Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: MontyOnTheRun on February 19, 2016, 10:48:40 AM Quote from: Bitcoin Forum A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic. There are no rules of self-moderation, so this deletion cannot be appealed. Do not continue posting in this topic if the topic-starter has requested that you leave. You can create a new topic if you are unsatisfied with this one. If the topic-starter is scamming, post about it in Scam Accusations. Quote My payments have not been received yet either. I'd imagine that DualBitcoin is probably asleep, he/she was last online "Today at 01:12:14 AM"- I can't see anyone scamming us for so little - $25 in my case. Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: Avirunes on February 19, 2016, 10:53:04 AM Don't post this up here as scam accusation.You are most likely to get scammed whenever you are depositing in investor-based games sections.Give the section a look and maybe you can see the warning that was above in the section
"Warning: You are in the Gambling section. You are likely to eventually lose any money that you gamble/"invest". Additionally, moderators do not remove likely scams. You must use your own brain: caveat emptor. Do not gamble more than you can afford to lose." _______________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Only one pic to describe the situation here : http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmu3e2GZjg1qkcmado1_500.gif Exactly this seems more like a joke. ;D btw nice .gif Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: OmegaStarScream on February 19, 2016, 10:53:09 AM 1. He have a self-moderated topic , so he can remove any posts he don't like and it's always seems phishy when someone do that .
2. Almost every topic on the " Investor-based games" is a scam but as you can see on the top of that page , moderators are not responsible for anything and they don't close topic because it's a scam .

That's the reason for this scam accusation - with the thread locked hopefully people looking to invest in his scheme will see this and not invest.

Scam was pretty obvious. Edit: Not to hard to check his trust feedback first before donating bitcoins to him. Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: MontyOnTheRun on February 19, 2016, 11:15:53 AM The only trust feedback he had there was:
mexxer-2 13: -0 / +5 2016-02-18 0.00000000 Reference Running a forum-based ponzi scam I've since added my experiences to help others, which is what this forum is for, isn't it? Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: MontyOnTheRun on February 19, 2016, 11:19:37 AM A scam was quite obvious which is why I only did $25 worth of bitcoins - the guy says he'll have a website up later which would rinse a lot more people out of a lot more bitcoins - probably way more than a lot of people could afford to lose. By risking what I did, I'm now in a position to help prevent others from losing their money which is what I'm doing.
Title: Re: Dualbitcoin - SCAM Post by: kolesozw on February 19, 2016, 11:21:25 AM Haha , I knew it. People don't pity ponzi/obvious scams victims, instead they will blame and laugh at you for your innocence sending bitcoins to scams. ;D
P.S. Dualbitcoin also scammed me 0.01 BTC :-[ We deserve this: Only one pic to describe the situation here : http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmu3e2GZjg1qkcmado1_500.gif |
