GLBSE Payment Claims (Announce your payment here)

[Namworld]

So, for anyone reading this who has gotten a double payment, the return address is 1BgPRMk4uaJrohM1T9Cn4Hd9pHaEL6FH5j

It would be better to return the coins without me having to chase you for them.

http://blog.glbse.com/shutdown-update

For those waiting for balance payments of more than 1-20 BTC being confirmed:

I received over 341 BTC in 3 payments for my 3 subaccounts

These are all rounded up to the .1 BTC from what I tracked. In the case of the 327.80 BTC, I was actually expecting 313.38 BTC. There was 14 BTC extra. Some sales/dividends probably have occurred between my last tracking and GLBSE closed.

Here's a table of claims. Note that all rounding, extra/less than expected claims are based on memory and orders might have been filled before GLBSE closed. Some people seem to have been paid 90% twice.

I dont understand how you got dividends considering the site has been inaccessible. Seems like yet more incompetence than anything else.

[Namworld]

Some sales/dividends probably have occurred between my last tracking and GLBSE closed.

I dont understand how you got dividends considering the site has been inaccessible. Seems like yet more incompetence than anything else.

Sales/dividends between the last time I checked my balance and the time it went offline.

[Naelr]

I just received 0.8 BTC I guess they rounded up because I only had 0.77 in my account at the time they shut down.

[Namworld]

I just received 0.8 BTC I guess they rounded up because I only had 0.77 in my account at the time they shut down.

Yeah they seem to be rounded up to the next 0.1 BTC for everyone that claimed payments so far around the forum/#bitcoin-otc. Guess that makes a few free bitcents for each GLBSE user.

[augustocroppo]

Please, post the transactions IDs to proof the claims. That is the only way to verify and legitimate payment claims.

[Namworld]

Edited the main post.

[pieppiep]

What does that prove?
If I want to claim I've received some funds I can just lookup any transaction in the blockchain and post it here.

[augustocroppo]

What does that prove?

If I want to claim I've received some funds I can just lookup any transaction in the blockchain and post it here.

The transaction is going to be compared with others transactions to verify if it is legitimate or not. Moreover, it quite unlikely to users to produce claims of Bitcoins which they never received. The falsified claim does not entitle the user to receive any additional Bitcoins. There is no incentive to pretend that you received few Bitcoins from GLBSE.

[stochastic]

My bitcoins is in the returned chain.  Also received the email:

Your GLBSE account has been processed for bitcoin. The next step will be to send you information about your assets, and to provide this information to issuers (if you agreed) allowing you to continue your relationship with your issuers.

[Kingfihserb90]

I got this email 30 mins ago:

"Your GLBSE account has been partially processed. 90% of your funds have been returned to you with this payment. Once we recieve the remaining funds from our treasurer and secretary the final payment will be made and you will be informed. We will also inform you when we process your assets, allowing you to continue your relationship with your issuer."

I had a little over 30 BTC in my account but had a few buy and sell orders placed. I recieved a little under 30 BTC and with no rounding up or down. Possibly some of my buy orders went through reducing my balance before the site closed.

You should check the GLBSE trade history.  If you are able to remember what your bids and asks were at you might be able to confirm the account you should receive back.

thanks, I will look through this and see what went through in the last day of trading.
Shouldnt be too hard, there was only a few assest that i was intersted in.

Anyone able to post the time they got the payment on the way email compared to when it showed up in the block chain?
Mine has been over an hour and nothing yet, so I am looking for other data points.

Funny thing is, I had 2 GLBSE accounts.... the account where I actually had some BTC I got refunded d011471253c62b762bcf3e70a3ff12d249804ccaf202173cdb65c9c7edfe8c70 but did not receive an email yet, the account where I had no BTC I received this email on.

At least things are moving ahead

I received the BTC Date: 13/10/2012 23:50 but no email yet

I just hope I did not screw up my email address.... 

[SebastianJu]

I got a payment of 0.6BTC. The thing is i had an offer open to buy 6 asicminer shares for 0.1btc each. And i had btc of 0.6xxxxxxxbtc. So i think they rounded... but to my loss. Its very unlikely that only one asicminershare for 0.1 btc has been sold to me.

So you guys with rounded up btc be happy... im not about this rounding. Its not much that i lost of course but its a principal. I didnt say yes to let them take something from me.

I wondered if they use an excelsheet and dont get the idea that the 1 afterdot digit is rounded and that there are more than one.

It seems he is only blackmailing you bitcoin.me as you are the only one willing take responsibility for being a partner of BitcoinGlobal.  Although I am sure others are working behind the scenes to try to get everything taken care of, there has been no other person, not even Nefario, that will publicly accept responsibility.

I would wait until the asset issuers get a list of record before doing anything.  That is where the bulk of the value GLBSE holds.

Well hopefully they keep working this through and get a list of asset holders sent out. GLBSE removed AML requirements so anyone can login and give their BTC address. Will be much safer than claim codes and holders will be able to sign with their BTC address when making requests (buy/selling back assets, getting them traded on another platform or anything else)

What would be the reason to pay in a chain rather than all at once?  To keep an eye on the payments just in case of a mistake?  When I follow the payment addresses through blockchain.info, it seems like each new payment is being sent from a new IP.

[Namworld]

Not sure. What payment address did you provide? Maybe your client is not yet synced with the newest blocks and as such doesn't show the transactions.

I hadn't run my own client for a while when GLBSE closed out and had to sync up. I hadn't realized my firewall was blocking Bitcoin-QT and I didn't notice the client wasn't syncing. When I realized it, I changed the firewall setting and sure enough, I had already been paid.

The address you gave might also have been wrong. Plenty of other reasons you might not see the payment. You might still have been paid.

I am running the 0.7.0 version of QT bitcoin client and have the most recent block as of 8 minutes ago.
I submitted  1Q6eEfU6KGAA2WncmyWYjJCXq7HXGunsis as my address which if you see here http://blockchain.info/address/1Q6eEfU6KGAA2WncmyWYjJCXq7HXGunsis
works perfectly fine. I disabled all firewalls and restarted the btc client and still nothing.
If the problem was with my client the payment would show up in the blockchain but it hasn't yet.

So do you have any other ideas of what I should try?

Well, I'm puzzled. I heard many received the email hours after receiving their payments. Maybe it wasn't meant to be sent until everyone was paid out, but it accidentally got sent? I wouldn't be surprised by that either.

So how does this work if you had shares?

I think, like bitcoin.me said in some post, that those shares like the remaining 10% payments are being held hostage so that the treasurer of BitcoinGlobal pays Nefario for his job as CEO.  He deserves it, right?

I did not receive an email. But I received some coin. Was it all I had on deposit? I am unsure - I've not checked in a couple weeks to see what dividends have been rolling in. But it may plausibly be the amount I had on deposit at the end.

So here's another bitch I've not yet seen addressed - 'Why has GLBSE disabled our ability to pull a .csv of our entire account history'? I see this as a purely gratuitous irritant.

[guruvan]

Still nothing

while I didn't have more than a few cents in there, I would certainly like to hear from GLBSE about assets they still hold of mine.

Your GLBSE account has been processed for bitcoin. The next step will be to send you information about your assets, and to provide this information to issuers (if you agreed) allowing you to continue your relationship with your issuers.

The sender address shows, it received more than 2500 BTC.
going back in the senders address shows, I don't know how to say properly, the BTC increases & it sends some BTC to another address & then sends remaining BTC's to another address & its happening continuously for every account.

I went back up to http://blockexplorer.com/address/1N2MbMgGBUBYKXtff457U3DKXvmXo1wcj6

[SebastianJu]

So nef is sending 90% now until he gots the missing payment? But theymos claims he has send it to the paper wallet. So why isnt that paper wallet used to give back the remaining money?

[Lethos]

I've not got an email.
Don't think I've got a payment either, it was only a small amount (few Btc), I rarely kept much BTC on GLBSE there doing nothing.
Not sure what address to expect it from either though.
I was on the process of selling shares, but still have about 80-100Btc worth of shares waiting to claim back and eventually sell.

[2GOOD]

I recieved part of the coins several hours after the "90%" email. In the account I had 2.3346.. the transaction is for 2.1011 or 90% of the original amount.

[2weiX]

i got this:

Your GLBSE account has been partially processed. 90% of your funds have been returned to you with this payment. Once we recieve the remaining funds from our treasurer and secretary the final payment will be made and you will be informed. We will also inform you when we process your assets, allowing you to continue your relationship with your issuer.

and received no funds which means

a) they'se gone
b) my open orders for ASICMINER were filled before the fiasco and I now own ~20+BTC worth of shares (at the time, that's ~200+)

How could you prove their claims? Do you have access to the real numbers of btc they had in the database?

Anyway... her is the transaction id: 38a82210856e8afe0c274bd6df72d218b584a6fbc6b44b05346023bafccfa090

I had some numbers behind the 6 so i think he took it as a fee without asking or rounded it. Unfortunately some got their amounts round up, some down. So i lost.

I didnt get an email at all.

It looks like the rest of the payments has started.

However instead of be paid the missing 10%, I was paid once again the 90% of my coins (31.05 BTC):
The first payout (proper): c1c3372e1bedd22afd5c55c381840ea2ef697fc44528a50da10291e04907d75b

Maybe there is some charity giving the coins away to people, but I bet it's simple human error in Nefario's scripts.
Let's hope the error is single.

I'll return the excess to Nefario, to let him to be able to refund others completely.
I have to ask him by PM for proper address for the return. It may take a while before he answers.

I followed the chain a little and saw several duplicate payments too. (I suggest Nef stop payments and double-check, before half of the people get double-up and the rest get nothing...)

Edit: Looks like all the payments made today were dupes of payments made on Tuesday  (an additional example: http://blockchain.info/address/12NcPjtX6wjYLfmsTYvuTdXYwZ91tE1GFw) - Nef could actually have accidentally spent 975 BTC of user funds!

If its about smoking bitcoin, then so far atleast ~100 people said, they got bitcoins.
That means Nefrio didn't smoke bitcoins.

Seems many who told received coins, didn't gave tx id or address.
maybe don't want to show publicly.

Not quite the same script.
The main point of start is here: http://blockchain.info/address/13H7si7r2VsoaDcESxZnweH18H939ndgZL
There begins a chain of 5000 BTC and 3762 BTC.
The latter ends at: http://blockchain.info/address/12rebn6xb2VJt5YfMokUJvV4msdr7KohfG with amount of 1,058.54 BTC
It was used today to the 1000 BTC chain with duplicates of part of the payments from 3762 BTC chain, but in different order.

Sometimes the same address was used for supposedly different accounts,
for instance: http://blockchain.info/address/19mvuvS2VgCWDtfGpsLnJAPhBp2ZcWM3xQ
(two of its payments, 139+ and 421+ BTC, are not duplicated, but one, 55+ BTC, is).

BTW: Bitcoin was meant to be anonymous.

Okay, there was a screw up and a script seems to have been run twice. And yes, Nefario hasn't been communicative at all, at least not by mail/PM (and I'd be ready to bet he has thousands of emails by now each demanding their money.) And honestly, as soon as GLBSE was closed, I didn't expect much in term of communication with the ensuing flood. At least he's processing payments.

As for shares, I doubt the info will start getting sent before everyone has been paid. Why? You provided a payment address. If issuers knew your address, you wouldn't be able to distinguish between GLBSE's payment and issuer's payments. Which doesn't mean it's not going to be released soon. Hopefully everything will be processed within a few weeks.

As someone else brought up if Nefario had simply stopped deposits and disallowed trading it would have achieved the same result without the issue of double payments. I hope Nefario has some spare btc because I aint covering his screwup.

[repentance]

I really hate that nefario isnt communicating at all. I dont know what he thinks doing this. Its plain stupid to let the rumors spread while he could explain everything simply.

But he is communicating.  He wants the people who got paid double to return the overpayment.  

A lot of people would be better off keeping the overpayment than being able to claim their now worthless shares/bonds from asset issuers so I wish him good luck with trying to get people to honour his request.

Nefario appears to have been taking customer relations lessons from Patrick Strateman.

