Title: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: wpalczynski on March 13, 2015, 10:26:57 PM It appears that Cryptocoins-Dice.com turned out to be just another scam, owner seems to have run away with some substantial investor funds. As of today the twitter account is down, official bitcoin talk thread is locked, website is down and the owners phone is off.
If anyone has information on who this Bobbax guy really is please post here. Title: Re: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: wpalczynski on March 13, 2015, 10:54:11 PM Bobbax connected to IRC sessions from an IP address that resolves to Paris, France.

Quote Cryptocoins-dice.com (investing, not gambling). The admin is legit, I have his phone number and I'll get his ID, we talked a lot and will physically meet (as well as a lot of other Bitcoiners to testify) on the 30th of March. Estimated APR (based on statistics for just-dice): 50% Sure, as long as multisig is not implemented in Monero, there are risks. Not that other assets like GAWminers are better.

Thus the creator of cryptocoins-dice.com likely also owns OVH.net and is impersonating it to be a apart of OVH.com. If we could find out who allowed ovh.net to be a registrar we might be able to get his true identity.

Oh no... you misunderstood what I was trying to say. There is not a shred of doubt in my mind that he is guilty and planned this in advance. Closing down thread, twitter and turning off phone cannot leave any doubt. And the fact that he launched the site with a brand new account shows premeditation.

Amigo, For a fair and unique coin it's hard to sort out who is a scammer and who is not. Magi team received many messages from people who would like to help Magi. Magi also noticed some strange actions on the different exchanges. Not everbody is happy with the grow of Magi. When in doubt about cryptocoins-dice.com we will remove it from our thread. Magi wants to precisely distinguished by unique developments in the field of mining, payment etc. As you all know Magi (XMG) use the word fair in many promotions. If you lost XMG by our mistake for not checking this website i will personel pay you back the coins you lost!! Just sent me a pm. Special thanks for Wpalczynski for inform me about this! Title: Re: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: psterryl on March 14, 2015, 02:38:34 PM Why scam though?

Say it ain't so, Bobbax! I quit playing on CCD a few weeks back, after I lost about 100 XMR gambling. I just decided that I had bad luck, and that I didn't want to lose any more precious Monero. Seeing the controversy about DOGE, combined with my built-in skepticism (especially for anything crypto-related), further cemented my decision to avoid CCD. But, I wanted to trust Bobbax. As did we all. I know, he could still surface with an explanation and return people's funds, but I have to think that this was all premeditated, with the site being down. thread being locked, etc. I sure hope that this is resolved and that people get their coins back.

This is a French mobile number. Due to Charlie Hebdo events, police doesn't record complaint after 8 PM and today I had a general meeting (unrelated to crypto).

We also agreed to meet. First the 7th, then I had to postone to the 30th at the last minute because the places I wanted to show him were closed on week-end.

Post by: saddambitcoin on March 15, 2015, 05:38:36 AM In the post I linked saddambitcoin was offering xmr for people to goto Cryptocoins-Dice.com and I said I wouldn't trust the site and now that post is deleted. WTF Mods in on this scam? WTF ??? Is it on bitcointa.lk? In that post you linked, I am offering XMR for people to go to #tippero IRC chat room, where the profits donate to the devs. Please remember at that time Monero gambling was a brand new thing, we were all very enthusiastic about any new development.

I hear ya, I was trying to figure out why the link was wrong and then the search engine was failing to find the post so after a few minutes of continual search variations I got steamed. Then a few minutes later the exact keyword search worked again and there was no way I incorrectly typed it as I have them in a drop down list.

They may (probably) have more influence and resources at their disposal than the local police. That's making the assumption that they work the like my local tax agency.

This was the exact reason I posted what I did in the link I posted above. Title: Re: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: wpalczynski on March 15, 2015, 05:30:39 PM I called him out on many things that didnt add up in his official thread. I withdrew almost everything I had there when his answers didnt add up.
It is amazing though how easily we are willing to hand over large amounts of money to strangers on the internet. In real life we wouldnt entrust a fraction of those funds to a complete stranger.

http://www.inulogic.com/ I cant really understand French, is that a DDOS equipment reseller? Title: Re: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: yogg on March 15, 2015, 06:40:03 PM I cant really understand French, is that a DDOS equipment reseller? It's a hosting company. I saw in the bobbax.net whois that this company is the registrar for that domain. Title: Re: Cryptocoins-Dice.com - Looks like another crypto rip off scam. Post by: binaryFate on March 15, 2015, 07:33:00 PM David Latapie could talk to this guy (better in real life to be sure he's the one of the facebook pictures). If he has talked to bobbax for hours on phone, it should be easy to find out from the voice/ton if it's the same person.

I swear people do not do due diligence anymore. This was the exact reason I posted what I did in the link I posted above. Well said my man. We did not have to get Inspector Jacques Clouseau or Monsieur Poiret on the case to catch this slippery frog before he pinched our communities moneroj. Simple due diligence could well have prevented these losses. After instawallet & mt gox debacles I think basic lesson clear: frenchmen not to be trusted keeping hands out of crypto cookie jars! portefeuilles d'utilisateurs is the french speak or "user wallet". Yes it looks like "I'll use this in my portfolio".. do you think this is purely circumstantial? it was hacked = il a été piraté . Yes! it looks like "I am a pirate". Coincidence? i think not!

Post by: wpalczynski on March 15, 2015, 10:06:29 PM well do not get the motives here . his casino was although young one of the best around. I think at first his plan was to scam investors balances slowly hoping they won't notice. I kept questioning him in his offical thread about discrepencies between my losses as an investor and the house loses. He probably decided that he couldn't use that scam any more and opted for the total ripoff scenario. He has the code for the casino. He will rebrand it, rework the interface a bit and pop up in a few months as another casino with a new colour scheme. Perhaps this wasnt even his first iteration of this scam. I am unfamiliar with any other casinos as I was not involved at all but you guys that have been around gambling for a while might be able to ascertain if there were any scams in the past which preceeded CCD of similar nature, similar MO.
