Deal?
When did the scam happen? Sorry, couldn't resist Channeling GP? It couldn't be that he's so predictable, lol. I know, it's too much to ask to have an actual discussion that may lead to resolution. Usually I have him on ignore, but after four straight days of Maggiordomo notifying me that I was mentioned by him I had to peak. Really, I should know better.

Edit: I think I should have a local rule. Only my dear friend Vadi is allowed to post here. Cheers, Private message, maybe? Anyway, the reputation board is full of personal gripes between two individuals, but this is just about the worst "local rule" anybody can implement. You'll have to report each post that is made by anyone other than Vladi to enforce it. That's going to cost you a lot of time, and likely piss-off the moderators for having to scroll through all your reports. Ps: Self mod sometimes looks odd the other party can complain that I am manipulating the topic.
I agree, but then again you posted in public and implemented a local rule that's hard to enforce. Since we all have opinions we insist on sharing...

You've been spamming the same thing twice a day on the forum for how long now? You are clearly a scammer and obviously a spammer. If you want me to remove my support for scam-flag answer the simple questions below. I'll make them yes-or-no questions to make it easy on you. 1) Did you receive money from h4ns as he claims? 2) Did you promise to return the money if you were unable to get a settlement for h4ns? 3) Did you fail to get a settlement for h4ns? 4) Did you refuse to return his payment as promised? If the answer to all these questions is "yes," then you deserve the scam-flag, and my support will remain. If the answer any one of these questions is "no," then be prepared to provide proof. If you claim the answer to any one of these questions is "no" and can provide valid proof, then I will remove my support for the scam-flag. If you claim the answer to any one of these questions is "no" but can't provide proof, then my support for the scam-flag will remain, and you can proceed to shutting the fuck up. Deal?

ovextrade.com appears to be a scam. Their "about" page claims they've been around since 2014, but then contradicts it's self further down the page stating they were founded in 2016. According the the WHOIS data the domain was created on 10 OCT 2019. The Terms of Service page is plagiarized from this site: https://exmo.com/en/docs/agreementAccording to user Mosperian ovextrade.com requires a deposit of 0.015 BTC to make a withdrawal of funds that are already in your account. He was directed there by loan scammer. He will send you the money on ovextrade.com and require you to deposit .015 btc in order to withdraw from the shady looking exchange to an external wallet. Sent me 1.5 btc when I really only wanted .1 and it's locked on this site. I doubt the BTC actually exist it's probably just a displayed number. He also makes you send a long video reading off a bunch of stuff. It's very shady. I wouldn't suggest anyone do it. I was just desperate because localbitcoins put me in a bad situation.

He also makes you send a long video reading off a bunch of stuff. It's very shady. Dude, for real? You found this schmuck through this thread, you certainly must have read this first: Don't send this user your KYC either. This is could very likely be an attempt at identity fraud, the loan offer is just bait. It wouldn't be the first time something like this has been tried. Now he has a video of you, from which he can extract multiple stills and use your image for god knows what. I'm sorry you've gotten yourself in this situation, but you really don't have anyone to blame but yourself. You were told repeatedly that you will not get a loan here, certainly not from any legitimate lender. Don't take it personally, you simply do not qualify. Anyone who offers you a loan is stringing you along, hoping to scam you for whatever they can. Stop making your situation worse than it already is. https://archive.fo/bnD9x

Well, I won't brake my head too much over this, ponzi or not, it is scam. Agreed, a scam is a scam no matter how it's dressed up. Please don't take my post the wrong way, I've been known to be pedantic at times.

It seems to me that the ideal option is to ban all these users (along with the alts) and if someone wants to return to the forum, he will solve this issue in Meta. I don’t think that he/any of them will tell the truth here.
Lol. Dude, you're grasping at straws. I can see why you would think be.open is an asshole, but no one is getting banned for being an asshole. Half the forum would be fucked if that was the case. I know I qualify from time to time. In fact, here I go again: This vendetta you've got against be.open is reflecting as poorly on you as you wish it were on him.