Does anyone who refuses to pay back the overpayment get the scammer tag?

Nefario, you should start a thread with a list of those that refuse to help.

No they don't, there was a similar issue a while back. They might get on this list though. bitcoin-shitlist.com

So would we be right in assuming that no-one's going to authorise any salary payments to Nefario until this mess has been cleaned up and that the business will use its own remaining funds to top-up any shortfall if Nefario is unable to recover all the over-payments?

Just read it.

Should I return the full double payment, or take my 10% out of it?

Wouldn't it be better, to mail everyone who has gotten a double payment with a different address, so you can keep track of returned funds and who will get the 10% remaining?

Or will everyone get them no matter if he returns them and you just hope all people are honest (which the aren't).

I will return the funds, but I don't want to make you clusterfuck even worse (all returns in one address, some minus 10%, some full), so please send out a mail to all accounts with details.

Thank you.

Of course not, Nefario can say he sent x bitcoins to user Y and user Y can say they never received X bitcoins.  Who is everyone going to believe?

I hope this is enough to get BitcoinGlobal to fire Nefario from the CEO position.

Lol. Without the threat (hypothetically, I didn't actually get paid, certainly not twice) I'd return them, but if he's going to be 'chasing' people I would use his coins to cover defense costs (running shoes?) since you are about as likely to get 'chased' if you pay or not, he doesn't know who sends coins to that address.

In addition, you can't be sure that all double paid users read this thread, but you have the mail address of every user.

And again, I'm not sure if I should return all, or if that was supposed to be the 10% payout and I should only return 8/9 of it.

Also, I'm think that probably not all users will return the double payment and on how this whole closing process is working out, I really fear that it will end in something like:

"As double payments have not been returned, I will now keep the Stock information of those accounts until the funds have been returned."

This resulting in me to have to deal with proofing that I have returned the funds, even if I have currently no way to contact you but through this forum, which you seem to rarely check.

So please clarify and provide an easy Way to keep track of who returned the funds. (Like single Address for each account)

Each account has it's own GLBSE deposit address by the way. Why not use this one?

[Daily Anarchist]

[dishwara]

Its not that hard to find who has returned & who hasn't.

He has receivers or members bitcoin address.
Just have to compare it with their GLBSE account, if he sent 90% or 180%.
If its 180%, then i assume he will force them to repay by not returning the assets they have in their GLBSE account.

His only reply after ~20+ days, shows some what aggressive & commanding, instead of requesting or asking or begging.

Since he so far didn't repay any asset issuers their bitcoin, & his commanding reply, shows he has some plans.
Maybe he will just transfer all shares & bonds to LEGAL exchange (Bitcoinglobal).
Coz already, most of the asset issuers identity is known, they cant runaway from government to hide their money, if they do anything illegal in respect to assets they issued.

So for asset issuers, the choice will be transfer all the assets in to new LEGAL exchange & continue business or default assets or get back assets.
Asset issuers cant default, coz it will affect their reputation & future.
Also, getting back assets, will affect their reputation & future business & they loose bitcoins (thats why, he didn't repay them).

So, no good/other way, but go in Nefario's way.

[memvola]

Isn't it necessary to fill out some complicated, intrusive forms and submit copies of your ID to someone you barely know in some other country before waiting a few weeks to receive a refund? I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

No, that was forum members making things up as they went along.

I don't know what you meant by this. Only after the forum outrage and legal threats, those intrusive requirements were removed. You had to submit a mugshot of yourself holding a piece of paper, along with your ID and proof of residence before that.

Its not that hard to find who has returned & who hasn't.

It only takes a couple of people to send odd amounts to make matching impossible. One could always claim they sent my 90% in pieces.

He has time & our money. Until, he convinced that they returned, he can hold assets & their dividends.
Or just take the bitcoins from dividends.

+1, should I return all or just everything above 100%? Double payment was sent to my offline wallet and it will take me some time to return them. At least a mail should be sent, not everyone is reading forums. This is a major fuck-up. Geez.
BTW, before sending coins, Nefario should have sent account information to everyone (number of bitcoins in account + number of shares holding of each asset + csv of account transactions).

[memvola]

I don't think he has evil plans.

Bitcoin itself is evil plan to governments, but it's good plan to anti governments.

Maybe he had, now he hasn't.

I'm convinced that what he's doing is not only a result of him trying to avoid prosecution, but also trying to keep the platform in his control. He is working for his own "positive" gain at the cost of the immense losses we are suffering.

Think of it this way. We could have easily managed to continue business without GLBSE, but he has intentionally and actively prevented us from being able to do so. He has planned this sabotage of all businesses on the exchange, and probably will use the information he's holding hostage to coerce the asset issuers to submit to his plan, whatever it is.

This is the most extreme betrayal of trust we have witnessed so far, it's almost a statement against the people with anti-government sentiment forcing us to "face the reality", that we cannot do business that depends on mutual trust without the helping hand of the State.

You have the right to 100%, so I guess the excess should be returned.

Nefario could have easily sent a digitally signed account info to everyone on day one, which would result in us continuing to move on with our lives with minimal impact. So I don't expect him to do it now or ever. He can't not resolve the issue either. He will most likely use the leverage he has to force issuers into cooperating with his further demands.

[SebastianJu]

A lot of people would be better off keeping the overpayment than being able to claim their now worthless shares/bonds from asset issuers so I wish him good luck with trying to get people to honour his request.

I thought so too. I mean who could blame the guys that got double payment and have shares at glbse when they kept the double payment until they get their shares detail? They didnt get the shares so they could keep the btc hostage. At least nefario cant blame them... he gave the example for such behaviour.
The wonderful thing is, like Namworld is saying... nef wont give out the share details until all btc are paid back. I hope i didnt give this argument when writing this as a guess. Because of course there are ways to do both.
They could tell the issuer to not pay until all glbsemoney is sent. Or when they send an email anyway and are doing all with a script they could send an email to the receiver and tell them how much they sent. So i dont think i will let it count when they dont want to start sending out sharedetails because of the reason the receiver doesnt know then who the sender is.

So would we be right in assuming that no-one's going to authorise any salary payments to Nefario until this mess has been cleaned up and that the business will use its own remaining funds to top-up any shortfall if Nefario is unable to recover all the over-payments?

Nefario will now get paid when hell freezes over 

I dont think the amount bitcoinglobal has will cover Nefario's latest fuckup, even without paying him. Of course he will still demand it.....

So when that is how the glbse-shareholders think and nefario has the right at the money then he will fight this out on the glbse-users back right?
I think even ceos in free economic get their salary when they run a business into ground. And there is no law that says that they have to pay for their errors. So i think its important how the contract looks.
Anyway... nef hurt the wallet of glbse-shareholders and when he fight this out on the back of the glbse-users... who will ever work with him again showing such disrespect to partners and customers?

Maybe he will just transfer all shares & bonds to LEGAL exchange (Bitcoinglobal).
Coz already, most of the asset issuers identity is known, they cant runaway from government to hide their money, if they do anything illegal in respect to assets they issued.

So, no good/other way, but go in Nefario's way.

Maybe thats his thought so that people are forced to work with him again. But then he wrote in the article that it needs a million $ crowdfunded to create such a platform legally. So this will never happen. There will be no new platform and such plan cant go into realitzation. Luckily. Because what would it be for a businessrelation when the parttaker are forced to it and doesnt trust the ceo at all. That cant live for long of course.
So i dont fear this possibility.

I'll wait to see what kind of "solution" he'll come up with for the "problem" of sharing the data sitting in his computer. No need to further pursue the case if all the issuers I need to deal with are likely to agree. However, I'm willing fly to UK and file my complaint if there is a joint community action before that happens.

The problem is, there are issuers that are accused of being scammers, and Nefario's "solution" may very likely prevent us from pursuing those people and therefore help them get away with it. Since Nefario was acting as the broker, he is solely responsible for the communication between those issuers and shareholders. His responsibility still continues. He not only has to inform the issuer of my presence, he is required to give me signed proof of ownership.

At least Nefario returning bitcoins & may open exchange again, instead of running away like pirateat40

I agree, but note that Pirate wasn't a prominent figure representing Bitcoin and he wasn't trying to be one. There are reasons we trusted Nefario, and he actively tried to convince us, on record, that what's currently happening was impossible.

[theymos]

Nefario has proven himself to be ridiculously incompetent, so it might be safer for people who received extra BTC to hold it until Nefario distributes all of the BTC he has and he releases the share info.

So would we be right in assuming that no-one's going to authorise any salary payments to Nefario until this mess has been cleaned up and that the business will use its own remaining funds to top-up any shortfall if Nefario is unable to recover all the over-payments?

Yes. I never paid Nefario, and there's no way I'm going to pay him as long as BitcoinGlobal is in debt to users. And the remaining operating funds will be used to cover any debt to users. If most people who received extra BTC are honest and Nefario didn't spend any of the user funds (on lawyers or whatever), I think there should be enough money.

[organofcorti]

not true, he did ask for and many people did send that info.

To get the bitcoin sitting unattached in your GLBSE account?

[fbastage]

is Nefario sending his AML/KYC documentation to everyone he needs the double-send refund from?

*snicker*

but seriously, my heart weeps for this whole situation. :|

if there's any way I can help (doubt it, though) short of sending anyone my own funds, let me know.

[Shadow383]

I've had the BTC that was in my GLBSE account - which is not even 1% of the value (at the time of closure) of the assets I held on there 

[theymos]

People should "hold" BTC that is not theirs and they know it is not theirs? People have got the scammers tag before for doing just that... I do not see how this is "safer". You are asking them to accept a liability cuz Nefario is fail...

If anyone received coin that is not theirs they should return it ASAP! It is the correct thing to do.

I'm shocked at what Theymos is advocating here...

Yes Nefario is clearly incompetent but holding on to something that is not theirs is just wrong.

The money isn't Nefario's, either. I trust random recipients of the money more than I trust Nefario.

If anything the money should go to the paper wallet address untill things get sorted out.

[greyhawk]

No, because Nefario can go to the police now esp if he has AML docs on these people.

No, he can't. Because his collecting AML docs as an unregistered finanical institution was illegal as well in most jurisdictions.

[conspirosphere.tk]

They must give back the coins ASAP anything else is criminal and scamming. Shame on Theymos for suggesting such immoral actions.
I don't trust Nefario either but two wrongs do not make a right.

A few months ago I returned immediately much more than my double payment (0.40 BTC) to Flax and Chungenung, since they sent me BTC due to an error of them.
Now, though, returning these bitcents to nefario seems to me like call back a thieve who has already taken your wallet to give him your watch.
Moreover, I am quite sure that I had more than 0.7 BTC in my GLBSE account a couple of hours before the closing.

The fact that he is threatening instead of returning immediately my 140 BTC in assets just persuades me of what a scum he is, and I do not like to follow the orders of someone who just stolen my property.

BTW: at this moment 5 people obeyed nef. :

I'd think Nefario's expecting the double payment in full and at this point has to trust everyone for their honesty.

No idea about that, but I don't think it was meant as a literal threat to chase you. Seems more like he meant it would be easier if people just returned it instead of him losing time and nagging everyone for the return of the BTC. Although without any voice tone, it's impossible to determinate. Poor communication there.

He DID repay asset issuers their Bitcoins.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As for people suggesting to keep the overpayment as ransom until asset information is disclosed, I think that's exactly why asset information is not disclosed. He needs to process payments first before giving the address to issuers and issuers giving payments, otherwise it would get confusing if something is a payment from GLBSE or from an issuer.

I'd also think like Chaang that it's plain wrong to hold on to something you know is not yours. Even if by now no one trusts Nefario. It belongs to other persons. At least return the 80% extra and keep 100%, sending from the address you provided to GLBSE, so Nefario knows how much you personally sent back. So long as it's from the same address, he'll know.

A lot of people would be better off keeping the overpayment than being able to claim their now worthless shares/bonds from asset issuers so I wish him good luck with trying to get people to honour his request.

Nefario appears to have been taking customer relations lessons from Patrick Strateman.

