It really isn't that complicated, but the peanut gallery makes it look that way setting the conversation back every time some one who is too lazy to read the thread shows up and makes an uninformed comment.

Dude, I don't think you understand the depth of the shit you are in. People are beating down my doors to get at you, and I am not the only one with your dox. We know who you are and you WILL be held responsible for this regardless of what you believe. You fucked up, bad. Take a moment to let that sink in. You need to be in damage control mode now otherwise this is going to cause you problems for the rest of your life. Swallow your pride and negotiate a deal for the debt. If you like I am willing to help negotiate the value so you get a reasonable settlement. You should be thankful this option is available, because I am about done helping you out here unless you buckle down and do something drastic to prove you are going to fix this in a reasonable time frame. If not something drastic like having your door kicked in and getting thrown in a cell is likely to happen soon after.

He may or may not be a minor. Also who said he identified himself to anyone he escrowed for? How would they know he is a minor? I haven't looked into him but I did get some new info recently from another user that leads me to believe he may in fact be a minor, but the torch holding dildos don't have to worry if I get into legal troubles for doxing a minor do they? Nor has anyone considered how this changes the situation. You all think you have it all figured out. The moment you think you know something is usually the second you are wrong.

Get away? I have his name and home address. He might even be a minor. What is he going to move to Mexico on $12,000?

No thank you. That would be a huge liability to my own account and inventory as well as a huge investment of time. I already wish I had kept my mouth shut about having his dox because everyone has clearly been so appreciative of me coming forward with the information. I know you aren't responsible for this, but you have to understand this is already more of a waste of my time and energy than I care for it to be, and in the end the handful of people who would give a shit will forget about it in a few days. Then some other dildo will accuse me of something and produces zero evidence for the inevitable dramafest that is bitcointalk and none of them will be anywhere to be found.

People spend years here trying to build up reputations that people will trust in a sea of fraud, and they can be destroyed in seconds over the most utter nonsense, and people wonder why the scammers are left to scam, and the staff don't give a shit or get involved in anything that doesn't personally interest them. This place is just an angry torch holding mob now waiting to be pointed like so many lemmings at a target. Its pathetic, and it gets worse every day. I used to love this place because it provided me freedom to interact and trade with people who were of similar mind. Now I am just counting down the days until the 4-chan atoms reach critical mass and the whole forum just implodes in an over 9000 mega-penis blast. This is how communities using much needed disruptive ideology or technology are dismantled, and you with the torches are all helping. The banksters couldn't be more pleased. Continue to cannibalize each other and ignore them FTW.

As far as his steam account, what I suggest is one of the larger victims of this scenario makes a deal with him to resolve his debt in exchange for his discounted inventory of gift games, virtual items, and anything that is tradable, etc. Since the items could easily be reclaimed by filing a fake complaint with Steam, some time would have to pass before the trade is official and permanent. I believe the window is 190 days for Steam last I checked, but I am not 100% positive. I am sure some one else here who trades virtual items on Steam knows. Then it would be up to the individual debt owners to decide what they think the discount on the virtual goods should amount to in order to make up for the hassle of personally selling them on their own time. In my opinion this would be the most efficient approach to this situation.

It doesn't change anything. Even if you had video proof of him doing it with a signed confession statement I still wouldn't change my course of action because I believe it is the best avenue at this time for possible compensation of the victims. Lets for the sake of argument assume he did it all on purpose. If that is the case he fucked up, and fucked up BAD. He is going to need some time for it to sink in how royally fucked he is before he takes reasonable actions to resolve this, not to mention actually set it up logistically. If he doesn't the results will still be the same. I am hoping some one here with two brain cells to rub together can point this out because I am done explaining.

Thanks for the motivational tip Quickseller. Way to give him more reasons not to pay so you can verbally condemn him. A+

What makes you think the money was the target? Maybe the actual target was Master-P or the forum. Maybe they were willing to risk it for the entertainment value of making you all cannibalize one of your most trusted members while they get away unnoticed. That sure sounds like hacker humor to me, but it doesn't matter. None of the crap you are spouting is of consequence to this situation.

I am not stopping anyone from "calling master-P out on his lies", I am asking uninvolved parties such as yourself to calm the fuck down and let the people actually involved try to work this out before you shit all over everything to get your compulsive fix. BTW watching some one make payments for 40 weeks sounds pretty boring, I don't how how much drama that counts for. Also the thief didn't take anything from me, I am freely volunteering my time to help the victims here, so what exactly does he have to laugh in my face about, and why should I give a fuck? I am trying to help the victims here get back what they can, and they can't do that if you jackals string him up first regardless of the validity of his claims.

P.S. I am not going to bother replying to you any more.

Your right, how could a hacker know he already changed the wallet password? There is a difference between circumstantial evidence and direct evidence. Circumstantial evidence is not always reliable, but can be a good indicator. The problem is you are treating it like it is solid proof of something. It's not. BTW, this easily could just be about the perp covering his ass by making you all think you have the real perpetrator he set up as a patsy, allowing him to walk with no one even looking for him. Once again I will repeat myself. I don't believe Master-P, and IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW FULL OF SHIT HE IS. He has been positively identified and he will be held liable for the lost funds no matter what. If the funds are actually returned is another matter. If he is harassed and prosecuted the chances of that happening go way down. So put your drama boner away for a few days and see what he does ok sherlock?  You will all get your pound of flesh. Let the actual victims try to recover some of their funds first before you bust your drama load all over the forum k?