This is not a Ponzi, I've noticed the word is often misused here on the forum. A ponzi is a long-term fraud where the first few investors are paid exorbitant returns on their investment from the money invested by subsequent investors. Often the returns are made available for withdrawal to feign legitimacy, and drum up positive reviews, to help dupe future "investors." Think of Bernie Madoff, who made off (pun intended) with billions before being caught. This is a flat out scam, no one is getting any payments at all, not the first "investors," not the second "investors," nobody. Only the scammer himself will get anything out of this fraud, and he'll probably be content to dupe one unsuspecting victim for $1500. Definition of Ponzi scheme : an investment swindle in which some early investors are paid off with money put up by later ones in order to encourage more and bigger risks

That's bizarre. A couple of weeks ago I used Electrum to initialize my KeepKey, and had no issues. I don't use it as my main hardware wallet, but right now it's set up as a backup for my Trezors. In an effort to help you out I just tried to access it using Electrum, and could not. The KeepKey chrome extension didn't have any problem accessing the wallet (which is kind of useless because that only works for p2pkh adresses.) When I tried with Electrum I got this message: No hardware device detected. To trigger a rescan, press 'Next'.
If your device is not detected on Windows, go to "Settings", "Devices", "Connected devices", and do "Remove device". Then, plug your device again. While this is less than ideal, it might help if you run Electrum as Administrator.
Debug message No exceptions encountered. As suggested, I tried running Electrum as administrator and the KeepKey connected without issue. I've been using Electrum 3.3.8 since it was released, and I haven't updated the firmware on my KeepKey since the last time I used it, but have a installed a few Windows 10 updates since then. I doubt that KeepKey would do something to intentionally prevent Electrum compatibility. I'll submit a service request with KeepKey, perhaps It's as I suspect that one of the recent OS updates broke the connection between the KeepKey and Electrum. ETA: In the mean time you can use the sudo command in terminal to start Electrum. That's the equivalent to running it as administrator in Windows.

I have anought results from the past months to guarantee the success. The only reason why I looked/looking for a partner is because I have not enought capital to bet with high amount (currently I bet with 600$, a daily price of the infos are 500, so I make "only" 80-100$ profit daily. That's super, but I can even make more. And the question for the upcoming answer, why I not wait more and collect more capital to bet is the following: currently I live from this, so what I win I use for myself to live a normal life.
Do you realize how utterly moronic you sound? You originally said that your investment generates 8% to 10% weekly (1.14% to 1.43% daily,) then you guarantee 1.25% daily, then you claim $80 to $100 of daily profit with an initial investment of $600, which is 13.3% to 16.7% daily. Which is it? Since you have $600 why aren't you happy to just invest that? Even if you're 8% weekly returns were true, you would have $843 after a month, $38k after a year, and $2.4 million within two years. You wouldn't risk your method by introducing it to others, and you'll reap the rewards all by yourself... Assuming you're telling the truth in the first place, which obviously you aren't.

I've seen this on occasion - 'scam-busters' / DT / some like these, receive "doing good" as trust. Bit unnecessary at least/easy to game at worst, @theymos give us a hi-five button instead. Respect =/= trust. Wyt?
Positive feedback isn't the same thing as trust. One might lead to the other but they are different things. I think there would be a lot less drama related to the trust system if people would contemplate and acknowledge the differences. Some members want the feedback and the trust system as a whole to be specifically for trading, but I disagree. There are many reasons to give someone positive feedback (such as helping the community in general,) even if that person never engages in a trade. A person who spends their time finding scammers is indirectly helping those of us who do trade on the forum. There are also many good reasons to include such a person in your trust network.

I'm in no mood to give an ounce of fuck to your little condescending attitude. There was no condescension in jonsi's reply, he was trying to help you by providing information. We don't hand out money to every newbie who shows up here with a sob story. No one give's a grain of fuck about your troubles with localbitcoins. If you want a loan, take the time to learn how the lenders here operate.