As for that and others making such claims... plain wrong. Although I don't agree that the shares are now valueless, even if they were... you'd cut your loss by keeping other's balance and leaving others with nothing?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Welcome to bitcoin.

Sent to address I control = mine. Period.

Need chargebacks, pay with creditcards.

If an agreement for my holding someone elses coin is in place, or I am to provide some value for an investment, etc - and failed to come through, sure I should be ostracized by the community.

But to say that keeping coins that magically appeared one night on my address with absolutely no agreement in place regarding the transaction, are not mine, is laughable.

If someone accidentally sent you too much money on a bank account you "control", although it's been sent in your possession, a good thing to do would be to return them. Everyone can make errors and if you'd want someone to return the same should you make a similar mistake... simple courtesy, even if according to your convictions, any money handed to you automatically becomes yours. Yes, although laws would say it would not be yours, people might consider things differently, which doesn't mean they'd have to be jerks about it and not notify/give back the extra someone would have mistakenly handed to them.

We're all not happy about GLBSE closing down, but the vengeful approach taken by some for actions done by Nefario that are detrimental to other people that were on GLBSE is plain disgusting to me. Good to know who are taking a step on everyone and take the lifeboat for yourself approach when the ship is sinking.

(P.S. Before someone counters by saying I don't get to say what's right and wrong. Yes you're free to have your own opinion of right and wrong. Just stating mine.)

[Yogafan00000]

I recieved a double payment.  I have no problem with returning the excess. The Bitcoin culture needs more honesty and I'm willing to do my part. However, it's evident that whoever is in charge of the GLBSE winding down cannot be trusted to get it done correctly.

Therefore, before I send any coins, I want an official request emailed from the GLBSE website, not some posting by someone with a scammer tag on this forum.  (I only noticed I had been double paid because of this thread)

I also want to be able to retrieve details on all my transctions on the GLBSE site before it went dark.  The only way I'll be satisfied that my account has been settled is if I reconcile it myself.

[Namworld]

Well that's more like it. Demanding your account history or personal data along with an official request is perfectly fine to me before returning the double payment.

[Bitcoin Oz]

You are asking people to keep BTC that is not theirs.

-----

On a side thought: Nef has not given anyone asset info / csv - how are people who do not read this thread, and who got a large payment, to know that the extra payment wasn't from dividends / sales or somesuch.

Theymos has in the past gave a guy a scammers tag for keeping BTC that he knew was not his. Theymos is asking everyone here to take a scammers tag!

I would be demanding my .csv and other details before giving the coins back 

[SebastianJu]

No, because Nefario can go to the police now esp if he has AML docs on these people. When the police knock on the door and say where are the funds saying Theymos said to keep them is not going to fly. Saying they sent then to someone else will not fly.

They must give back the coins ASAP anything else is criminal and scamming. Shame on Theymos for suggesting such immoral actions.

Sorry but when you send someone money through wire and accidentally changed a number... you wont get back the money. You sent it and it wasnt stolen. Its moral to give it back but the bank wont charge it back or something. Only when its stolen.

He DID repay asset issuers their Bitcoins.

What? Asset issuers got their bitcoins back? I think at least for asicminer, who hadnt a small amount there, its not true. Asicminer didnt get an answer at all from nef till now.

Regarding the asset information... its not correct to held these informations hostage. Im not guilty for not paying any fee to nef from my bitcoins(i didnt got all) and i cant do anything regarding the missing ceo-payment. So no, its not correct what he is doing here.

By the way... its not necessary that nef cant give out the asset infos as long as he didnt paid out all btc because he can send an email stating what he paid. So there shouldnt be a misunderstanding. And that you now say that we only get the asset info after all payments are paid, and that includes the doublepayment is paid back, that would mean i would never get the asset info. Because there will always be someone dont paying back. And no i cant do anything again here but dont get the asset info because of that?

[D.H.]

But to say that keeping coins that magically appeared one night on my address with absolutely no agreement in place regarding the transaction, are not mine, is laughable.

Magically appeared? You know who sent it, you know that it was a mistake and you know how to return it.

If someone accidentally left a wallet in your house and then knocked on your door asking to get it back, would you do the same? "Oh, you mean this wallet that magically appeared on my living room table? Well, we didn't have an agreement regarding that so I think I'll keep it. Thanks!"

Ohh, come on people. There is nothing to discuss here about returning the funds or not.

They are not ours, keeping them is more or less stealing, period.

And also you are probably not keeping Nefarios funds, but Money that is needed to pay out the people that haven't got a payout, yet.

So everyone that is at least a bit honest should return the funds.

I haven't returned them yet, but all I want is (1) to get clarification on the 10% issue.
 - I could just return -10%, but that might ruin Nefarios payout script, when he returns the 10% to the other accounts.

(2) To now if and how he checks which accounts have returned the double payment, as I fear that he will hold the double paid accounts Stock hostage until funds have been returned and I don't want to end up having to proof that I have returned them, with having virtually no way to contact him.

It would be better to return the coins without me having to chase you for them.

About a month ago, the cashier at a restaurant I used to frequent regularly gave me $5 USD too much in change. I immediately bought the mistake to her attention, returning the fin because I like the establishment. Three days later, a cashier at KFC returned to me change which included an extra $10 USD. I nonchalantly pocketed the sawbuck and left the premises. Fuck them nefarious bastards who kill chickens, use some kind of secret herb and spices, have me pre-order, then make me wait in line for my meal.

I have no fear of some KFC guy chasing me down to have me return ten bucks. In fact, if it were a hundred dollar mistake, I still wouldn't have a concern. And they're a global entity. I've even returned to the same franchise--twice--taunting them to ask me to return the money, but they have yet to take the bait. I'm willing to bet that they know, that I know, that they know something's afoot, but can put a chicken finger on it.

Bottomline, Nefario, kindly ask for the overpayments to be returned, thanking all those who comply. The funds you don't get returned, eat it, continuing to refund those waiting, otherwise the chaser may become the chasee.

Of course keep the amount Nefario owes you and send back the rest.  For all you know the script was meant to send you the remaining 10% but instead just redid the last payment amount.

This is unacceptable. I received a duplicate payment, a trivial amount, and I will return it. But not based on a forum post, and not to a common BTC address. Please send an email to the email address that was submitted for claims, with an individual BTC return address for each account, so that I can prove that I returned the excess coins. Statements of how much BTC and assets I actually held at GLBSE would be nice too.

[stochastic]

I would rather send him the coins back cause he may refuse to give you list of your assets (+ codes or whatever) afterwards.

How do you know that Nefario is still even using his bitcointalk account?  How do you know someone did not hack his account?

Give him the excess coins after he returns your assets and sends an actual email out.  That would prove it is him.

Also, how do we know the database is even intact?  It took less than a thought to delist all of Goats assets and send him claim codes.  If Nefario can run the payment script twice he is just as likely to 'accidentally' delete the database.  You really want someone that flushed away 1,000 BTC in 10 minutes to play around with the database well more than 1,000BTC?

Why would he 'accidentally' erase the database?  People might be able to come after him for lost bitcoins, but they can't come after him for the assets, especially unregistered, unregulated assets denominated in something not considered money.  Nefario is the only one with the evidence.  This whole claims process should have been done by someone else at BitcoinGlobal since Nefario pisses his pants when he even imagines a government regulator.

He could have easily sent the assets back first, then the bitcoins.

Is that sure? Because i didnt get my payment again. So that means nefario took some of my coins as a fee or what? If not i should have gotten the doublepayment. So where did i say yes to this fee?

If such "accident" or anything happens to the database no one would believe it. Backups are common sense especially for websites handling money.
If this happens it would be clear why. And i fear the anger of people could be enough for him to fear for his life. I mean even now there is so much anger. How will it be when its clear he killed the database? I will not imagine.

Is there a list of double pay transactions somewhere?

I had most of my coins invested in shares and received a <1 BTC transaction that was my recent dividends from before the shutdown.

Even though it is a small amount I would like to return this if it was double payed, but I really have no clue what my balance was at shutdown.

If you had gotten a double payment then you would have gotten 2 transactions with the exact same amount. You sound like you got only one payment so you arent one of them.

Not exactly true, in the first round of payments GLBSE sent multiple amounts to the same user.  It does not come as one single amount.  I got two payments from GLBSE for the same amount but that was because they divided my claim into two payments.

Welcome to bitcoin.

Sent to address I control = mine. Period.

Need chargebacks, pay with creditcards.

If an agreement for my holding someone elses coin is in place, or I am to provide some value for an investment, etc - and failed to come through, sure I should be ostracized by the community.

But to say that keeping coins that magically appeared one night on my address with absolutely no agreement in place regarding the transaction, are not mine, is laughable.

Ohh, come on people. There is nothing to discuss here about returning the funds or not.

If people were appealing to others to return on strong morals and good character, I would agree there would be nothing to discuss.

Unfortunately, people are making loaded statements and claiming that failure to return is "criminal" "scamming" "theft" etc

I have made the case that it is not.

While taking action to return the funds would be laudable. Taking no action at all should not be considered criminal, scamming, or theft

You haven't brought any argument so far other that if someone hands you more cash than intended, you consider it perfectly okay to just keep it and not do anything about it because there was no prior agreement that you would return said fund backs. No contract to show, no way to force a chargeback, you keep it. Perfectly knowing there's too much and the funds are needed to pay others still awaiting there payment.

If people were appealing to others to return on strong morals and good character, I would agree there would be nothing to discuss.

Well that's exactly what people here seems to be asking for. To return it on good faith because you know someone's else account needs those funds to be paid out.

So depending on if you like the establishment, you'll keep extra change handed? The establishment can take it no problem, but that's really dishonest, especially for the employee who has nothing to do with the quality of the establishment. He just happen to work there and a non-balancing cash register will get him troubles. Especially when your argument is that you do that to them because they make "kill chicken & make you wait in line". It's a fast food. What did you expect? I don't see much value in your statement. You go somewhere on your own free will in a fast food and then avenge yourself for not liking the place because it's managed like you'd expect a fast food to be? Unless the employees were real jerks but you forgot to mention it.

If you deserve it, you will get it.

That's the thing, you can believe as much as you want that he's incompetent and be angry all you want about GLBSE's closure, in the end, he hasn't stolen those funds. He's trying to distribute them and accidentally rerun the script for the 90% payment. Those funds are needed to pay those who haven't been paid yet. Keeping the funds to do yourself your own justice for GLBSE closing down and making you wait? It's the funds of other depositors you'd be keeping. It's not harming Nefario at all, I don't think his reputation could sink lower around here. Only thing keeping the funds can achieve is depriving other depositors from getting their balance paid out.

You haven't brought any argument so far other that if someone hands you more cash than intended, you consider it perfectly okay to just keep it and not do anything about it because there was no prior agreement that you would return said fund backs.

Nice quote right there eh

[Namworld]

But that's the problem, it's GLBSE's users fund. He couldn't give that money to you because it never was his to start with. He was not the owner of those funds.

Not quite.
I do however think it is important to establish the fact that doing so is not an indicator of criminality.
  poor morals and character sure, but criminal, no way.

If you walk down the strip handing out all your money while drunk, later claiming the recipients stole from you makes no sense.
Your buddies might say, "man, how fucked up were you all drunk and playing santa, here is that fin back"...
  but you shouldn't go to the cops and try to charge the homeless dude you also paid, with theft, for not giving it back.

It's more akin to handing a pack of bills to the wrong recipient or someone making you a payment and accidentally having an extra bill in it. He wasn't drunk and willingly giving it away and coming back saying "wait, I changed my mind, I was drunk, bad decision." Because in that example you gave, indeed you couldn't possibly expect to demand the money back as it was given to you willingly. But it's not what happened here, not counting it's not his funds on top of it.

Really, it doesn't seem like something that would impact Nefario at all as his reputation is already ruined. It would however hurt other GLBSE users for which no money will be left to proceed with paying out the balance.

[Indemnified]

People should "hold" BTC that is not theirs and they know it is not theirs? People have got the scammers tag before for doing just that... I do not see how this is "safer". You are asking them to accept a liability cuz Nefario is fail...

