I strongly support this, even as a non-shareholder.
Let's see, how far we can go with the probably first crowd funded Bitcoin lawsuit.

You are 4 years too late. Do you collect posts for raising your account level?

This case is probably hopeless. The italian police looks to be inept. The lawyer is hard to reach and waits for the police. And these fuckers look like they are so stupid that they lost all the scammed coins long ago. Not sure if even finding them and... speaking with them would yield anything. They are trash. Their mother has money but looks like she was shocked after hearing the damage they made.

So not so much hope for the money but still it would be a pleasure to see this scum going to jail.

I feel you. It would be nice (and a historic first) to see a BTC thief/scammer brought to justice and the stolen BTC returned, but I'm afraid that may never happen. In this case or any other.

It's hard enough to collect from regular fiat based frauds... if the money is gone, it's gone. If the thief has no other way to raise funds than scamming they ain't ever going to be able to pay anything back. Add BTC's stealthy easily moved, easily hidden properties it's even harder to protect from frauds and scammers. Factor in how easy it is to steal, how naive newbies are when handling it, how "Wild West" the whole ecosystem is at this point and how greedy for ridiculous overnight profits plenty new users are... doesn't look like BTC will ever have any long term use except for scamming stealing and ripping people off.

I'm a older shareholder from Norway, and being from the other side of the world i've felt kinda helpless dealing with my investment into this.
If i was in the US i would jump in my car and confront the scammer, he seems to be living very comfortable at the moment!
I hope im not the only old shareholder that is not okay with this just slipping away?
(Especially with the value of bitcoin lately and the mt.gox claim!)
I personally owned ~170 000 shares in this disaster and still have a hard time letting this go, especially after a quick search on facebook seing posts about Ken buying New sportscars and stuff!!! (check the photos!!)

How did you find those? I searched for him on Facebook with no results please share. I don't live quite as far away. There's securities dicks after him for money too. I'm sure they'd like to know of his activities and whereabouts

I had a lot of trouble doing the signed message (cant copy-paste to or from multibit) and I would like to know if my message worked or not.

you can check first the signed message thing if it will verify before sending them to the admin/s. here are some links you can use

http://www.coinig.com/
https://tools.bitcoin.com/verify-message/

thank you very much, i must have copied the signature incorrectly because it doesnt verify. i will try again and check it with those helpful links you provided.

why doesnt multibit allow copy pasting of these sigs and addys? ill assume its a security measure, but it makes it nearly impossible to use.

anyway, thanks for the help. i dont even really use bitcointalk anymore, i just dont feel right knowing a cheat is using my good identity.

my account got hacked dec 1, I found out dec 3, i sent a signed message in PM to Theymos... I just want to know how long I should expect to wait. I had a lot of trouble doing the signed message (cant copy-paste to or from multibit) and I would like to know if my message worked or not. I'm afraid it didnt work and theymos merely junked it without saying anything to me. all i want is my stolen account back.
