This guy has been scamming a lot of user for a long time.  I really don't think he has any intention of paying back and will probably, unfortunately,  continue his obviously successful scamming.



So let's stop it...

Everyone else who got hit please file a report here: http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/

Mine is in, and I'll be following up with the Durham Police later this week. If you have or find any additional information be sure to add it to the thread.

I guess I found the answer to my own question by looking at the source code :

BITCOINCHARTS_TRADES_URL = 'http://bitcoincharts.com/t/trades.csv'

The above URL doesn't exist.

Startup with no history has gotten extremely unreliable, so I took a whack at adding a while loop to chunk up the download 1 week at a time instead of grabbing the whole dataset. Unfortunately I don't have time to test it right now, but if anyone wants to try it out, please let me know if it helps.

He hit me too, I'm still not sure why I strung together quite so many stupid mistakes, but if you have not heard it before gift-mode paypal is risky and should not be used, here is some additional info that I may be following up on:

He (or someone close to him) are currently operating under the name "Bitcoin Sales" on facebook and he is claiming he never received my money.

Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/roomywebs.hosting
Paypal Alias 1 - Darren Burns (locked account, reversed the charges): 0708714Darren@gmail.com
Paypal Alias 2 - Daniel Allan (claims it's locked and he reversed it, I suspect he has withdrawn it, or is just incompetent): dannyallan94@live.com

I'm considering next steps, although if he is willing to split the damage or make it up in volume he can still make it right, but at this point I really doubt he is interested.
113  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: 1st Bitcoin Gift card :) on: April 01, 2013, 03:34:30 PM

franky1 - This is regarding jagoo.net and their card pricing, they clearly state that extra cost is "Service fee" and card still has it's price as displayed on it...Service fee, Activation fee who cares what it is as all is the same. pcgamesupply.com is using term "Activation fee", they dont activate anything, they just send you the code they already have as there is no activation. They can call it Happy fee and it would not make a difference, it's a fee they are charging.


yes but still stipulating ON YOUR SITE that resellers may add on fee's protects you.

secondly when you want to go to walmart or 7-11 if you dont have that stipulation then they would want to sell a $100 card to customers at $100 and then buy the card wholesale from yourselves under $100.

by having terms in YOUR SITE you can protect yourself from resellers demanding a under $100 wholesale price.

although i find the reseller additional fee a flawed business model, i have tried to atleast compensate my thought process to aid your current model and get to a middle ground that atleast removes future headaches you may come across sticking with your business model.

but as i said last week buying at the mid $70's holding it as a reserve to then sell a week later would net you profit without having to have silly +10% gox prices or giving the customer less bitcoin then they expect.

i do agree though that a simple you will receive 1BTC for $100 is better then lots of % and + symbols spawled across the pre-redemption page.

the only issue i still have is that in england i can still go to my local post office visit a moneygram cashier desk hand over the money, be given a code. type that into bitinstant.com and get bitcoin at 6% of the ACTUAL money i have put in.

so a $109.99 customer payment for a product that has a $100 tag but ends up as a under $100 allotment of bitcoin, still seems excessive.

but hey.. baby steps, you'll get there

few questions for you.

How much you pay for money gram transfer? There must be some fees involved both with them and bitinstant?

While you have to go to your post office, wait in the line, maybe spend few $ on a gas, parking, probably total waste 1h of your time...some other person will just use their credit card, be done in 5min and spend the rest 55 doing something they like doing Smiley


In that case I use btcQuick and pay a maximum of 7.5%. Fees of 10% on the backend AND 8-25% on the front end are very high and you should not fool yourself into thinking otherwise. You have premium pricing on what is destined to be a commodity market (giftcards), at some point you will either have to update your business model or someone will price you out of the game.

Best of luck

btcQuick has gone public. Do you want a piece of the pie? BitFunder Link

Congratulations on a successful launch of your IPO. Given your exclusive position as the only direct CC BitCoin store, I appreciate the opportunity to help increase your liquidity pool and own a piece of the action. It also is cool to get a bit of a discount in the form of a dividend, since Platinum keeps getting further away...

Hopefully folks will be interested in helping you keep the pool full more often, I see that there are a bunch of 2nd round shares available, so buyers can still grow the pool significantly.