If anyone received coin that is not theirs they should return it ASAP! It is the correct thing to do.

I'm shocked at what Theymos is advocating here...

Yes Nefario is clearly incompetent but holding on to something that is not theirs is just wrong.

The money isn't Nefario's, either. I trust random recipients of the money more than I trust Nefario.

It does not matter who you trust. You are asking people to keep BTC that is not theirs.

If anything the money should go to the paper wallet address untill things get sorted out.

No, because Nefario can go to the police now esp if he has AML docs on these people. When the police knock on the door and say where are the funds saying Theymos said to keep them is not going to fly. Saying they sent then to someone else will not fly.

They must give back the coins ASAP anything else is criminal and scamming. Shame on Theymos for suggesting such immoral actions.

I don't trust Nefario either but two wrongs do not make a right.

 

I have no intention of using funds that were mistakenly sent to me for my personal benefit (as can be attested to by several members of this forum with whom I have worked out errors). At the same time, I have no intention of returning said funds to an incompetent non-communicator until a plan for remediation of this whole g0d-awful situation is outlined.  So back way way off on your attempted moralizing until perhaps you have contributed to a planned solution. The funds that I received in error are a very tiny fraction of my hard eaned non scam assets sitting out of my reach with the incompetent.

A plan for remediation? He's currently processing the payment of balances and should afterward work on releasing assets data to issuers. The process is currently ongoing albeit slow. The same address used to receive your balance will be put together with everyone's info and assets balance and be sent to issuers. You'll be able to sign message with your BTC address to issuers which is a safe solution for proving ownership compared to the criticized claim codes used previously.  There's not really any solution to further propose.

I don't see how keeping the funds would help in anything, other than delaying the repayment of the other depositors.

As for doing it competently, I cannot say. But the wording on GLBSE.com was pretty clear that asset balances along with email + BTC address would be relayed to issuers.

So people should not send back bitcoins from the double payments because there's no reason to believe he'll pay back because he can't cover the loss of the double payment? Is that serious? He has been paying out balances so far, why wouldn't he pursue that? If he wanted to steal those funds he wouldn't have returned any balance at all.

As for screwing BitcoinGlobal shareholders and closing GLBSE without warning, yes, I completely agree it's a very bad move. It doesn't mean he's gone and won't do anything. For once a website suddenly closing isn't running away with users funds. We have every reason to be dissatisfied, but I see no reason to think he will not attempt to process all balances & assets as best as he can. For what his best is worth...

The logs of his meeting with BitcoinGlobal shareholders screamed of a court order or chickening out in the face of possible legal issues. It doesn't seems he's closing GLBSE for the heck of it. He claims not having a choice.

If I received a double payment I would send the extra back, but only when GLBSE sends me an email telling me: (1) they made a double payment, (2) how much I had in my account when it closed, and (3) contain a link to a form on GLBSE that gives a unique bitcoin payment address that will prove that I returned the coins.

I trust his stories of backups as much as I trust GLBSE woudn't shut down without notifying asset issuers of the beneficial owners of shares. He could even, heaven forbid, get sick and unable to function before my next dividends are due.

[dishwara]

Perfect business trick.
Nefario was given scammer tag, coz he didn't payback the bitcoins & assets in GLBSE.

Now he sent double payments & ordered to return the bitcoins, which makes whoever received the bitcoins & not giving it back has to get scammer tag.
How many persons will be given scammer tag in this forum for not paying back the double payment?

@Badbear: what you going to do about this?

Edit:I think badbear gave scammer tag, not theymos.

@Theymos: what you going to do about this?

There is no trick. Nefario holds the records of my asset ownership. He sends that to the issuer and me, I send him back any overpayment. Since your honesty is above reproach, you act as escrow, o.k.? Passes your morality test?

[dishwara]

I never wanted to act as an escrow & never asked anyone to follow me in speaking truth or try to be honest.

Scammer tag was given to nefario when he didn't returned money.
Now he starts paying them & sent double payments to some & asked to send back double payed coins.

If the person, who holding others money, even after knowing that, its not his money, will be given sacmmer tag?
coz nefario was given scammer tag for holding others money knowingly.

[Phinnaeus Gage]

Welcome to bitcoin.

Sent to address I control = mine. Period.

Need chargebacks, pay with creditcards.

If an agreement for my holding someone elses coin is in place, or I am to provide some value for an investment, etc - and failed to come through, sure I should be ostracized by the community.

But to say that keeping coins that magically appeared one night on my address with absolutely no agreement in place regarding the transaction, are not mine, is laughable.

Ohh, come on people. There is nothing to discuss here about returning the funds or not.

If people were appealing to others to return on strong morals and good character, I would agree there would be nothing to discuss.

Unfortunately, people are making loaded statements and claiming that failure to return is "criminal" "scamming" "theft" etc

I have made the case that it is not.

While taking action to return the funds would be laudable. Taking no action at all should not be considered criminal, scamming, or theft

You haven't brought any argument so far other that if someone hands you more cash than intended, you consider it perfectly okay to just keep it and not do anything about it because there was no prior agreement that you would return said fund backs. No contract to show, no way to force a chargeback, you keep it. Perfectly knowing there's too much and the funds are needed to pay others still awaiting there payment.

If people were appealing to others to return on strong morals and good character, I would agree there would be nothing to discuss.

Well that's exactly what people here seems to be asking for. To return it on good faith because you know someone's else account needs those funds to be paid out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, for anyone reading this who has gotten a double payment, the return address is 1BgPRMk4uaJrohM1T9Cn4Hd9pHaEL6FH5j

It would be better to return the coins without me having to chase you for them.

About a month ago, the cashier at a restaurant I used to frequent regularly gave me $5 USD too much in change. I immediately bought the mistake to her attention, returning the fin because I like the establishment. Three days later, a cashier at KFC returned to me change which included an extra $10 USD. I nonchalantly pocketed the sawbuck and left the premises. Fuck them nefarious bastards who kill chickens, use some kind of secret herb and spices, have me pre-order, then make me wait in line for my meal.

I have no fear of some KFC guy chasing me down to have me return ten bucks. In fact, if it were a hundred dollar mistake, I still wouldn't have a concern. And they're a global entity. I've even returned to the same franchise--twice--taunting them to ask me to return the money, but they have yet to take the bait. I'm willing to bet that they know, that I know, that they know something's afoot, but can put a chicken finger on it.

Bottomline, Nefario, kindly ask for the overpayments to be returned, thanking all those who comply. The funds you don't get returned, eat it, continuing to refund those waiting, otherwise the chaser may become the chasee.

~Bruno K~

So depending on if you like the establishment, you'll keep extra change handed? The establishment can take it no problem, but that's really dishonest, especially for the employee who has nothing to do with the quality of the establishment. He just happen to work there and a non-balancing cash register will get him troubles. Especially when your argument is that you do that to them because they make "kill chicken & make you wait in line". It's a fast food. What did you expect? I don't see much value in your statement. You go somewhere on your own free will in a fast food and then avenge yourself for not liking the place because it's managed like you'd expect a fast food to be? Unless the employees were real jerks but you forgot to mention it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A thief asking to return his stolen money is like asking for "fucking respect".

If you deserve it, you will get it.

That's the thing, you can believe as much as you want that he's incompetent and be angry all you want about GLBSE's closure, in the end, he hasn't stolen those funds. He's trying to distribute them and accidentally rerun the script for the 90% payment. Those funds are needed to pay those who haven't been paid yet. Keeping the funds to do yourself your own justice for GLBSE closing down and making you wait? It's the funds of other depositors you'd be keeping. It's not harming Nefario at all, I don't think his reputation could sink lower around here. Only thing keeping the funds can achieve is depriving other depositors from getting their balance paid out.

I don't have a drumstick to stand on in reference to the the non-bold text (first half), but as far as the bolded text is concerned, I think you missed the joke when I penned:

Fuck them nefarious bastards who kill chickens, use some kind of secret herb and spices, have me pre-order, then make me wait in line for my meal.

If said event happened at Burger King, the word monarch may have migrated into that sentence. Hopefully, the bolded text now liberates the humor.

The point in relaying the now unfortunate-for-me story was to drive the following home in a very kind way to Dr. Nefario/James:

Bottomline, Nefario, kindly ask for the overpayments to be returned, thanking all those who comply. The funds you don't get returned, eat it, continuing to refund those waiting, otherwise the chaser may become the chasee.

I think the double payment should be paid back. In real world its probably true that, if you send someone money through wire and you accidentally changed a number that you dont get your money back but its a different thing for businesses. For example the cases where a bank send one of their customers some million euro and he has to pay it back of course because its not his.

The double payment mostly isnt worth the amount of assets one owned but you can be sure that nef wont run the assetinfo until this money is back. So you can try and blackmail nef with not giving back this money... but why should he care about? Its not his money and he showed that he wants to pay back most of it. So blackmailing him will only lead to the point where he can point with the finger at you guys and say "Look... these are the bad guys" and nothing will move. You know its true. He hasnt shown any responsibility for the damage he caused and feels he is doing everything right. Wants the last months ceo payment and so on even though his shareholders probably suffered higher loss than this because of his actions. I mean would you stop a business this way that afterwards everyone is angry at you? I mean when i would do it i would expect that it will cost me something. And when its only to not leave them all angry.

You try to blackmail him... with money that is not nefarios but belongs to other normal users. He wont care. Why should he? And why should he follow the blackmailing?

You guys deliver him a perfect excuse to not going further.

Perfect business trick.
Now he sent double payments & ordered to return the bitcoins

Or this ^ (deleted some of your lines) is the business trick because nef can be sure that at least some dont pay back. So he could create a perfect excuse why he cant process the sharesinfo.

[Deprived]

The issue of returning extra coins sent in error isn't as black and white as either side seems to think.

The general principle (in the UK) is that if you know they aren't yours then you have to return them.  Where the problem arises here is that, so far, nefario hasn't released the information necessary for people to establish how many coins they were actually supposed to be sent.  Once he's provided .csv files of transaction histories then people can verify how much they should have received and return the extra.  Right now he hasn't even given a good explanation of why GLBSE had to close down in a rush - let alone given the information necessary for people to verify what funds they were due.

His primary (original) reason for shutting down was AML.  An entirely credible reasons - but undermined by his subsequent behaviour.  He initially insisted that his legal advice was that he had to obtain ID info for everyone - then retreated very quickly from that position without any explanation.  Was his original legal advice wrong?  Was he just making up that legal advice?  Who knows.

It is absolutely 100% certain that he misled or lied to his fellow shareholders in their irc discussion in respect of his legal advice.  There is NO WAY that a single solicitor could represent both GLBSE (collectively) and nefario (individually) when (as was made perfectly plain in the irc log) his personal objectives were definitely not fully aligned with those of all his fellow shareholders/officers (the officers is the key part).  There's also NO WAY a solicitor could give advice to the company as a whole whilst telling nefario he couldn't tell his fellow officers about it - if the information was only relevant to nefario then his PERSONAL solicitor should be dealing with it.  It's also standard practice in the UK that when advised by a solicitor on a significant business issue, you are then sent a written summary of their advice.  This should have been provided to (at least) the other officers, if not to all shareholders (there's a difference between passive shareholders and actual officers who participate in running the business).

I can understand nefario maybe not understanding what a conflict of interest is.  But I'd be shocked if a solicitor didn't - they tend to try desperately to avoid such conflicts as it leaves them open to liability and complaints of malpractice.  I've had a solicitor refuse to advise me on an issue that arose whilst I was working under instructions from them (and a barrister I was working with on the same matter also refused to give advice) even though the actual solution to the issue that had arisen (which was arrived at after taking independent legal advice) was fairly simple and not detrimental to any of us.  I can only surmise that nefario either consulted on an individual basis and/or played down the involvement of theymos etc such that the solicitor concluded they had no part in actually running GLBSE.

In short, nefario has been less than honest and open so far - both to users of GLBSE and to his own business partners.  There's, thus, no reason anyone should be willing to take his unsupported word on what they're owed.  And how much should be sent back anyway?  Has he even ever stated whether the whole 2nd payment was an error - or was it meant to be sending the last 10%?

