Mtgox is hiding itself like a rat through a new virtual office at 15F of Cerulean Tower Shibuya Tokyo Japan

This virtual office service is provided by Executive Centre LTD http://www.executivecentre.com/location/shibuya_cerulean_tower

Any one can rent a small office space or a mail drop service and phoneline from Executive Centre LTD then use this address as the company address, so Mark Karpeles and his stuff may not actually locate at there, they can work at another hidden secret location or at home, they might keep hiding to liquidate or run away

That's why we need the Private Investigator in Japan to find out where is Mark Karpeles actually hiding and announce in public to the Bitcoin Community every day, so we or the Japan Financial Unit can share this information and catch him soon as we need to

Especially when he is going to Airport,
when he is moving to another hidden secret location,
when he or his staff is going to court or Japan Financial Services Agency to file a company bankruptcy
...

Any one can hire a good one? any Investigative Reporters or Journalists are already following this case?

Don't worry we have a GPS tracker attached to the bottom of his frappacino cup.

lolz ......yessssss perfect .....so the rat can't escape.

I suspect this is a good idea. If you have a PI to contact, PM me and we can consider pooling some BTC for payment.

He lives in Meguro-ku, Tokyo and was born and raised in Chenôve, France. He could be in either or neither.
A private investigator would cost you a fortune - knowing this guy could be anywhere. If you'd like to send me on a trip around the world, my BTC address is in my signature.  ;) If not, call Dog The Bounty Hunter.

I think the issue is getting serious, someone if not able to pay a lawyer should look for local japanese authorities, police and porsecutors. That London guy who is already there could do it. If anyone has his contact....

I don't think an investigator is needed. He shouldn't be too hard to track down.


Haha, I knew he'd become associated with that.

I don't know WTF this guy is thinking. Its not like he's some anonymous SR2 owner, he's got a face, and everyone in the BTC community knows him. How many millions, or hundreds of millions of dollars is this guy keeping from their rightful owners. If something doesn't happen soon, somebody is gonna do something crazy. It's like he still thinks he's dealing with magicards...whatever the hell they are.

so instead of letting him fix shit up asap you want to derail that by having him doge your investigators?
a lot of strange advice is coming from those supposedly with funds tied up with gox

you do believe he is "fixing" the transaction malleability tech issue? beside, investigators are supposed to locate where they really are, there is no need to doge them unless they are on the way to hide / run away

I think he's biding time for whatever reason and one day, we'll just never hear from them again.

i think he or his staff will go back to their old office building to pick up things, they can be tracked from there

doge your investigators?  :D

that's why we need a Japan Private Investigator before they are missing! it will be too late and much harder to get him at that time!

So you want them just to be tracked then? I mean because ANYTHING can be done...for the right price.

Like he's really fixing things. Why dodge anyone in the first place? Why not come forward and address the community and be transparent?
 
Why not answer that simple question "do you still have everyone's Bitcoins"?

Because MTGOX is insolvent!

When something similar happened last year, they created a diversion by saying they were adding Litecoin.

Now things got bad again so the newest diversion is the "technical & security" issue.  

Karpeles is just the Bernie Made-off or Charles Ponzi of the crypto world. Once folks like you realize that, then we can all move forward on how to prosecute this fat pig and try to recover whatever is left for those thousands of MTGOX customers that got robbed.

Fix things "ASAP"  :D  When has Gox EVER done that?

Yeah, just look for the nearest doughnut shop. He's bound to be there.

And the nearest Starbucks or something.

As far as I know he's not in hiding,  he is a big (no pun intended) figure in the bitcoin world and word would spread very quickly if suddenly he just disappeared.  So thats not an issue right now and I see no need to have a PI find out his home address because it wouldn't accomplish anything.


For people who have funds tied up in Gox you have two options

1) If you think a crime has been committed,  talk to a lawyer and see what if anything could be done.

2) Wait and hope you eventually get your money back and Gox doesn't keep Goxing you

Japan has a lot of privacy laws. Be careful or you may be the one in jail.

now we have bitcoin foundation members treating us

pretty bad, but don't forget there was and might still have "important role" criminals in the bitcoin foundation, guess who will more likely go to jail?

The SomethingAwful guys claim Karpeles immigrated to France from Israel and declared as his only possession as a katana.  I didn't find the evidence of this to be particularly credible.  But, OTOH, they had recently nailed Bruce Wagner of The Bitcoin Show fame as a real estate scammer and a degenerate (likely) pedo who targets Thai boys.

Gox, Karples, the foundation, all of them are playing a sick game, either we fuck them or they fuck us...

Hey man I'm just giving you a heads up. I think even taking someones picture without their permission is illegal in Japan. 

then these photographers must have been busy

No, the question one would ask a private investigator is "does Mt. Gox have all the customer's funds it should?" That's a legitimate check on a company's financial situation. Teikoku Private Detective Agency (http://tanteisha.co.jp/) is in Shibuya, as is Mt. Gox. Useful questions are "What banks do they use" and "what are their bank balances?" Any private investigator should have the contacts to find that out quickly. This is the first step when collecting a debt.

If you can locate bank accounts with more money in them than Mt. Gox owes you, you're in a good position to start debt collection efforts.

So, Japanese detective, would that be like Mr. Moto?

Japanese! Fix your title.

they are on the run! some one has to pay for the private investigator asap, do the good thing for all of us

it is a case for ninjas

could you share with us the link of his live camera?

after or before he moved into new location? those protesters have got Shut Down by japanese police

What about ryo saeba city hunter he is pretty good from what I hear.

LOL

I was gonna say, check in Starbucks?

we need to hire one before some of us crying for their vanish, people do something!
