Ironically if you had sent it through the post on a USB key you'd be in the clear.

Kinda takes the point out of bitcoin though doesn't it?

Shipping the USB key isn't 100% fraud-proof.

If you think the point of Bitcoin/Litecoin is being able to transact with it quickly and easily over eBay, you might want to look into the other things you can do with these new currencies.

That's my point. The useful features of Bitcoin are completely lost in this situation. I was noting the irony of it all.

No, no he wouldn't. This is Paypal we're talking about.