Note: I received all (I believe - though can't confirm obviously) my tiny amount of funds back in the first batch of payments.  I haven't received any 2nd payment so have nothing personally to decide whether to return, how much to return or who to return it to.  If I HAD received an overpayment then I'd be putting the 2nd payment in cold storage then waiting until I had the information necessary to determine precisely what I WAS owed AND had either received back control of my assets OR received a good explanation of why they weren't being returned before sending any funds anywhere.

If he's spewing funds around at random then there's no guarantee returning them to him would get them to whoever their rightful owner is anyway.  He could have just disabled trading/transfers and left the site up so we could withdraw and verify our holdings now that he no longer required ID information.  And if there's specific accounts that he can't do that on (e.g. if he has been given specific instructions in respect of asset issuers) then the withdrawal functionality could have been removed from them.

[dishwara]

I don't think Nefario sent double payment by mistake.
He deliberately sent double payment to cause problems.

He got scammer tag for not giving back bitcoins.
& now those who gave scammer tag, must give scammer tags to those who don't payback also.

[theymos]

How many persons will be given scammer tag in this forum for not paying back the double payment?

If you know that you received extra money, I think you have a moral responsibility to try and return it (maybe minus a few percent).

However, in this case:
- You can't return it to the rightful owners directly.
- Nefario is obviously very incompetent and untrustworthy, so it would be reasonable to think that returning the money to him would not get the money to the rightful owners.
- Nefario is holding hostage your assets and the BTC of most users, so I think you would be morally justified in refusing to return the money until those things are released.

So I'm certainly not going to give recipients of the extra money scammer tags at least until Nefario releases most of the BTC and asset info.

[Phinnaeus Gage]

No, because Nefario can go to the police now esp if he has AML docs on these people.

No, he can't. Because his collecting AML docs as an unregistered finanical institution was illegal as well in most jurisdictions.

This post bothers me. (don't want to derail or post OT, so will keep what I want to relay in the content of N, but applies to others who...)

I've seen the mega thread about AML as it relates to Mt Gox, reading most of the posts, albeit not retraining a lot of the info, but feel I got the gist, but not until now realized a possible deeper motive by those who request AML docs under the guise that they're entitled/obligated to request said documents.

A couple questions come to mind:

• Is what Nefario did legal? (collecting AML docs as a UFI)
• What are said docs worth on the BM?
• How could this private information in the wrong hands affect the future of those who supplied said docs?
• What other entities in the Bitcoin world collected said docs under illegal pretense, and are no longer around (include those still active)?

Again, I hope my post here doesn't derail this thread. If the subject matter is important, somebody please start another thread to address these very important concerns.

Thanks.

Those docs are worth anywhere from $50 to $500 or more depending on credit, and they will use them to falsify credit card applications and possibly get the person whos ID they stole arrested if it is not seen as ID theft.

You can point to other people and say they are the reason why you have no responsibility for your failures. But that is not how I tick. I have hundreds of customers myself and if I make a mistake I always fix it. Even if it costs me money. Customers are never responsible for my mistakes. And I expect the same from everybody else. It is about taking responsibility. Morality will come second. I am sure most people are still honest here and if they feel you deserve it, they will return what is not rightfully theirs. But only after the people responsible for this mess have cleaned it up as good as they can.

Its ok not to trust nefario but what you are saying will actually lead to the point were nefario wont give out any more payment nor the assetinfo. And you know that he wont give it out. So just in case nefario made this double payment on purpose to not have to give out the assetinfo you quite perfectly play his game.
And till now nefario showed that he wants to pay back. As far as i read there are paid back not small amounts already. Even though only getting 90% of the btc back... the assetinfo is worth more for the assetowners. Its worth nothing to nefario.

This is all speculation. Likely, but speculation. You will never get everyone to return their double payments, so Nefario will always have a reason to point to that and say it is not his fault he is stalling. Instead it could be more productive if customers made a united stand and responded that this mess has to be fixed first. Customers are not responsible for this fuck-up. Also see the post above your post.

This overpayment doesn't give Nefario a good excuse to keep asset info for most users. Maybe he could keep it for those people who were over-paid, but not for everyone.

Deprived, theymos, deeplink, I understand those points, but Nefario has already lost his reputation and I see no reason he would accept any such blackmailing since it's not his funds. Although as I said, Deprived, I perfectly agree that request to return funds should be communicated properly and people can and should request an official request from Nefario, along with an account statement showing your final balance and assets.

The issue in holding those funds for not trusting Nefario (even if there's no doubt good reasons to not do so) is that it belongs to other issuers. Holding the funds as escrow to force Nefario to release any data makes you appoints yourself as arbitrator and fund holder. This forces whoever those funds belong to to trust those refusing to send the fund back with their money over trusting Nefario, something they never consented to.

If I understand correctly deeplink, you want them to pay for unreturned funds from their own pocket  and release info before sending them the BTC which would end up reimbursing what they paid from their own pocket? You're free to do that if you want. It does seem like their funds are tight, but as many already/are planning to return funds, I'm sure they can come up with a few 1000s USD for the remaining. Albeit I don't agree with people appointing themselves as escrow in the name of others, especially since they can't give or deny consent for this.

[stochastic]

...You guys deliver him a perfect excuse to not going further.

Has anyone not thought that most of those payment addresses that received the "double payment" is Nefario's own addresses?

I have had a teller give me some extra money before.  The reason why I give it back is because the till count will be off and that teller would have to makeup the extra money the teller gave out.

I don't see how this is not the same for Nefario.  He can go forward.  If he does not have any bitcoins left, he can start to release the assets without any problem to asset issuers and claim codes to users.  He can also be contacting all those he sent double payment and ask to receive the funds back, for those that don't he can make up the difference with his money, just like they do in the real world.

A few choice quotes from the shareholder meeting. It's a long read but please go read it for other shareholders' point of view about it. This mostly highlight what Nefario claims.

I've decided to release the October 5th shareholder meeting minutes. I've removed IP addresses and the names of the shareholders that haven't been outed yet. Except for da2ce7, because he supported Nefario right from the beginning. With those exceptions, nothing else was changed.

...
[05/10/2012 18:53:48] <nefario> these are the basic facts the announcement needs to convey: 1) GLBSE is closing, 2) All BTC will be returned to users, 3) Users need to AML, 4) Issuers who are not already verifified will need to do AML, 5) Issuers who have been AML'd will be given all support to move off GLBSE, 6) Users AML'd will be given all support to move their assets off GLBSE
...
[05/10/2012 18:56:08] <nefario> shareholder4: I've talked about this with the lawyer, because there is no way to prove that one person hasn't oppened dozens of accounts with smaller amounts we have to do aml for everyone

[05/10/2012 18:43:31] <nefario> shareholder2: I've not violated the results of any motions

[conspirosphere.tk]

So I'm certainly not going to give recipients of the extra money scammer tags at least until Nefario releases most of the BTC and asset info.

Its ok not to trust nefario but what you are saying will actually lead to the point were nefario wont give out any more payment nor the assetinfo.

I vote to put all the double payments in a legal fund to send Nefario to the jail where he belongs. Moreover I will donate all my GLBSE assets  to the first convict who rapes him.

[Namworld]

And under what cause could you possibly get him sent to prison? He's still processing payments and hasn't ran away with anyone's money, at least for now. He's also closing GLBSE, which is not a crime in itself. People don't go in prison for merely pissing people off.

I think a lawyer might find a lot of good reasons, even if you could argue that "processing payments" may reasonably take a thousand years.

A thief asking to return his stolen money is like asking for "fucking respect".

If you deserve it, you will get it.

That's the thing, you can believe as much as you want that he's incompetent and be angry all you want about GLBSE's closure, in the end, he hasn't stolen those funds. He's trying to distribute them and accidentally rerun the script for the 90% payment. Those funds are needed to pay those who haven't been paid yet. Keeping the funds to do yourself your own justice for GLBSE closing down and making you wait? It's the funds of other depositors you'd be keeping. It's not harming Nefario at all, I don't think his reputation could sink lower around here. Only thing keeping the funds can achieve is depriving other depositors from getting their balance paid out.

You can point to other people and say they are the reason why you have no responsibility for your failures. But that is not how I tick. I have hundreds of customers myself and if I make a mistake I always fix it. Even if it costs me money. Customers are never responsible for my mistakes. And I expect the same from everybody else. It is about taking responsibility. Morality will come second. I am sure most people are still honest here and if they feel you deserve it, they will return what is not rightfully theirs. But only after the people responsible for this mess have cleaned it up as good as they can.

If I understand correctly deeplink, you want them to pay for unreturned funds from their own pocket  and release info before sending them the BTC which would end up reimbursing what they paid from their own pocket? You're free to do that if you want. It does seem like their funds are tight, but as many already/are planning to return funds, I'm sure they can come up with a few 1000s USD for the remaining. Albeit I don't agree with people appointing themselves as escrow in the name of others, especially since they can't give or deny consent for this.

Strange reasoning. Of course I am free to fix their mistakes for them, but why should I, it wasn't me who messed up? If I had, you bet your ass I would.

Yes I want GLBSE to reimburse all customers everything they had. From their own pockets, by taking a loan, by working at McDonalds for the rest of their lives, who cares? Customers do not have to care about how GLBSE fixes their mistakes.

[Namworld]

Indeed I would expect them to pay, regardless of if some do not send back their doubled payment.

Although I don't believe it's the best and easiest way to proceed, I'm perfectly fine with your way of dealing with the situation, so long as the funds are returned once everyone has been paid.

[repentance]

At this regard there is this thread:

No, if anyone is going to find offences which carry potential prison sentences (actual criminal prosecutions for AML type offences are pretty rare), it's the regulatory authorities.  Users can certainly go that route if they want to, but they need to do so mindful of the fact that they were participating in illegal activity themselves and weigh up whether it's worth the risk of finding their own financial dealings under scrutiny.

From the viewpoint of civil law, "clean hands" might be a sticking point.  If the user contracts with GLBSE and the asset issuers are illegal in and of themselves, then civil action to try to enforce them may well be futile.

So you are saying that since GLBSE users were not innocent, they would better suck whatever comes?
I'd rather go in jail with Nefarious.

[repentance]

Tell  me what you believe your legal options are.  For a start, the amounts owed to most people would likely fall into the realm of small claims and small claims is an area which often requires the person making the claim to be present at the hearing.  It always requires you to prove your claim and often requires you to demonstrate that the person you're seeking judgement against has been given an opportunity to pay and didn't - ie, that payment is "overdue".  

If you're going to bypass small claims and try for individual lawsuits, then you're running into a real problem both with expense and with the court examining whether or not the activity in which people were engaging with GLBSE was legal.  As you can't file a lawsuit anonymously, you are tying yourself to an illegal activity in a legal forum in order to pursue an amount which is probably less than the fines you'd be facing for participating in that activity.  You'd be a fool to try to represent yourself in any such action, obviously, and international lawsuits are not cheap - you'd be looking at paying lawyers in at least two locations, and your cause of action is what?  That you lost money as a result of Nefario closing down an illegal enterprise?  Good luck with that argument.

Edit.  Just checked UK Civil Rules.  Here's what you're required to do prior to starting court action - including small claims action - against someone in England, Wales and Northern Island.  Annex A is especially important.

http://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil/rules/pd_pre-action_conduct

Annex A is pretty much the only relevant part of that for small claims court in the UK.  Small claims in the UK does NOT require attendance in person unless the claim is disputed.

