Title: My first deposit? Delayed? Trouble? scammed?
Post by: Razorhill555 on July 13, 2013, 04:29 pm
Hey guys, just bought my first 1,5 btc from somebody who seems to be trusty. I just gave him the btc adress where it says "Click here to deposit". He says he made the transaction 2,5 hours ago yet my acc balance is still at 0.

Please tell me that Its just delayed by a few hours and not that I got scammed.

Cheers

Try searching your deposit address on the blockchain to see if any transaction actually occurred at blockchain.info. If the transaction is shown there, then it's probably just delayed. Hope you get your coins!

Blockchain info would be your best bet. That way you can see if the coins were actually sent.

Great! As long as you see the transaction in the blockchain, just wait for it to get a decent number of confirmations before it'll show in your wallet. It sometimes can take several hours. Cheers
