Being better is not a sign of being pioneers(original). I was only disagreeing on his choice of words. I know that MtGox is the biggest, and so far it isn't for lack of competition, I think it's more the "beaten wife" syndrome, we just got used to it

I would like to know the answers to the previous poster questions, also.

Interested in the Photoshop CS5 key

Gox is pioneering, you say?
If you call pioneering to buying something that already exists(MtGox was bought) and copying bit-pay, only integrated into their exchange, then yes, they are pioneering...

I usually listen to what you say and agree with you, but pioneering, really? 

Damn, are you Portuguese also? Here they disallow those Value Added SMS's and one has to explicitly activate them to be able to subscribe to the services exactly because of what you described.


What made me more suspicious was the fact that there is no "About Us" page in none of their 2 websites and the fact that I've never heard of them on this forum before. One would think that they would get a lot more "customers" advertising in a forum full of bitcoiners if they were really serious.

Disclaimer: I also don't have an about us page on my sites, more because I'm lazy and I don't like to write much than any other reason, but I advertise them openly here and it's very easy to get to me.

I'm looking for a logo for a website called Bitcoin Scammers.

The website can be seen at http://bitcoin-shitlist.com as to give you an idea on something that fits those colors/style. The domain will be changed to BitcoinScammers.com in the near future

Thank you!

Just one more question: Why don't you use a well known escrow service, like escrow.com?
I'm guessing it will be because of the non-conventional payment methods(Bitcoin), but just want to be sure.

And yes, I may be interested in buying. I'm not asking just to rattle the cage. I know I usually do that, but that's not the case

Like I said, 1% chance of being wrong, thus I deleted my reply.

Yes, you can be charged to receive an SMS(or several).

Not going to tell you exactly how, but I earn several tens of thousands of USD every month from those mobile phone subscriptions
The method is the same: You enter your phone number, the service sends you a confirmation code, you get charged at least $9 and will continue to be charged every month on the same ammount. Ofcourse we have the fine print saying all that. And I know some guys who just don't put the fine print as a way to get more visitors to input their phone # and verification code in there, hence my suspicion.

Sorry man, Bitcoins (and all the scams) make me (even more) paranoid (than usual)

The fact that I've never heard of that site before was what made me write my first reply. And I spend a lot of time in here Probably more than time than I should, now that i think of it

EDIT: The fact that none of their websites has a clue about WHO they are makes me even more suspicious.

I'll ask again and if I'm ignored I'll start yelling SCAM...

WHO'S THE ESCROW?

No, I won't PM you asking for an answer, I want a public answer and it's on your best interest to give it.
Or do you have something to hide?

Well, I know 99% of those services who ask you to introduce a code will charge you whatever they want because when you introduce the code you are authorizing them to do so.

I had already deleted my reply because when i looked closely at their page I couldn't see the fine print and couldn't be sure about what I was saying(and with no fine print, if they do it they will be banned from the service sooner or later). But I'm a marketer and we use a lot of mobile stuff and like I said, 99% of those that ask you to introduce the code WILL charge you a lot of money and they will do it every month. The code is the way for you to say that you authorize the charge/subscription.

If it was just to send you a bitcent they wouldn't need a confirmation code from your phone.
But try to follow me here, they have absolutely NO information about the cost of the SMS, and that's fishy as hell...
Like I said I deleted the reply because there was still 1% chance for me to be wrong

I had one but I lost it. Fucking hole in the pocket!

Ofourse Bitcoin100 isn't begging. Far from me to think something like that.
I was talking more about guys registering and start begging the same day. Those are the ones that turn out to be scammers most of times. The pattern is there if you look closely.

I also support the rule which permits trolling of begging threads. Ofcourse threads like Bitcoin100 should be excluded from that rule

You'll have my help when it happens

I can't also be bothered to hold your hand while you press the quote buttn to read the small text.

In your site you say only 25BTC were erroneously distributed, and here you say 400BTC. Which is it?
Just curious, not trying to make waves

Then you must conclude that you weren't the intended recipient of the message

I say this is just fear mongering... Doesn't matter how you twist it.

There are at least 400 pages on this forum alone about the "bitforce"...

I suspect what people think is already explained on those 400 pages

Well, your IP is not your private information. It MUST be known if you want to roam around the interwebz. That's how they designed the internet.
If you were so worried about it why didn't you use a slow anonymizing network?

But now lets use a little analogy:
If your car is stolen and used on a bank heist are you still to blame?

And dude, being offensive? You registered here yesterday and the only posts you made were to ask for someone to delete your account, so I'm not offending you, I'm stating a fact: You are indeed a moron!

Or do you go around randomly entering peoples' houses and later ask them to put you out just like you did here? FFS

If they sold them in Portugal they would need to give a 24 months warranty, wether they liked it or not.
Also, BFL said something about shipping from Germany, so I have good news. If they do that(and they said they would to avoid customs) they must follow European rules, and guess what: 2 years warranty

Thread about it in a gamers forum:
http://www.avforums.com/forums/xbox-360-hardware/475729-2-year-warranty-standard-eu-law.html

The actual law
http://ec.europa.eu/publications/booklets/move/64/index_en.htm Download the document and it's on page 7(pdf page 9)
More info http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/cons_int/safe_shop/guarantees/index_en.htm

Be aware that some countries may not follow the EU directive yet as they have 7(?) years to make it into law, so Germany could have only 1 year mandatory. At least that was the case in The Netherlands not many years ago.

Like the title says, we need a no begging policy around here.

Or are we the kind of suckers that will give the fish instead of teaching them how to handle a fishing pole?

Beg 1 time, get a warning.
Insist on begging, BAN the fucker.

If people are banned for off-topic posts, they should be banned for begging.
Also, if you notice carefully, 99% of the beggars will turn out to be scammers. <--- Reason enough for this policy

Your thoughts about this?