Anyone claiming would NOT be stating that the lost money because of Nefario closing down an illegal business - as, to date, nefario has issued no statement saying that.  If nefario wanted to claim in his response that he had been running an illegal business then that would be up to him, however unless he could demonstrate that YOU knew it was illegal at the time you invested ot wouldn't exactly be much of a defence.  The actual procedure/form is pretty simple (unless it's changed massively since I last did one a few years back), however I wouldn't recommend anyone go this route for a few reasons:

1.  It's very likely nefario is going to pay everyone/give everyone details on their assets anyway.  He's just doing it in the slowest, most convoluted and error-prone manner he could devise.
2.  Forget small claims unless you live in the UK.
3.  I'm dubious whether, if disputed, it would get to remain a small-claims case - as issues like whether bitcoin have monetary value are likely to be considered too complex for the fast-track system.  So would claiming against a partnership where most partners arent known and aren't even UK citizens - trying to pin it all on nefario would likely be too complex an argument for the small-claims procedure.
4.  Even if you win it doesn't magically give you anything back.  All you get is a judgment saying you are owed a certain amount of money, then the hard part comes - actually getting it.  Bear in mind that any claim is against the company, not against nefario the individual (if his partners believe any loss is down to just him then that's a seperate case for them to resolve).

Frankly, #1 is the main issue.  Not sure why anyone's even considering legal action when all we've so far is total panic and oncompetence from nefario, nothing which suggests he actually intends to defraud anyone (other than, arguably, his fellow share-holders).  My main worry right now is that he'll do something dumb like overwrite his database by mistake - or send everyone someone else's list of assets.  If he's spewing bitcoins around at random I dread to imagine what lists asset issuers are going to get.

[SebastianJu]

This is all speculation. Likely, but speculation. You will never get everyone to return their double payments, so Nefario will always have a reason to point to that and say it is not his fault he is stalling.

Yes, thats why i say its maybe created. I mean you see how many reasons people come up that want to stop their scammy hyip? Its various.

Instead it could be more productive if customers made a united stand and responded that this mess has to be fixed first. Customers are not responsible for this fuck-up. Also see the post above your post.

Um... what kind of pressure do you think can be done? Dont you see how angry the people in here are? I mean the next step would be physical violence or something. I dont see how one could pressure nefario even more now and still being lawful.

Im with you saying that not all people will give the money back easily. But i say there were worse excuses for not giving back from various hyip-scam-artists.

I gave Nefario a paper wallet address and after double checking that the 90% were paid as announced, I was waiting for an email notification for the remaining 10%.

Was not checking the balance after that, since right now I do have other things to do (like processing claims for my ZETA-MINING bonds ). Tonight I received an email from Nef asking to return the double payments, which I did after checking that I in fact received two times the exact same payments for two accounts.

Just got off the phone with James, he said he's not going to be producing trading history for anyone. As for releasing shareholder data, he said that he's asking for the extra coins his script sent out to be returned, and it looks like he won't be releasing shareholder data to issuers until that happens. He said about 3/4 of the extra coins have been returned.

I take back what I said, he is a crook.  It is unreasonable to expect to receive all the coins he mistakenly sent to other people.  Also there is no proof those bitcoin address were real and not created by Nefario to embezzle funds and make it look like people won't return the coins back.

I believe if he was actually going to return shareholder data to issuers he would have done that first.  He is likely not doing so as it would open him up to liability and his silly fear of the government.

Then you see no problem even in bank robberies I guess.

I have not yet confirmed that this is the reason why he has not released the information to the issuers and I find it unlikely. As it's probably not the issuers that have the extra BTC but the asset holders. In which case a personal boycott of each person which did not send back the double payment would be more efficient.
I will call James and have a chat with him I am sure that he's not holding anyone hostage over this and that it can be explained.

How is it that you have this privileged phone access to Nefario? Why hasn't Nefario been updating to this forum all along with his intentions and actions (and problems)? I would appreciate information to come directly from Nefario, not processed through the filter of your reported phone conversations. Nefario's lack of communication has been the problem all along.

We know of at least 370 BTC returned by people for sure.
124.84280414 BTC by 17 different people onto a general address.
and 245.7032832 BTC by Zephyr onto an individual address.
Nefario assigns different addresses to different people, which is in accord with popular demand.

These amounts looks like being returned as well:
55.7246187 BTC http://blockchain.info/address/14CQiJAiA5o8go8PWc27BjkNA4v2t7QFEt
37.9993912 BTC http://blockchain.info/address/1AcNDLYUwtDFbUhJLKa5DH7Rw9PKpSy2D7

It sums up to about a half of the double payments. Garr255 cited Nefario saying 3/4 of extra coins are back.
The "honesty factor" is not small and is still growing.

Nefario can give issuers all the data without the assets of the ones who haven't returned the coins.

//DeaDTerra

The problem is that "unofficial" statements through third parties look like weasel behaviour.  We have no way to judge their veracity and it gives Nefario plausible deniability.  He needs to make an official statement regarding when he intends to resume the repayment process.  If 75% of the overpayments have been returned there seems to be no good reason why the repayment process can't be resumed right now - from what we've been told, GLBSE should have enough reserves of its own to cover any remaining shortfall.  For someone who's suddenly so worried about legal consequences, Nefario is acting very stupidly if he believes that he can simply refuse to make further repayments or not put issuers and users in contact with each other until the entirely internal problem of some people not having returned their overpayments is solved. 

[Mushoz]

Is there any way I can get in touch with Nefario? I've submitted my claim, but I've received nothing, nada. No email, no BTC, no list of assets, nothing. Anything I can do besides wait?

[nomnomnom]

Just got off the phone with James, he said he's not going to be producing trading history for anyone. As for releasing shareholder data, he said that he's asking for the extra coins his script sent out to be returned, and it looks like he won't be releasing shareholder data to issuers until that happens. He said about 3/4 of the extra coins have been returned.

I take back what I said, he is a crook.  It is unreasonable to expect to receive all the coins he mistakenly sent to other people.  Also there is no proof those bitcoin address were real and not created by Nefario to embezzle funds and make it look like people won't return the coins back.

I believe if he was actually going to return shareholder data to issuers he would have done that first.  He is likely not doing so as it would open him up to liability and his silly fear of the government.

Indeed this is very unreasonable. Returning the shareholder data should have highest priority. What is so hard in pulling the data from the database.
This is handled so unprofessional it's unbelievable.

Due to newbie restrictions I've not been able to post here till now but I've posting on the newbie board here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=118724.0

I received a double payment: http://blockchain.info/address/1DV8ntyA7dJZPmq41TXbGmwJK75d1DhGiE

Maybe the list of recipients are a hint? If they are all arcor then you know its them. Or if you want maybe send a couple of them an email stating that you want to find out the source that leaked their emails and ask where they used their email.

I wonder what the guys mean that log in to claim their funds and get the message their funds are claimed. I doubt they have insomnia and did it before. So what happened? Did someone other claim them? Or is it a bug?

It's just a misunderstanding.  The message says that you've completed the claims procedure - not that your claim has been fully processed.  All the claims procedure comprises is entering an email address and a BTC address - and the message is just saying that you've already done that.

^^^ He gave his email and BTC address. Upon relogin, he noticed the claim finished notice.

That's exactly how it should be once you input your details.

[SebastianJu]

Ok, i overread it. I only wondered because there were similar sounding questions that let me think they werent able to enter their details. But maybe i misunderstood this too.

[stochastic]

This non-communication by GLBSE and Nefario is a sign that there can be no questioning of the methods, procedures and rules set by Nefario.  He is acting for his own self interest.  It is his way or no way.  If it is in his own self interest to not release asset holder info then he won't. 

Nefario could have asked for input from his clients and GLBSE partners, but instead he said he would do it his own way and no complaint is welcome.  This is the way people act that overestimate their own competency and is a sign of immaturity.  His stubbornness is the direct reason of the failure of GLBSE and the misappropriation of many GLBSE customer bitcoins.  He is a pariah in my opinion and any future endevours he is involved with should be avoided and boycotted.

[kneim]

^^^ He gave his email and BTC address. Upon relogin, he noticed the claim finished notice.

For me it's a big difference. Some weeks ago there was a startpage where I entered email address, BTC address, and if asset information should be forwarded. After entering all information, I thought to have finished all prerequisites.

Now there is a login startpage with other information. Why can I log in? What's their intention? And what about people not yet have entered their BTC address some weeks before?

[Namworld]

The information on the homepage changed, but since you previously entered your address & email, it will only show that the claim is finished when you login. It's normal.

Same here. They owe me about 56 or so coins. No replies to my emails about them

[HorseRider]

He responded to me, but said I had to wait.  He didn't say no... just said I had to wait like everyone else.  I'm not sure what else I can do at this point.  Hopefully he will release that information soon.

I'm currently clawing back overpayments that were made last week.

I've gotten about 1/2 way through the list.

If you've gotten an email saying you have been paid 90% of your funds but no payment was made don't worry, I'm aware of this and those payments will be made.

Following this the final bitcoin payouts will be made and I'll begin getting issuers lists of their asset holders(ones who have approved for their contact details to be shared).

To clarify, if you have not approved to have your payment address and contact details shared with your issuers, you are essentially terminating any contract you have with them.

GLBSE is closed and we won't be acting as a go-between, if you don't want to share any contact details with your issuers then there is no expectation for them to continue any relationship with you anymore (how could they).

@jasinlee, You're mean. I just post the words I got from him, and kid with other people. It does not say that he will actually do what he said. I am not sure, too. If you stop trolling and spend more time on collecting the identity information of him and trying to contact him as hard as I was, you may have contacted him yourself, which might also be helpful when we have to reach the UK police or other authority which Nefario try to stay away from.

Yes it is soooo mean to ask for the money someone pocketed and walked away with, essentially stealing them. Post the contact info here and I will be happy to contact the scam artist.

What makes me different from you is that I chose to be polite at this stage, and still hope everything goes fine with him if he pay back and give out the information, but I'm also trying to be prepared to trace him if he refuse to pay. You don't have to be tough with me, I don't steal your coin. P.S, Nefario owes far more bitcoins than you. And lots of asset on the exchange. I care no less than you do.

Why not we cooperate like this. If you're America, native in English, undertand both the laguage and culture better than me, so I bet that you can do a better job in research how to report Nefario to the police or other authority, and what we should do to make every friends of Nefario know this stealing if he delayed the paying back for too long. You can do that research by yourself and keep everything prepared. Or you send your research to him is far more useful than just curse him around the forum. If you can contact someone live in England is even better. From the Bitcoin Magzine interview, we also know that someone know his new address, if we can unite all the people who knows a piece about him, I guess the probability that Nefario keeps his words will much bigger than just typing "beech" words on this forum.

As I so eloquently pointed out already, its not worth my time. And that was terribly painful to read, I think my eyes are bleeding. The beech, since you are not a native speaker of english I will point out for you that it was a joke. The word beech sounds like bitch, although I am not saying he is not a bitch, I was simply avoiding actually cursing as I feel cursing in general is an indication of a simple mind.  Anyway, he took down his site so he can do out of site out of mind like pirate most likely. If he had planned to pay me back he would have responded to emails, pms, tickets on his site, comments on his blog, etc. Instead, I got an email saying my glbse account had been processed, and he sent me exactly 0. So, Nefario can go have Fornication Under Carnal Knowledge with himself.

You should read carefully... "until MOST of this has been recovered". That means nefario isnt thinking that he will get everything back. That sounds at least sane because its probable that it will be this way.

Not that it makes me feel any better, but thanks.

I've still not been paid anything. No emails, nothing.

Maybe you feel better when you take a look at the first (updated) post of this thread if you didnt do already. It means that already 17% of the usermoney (if it was 8000BTC in total) was returned yet. So something is moving.

Only 17% is REPORTED in this thread, but I'm sure the whole 90% was returned.

There were 8762 BTC returned in two chains: 5000 BTC and 3762 BTC.
The last 1000 BTC of the latter was mistakenly distributed as double payments.

The main point of start is here: http://blockchain.info/address/13H7si7r2VsoaDcESxZnweH18H939ndgZL
There begins a chain of 5000 BTC and 3762 BTC.
The latter ends at: http://blockchain.info/address/12rebn6xb2VJt5YfMokUJvV4msdr7KohfG with amount of 1,058.54 BTC
It was used today to the 1000 BTC chain with duplicates of part of the payments from 3762 BTC chain, but in different order.

Sometimes the same address was used for supposedly different accounts,
for instance: http://blockchain.info/address/19mvuvS2VgCWDtfGpsLnJAPhBp2ZcWM3xQ
(two of its payments, 139+ and 421+ BTC, are not duplicated, but one, 55+ BTC, is).

