21 sats \ 1 reply \ @john_doe 20 Apr \ on: 🚨 Someone Tried To Scam Me On RoboSats bitcoin
I understand the frustration and don't want to justify slow response times. But I feel somewhat targeted as I would estimate it happened 2/15 trades this month that I accepted an offer and couldn't reply right after due to personal reasons.
90% of the time I reply right away though. I would suggest waiting for at least 1h before doing a collaborative cancel and considering it is a scam.
I never have used Amazon gift cards though and don't want to undermine your post, it is good to know that people may be trying to scam with it!
Totally fair and reasonable assessment.
It felt off to me and it was the second time it had happened to me.
I was literally sitting on my computer when the chime came through to let me know that my BUY order was being filled.
I instantly posted the details on my LN invoice and then entered the chat.
It was like maybe 30-40 seconds and since he was the TAKER and I was the MAKER, he had to be active to fill the order whereas me, as the MAKER, placed a buy order that sat idle for hours so it only makes sense for me to be idle when the order was filled.
To me, it seems very easy to respond to a couple texts just seconds after you deposit the sats or even just say “Yes. Please send the code”
Maybe I’m wrong but the order of events and their timing felt off.
I’ve been in bitcoin long enough and endured enough scams to know that a collab cancel felt like the right thing to do.
I’ll take more time before I collab cancel but if anyone ever asks me to send a payment after a collab cancel has been initiated, there’s a 100% chance I won’t send it.
