2021  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Sherbet.com 1206$ SCAM (stolen deposit) on: March 25, 2023, 08:48:01 PM
I would like to address your post by saying yahoo62278 is well respected member of the forum. In my opinion the tone you applied towards him was inappropriate. I think his post did not warrant the response you gave him.

Anyway, yahoo62278 said nothing more and nothing less than what many forum members already believe and beyond that he advised the OP to contact the playsherbet forum representative via PM. He was not exaggerating in any capacity.

I find it simply amazing that most of the scam accusations against casinos are by newbie accounts. I'm not saying all of them a liars but i'll bet more then half are full of shit. They open an accusation knowing full well they're cheating a casino is some way, shape, or form.

With that being said, OP you should probably send a PM to the casino rep on here so they can see your post. You may not be 1 of the shady users I just mentioned, just looks funny that almost all accusations are from newbies.


I think you are exaggerating. It's not that hard to understand why. The player in question may not have had an ambition to have an account here until he encountered problems with the operator so now he's here seeking help from the community. It's that simple.

Stop assuming things until proven otherwise.

How are you JayJuanGee, it has been a long time. I hope you are well  Smiley

The post was not intended to come across as advocating for more or less government control, my apologies if it was misconstrued. As for the official story as stated in the law enforcement case against the owner of Chipmixer, maybe the law enforcement agencies or other sources will provide information which goes further to explain what was happening.

Gosh.. that sounds scary JollyGood - that you seem to be advocating for even stronger and/or more rigorous and draconian Govt measures, and surely I am not anti-government, but whenever I see these kinds of cases, I become skeptical of the government story - and maybe part of my discomfort comes from their seemingly conflicting mandates of "protecting the public" while at the same time not disclosing too much about a case that is under investigation and/or that the seemingly target person (alleged wrongdoer) is still on the loose.

Here is another screenshot from the OP which was posted a short while ago:


2024  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: March 25, 2023, 08:02:27 AM
One aspect of this whole situation (and in future it would be a huge talking-point) would be the manner in which other than the owner/operator of Chipmixer, zero blame seems to have been put on those that facilitated the money laundering operation.

For example, the hosting company where he used the servers. These servers were used for criminal activity to around $3 billion in money laundering yet no action was taken against them. The question of whether they were responsible in-part even by ignorance is one that can be asked by agencies. In the end they are a hosting company and would not be interested in what was being hosted but legally there might be obligations on them too.

If the servers were based in a country or jurisdiction where there is friction or conflict between them and the US government then the matter would most probably have more emphasis as being backed by various states with nefarious intentions. From what I read on the case, the only person of interest to the law enforcement agencies is the Chipmixer owner.

You have a point, many are newbies but many claim to have found find their way to the forum here after they could not (allegedly) find a solution with their company they made allegations against. I agree with you and others in that the OP should at least contact the Sherbet forum representative at the very least to ask him to post here.

I find it simply amazing that most of the scam accusations against casinos are by newbie accounts. I'm not saying all of them a liars but i'll bet more then half are full of shit. They open an accusation knowing full well they're cheating a casino is some way, shape, or form.

I am quoting the image links that were posted by the OP in order for the screenshots to be seen as the OP claims it forms a huge part of the evidence to support the allegation.

I look forward to the sherbet.com forum representative posting here with their views on the allegation made against them.

2028  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1xbit1.com - New 1xbit.com management - We will try to solve all the problems - on: March 23, 2023, 06:08:03 PM
How can you be believed when you say that you are the new owner of 1xbit / 1xbit1.com?

The copyright notice in the 1xbit1 website is still laughable (Copyright © 2016 - 2023 «1xBit» All rights reserved and protected by law) and if you update terms and conditions with your company name, address and contact details then you might be taken seriously.

For now, the 1xbit1.com website does noes not even display a notice to show they are under new management. What evidence can you provide to back up your claim?

Hello,

My name is Mark.

My name is Mark. We have decided with our company to acquire and manage 1xbit.com. We have also seen that the previous domain 1xbit.com has had significant problems with many people who have unfortunately been scammed. Unfortunately I cannot say anything further about this due to the private rights of the persons, but we as management will first clean up and that means that we will review every situation from the moment 1xbit.com has operated. I don't have an overview of all precise problems. To all victims: Could you send me a PM with your email address and / or User Id and the size of the amount with which you have been disadvantaged. Please also indicate what exactly happened so that it is easy for me to make an inventory of the case. If the claims are valid, I will personally ensure that all victims still receive the crypto they are entitled to.
The domain 1xbit.com is still available, but only for administration. All new players are automatically redirected to 1xbit1.com of which we are now the new management.

To all the victims: Please contact me with PM.
Mark.