The last example has proven to be of money returned to DeaDTerra:

These amounts looks like being returned as well:
55.7246187 BTC http://blockchain.info/address/14CQiJAiA5o8go8PWc27BjkNA4v2t7QFEt

The 55.72 BTC was mine
//DeaDTerra

As you see, Nefario supposedly returned near all BTC of users, but the last 1000 BTC which went to improper people.
So part of the people (~1/9) still got nothing, but they should get their money soon, when most of the 1000 BTC is paid back and Nefario send it again, with proper addresses this time.

I thought its pretty hard to guess how much was paid back because he used some kind of anonymizing chain system with the addresses to pay back. And it sounds a bit strange when really so much is paid back already and only 17% of the payments are noticed here. Seems a bit small. Even though there are many that didnt get payment yet. It doesnt sound to me like a small group. But of course its only a feeling because lack of numbers.

And it doesnt make much sense because of the script that did the double payment. I mean when nefario already had paid back 7762BTC and then is crating a script that is causing 1000BTC to go to users that already got money back... why should he build a script when he was at the end of the list already? It doesnt make sense to create a script when payments are nearly finished.

Care to explain where you have this numbers from? I mean even nefario didnt claim that he already paid back 90% of users money. Which would be a good thing to let go away accuses of he being a scammer regarding the users money.

This is the situation described to me by Nefario.
Right now about 50% of the double payments has been sent back.
The script for the payout is still broken and James is working to fix it, so that it doesn't send any more double spendings and so that it takes the double spendings into account.
Nefario, is suggesting that if the double spendings are not returned then your account info will not be included in the asset information/list until the payment is sent back.
He could not give me a ETA but it seems like once the script for the payment is fully function, the rest of the payments should follow shortly.

note:(I am not sure of the actual system of asset claim, if it will be a code system similar to the one Goat was given or if it will be a list of information)

Nefario, is suggesting that if the double spendings are not returned then your account info will not be included in the asset information/list until the payment is sent back.

Idea:  for those that refuse to return the double payment I think Nefario should change the payment address to one he controls and collect the dividends until he is paid back, then change the payment address with the asset issuer to the original address so that the remaining dividends go to the customer who refused to return their ill gotten gains.

Good idea, I will suggest that next time I talk to him.

There is no any anonymization, apart of the Bitcoin mechanism itself.
The chain is an effect of using a series of commands to perform the payments - one transaction per a payment, instead of one transaction for a group of the payments.

When you have a transaction identifier of a payment (like at the beginning of this thread) or a blockchain address (like above) of the payment or double payment,
you can quite easily trace at blockchain.info the chain back (where came the money from) or forth (where went the rest to).
Looking at the chain starting from the 1000 BTC you will see there is a row of smaller transactions, where the main quota is getting smaller and smaller, and each transaction forks a smaller amount into different address. When you look at these addresses, you will see that near all of them has received this smaller amount twice: the first time on 16th Oct (from one of the big chains, starting from 5000 or 3762 BTC) and the second time on 18th Oct (from the chain starting from 1000 BTC).
Many of the transactions were confirmed by people here, so I'm convinced I'd guessed it right.

Just because you recognize a chain of payment it does not mean every fork is a payment for GLBSE users. You are speculating over the expectation that all GLBSE users have being paid in every fork with no evidence whatsoever.

If you verify the taint analysis of few payments declared in this thread, you will realize that such payments does not come from a payment chain.

[RHA]

Just because you recognize a chain of payment it does not mean every fork is a payment for GLBSE users.

Near all of the reported payments was done in these chains. I looked at the chains, found a pattern and finally I presented my best guess.
I used phrases like "I'm sure" or "I'm convinced", to show I present my opinion about a very probable event.
To proof otherwise we would have to sum all unreturned BTC (what people are waiting for) and see how big is the total in comparison to ~9000 BTC.

You are speculating over the expectation that all GLBSE users have being paid in every fork with no evidence whatsoever.

Not all, but most of them. The last 1000 BTC didn't go to proper people, so they have got nothing and are still waiting.

If you verify the taint analysis of few payments declared in this thread, you will realize that such payments does not come from a payment chain.

Just a few (I found just the two of Psychotic Boy's payments). Most of the rest are from 3762 BTC chain.
For me, the timing of the chains confirms the returning of the money but it also shows another thing: it is not done fully automatic (like me or many others would do), but rather by a group of commands - many small scripts written by hand. As such it is quite slow and prone to errors.  It worries me. It is not a good sign for successful passing of the assets info to the issuers.

Augusto, you have much greater experience with Bitcoin - do you see here any different pattern?

[2GOOD]

About the double payments, are you returning the full second payment or you subtract the remaining 10% of your funds.

I've too received double payment  - it's a small amount ~2.10 BTC and I'm willing to return it, but there are a lot of uncertain things around the whole Nefario situation. It would be nice if I receive an email or something from GLBSE with instructions and bitcoin address for returns.

This is somewhat sickening to hear... That you received a double payment but did not receive any kind of communication from GLBSE asking for it back.  Ugh.

I guess check your spam folder, but if there's nothing in there then it would seem Nefario either isn't aware of all the double payments, or isn't actively pursuing them.  Not good either way.

[2GOOD]

Just checked that out... Nothing in the spam folder. I'll leave it that way for now and keep you posted if I receive something from Nefario.

[SebastianJu]

2GOOD... nefario claimed in his blog that he is through half of the list of double payments. I interpret it that he contacted half of the users yet. So i guess you will get a mail soon. If not that would be a bad sign indeed if it isnt in your spamfolder too.

[DutchBrat]

Since we did not get a confirmation of the email address we submitted to GLBSE as part of the shut down process it is not inconceivable that people made a mistake entering their email address and hence can not be contacted by Nefario for any double payments they might have received.... or by any Asset Issuer for that matter. I guess it was too much to ask to have a second field with a confirmation of the email we wanted to use....

From what email address should I expect to receive correspondence on this matter ?

I've yet to receive any confirmation of completing the account closure process (did this shortly after the shutdown of GLBSE was announced) and I've yet to receive any payments to the address I gave during that process.

I'm most concerned about ensuring my ownership of assets is correctly communicated to the asset issuers.

[bixcoin]

Dont you get it? You've been ripped off!
Its like waiting for the wallet inspector bringing the wallet back! I said this long ago. Nobody wanted to hear it. Nefario is playing the waiting game and you all play it with him til he is far away and your anger is forgotten to some degree. Cant believe how stupid many in this "avantgard community" are. All working together, right in the beginning, there may have been a chance to get this thing straight. Now that Nefario has made so many fuckups and probably already spent our money with good lawyers, I dont think its worth even be talking about it.

Well in any of those incidents, someone some place has benefited. This, I don't know. Seems to be harming everyone. Nefario has ruined both himself and us. And we don't know for what. I wonder if he knows...

[Bitcoin Oz]

There is no moral reason Nefario can't return shareholder info.

[guruvan]

I've written this off as a total loss. After this long It seems very unlikely anyone else will get anything by any other means other than (legal) force, and that seems unlikely to be able to get the desired results. I haven't the funds to mount a legal offensive against James, et al, so it's just a loss.

Nefario seems about as likely to pay as pirate. Of course, since I have to get money back through pirate, then then nefario, then brendio & goat........what are the odds of all that happening?  Laughable, I suspect

I'd still be happy to get something back from nefario or the issuers that says I will receive funds if ever there are any funds. It would restore my faith in humanity. XD

I guess it's not over until the CEO cries "theft!" (has he done it & I missed  it?)

"no moral reason" lol. I'm sure there's a lot of concern for that in and around GLBSE. As I'm sure that nefario and pirate (and the likes of usagi) are concerned with the harm they've caused people. Ah well. They've sewn the seeds of their future.

I did not go through with it because there was almost no interest but reading this thread, it seems there actually are some of you that would like to take action.

It seems very unlikely anyone else will get anything by any other means other than (legal) force, and that seems unlikely to be able to get the desired results.

I am now more than ever in favor of illegal force. That is the only plausible way to sort things out around here.

It is possible Nefario got "hit by a bus" as someone already took action. It is one explanation for his lack of communication.

There are reasons this is a plausible scenario.

If that were true, he better start communicating if he doesn't want to get "hit by a bus" again.

What reasons for that scenario do you know, that we don't?

I'm starting to regret that I sent him back the double payments he made in error :/

[Akka]

I'm starting to regret that I sent him back the double payments he made in error :/

Me too, I had the feeling this was a mistake the moment I send it. But as I'm like to think of myself as an hones person, I would do it again.

I'm absolutely sure by now, that nothing will come from Nefario. And the first Issuers start collect claims for their shares. As I suspect, that a lot of people will use this orotundity to claim shares they actually didn't have. There will soon be another damage that can't be undone.

I will hold Nefario accountable for that, too. (Not that I can actually do something.)

[BTCHero]

If he is scared about some government agency reguarding trading securities without a license then it makes sense he wouldn't ever send out the share info.

However, there is absolutely no reason to keep our BTC in the accounts hostage.  I am waiting on ~30 myself.  He obviously had some repayments on the extra coins, though he has yet to send any more out.  What good reason is there to keep these coins?  This is straight up theft.

Watching his youtube videos makes me sick.  He was a real badass until the first sign of trouble, typical internet tough guy.

Nefario obviously cannot be trusted in properly managing a project like GLBSE, why would anyone think he can  handle the funds properly.  He was probably skimming bitcoins from GLBSE and now he is short of bitcoins for the claims process.

I'm as sure of this as I was sure that Bitcoinica owners were behind the several thefts (as was later show pretty conclusively when zhoutong got caught with the LR monies)

I'm nearly certain that nefario has given out all the coins he had "available" to give out. There's no more money being given out because there is no more money. I'm shocked he hasn't staged a "theft" to cover up the loss (theft)

If it were not a crime in the US to advocate the use of physical force, I'd be all about it. It's shocking that I've not heard of anyone solving the pirate or glbse fiascoes with physical force.

I'm pretty fed up with being stolen from with no recourse whatsoever to recover anything. I'm pretty sure I'd kick him in the nuts if I saw him though. I'd be fine with the assault charge.

But, like I said.....he's only holding defaulted assets (and a couple BTC worth of SS shares) of mine, and I don't expect to be able to kick pirate in the nuts anytime soon, either.

Well, we are all pussies. And we all have better things to do. No one has lost their livelihood to these scams.

But effectively, legal threats are also threats of violence. And we haven't even begun submitting official complaints yet.

I'm pretty sure I'd kick him in the nuts if I saw him though. I'd be fine with the assault charge.

I think I'd have to hear his side of the story first. However, apparently it won't be possible if we don't go and ask him personally.

[DeaDTerra]

Progress has been made.

To all Gigaminers:

Late yesterday I received an asset holder list from GLBSE. Per the email received, the list may grow some more so it may not be the final list.

This is good news as it means step one is near completion. I will be working with counsel later today and possibly into next week to finalize the next steps and to clarify what has to be done and why.

Best regards,
gigavps

Seems like James has managed to complete some of the assets list at least

I fail to see your argument that legal threats are also threats of violence. If they were, I'd just threaten to shoot people. But, it turns out threatening to sue someone IS legal, and threatening to shoot them is NOT.

I also think you underestimate the amounts of money people had invested in the various scams. PLENTY of people have lost their livelihoods to these scams Seen any of the "long term offers" in the lending section? More than a few people were completely wiped out by these scams.

I'm sure his side of the story has no bearing on whether I'd like to kick him in the nuts. I'd kick him in the nuts for non-communication, not just non-payment!

Alas. I can't afford to travel to James, and kick him, and I can't afford a lawyer (to kick him?) .... So...I'll just hope James wants to repay / sent info....just like I'll hope pirate wasn't a thief, and that there's some money left for the bitcoinica liquidator to distribute. GLWT, huh?

Well, the fact that something is legal doesn't mean it's not violent. They do threaten by physical force, otherwise what's the imperative?

