Balambala is a bitcoin trader with a large amount of volume. --He also happens to be a thief.
Balambala, who has stolen over 11 bitcoins from the lending site BTCPop, communicated well, paid promptly, and was a regular borrower. Until he disappeared from the site, taking with him a huge haul of over 35,000 dollars worth of bitcoin.
Many investors were uncertain, at first. Sure there had to have been a mistake, an accident, or something to have prevented the until then good borrower from paying his debts. Many people tried to give him extra time, and the benefit of the doubt, hoping that he just needed a bit of time.
But then, Balambala ceased all forms of communication, and began deleting all attempts to communicate with him over public forums. He continued actively trading through his website buysomebitcoins.com, and through his localbitcoins account: https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/BM-2cTKNgPTRcA2p27ZpC7gGhSwPLt/
Now investors are angry. He stole from the lending site, and is clearly still trading, and operating with no intentions of paying people back.
If you trade with this user, understand that your money will be in as much danger as those of the investors he defaulted on. He has proven himself untrustworthy, and a shameless thief.
Spread the word. In communities where trust is everything, more people need to know they cannot trust this user!
