just scammed now. This morning my friends decided to buy bitcoin worth $3,000. We contacted a guy we normally buy from and discussed everything. My friend sent his wallet to him since everything else was settled already. The guy credited the wallet with the exact amount of bitcoin. We checked the wallet and the bitcoin was actually there, everything was confirmed and we sent him the money. About 15 minutes later, we checked the wallet again and couldn't find the bitcoin anymore. I'm still in shock right now because i can't understand what happened. My friend and I are still confused till now. We tried asking questions about it and someone said it's flashing. I don't know what to do now. Please if you know anyone who knows about this bitcoin flashing please I really need your help quickly. This sh*t is beyond me and i need someone to help me understand this properly. Please everyone someone should help me in God's name�� I really need to talk yo someone who knows about bitcoin flashing. Link me up with anyone please��

There is nothing like bitcoin flashing. Bitcoin is not reversible when it is sent. Once it goes through the major network confirmation , it can't be reversed, except it didn't go through the network confirmation and reversed.

In this case, contact the guy, if he refuses, to do something, contact ur bank and let them flag his account using police report

Bro, we normally buy from him before because he's also a vendor. But now he suddenly blocked all our contacts the moment he noticed that we've found out. We can't reach him anywhere because he blocks any new number that calls or text him both on WhatsApp. So clearly, he knows what he has done and he did it intentionally.

But how could you transfer $3,000 to someone you have never met physically before?

Bro, we've been doing business with this dude for sometime now and the funny thing is that we've even traded more than $3,000 before. I just can't imagine how this happened this time

It appears to me you are more interested to know more about flashing than how to recover your money from the fraudster

Since he is not willing to paste his numbers and contacts for others to know about... I think the whole story is a fake!

The seller flashed you the coin . They have done it for one of my partners before.


You still have the details of the account you people paid into, report to you bank and let them hold the receivers account responsible
Re: My Friend Was Just Scammed With Fake Bitcoin by stagger: 10:11pm On Sep 30, 2020
This is a a fake story.

You say your friend was scammed. You are not interested in finding the scammer or recovering your money. You are more interested in finding out what "Bitcoin flashing" is.

Your heart is not pure. I think you are trying to find out ways to hack people's wallets and steal their coins.

If it moves like a duck and quacks like a duck, look well....it is a duck!

If someone scammed you of a whopping 3k dolls, the natural human instinct is to be all about tracing the scammer and recovering your money. But the op doesn't seem interested in that. Neither does he respond to those who want to identify and expose the scammer. Op appears only interested in the concept of BTC flash. The story is not adding up again. He said the scammer hurt him so much but he doesn't want him identified let alone exposed. The story get k-leg small.