Yeah, but I'm sure many of us can afford to travel. Let's hope it never comes to any extremes. It seems he has started sharing the information.

[Mushoz]

Haven't been following the GLBSE news much lately, but I was wondering if someone could quickly get me up to date on a question I have:
Are there still people who haven't received their bitcoins back, despite not being an issuer themselves?
GLBSE still owes me bitcoins, and I still haven't received anything back, despite making my claim the day the page was launched...

[2GOOD]

Sure:

Some people got their BTC back.
Some people got more than their BTC back.
Some people still have not gotten their BTC back.
Some of the people that got more than their BTC back sent some of the extra back to GLBSE.
Some of the people that got more than their BTC back kept some of the extra BTC.
Some of the asset issuers got some of their asset holder information sent to them.
Some of the people that kept the extra BTC then sent some of the extra BTC back to GLBSE.
Some more of the asset holder information was then sent to some of the asset issuers.

So it appears that if you ever want to get your dividends you must:

Send any extra BTC you got back to GLBSE
Fill out the claim information on the web site
Then your information will be sent to the asset issuers

If you are waiting on BTC then you are waiting on the people who were sent extra BTC to send the overpayment back to GLBSE

I still have not received email from GLBSE where to send the excess coins, from the double payment... and my account is not in the list provided to gigavps.

By overpayment you mean take my 100% and send the excess 80%

[Jurek]

yay! He listened to my request!

I believe if you send back the overpayment your asset holder information will be sent to the asset issuers.  If it were me I would contact GLBSE directly and arrange to send back the overpayment.  Yes, keep what is yours and return what is not yours.

OK so I'll wait a little more for email from GLBSE.

Thanks

You might send him an email with the subject "I want to return the BTC overpayment" in order to get his attention and get him to read it

Here is his most recent posting on the issue:

I've gotten a LOT of emails in the last 24 hours from users who got a double payment and they have not returned it yet.

I will contact you all tomorrow with an individual payment address, and we can get you onto your issuers shareholders lists.

Please be patient, thank you.

Sebastian, I know about it very well, because it was me who wrote about the doublepayments here and in the e-mail to Nefario the day when they happend,
asked for the address to return, and was the first to use the above address to return the excess of the money.

As one can learn from the lecture of the thread, many people refused to use one address for all because of possible difficulties with differentiating who paid and who didn't.
They requested one address per person. Part of them got own addresses from Nefario by e-mail, but many got nothing. They need to contact him.

I placed here the citations from blog.glbse.com to let people know the good news.

[SebastianJu]

Ok, i thought the post i mentioned didnt contain the address and nefario put the address into this message only lately. Otherwise i didnt think it would be needed to create a blog post to tell that an address will be posted.

[BTCHero]

How does he know who paid him back or not considering he used a common address for everyone.  What if someone sent it in pieces or returned only 90%, he can't just go by the amount received.

Is this going to be a best guess scenario where people will end up having to prove they sent it?

I wish he would just start paying out with the btc he has received back, there is no reason to hold on to them.  Manually would be best since he seems to have some problems with scripts.

Keep the "stupid" for yourself.  Several thousands BTC have already been returned to community, so one has to be stupid to call it a rip off.

Firstly,  as far as I know, your "several thousands BTC" are get from the blockchain record where Nefario seemingly paid money back.  However, the money add up on the forum is much less: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=118354.msg1270908#msg1270908

And Nefario is playing the isolating strategy. He is intended to scam fewer large bitcoin savers. Again, no trading records, no proof for dispute.

Pirate40 has returned some of the money in the beginning. In the history, most of the Ponzi schemer with true identity will try return the money in the beginning.  Maybe it is a mix of emotional human nature and rational strategy to win the time to let angry victims calm down and accept the loss that will never be returned.

And I don't think we will lose anything to keep trying prepare for the worst scenario, except that Nefario will take revenge to someone and may accelerate the cash burning ratio of Nefario. But I don't care anymore, if he decided to play evil, then let's just send him to prison. when we not have been succeed, we will make sure that the constantly legal war will make sure his reputation destroyed every where and stay in the state of poverty for the rest of his life.

In a similar situation, but it's more like 100 BTC in assets.
Grand total of 3 asset owners out of 9 contacted me, only 1 has paid me something, 2 are still sorting out a method to get the assets into my hands. The others all seem to be in hiding, refusing to do what they should be doing.
I never kept much BTC on there, it was usually spent or sent back, but I've still not received anything from Nefario.

[Kluge]

Filed a claim within a week of GLBSE shutting down, received nothing until a shareholder complained to him. Didn't get BTC, only asset lists. Nef said I didn't file a claim. Gave him evidence not jiving with that idea. No response since I sent that response 2-3 weeks ago.

Oh, well. Guess I'll just be reasonable and not send out payments until Nef repays the full amount owed. 

[JWU42]

Still owed 20 BTC - no responses from nef to now over a half dozen e-mails.

[Trevor]

I filled in the form aaages ago. No idea what my assets were, I've kind of written them off so anything there would be a bonus. But my balance was 7 or 8 coins, which is a lot to me at the moment. Emailed Nef a few times, initially got a response saying it would be dealt with next day. It wasn't. Over a month later, nothing received and now my emails are being ignored. Anyone received or even heard anything in the last 2 or 3 weeks? That seems to be when things went silent again.

[cytokine]

Still owes me about 60 coins that I deposited. I have no idea why it takes so long to load up a wallet and hit "send". What a load of sh*t.

Yet I still hope all is going to be cleaned up. James had to find a job to earn for life, so he could be busy all the day. But no updates at all? Strange.

I'm still owed my BTC that were in my account obviously.

I got a email about some shares of NYAN I had, lol.  It is strange that he is doing anything at all.  Does it seem like you should just go full blown scammer or make things right?  I guess it is a lot easier to deal with the assets as they have basically no value to him, while the btc he has stolen has lots of value.

This really hurt the community.  We all knew we were going to lose our coins in the investment programs running around, but GLBSE seemed like a safe bet as they were making money with a decent business model.  The face of the company attended meetings and seemed reachable to the public, now he just gets to run with our funds without recourse?

This really hurt the community.  We all knew we were going to lose our coins in the investment programs running around, but GLBSE seemed like a safe bet as they were making money with a decent business model.  The face of the company attended meetings and seemed reachable to the public, now he just gets to run with our funds without recourse?

Hurt the community? I offered several times to put 100BCs in and gather some more from other victims to take criminal charges against James. First time months ago. Almost nobody of this "community" wanted to go through with it. I was even called an idiot because I said James wouldnt pay.
This didnt hurt the community. It shows and screams to everyone out there that its a community of wankers and idiots that dont deserve better than beeing stolen from.

What do you await? Even the victims of pirate wont collect money to sue him or follow his traces to "not throw good money after bad money". I dont understand this and i would handle it another way. Its probably easy to find him with proper private investigators. And if its true that he goes around with wrong id and similar its easy to send him to jail for the first part. Then about the btc the people shouldnt speak about btc but about investments in value of ... USD. Every police has to act then. Otherwise a stolen painting from Rembrandt wouldnt make the police to act either. Its the value that matters.

I cant say anything about the btc that are missing from glbse but i wonder how many asset issuers have the asset infos but dont give it out. So that nefario cant be blamed. But it looks like there are enough BTC still missing anyway.

I am still owed 70+ BC. This is defenetely not a small amount. Anyone disagrees?
RHA, can I call it a Ripoff then?

No new updates and part of the payments are still unfinished... Hm, you definitely has right to be angry as hell and to name the things.
Yet I still hope all is going to be cleaned up. James had to find a job to earn for life, so he could be busy all the day. But no updates at all? Strange.

Have you looked in the obituary section of the newspaper ? Im guessing someone took matters into their own hands and extracted their own form of justice.

I highly doubt. Think about pirate. How many thugs or even the mafia would see him as easy money? They only would need to find him and force out the money of him. Easier than thousand bank robberies. (Nowadays they only keep some thousand USD in a bank branch.) If its correct how pirate is living now i dont want to change lives with him.

I doubt they would be after money. More like a pound of flesh.

I don't want to throw good money after bad either.  Doesn't showing everyone we are wankers and idiots sound like it hurt us?

I only dont see why you guys handle your USD another way than your bitcoins. If it were USD that are stolen you would run after it and do everything but bitcoins? No one would matter. The police doesnt matter. Its all lost. What mindset of fatality. In fact the police only dont know what bitcoins are and what its all about. So dont speak about bitcoins. Only when they know that its USD that are lost. The form is secondary like it is with an expensive painting. Then you can tell them in what form you paid them. And im sure they will understand.

Ok, its the internet. I was paid many times with stolen paypal accounts without chance to get something back. But pirate and nefario are known in person. (When nefario really wont pay back the btc that doesnt belong to him.)

Whatever... i dont have to fight anymore because i sold pirate shares before it stopped, sold diablo (with luck) nearly without loss before it crashed too much, got the btc back from nefario and got the asset infos after some kind words, deeds and encouragement to nefario... but ok, its your guys thing how you handle it. I only say that i would fight.

[JWU42]

Just sent e-mail number 8 or 9 to nefario.  The last e-mail he responded to was in November when he advised BTC would be sent when GLBSE was "shutdown".

I just want my 20.xxxx BTC back!

[Indemnified]

So, for anyone reading this who has gotten a double payment, the return address is 1BgPRMk4uaJrohM1T9Cn4Hd9pHaEL6FH5j

It would be better to return the coins without me having to chase you for them.

No need to chase me Nefario. Since I have now received the missing dividends from my assets on GLBSE and can thus confirm that the asset holders have my correct information, I am now willing to return to you the overpayment. Please pm me with an individual bitcoin address to which to send the overpayment (less the 10% which you withheld).

[Koekiemonster]

So no contact at all?
It seemed like he made a fair of amount of payments, so why leave and risk people chasing him? I'm still owed a significant amount of bitcoin, never received anything.

[TiuraZ]

My guess would be that he borrowed money from GLBSE, exchanged it to fiat and now that BTC prices have rised, he doesn't have enough money to buy bitcoins to pay back.

[BTCHero]

If this is the reason he should come clean and ask if people would be willing to take their payment in the USD equivalent of when he shut down.  I know I would.  I would rather have something than nothing.

But he knows we won't do anything about it so we are all hosed.

[UberTaco]

I haven't been on in a while. Pretty much since the whole thing started with GLBSE getting shut down. Right before it got shut down I transfered some BTC to my GLBSE account. I've found the transaction number. I have not received this BTC back. I did file a claim while there was still a GLBSE site available for claims. How can I get this back?

[ColdHardMetal]

A post that might be of relevance to some of you.

If we could keep discussion over there that would be appreciated.

[Garr255]

I had over 100 coins with him at the time of shutdown... and those are suddenly becoming more important to me (Both because they're worth $75 each and I need 15k for college )

[Lucidize]

I had under 10 stored in my account, I would like to see them returned.

[intel-core-i7]

I had 0.7 btc in glbse. If btc goes to 100 usd - its still 70 usd to pay back...

But I want btc, not usd...

[BR0KK]

At least I got some coins and shares out of this debacle ...

Two shares are missing .... Bfl.rig and m BFLS... Around 10 shares or less that I'm unable to claim since I don't have a list (my fault;(). The owner of these contracts isn't helping much (just pointing me towards searching his thread for info) I don't know how to prove that they belong to me....?

Is there any share owner that recieved the "list" and tell me what info glbse provided (what info is transfered - mail  BTC address etc)

it's mail address, BTC address and number of shares; for users that didn't claim shares where GLBSE was still online, asset owners didn't know the BTC address, just mail and number of shares

Ask particular asset operator, he should have received the list from Nefario

Just quoting his last post.

Happy Birthday James (Nefario) McCarthy, CEO of GLBSE the most (in)famous Bitcoin stock/bond exchange!

I was about to jump all over your post and report you for necroposting but then the report would probably just go to you, right?

Anyway my theories: 

sold the account
finally finished up the next version of the code and will be starting a new exchange any day now
just could not stay away, Bitcoin is addicting

Welcome back.  You owe me money.