P.S. Meltdown? Please. You give yourself too much credit.

I have been the only person giving you a fair chance here from the get go, so please take me at my word when I say you are in fact under the law 100% responsible for those funds. I am not just making shit up to scare you into paying. If BTC goes up, you are fucked and they WILL take everything you own. Any time you exchange something of value you automatically enter into a contract, regardless of paperwork being involved. Under the absolute best scenario you will spend years in court and probably pay much more just to cover your ass. A loan is 100% in your best interest. Pretty soon you will have no choice in the matter. Make the right choices while you still can.

Yeah, calling Glen in sure fixed it! I can tell Master-P is getting his affairs in order over the doxing of his public steam ID and DNS records.
By the way, what involvement do you have with this situation? Are you a victim? I have a reason for being here, what about you? This is clearly just entertainment for you.

What? What logic is there in that statement? Because the real Master-P guessed that the hacker didn't move the coins because he can't access them any longer, this some how proves he did it? Grow a brain first, then speculate. I am not taking him at his word, I am taking the most likely avenue for resolution for the victims.


Because this community has never ruined anyone's reputation with nothing more mere speculation right?

He is already identified... who gives a shit what he changes online? It won't protect him from anyone except an angry mob, and why would anyone want to take reasonable steps to prevent that I wonder? You also forgot to specify what advantage he would get from a short delay in his doxing. Additionally, the victims will have access to his information, so what exactly is the point of your 3 ring circus other than personal entertainment? This is just like a multi-million dollar ASIC scam you are right...  People around here need to stop stroking your ego so much, you are getting a big head. Maybe you can be in your own freak show as the amazing balloon headed man.

Probably because morons such as yourself forced me to in order to protect my own reputation.

I am just saying getting a loan is in your own personal best interest whether you realize it or not. That $12k could easily become $50k, then what are you going to do? Then they really will take everything you own. Don't let this relatively minor fuck up become a life mistake.

So you are agreeing to keep to a payment schedule of .5 BTC per week? Please be specific, and stick to that number. I think at this rate you would be better off getting a loan, because if BTC goes up you are royally fucked. In spite of your beliefs, you are actually 100% legally liable for these funds, and you could easily be held civilly liable for it meaning they could take everything you own, not to mention criminal liabilities. You might want to rethink a loan.

Ok smart guy. Then explain to me in detail how it is impossible for a hacker to fake this... I will wait. BTW, did you ever consider that Master-P was posting info he already anonymized? And who said I was trying to stop it? BTW way to skip over everything else and go for the one thing no one really knows for sure to argue with me about. A+. But I am the one starting drama right?

I got my eye on you now motherfucker, don't ever slip. Thinking it and saying it in public are two different things. As you probably don't know I don't take people making shit up about me very lightly.

All you idiots are such bloodthirsty drama queen basement dwellers, and you wonder why no one in this community is helpful any more. I got Master-P to start making partial payments to the victims, and my reward? Being accused by slack jawed dildos of being complicit with him because I don't just immediately toss him into the fire like the rest of you mongoloid 4chanites are chanting for without a thought in your heads other than your own personal entertainment. Next time I will just stay out of it and just let you get robbed with impunity. The internet is just one big version of The Sims to you and all you want to do is build a house with no toilet so you can laugh that the "virtual" characters that have no place to shit and die while you beat off to furry porn on the side.

You do realize that the situation Master-P claims to be in could happen to anyone right? No I don't believe him just because he said it. No I don't think any of this is an excuse even if he is telling the truth. He is 100% legally liable for this loss whether he knows it or not. I am giving him time to fix his error, intentional or otherwise. How many of you can pull $12k out of your ass in 3 days? Putting him in a cell and forcing him to pay for lawyers will not get anyone paid back. Harassing him over the internet will not get anyone paid back. Delaying his doxing provides no real advantages to him getting away with this, he is already identified. People keep mentioning these unspecified reasons he could take advantage of a delay, but some how no one can give any good reason why this would help him. What it does help however is THE VICTIMS.

Assuming he is in fact telling the truth, at least about repayment, this is the most likely way to get people repaid, but who cares about the victims when there is so much drama to be had right? Harassing some one who is paying out of their own pocket for a $12k fuck up is a good way to just get him to say fuck you idiots and take his chances with being prosecuted. Additionally if I dox him now, what am I going to do if he ceases payments? Dox him again?

And the big kicker not one of you morons thought about.... Have you ever considered that the actual perpetrator might be trying to make Master-P appear responsible for the theft in order to get all you goons focused on him so he, the actual perpetrator can get away scott free? No, of course you haven't, because popcorn. You are all a bunch of muppets and you love it. So do con artists. This community's 4chan like atmosphere is what makes it so easy for these people to con you all and get away with it.

Let me reiterate again for the lazy fucks who don't bother reading and want to pretend like they know what is going on.

-If any of the actual victims want his dox, I have already agreed to provide it to them once they show me TX info and sign a message from the address

-If he stops making payments, dissapears, or if he starts turning this into a game, I will dox him. Until then, as long he is cooperating and victims are being repaid, his doxing will not happen, at least not from me.  BTW Glen, your info is incomplete and or erroneous. Hopefully you have enough sense to give him a little time to repay before you turn this into another 3 ring circus like you always do.

I think it would be wise at this juncture to set up a payment plan. Go over your budget and decide how much you can afford to pay each week, then stick to that number. I think this would go a long way to convincing everyone of your positive intent here as well as make sure this is solved in a timely but realistic & reasonable time frame.
