PLEASE READ Post by: David Rabahy on September 30, 2013, 02:14:00 PM Surely it is a scam but if instead you are looking for a completely open, honest and rock solid one then please consider my brand new opportunity;
16V9UivwWtp6iGsaRnWycUjZJBcDDQRmV4 The first ten folks are *guaranteed* to at least get their Bitcoins back (minus any transaction fees) assuming I remain capable of doing it; much higher returns are possible. My previous two opportunities were wildly successful beyond all belief gathering 1665.3 µBTC to date -- this is the kind of track record you want a piece of. Do not delay; all subsequent investors will lose absolutely no more than 100% of their funds so hurry don't miss out on this. If nothing else consider the entertainment value of this offer and act now. It costs so little to give so much. |
