Once again.. Think your thoughts out before typing them on the computer..

Your points are lost, you are lost, more than half of your posts are incoherent babble no one understands..

Please stop quoting him and simply Ignore him...

On a side note, if he lived in my country I would pay some Ukrainians or gypsies to break his legs. It's super-effective Wink

Same here... If such a scam happened in my country Pirate would walk the plank... But maybe because in US people have generally more money they can easily afford such losses. ($5M lol)

Pretend like someone gave you 1 million dollars and told you to buy bitcoins with it in less than a months time. How would you go about doing this? Would you buy them all in one big market order in hopes to spark a panic? Would you accumulate the coins slowly throughout the month? Would you use a bot? Would you set up bid walls? Would you even use mtgox? If not, who would you contact to purchase coins from without using the exchange and what price would you offer to buy them at?

Start a pozni a get free monies quickly.

I expect that if he does not pay or start to pay those of us that lost the most (and everyone else) within a few months we will get together, pool our resourses and go after him.

The longer you wait, the smaller chance you have of getting the money back.

Teamviewer to windows rig, from there SSH to debian rigs.

Wait, so that's what they automatically reply with when someone emails them a message including words 'bitcoin' or 'btc'?

Forgot about that one. Jerk had some of us actually feel bad for him and some weird situation with a 'street' insulin purchase.

I think this was his attempt to manipulate us.
Only the bitcoin community was scammed out of $20000
But more people were scammed IRL (his rommates for example). Someone mentioned shakaru andrew nollan moved and continues to scam people, I wish I lived closer to him.

Who do YOU know that's dirty...?

Add Shakaru a.k.a. Andrew Nollan to the list.
You'll find a few more here:

Any math wizzies know how many password combos there are from 5 to 10 characters if we use upper/lower case letters, numbers and symbols in just a basic Latin set?

How many characters in total?

If it's 10 chars then I think it should be x^10 where x is the number of total number of characters used.
If it's only 0-9, a-z, A-Z, then the total amount of pwd permutations would be 62^10.
I don't know which other characters you're interested in, but in standard (ie. not extended) ASCII table there's 95 printable chars (0-9, A-z, symbols)

In that case it is 95^10
But I wouldn't worry about exluding short results, it takes very little time for the short ones.

Perhaps the sincerity I read is entirely fake. I now emphatically think Matthew should seek some professional psych ~~ological~~ iatric help.

FTFY.

PM me your offer and I'll consider it.

As long as Internet / mesh networks / etc. exist.

Saw this yesterday thanks for reminding me.

Maybe this is just the beginning of the address, with the rest being revealed if $1M is / isn't collected.

Matt ruined his rep for life by making bets he will never pay because it wasn't a ponzi and if true not only was it a ponzi it was a ponzi of a ponzi!

The bet has not ended yet, so let's wait before jumping to conclusions.

Had the same thing happen to me but seem to be fine now.

It's not the first bitcoin extortion. I know at least of one more, a group of hackers in Poland is threatening hosting companies with DDoSes unless they decide to comply with their terms of paying 25 BTC monthly subscription (that was the amount in May, dunno if it changed).
