Title: Did anyone get any money back from pirateat40's scam?
Post by: bluefirecorp on May 24, 2014, 09:49:50 PM
Just curious, I only had ~5 BTC invested at the time, was wondering if there was any payback to those who 'invested' in the last couple of years.

As far as I know unfortunately nothing was returned cause when they arrested him he already blew it all on shit and trying to day trade.

Just as a reminder: the up to 43BTC bounty linked to in my signature still has not been claimed

Did Pirate ever end up going to jail? I know he was charged, just not sure if it is still ongoing.

I hope all scammers of that magnitude end up in jail. :)

Oh, people are still going on about pirateat40? Didn't he get arrested a while ago? I think the only Bitcoins he has are the ones he's giving in jail.  ::)

Please let's not confuse newbies anymore with the bitcoin/buttcoin stuff, they are different.

Only 5 BTC?

If only I had come across Bitcoin earlier, would have given up my job by now :D

Oh, I had over 100 BTC with pirate at one point in time -- just so happened I withdrew about 80 coins a week before he went away.

Extremely lucky mate :) Good on you.

I have lost small amounts in a couple of dodgy exchanges but nothing worth bothering about.