Keep up the great work, Ascension!

(Disclaimer: Happy customer, owns stock, has not lost any money on fees compared to waiting for a wire to clear)

scrybe took option one. $1000 @ paypal for 11 monthly payments of 109.65 USD and a last payment one month later of 1109.65 USD. First repayment ~ May 7th
TradeFortress insures this loan of  $2315.8 for $115.8

Both (scrybe and TradeFortress) got the above mentioned amounts sent via Paypal


Funds received, thanks Eisenhower34 and TradeFortress!

I liked the "end of last month" line Smiley

I received a PM asking for it to be added.

Thanks to the suggestor!

Any chance you could add that value to your text report as well? (or a monthly net number after subtracting from the current profit)

Thanks again for this info, tip on the way
117  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: March 27, 2013, 01:13:39 PM
How I see price of share floating around $56.
The price of the shares shouldn't really be impacted by BTCUSD. While there are operational costs in USD, they are pretty negligible right now. ASICMINER mines bitcoins, not USD.

RMB/Yuan, not USD

I agree it still should not matter for the most part, but it will impact ongoing expenses and capital costs at least in a minor way (and it SHOULD be in OUR favor, since the fiat is on the expense side, not the income side.)
118  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER for dummies? on: March 27, 2013, 01:10:51 PM
I'm using btct.co too https://btct.co/security/ASICMINER-PT and I find it more dummies friendly and fees are acceptable.

So what do you actually get with shares? Do you get a share of the Bitcoins they mine as a dividend? Or is it just a share in a company that's destined to die when the rest of the companies catch up with it.

If you buy the shares give a bitcoin address and recieve bitcoins as dividends then that sounds good and i'd like to buy some shares!
You obviously get a dividend, which the last week was 0,025 BTC per share, the next week it should be higher because they will start mining with the new ASIC which should give them at least 5% of total hashrate. Right now these shares are way overlooked, because BTC stock market is small and because people do not really understand what's going on.
Do your research and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

but this week it'll be lower, because of difficulty rise and new calculation of dividens (till now it was divided by 200k of shares, from now on it will be divided by 400k of shares)

AND because a small divident already happened this week, be sure to add them together or do some math to estimate the next one accurately.

FYI, all costs are paid in RMB (not USD), so that exchange rate matters a bit, but it's not like we are earning in Yuan.
119  Economy / Lending / Re: BTCJAM - Double your Fiat! Help me start something! on: March 27, 2013, 12:51:15 PM
Some questions:

1) Im not sure how your 12% and the BTCJam listing really add up. 12% per months * 12 months = 144% not to mention that 12% of 30 BTC are 3.6BTC and not 4.67032 BTC like shown on BTCJam...
Or is this some kind of partial repayment every month like:
  • 1. Month: 30           BTC borrowed + 12% = 33.6 BTC owed - 4.67032 BTC leaves 28.92968 outstanding
  • 2. Month: 28.92968  BTC borrowed + 12% = 32.4 BTC owed - 4.67032 BTC leaves 27.72968 outstanding
  • ...
2) "I have taken out over 200 BTC in loans" any proof for that? I only see 51.43 repaid at BTCJam


I agree, I wish BTCJam would show their work a bit more often, especially around these. I used their own estimate of payments resulting in an overall 2x payback.

I recommend not even calculating in bitcoins for mtgoxUSD pegged loans, just do the math in USD, and each payment will be the bitcoins that represent that payment. Over 12 months I will pay slightly more than 60BTC of CURRENT value (100% fiat interest) but the BTC payments will depend on exchange rate. In the event that BTC crashes this loan will continue to pay the same USD value, no matter then number of bitcoins involved.

Tradefortress and foggyb have given me private loans in the amounts of BTC35 (current on payments) and BTC75 (repaid in full), and I'm including the 47BTC I have outstanding but am current on as well as the repaid amount. These loans are all in 100% BTC based securities with a minimum of exchange risk, and the income from them is sufficient to cover the payments without impacting my principal.

I would recommend viewing this loan as a potential hedge, not a primary investment, but the cashflow will be nice and predictable.

EDIT: there is also a 1% loan origination fee added on the loan total.
