Title: [SCAMMER] NothinG
Post by: irritant on January 15, 2014, 10:50:46 AM
from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=415865.0

NothinG used to run a pool for which a number of people including myself mined for several days, mining thousands of coins each which is now worth tens of thousands of dollars. After some "personal excuses problems" he promised to return the funds but since disappeared. It was thought he had disappeared from the forum but indeed he is still around. I doubt we will get back all our PPC but I think NothinG should acknowledge his theft and offer some sort of compensation.

edit: guess things got complicated, could have communicated it a bit earlier , i dont know if this is really a scam

Well I actually PM'd NothingG about his pool as I got lots of payouts back in the day off it, but yes probably couple of thousand PPC I never got out... but here is the reply from NothingG

HEY! FuzzyBear

The server company I was with lost the vps during a migration and I wasn't running any backups. I was so busy installing and un-installing the OS, that I didn't have any snapshots. I was working on it for a few days when it went down...

Just to share the information I have
