> "Got scammed for 0,58 XMR on xmrbazaar by a copy of an escrow account

Well, I'm fucking stupid. Created an account on xmrbazaar today to offer to change coin money to XMR in my city for the love of the game. Somebody contacted me and asked if I'd do a trade via Paypal. He used the escrow-function and contacted me with a copy of the escrow-account (changed one letter; same picture etc.) to guide me through the process. Sent 0,58 XMR in the end. Was my first trade, so I was unsuspecting to the red flags in hindsight. I'm so fucking stupid in hindsight. Fuck me I guess. Just wanted to warn you, in case there are some other fools like me out there that like XMR despite being fucking idiots."

It exploits the way Monero handles its Tor connections (both outgoing proxies)
