Hello everyone, where I live, I don't have many options in getting Bitcoins.
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to sell Bitcoins to me, I am buying 24 BTC via PayPal USD. I understand many would be scared of scams, that is reasonable. Another way I could pay for the Bitcoins would be an Amazon Gift Card.
Thanks,

Hey man,
Just my two cents worth - keep hunting for another way but PayPal. They're pretty much in the feds pockets. They will happily report any transaction the see as 'suspicious', and it involving bitcoins is enough to come into that category. Nothing but trouble (legal trouble too - which no one wants!).
If I were you, I would hang around on some bitcoin mining forums, and see if anyone is willing to get rid of any coins. It may take a bit of persistence, but at least that way, they're not required to record your details etc :)
Good luck! (Keep safe - saving time to reach an outcome at a risk is not worth it in my my humble opinion)