I have not posted the warning in this thread for some time therefore here it is. All members (especially newbies) are advised to stay away from the 1xbit scammers otherwise they will probably end being scammed at some point in their dealings with them:

Regarding 1xbit, any person sending funds or trying to withdraw funds from any of their associated websites is in danger of having them seized under dubious grounds. There are many alternatives out there that have a non-scam history, I would advise all those reading this post to avoid using 1xbit and their associated websites.

I am fairly sure the unification fight between Fury and Usyk will go ahead one day but if does not in April 2023, I will probably start an alternative competition/lottery.

I understand what you mean but as this is the FA Cup and many smaller teams have beaten giants before. Most neutrals would probably be supporting the underdogs and for that reason I would not be surprised if both Manchester teams lost their semi-finals and Brighton played Sheffield United in the final. The more probable outcome appears to be the first ever all-Manchester FA Cup final.

@JollyGood it’ll be a boring finale if both or either of the Manchester team’s crash out, and while I understand that Brighton and Sheffield would have earned their right to play in the finals yet it would not be as exciting as a Manchester finale. Also I’m hearing news of Rashford and Haaland both being injured, but I think that they should recover in time for the semis as their injury doesn’t looks serious as of now.

2036  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: March 21, 2023, 10:10:19 AM
Because now, the authorities must be carefully analyzing every detail of these records and checking all onchain movements, as well as comparing them with addresses that they have referenced as suspicious. This will involve long hours (days/weeks) of analysis, which will certainly lead to some time without news about this process.
They probably have some sort of software where everything gets analysed after various data is inputted. Receiving outputs really should not take too long.

At this point, it's no longer worth getting desperate. I believe that for the majority of users, it will not be something to worry about, because the authorities will be focused on big criminals who already know that they use Bitcoin as a way to finance their schemes.
I would like to think those that used Chipmixer or other mixers for privacy reasons on extremely small scales such as when receiving signature campaign fees or when asking for micro loans in the forum, would most probably have nothing to worry about.

However, by far the majority of those that used Chipmixer for nefarious purposes will be concerned because if any transaction via Chipmixer can be linked directly to them they will end up facing serious criminal charges. The accusation of $3 billion laundered is very serious therefore those that used Chipmixer for money laundering and other crimes could now (if linked) be worried about being arrested, having possible criminal investigations against them and could possibly also have their personal assets seized.
2037  Economy / Reputation / Re: How wide reaching can the consequences of Chipmixer money laundering be? on: March 21, 2023, 09:10:20 AM
If he gets caught and goes to prison, he will probably receive a sentence (if found guilty) long enough to see him die in prison.

He is on the run from the US law enforcement agencies and has an international arrest on his name, maybe his best chance in the long term is to hire the best lawyers to try to make a deal which could him travelling to the US voluntarily on the basis he remains out on bail until the until/unless convicted, he may have to surrender 'x' USD$ worth of BTC and if he receives guarantees the prosecution will not seek a sentence beyond 'x' years.

It is worth a try, he probably does have a lot of funds available therefore it would be a good time for him to spend them trying to find a way out of the mess he finds himself in.

This is true, but he's wanted by the FBI. His chances of never getting caught are slim.
True, but its easy to say "just surrender and get good lawyers" when you are not the one that has possibility of going to prison for 40 years and since that guy who is allegedly behind CM 49 years old, that's bascially a life sentence.



2038  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: March 21, 2023, 07:28:24 AM
If there is a possibility that all (or almost all) transactions could potentially have their privacy reversed then it will be as you said most concerning from a user perspective. We do not know whether the Chipmixer owner retained user data while claiming anonymity but the details will be known as and when the law enforcement agencies release it.

I believe that transaction data is not of the hugest importance as this can all be seen on-chain already. What is most concerning from a user perspective is what resides in the database for sessions, which I assume would include the deposit information, the chips or vouchers relating to that session, timestamps and the usage information. All of which would reverse all privacy that the user assumed they were gaining when they used the service.
2039  Economy / Reputation / Re: How wide reaching can the consequences of Chipmixer money laundering be? on: March 21, 2023, 07:15:23 AM
What do you think could be the chances that the Chipmixer owner collected user data such as mixing chip information, date/time, IP addresses and URL referrals of all or many transactions that took place on his website regardless of what he might have claimed he was or was not doing? After all, just because someone claims something does not mean they are true to their word.

Chipmixer allegedly laundered approximately $3 billion but if the owner of Chipmixer is privy to certain information that could get criminals arrested (or if he has a vast amount of crypto from those mixes that he is willing to hand over) then it makes this case even more interesting.

They seized the site data, so they could find such info themselves. He himself probably doesn't have anything useful to offer because criminals would deal with the site, not him directly.

These are the semi-final fixtures to be played on Saturday 22nd April:

Brighton and Hove Albion vs Manchester United
Manchester City vs Sheffield United


The $25 in Bitcoin prize will be paid out to the winner of the competition before the FA Cup final takes place as this competition is about trying to accurate guess the correct statistics of the semi-finals.

Hopefully the OP will be updated within a couple of hours with full information about how to enter.
