You send the money, the scammer pockets and laughs
- ceejayoz 13y agoYes, but how does anyone with the ability to navigate the fairly pain-in-the-ass process of getting Bitcoins fall for something so transparently stupid?
- theboywho 13y agoI think you don't need to be a rocket scientist to use coinbase.com, for example.
- owenmarshall 13y agoI'd say it's just as transparently stupid to give your Bitcoins to someone else. And yet tons of people use web wallets, which are often hacked (or "hacked"). Dealing with the pain of getting bitcoins doesn't make you smart, and it certainly doesn't make you invulnerable to greed.

- astrodust 13y agoGreed. Why do people send their banking credentials to some random guy in Nigeria? Same reason.
- ceejayoz 13y agoThe folks sending banking credentials to Nigeria tend to not be computer savvy. The same is not true for Bitcoin.
