Just to update, two more confirmed sock-puppet shill accounts for this scam:

LMFAO! Come on sockies, you're supposed to at least change the text of the shill-posts for your ponzi 'cloud mining' scam!

Please see the thread in my sig for warning on GG's cloud mining ponzi scam.

Here's your answer about Coince OP:

Public Service Announcement -
This is just another Ponzi Scam
Do Not Invest!

Those who choose to post of their participation
support or encouragement for this scam will
be tagged with negative trust for proving
they wish to help the scammers operate this
Ponzi in return for a share of the funds stolen
from other users. Thereby proving they are not
trustworthy forum members.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

As I said, if you think you're improving on your legal situation by declaring that you will gamble with your clients' deposits, even if it is only a 'very small portion', you clearly are more deranged than I thought, QS.

If you can't edit it as a newbie click on 'report to moderator' on the first post and request they edit the title for you.

It also needs to be removed from this thread title.

Except for the fact that 99% of sites purporting to be 'cloud mining' are actually ponzi scams. Just like the one in GG's sig.

But whatever you do, don't use that ponzi scam he links to. It is showing signs of imminent collapse.

I don't think it was ever difficult to do in the first place.

The content of an iPhone can be cloned in its encrypted state which means you make as many copies as you need to cycle through all the combinations for the numeric 4 or 6 digit pin code. Every time the tenth code fails and destroys the data you go to a fresh copy of the original and continue trying the next number in line. Likely could be done in less than a day.

Is this not the case?

Yes it is not correct to claim it is provably fair if it is not. I would suggest you look into other games which are genuinely provably fair and learn how it is done and perhaps you can have a coder incorporate it into your system in time.

Until then you will have to accept that people may have strong reservations as to whether your platform is rigged or not.

I am, check my new sig. Like it, shill?

You're only pissed cos I'm right.

User: 'Cloud Mining'

Proven Shill accounts: 'GermanGiant','Vitamin King','HSBC','SolidRate','AlphaNil'

Their moderated thread: High Performance Bitcoin Mining | Starting from 0.0007 BTC/Ghs | Since 2014

Description of scam: Cloud mining service long proven to be a ponzi scheme in the absence of ANY evidence to the contrary.

This scam is actively trying to cover up criticism in this new phase of using their sock-puppet shill accounts to post multiple "Hey I got paid!" posts, suggesting they are desperate to find new victims. This indicates a greatly increased risk the ponzi is about to collapse.

Previously the OP of the moderated thread remained largely silent and did not delete critical posts for fear of triggering a scam accusation which would likely damage their operation more than the posts remaining in the thread.

The latest posts to appear were from known shill accounts 'Vitamin King' and 'HSBC' which prompted me to post my PSA warning to inform any newcomers who may be unaware of the fraudulent nature of this purported cloud mining operation.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

As the above PSA appeared at the top of a new page, relegating the latest shill posts to the bottom of the previous page, 'HSBC' deleted his "I got paid" post and reposted it after my PSA so that the new page would not contain the PSA. I followed suit, to which he simply repeated. I then edited my PSA post to one warning of the indications the scam was likely close to collapse.

Having then posted my PSA on the next page, below HSBC's "I got paid" post, it was very promptly deleted by user 'Cloud Mining'.

Also of note is the recent increase in the activity of 'GermanGiant', the likely owner of both the scam and the sock-puppets, who is more frequently posting in threads these days in order to gain greater exposure for that large signature banner he carries.


The frequency with which the shills for this scam are now posting encouragement for this 'cloud mining' scam is suggestive that the scam is extremely close to collapse. Any money you send them is likely to be stolen.

Please quote this thread if you encounter any 'cloudmining.website' shills currently active around this forum.

'GermanGiant' is maintaining his run of posting in forums which do not display his negative trust rating.

If you haven't checked it out yet, please review my suggestion here for dealing with this obvious gaming of the trust system by known scammers: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1438012.msg14548472#msg14548472

Logic fail.

He did not 'post about it' in the thread, he merely confirmed he had fixed some bugs and stated that the code was shit and shouldn't be used on a live system. That is not 'posting of your participation' in the ponzi.

I don't know, depends on whether I'm about at my desk when you do.

If you posted a link encouraging people to download it so they could run their own ponzi schemes, it would warrant tagging you. If you posted a link discussing the shonky code inside it, that is something else.

Next.

Please be advised the this scam is currently so desperate for new victims they have taken to using their sock-puppets 'Vitamin King' and HSBC to appear and post about how they are getting paid.

Riggggght, so anybody on DT who adds somebody else is required to agree with absolutely everything they say? I must have missed that rule, can you point it out for me?

I was under the impression that adding someone to your trust list was because you generally trusted their ratings to be correct. But you're saying that isn't true, that there is a hidden rule somewhere which actually declares some kind of symbiotic morality requirement?

Dooglus and I have a different opinion on 'Honest' Ponzi schemes, that is all. Seeing as not many people bother trying to fly that particular approach to running their scam, asides from QS as 'Honestbit' who as a US resident is actually prohibited by law from operating and promoting his "Hey we're a Ponzi" Ponzi, it isn't something that comes up that often. So we generally do agree on most issues concerning ponzis, just not that one.

For a minor difference of opinion about this to draw the spittle-flecked rage of ponzi-whores is absurd.

QS, why don't you and your sock-puppets take a break from the internet for an hour or two. Take a shower, clean yourself up, go for a walk in the sunshine for a little while. It'll do you the power of good.
