I've done some more digging.  OP I think you may want to reconsider going after suchmoon.  I have a picture of his wife and, well, she looks pretty mean actually.



I don't think I would mess with her.

Also I was able to dig up a picture of one if his friends.  Another one probably best avoided if you asked me.

He does a damn good impression.

The only people who would have a problem with suchmoon or Paul Revere would be scamming douchnozzles.  You seem to have a problem with them.  Simple logic tells me all I need to know about you.

The only thing you will get from this thread is the ridicule and derision you deserve.

I've done some digging and put out the word to some of my contacts and some information has already come back.  It looks as though Paul Revere is just an alias.  Turns out "Paul" was working as a NY city cab driver as recently as 2011.




I also have some information on suchmoon.  Apparently suchmoon is also an alias and he's actually living in Australia.  Here is a picture of his passport.




Please send my 10 BTC to 1StupidMoronStartedThisThread

Man you're right!  Looks like this Paul Revere character has been running around rabble rousing for quite a long time.  Based on what I have already learned I don't think this guy will even have a pager number.  It looks like he doesn't even drive but instead rides a horse.  Frankly I'm surprised he's even on the internet.  But one thing I have been able to narrow down is his location.  It appears he lives or lived in the Boston Mass area.  That 10 BTC is as good as mine bitches!

8.7%, not even 9.  Better than I had hoped.

Thanks for the response.

I feel like the buy pressure is pretty weak compared to the sell pressure so I pulled the trigger and ordered another.  Which of course means bitcoin should go way, way up now so you all may want to get ready if you are considering a purchase.

Did all of the batch 7's ship?  Any batch 8's ship yet?  Anyone with a batch 6 OC at all (besides the person who did a hard reset and had it default to 700)?

Certainly heading that way.

I need 3 or 4 days mining to get over the 4 BTC threshold though.  I'm close but I need a couple more blocks on a couple of pools.

If they keep these things pegged to BTC and BTC hits about $425ish I'll bite on another.  I hope it makes it in the next week or so.

He's batman!

This is what happened, user account GAWNeedsToBeStopped had posted a number of emails between Josh and this Rishab guy and then internal emails between Carlos and Josh about Rishab that showed that Josh was more or less just interested in getting as much money out of him as he could and didn't really give a shit about him.  They are still on pastebin and you can find them with a search.  Those emails had been out for a while when coinbrief wrote a story about it.  So that story had kicked up some talk on hashtalk.  So PCFan posted to hashtalk that he had proof that those first leaked emails were fake.  The proof he eventually posted was a purported email from Rishab to Josh saying that he (Rishab) did not know what the previous emails were about and that he had not purchased any primes and whatever the hell else from Josh and was just a normal customer with a few paycoins.  The email that PCFan posted was directly forwarded from Josh (the "genius" at work, keep that part in mind).  

I looked at the pastebin (since deleted) of that email from Rishab that seemed to be asking what all the FUD was about and noticed it looked like it was in a distribution list or something (I believe this is because it truly was forwarded by Josh to PCFan).  It said something towards the bottom like "you are receiving this email because you are subscribed to blah, blah, blah. To unsubscribe send an email to blah, blah, blah).  Anyway, based on that I thought I would try and subscribe so all I had to do was send an email to 'josh+subscribe@geniusesatwork.com' and low and behold I got an email back asking me to confirm to join


And then boom, I was reading Josh's emails in my browser.  At the time I thought it was basically a google group and I had subscribed to it without realizing it was actually Josh's emails.  In restrospect I would say that whoever setup the emails for GAW was asked to set it up so that a moron (Josh) could get them easily forwarded to other email addresses because he was using so many different ones.  So they were setup with this subscription option.  I soon discovered that I could use the link to the group without logging in to anything.  So, since it was entirely public I went ahead and posted the link in this thread (or the old GAW thread whichever it was).  Very soon after that, GAWNeedsToBeStopped dropped 3 or 4 more links to groups containing more of Josh's emails from other addresses.

So basically they were all setup to be public and they were all setup with subscription services so that anyone could join them by sending a simple email asking to subscribe.  The entirely public links were posted to this (or the old) thread and everyone started reading them.

Hold the phone, are you suggesting that I am a Crestington sock puppet right there?

I'm glad they got that mention of Stu and Cantor in there at the end.  That should piss off some important people (and by important I just mean rich, not necessarily important in any meaningful way).

Is this mob of torch and pitchfork wielders the same group that screamed FUD at this thread from the start?  They refused to hear the truth when Josh was around to lie directly to them and now they can't wait for a pound of flesh from his hide. 

What was sold is completely irrelevant.  It was sold for fiat using fiat transacting companies.  What's the point of fiat if you have no protections?

OK I was thinking you had reversed but for some reason I had it in my mind that paypal was 4%.  Is it less for ebay sales through paypal then a normal paypal transaction?  Or maybe they reduced it?

I thought it was 10% to ebay and 4% to paypal.  You can get ebay deals though sometimes.  I had $5 final value fee not too long ago.

Holy crap.  You know, based on the horror stories people keep telling here about ebay that seems super risky for the seller though.  I got around $300 for my 2 S3's with a PSU not too long ago so if I get hosed with a return it won't kill me.  Plus they already earned what I paid for them and then some.  But a brand new S7.  That would hurt if someone did a chargeback and kept it at any price.

You realize that with an auction style listing the customer sets the price right?
