how can I go about getting myself off this scammer list? The only scammers marked on that list are the ones indicated in red text with "Scammer". The others listed are either ones who look like a duck and quack like a duck, or the "green list" which are the few whose postings might have appeared to be scams at first glance but turned out to be legit. If you are "Credit score" verified on BTCJam, you probably won't be listed here. Other forms of verification from BTCJam don't carry as much weight unfortunately. |

Looks like scam activity is picking back up in this section.

Your best bet would be to approach your initial investors for the loan. Seeing as how you paid back promptly, they'd be the most likely to loan to you again.

Grats on the successful loan! You're on the green list now. Not that it gives you free reign to start taking out larger loans, but it's a step in the right direction  |

Yeah that's just me talking out my ass because I hit a string of bad luck. 1K trades is probably too small a sample to get a realistic idea of how the cookie is crumbling. Time to play some more and report back!

A "Martingale" is a failure betting fallacy, and a casino can only hope for players so stupid. It will result in a player going bust far quicker than the casino. I can believe this. I played over a thousand rolls this past week alone in the 50% bracket. I always start out with .05 BTC, and I've gone on 7x losing streaks (Lose .05 -> .10 -> .20 -> .40 -> .80 -> 1.60 -> 3.20) about a half dozen times. However, after looking at my trade history, I've NEVER gone beyond 5 straight wins, ever. 50% my ass. |

I don't understand why if you have all this money to load up peoples debit cards with, why were you in Lending just a few days ago asking for a loan?

New bets occurred..
Total agree bets: 1.25
Total disagree bets: 0.50
About 15 hours left for place your bets.
Is that just a ratio? I'm confused on how someone can enter a half of a disagree bet. |

I wish there were a way to bet on 60K+ rolls instead of 4K- rolls. You'd think they'd be about equal.
|

Sure. Why wouldn't I be? You have no problem being a piece and messing with people. (Especially new ones.)
Cry me a river. Would you rather I start creating a bunch of shell accounts and start scamming people out of their coins? |

The poster of the scam accusation would take legal liability if their claims are false. The site would host user submitted content.
All postings of scam accusations will be made by Trendon Shavers. Problem solved. |

There were a few reasons why I didn't add this one to the scammer template list, though in hindsight I probably should have. He had a few things that offset the telltale signs that kind of put me on the fence. I'll add him now though.

Thanks John. Eating buffalo wings right now, so its too hard to copy/paste and update the list. @thomison360 u said u have 2btc already. Try playing Satoshi dice in the 48-50% bracket. Start betting .01 BTC, and if you lose, just double it up. You can easily make 1btc/day doing fairly safe micro bets. I wouldnt hold out for a loan since people will see your name and turn 360 degrees and walk away  |

Is there a historical chart somewhere of all the random numbers rolled since day 1?

Both the accounts accusing Jakers of being a scammer are brand-new, so keep that in mind.

I am thinking about making my own thread entitled "These people are just wasting other user's time" so I can put people like Dank Phinneas Gage and Tomatocage along with MPO-PR etc. Since this abortion of a thread has been allowed to continue why would mine not be?

Jakers, just ignore Tomatocage for now.
You try do trade & if some one asks about, why Tomatocage put your name in list, redirect them to this thread.
If you start doing some trades then your name will be removed.
Their is no use of keep on telling Tomatocage to remove your name.
Due to a lot of friends, trustees showed their real face, which was ugly, made this forum to act with iron hands without mercy.
In all other forums you talk about money. Here you CREATING money.
Just do trade & your name will be removed from list.
Absolutely. @Jakers Get a few trades under your belt and/or post some worthwhile contributions (ie. posts with real content, not just "lol" fluff), and otherwise show that you're here to stay, and I'll gladly remove your name. BTW, this isn't even an official list. In fact, nobody seems to even pay attention to it given the amount of scams that still happen. Off Topic: There's a reason why DPony13 hasn't been added to the list. Try to pay attention and figure out what he's doing. |

It doesn't bother me it's just that he has had my name up there ever since I joined. It's like he just puts every newcomer up there that posts around a lot in the market and maybe he gets lucky once or twice. I'm pretty sure I've seen loads of names taken off there that weren't scammers, so you're percentage is pretty much null.
Anyone can make a thread and post peoples names up who post in the market section when they first join or are looking for high loans, do you think you're like some kind of special analyst that can detect when somebody is going to scam? I guarantee you if I had the time I would make a list and be 90% right, but I don't know enough about BTC or this forum to do it. The other forums I've been on for a few years I can tell when somebody is ban evading, let alone going to scam. Pretty easy to be honest, so making this list is just bringing out statistics, I wish I could challenge you to see how many scammers I could catch, but I don't know the forum or this market well enough to do so.
This is complete bullshit. I only put an extremely small fraction of a % of newbies up on the list, and ONLY those that fit a very specific profile. There are far more new members who are not on the list who go on to become regular contributing members. Additionally, this list isn't supposed to be used as a predictor of who will scam or not; it merely reflects members who exhibit telltale signs that scammers often exhibit. In fact many of the users on the list are added retro-actively after a scam has already been committed. In such cases I'll go back and review the scammers history and determine if he fits the typical scammer template. If he does, he gets added to the list. If not (as is the case with some of the more elaborate scammers such as Pirateat40 or Zouhtong), they don't get added to the list. This list is specifically for the low-brow smash & grab scammers, not the DB Coopers of the Bitcoin world. So if you want me to remove you from the list, either step up your scamming game, or stop posting like a cookie-cutter scammer. |
