I bought a bunch gift cards from softwareseller and got my account suspended. Luckily it was iBooks (so I already downloaded them).

Your price is hard to resist but I'm concerned about getting my other account suspended and not being able to update the apps I bought normally.

I don't think Apple will suspend ALL accounts associated. But if there's too many buys from one user, I think Apple will.


145  Economy / Goods / Re: iTunes Apps, Games, Musics & More for BTC on: October 17, 2012, 12:15:39 PM
Clearly the account is bought using some stolen card or the owner will make a chargeback in the CC.

Watch out so you guys don't get your account suspended. Maybe getting one or other app won't be a problem.

I'm trying to buy an iTunes gift card without success. I just want to send bitcoins and get the redeem code. Why ask for registration, my address, email, etc?
149  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] $15 iTunes Gift Card Code on: October 03, 2012, 03:31:49 PM
I'll buy it. PM your bitcoin address.

Bought 4 itunes gift cards and after a few weeks my account was disabled.

The message I got from iTunes:
Quote
"The account was disabled because the card holder whose card purchased the iTunes Gift Certificates redeemed to your account has refuted the charges with his or her credit card company.

Please note that because your account was disabled, you will lose the ability to update applications purchased with this account."
151  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [PENDING] Scammer: Matthew N. Wright on: September 08, 2012, 04:57:30 AM
Knowing there is 80k BTC as hedge, now I'm not so sure pirate40 won't return his victim's client's money.

Pirate can return the money he took from everyone. He just need a loan to compensate for the amount he spent while running his ponzi. For sure is a fraction of the 80k BTC bet. If that's the case, his associate Matthew can split almost a million U$$ with him and not being prosecuted (or gang-raped).

Funny cuz people are going to be fooled TWICE!







I need popcorn.
152  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Have you purchased your copy of Bitcoin Magazine Issue #3 at Barnes & Noble yet? on: September 08, 2012, 12:27:01 AM
Just checked the website and it improved a lot since the last time I checked. Very neat.

Just added to my RSS client.


btw, the website doesn't have a favicon. It looks better on Reeder.
153  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Discussion about 10,000BTC Bet (Official) on: September 06, 2012, 12:20:06 PM
42.5kBTC now.

It's funny that this is getting up to be a significant percentage of the estimated Pirate debt at the time of collapse. Pirate being Matthew's backer would be quite a funny twist; if Pirate has enough BTC left and could afford to buy back enough of his debt at a really distressed rate, he could still make out handsomely on this without being as open to getting in trouble with the law.
It's a chicken-and-egg problem though... Pirate can't pay back all of his debt until Matthew receives the winning funds from winning his bet, but Matthew can't receive the winning funds from winning his bet until Pirate pays back all of his debt.  Unless one of them can happen upon a $5M loan, I doubt that it's even a reasonable plan to think about.

Obviously Pirate isn't going to pay all the absurd and unsustainable interest. He might just contact a few of his "investors" (friends who's able) to wait a few days more (after the bet) and return the bitcoins to the majority of victims investors.
Looks like Matthew being his partner backer could claim the money from the bet and pay the interest while the ponzi scheme was working and still make a profit. They're just hedging against.

What kind of software do you recommend to stop traffic when the VPN drops the connection?

Another transaction (september 4th).

Service is great. Thank you.

156  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Details of Pirate's Investment Strategy on: September 01, 2012, 06:37:23 AM
Funny to see people trying to rationalize Pirate's scheme. For him to pay 1% a day, he's supposed to be doing more than that. So...do you guys really think a +1%/day (please, read aloud) investment is sustainable?

It doesn't matter if he was laundering money or participating in something illegal (high risk/high reward) activity. There is no way he could sustain such returns in the long term.

It was clearly a Ponzi scheme. As for being a bank run, yeah, the same happened to Bernie Madoff. When people had to withdraw money from his fund, the scheme that worked for decades, fell.

Greater Fool Theory.

Quote
The greater fool theory (also called survivor investing) is the belief held by one who makes a questionable investment, with the assumption that they will be able to sell it later to "a greater fool"; in other words, buying something not because you believe that it is worth the price, but rather because you believe that you will be able to sell it to someone else at an even higher price.


When you invest in a unsustainable business, shit happens.

Another transaction with bit-joker

Just to confirm. The transaction went fine and didn't need escrow.
159  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Bitcoinary.com - The new smart way to buy and sell Bitcoins. on: August 17, 2012, 10:04:35 PM
parts of what?

Both parts (buyer/seller) of the transaction to maintain server costs. Each part pays 0.5% to Bitcoinary.
160  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Bitcoinary.com - The new smart way to buy and sell Bitcoins. on: August 16, 2012, 01:41:02 AM
Looks like a good idea.

What about charging 0.5% for each part as a fee?

And the average % a person should charge is around 5%, not 10%-20%.

You could try some kind of escrow. Wait for the receiving part to confirm he received the funds before the coins become accessible.
