He just pm'd me back after I asked for my money back, he said to give him a few days to "sort out some major life events and ill make sure all are compensated as promised"

I do not know what this means.  If he is going through something big, my condolences to him and his family.  If it is just another ploy and he is leading us on, then it seems that hope is lost and I am sorry to anyone (including myself) who lost on this.

I saw it as a fun ride, I knew the potential that it would be a scam, hence why I only put in .8303, and it was pretty fun.  I am not sure what will happen in a couple of days.  If he comes back and makes things right I will be happy to continue along this roller coaster of a ride to make some profit off of gambling.  Otherwise good luck on future endevours all who lost money here.

Yes, if it's something in his life which has made him have a set back then, I offer my condolences. I have had to delay things before because of real life issues many times. I normally try to contact them and offer additional interest/items.
You don't have to offer them additional things, but I hope everything is well.

I honestly though Xboxgames was legit, he was very transparent throughout everything he has done on the forums. Hopefully everything is well with him and his family and he can complete the orders which he has in the near future.

You guys are crazy. Nobody is going to get their coins back. It's over. Time to move on and just forget about it- Nothing you can do.

I'm starting to think he has more then a couple of accounts here. Including a few that were posting here in this thread Wink

Just wondering if he is going to get that bike with all the stolen BTC and cash.
Since you're throwing around accusations in want a mod to run an IP check on me to clear my name. I want no part of that aspect

You'll see I only log in from 1, maybe 2 cities depending on where my cell towers hit

I'm not accusing anyone... but if this was a scam, i'm sure he had a couple different accounts or people to play along. That's how it usually works, right?

Anyway, he logged in a couple of times according to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=126750 . Hopefully others see this thread and know not to deal with him.




He's already got a VERY bad trust rating, plus people are looking for is personal information, email etc.
I really do feel sorry for you who invested.

What countries are you willing to ship to?

What sort of price guideline are you looking for these?
8044  Economy / Lending / Re: Loans available on: June 18, 2013, 07:32:46 PM
Have 10BTC left. I will most likely not take you seriously and will not respond if you have no solid plan to pay the coins back, or any collateral to provide.
8045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Journey from .15 btc to a motorcycle (32 btc) via sports betting OVER 1 BTC NOW! on: June 18, 2013, 07:27:21 PM
Put it down to a bad investment. It will surprise me if you get you're coins back. He has linked accounts, asked for a loan when he was a newbie. (couldn't provide collateral I'm guessing).
He has logged on since this happened and many people have contacted him.

8046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Journey from .15 btc to a motorcycle (32 btc) via sports betting OVER 1 BTC NOW! on: June 18, 2013, 03:06:08 PM
He had the perfect plan, from day one. Gain trust by making something entertaining and then taking it all. His IP has been confirmed in the scam accusations thread.(by some dude, don't know if it's really that legit DON'T TRADE WITH THIS GUY until further notice.



I'm starting to wondering if that bike was his, he was trying to sell. He kept on encouraging people to buy it.




DONT INVEST IN THIS THREAD until further notice

Post the screenshots now, otherwise we aren't going to take you seriously. If this is the case, I feel sorry for the people who 'invested' in his gambling thread.
Yeah if true he has scammed a large amount of money and hopefully will be stopped.

People have been notified on the gambling section.

This is so sad. I had high hopes for this thread, it was just starting to get really popular and interesting. Such a shame. Maybe he got enough money to buy the motorcycle and decided to split.

Oh come on! His last post in this thread was literally only 10 hours ago. People do have to work, sleep, spend time with families etc!

Can we give it a good solid 48 hours before we jump into full on burn the witch mode please?

I agree we should give him some more time, but check his profile and trust history. 2 days ago he got 5btc for a moneypak but still hasn't paid. He's also been logged in after the accusations started.

Also very heavy accusations going against him. Still awaiting proof.

Guys, just state you're opinion and back it up with some evidence and wait for the result. Instead of bitching between each other, lol.


Like I replied earlier, I still think NO.

Also noticed games have becoming more easy. Have you seen these Facebook apps that people are into? A few of my girlfriends have been into these because they are so easy. I have asked a few what is so good, and they all replied "They are addictive". I haev never took a liking to iphone/facebook apps. They have no challange what so ever. They have too bad graphics, I don't like cartoon games, you know what I'm talking about.

I want my Sega mega drive back, why did I even sell it.

You're obviously too young to have ever played Atari...  Grin

Little young for that, I have played it. My brother has it.

It's a great demand for it. But, these are also available in the marketplace. A lot of members sell these without the Bitcoin logo.

I would say you're pool you have configured it to is having problems, maybe try changing pools to see if it works, if it doesn't you know it's not that.

I find maintaining it more fun than actually letting it perform....that's just me.

I may be interested, I'm still looking around. Currently doing local repairs. Got to see if it would be cost effective for me.

All of you have given fantastic suggestions and I will be looking into some of them into more detail. I just finished (Can't remember name, I'll update) it's about a guy who ups and leaves his job & house in the UK and goes to move out Alaska and lives off the land. I'll find the name of it, it's in my mini library somewhere.
That wasn't about action, but it kept me reading and I was intrigued.

Time to think of which order to read these books in.
