So I guess this is the right time to say "I told you so".
What business could ever be profitable by buying at a 10% surplus?
If it sounds too good to be true, it is.
Sorry, but no " sorry for your loss " from my side. This was the most obvious scam I've seen in quite some time, here.
.edit:
It wasn't only advertised on marketwatch. Though those were paid articles by the owner, just the same as you can buy articles on Yahoo finance.
I contacted some of the other sites this scumbag had articles on and demanded deleting of the articles, which one of them actually did.
Guess it want enough. Greed is just too strong.
.edit2: their "chat agent" is the scammer himself.
UPDATE: The payment wasn't from some business, but from a personal PayPal account. When I asked the chat agent why the payment was reversed, he said it was an anti-spam measure from Paypal and not him. He then repaid from a DIFFERENT Paypal account and the funds are still in MY Paypal account, but I'm not touching them. I went back and asked him who got my bitcoins, the first person or the second share person. His/her response made no sense. He responded that Miner's Center got the coins as both people were investors. HUH? How does that work? "Investors" pay differently but share "profits" equally?
I rechecked the recipient address from a blockexplorer and BTC is still pouring into it and being taken out just as fast.
The chat agent/scammer kept trying to reassure me by claiming this is a real business in Delaware. Delaware is the state where anybody with a P.O. Box can incorporate. It was less than reassuring. I told him I was going to wait before selling him anymore because I was uncomfortable with the risk of doing business with an unknown entity. He said the special promotion was going to end on Monday. Yeah, right. There's always some reason not to do due diligence. I can't absolutely say for certain this is a scam, but it's sketchy as hell and I wouldn't recommend selling them any more coins than you are prepared to write off. The other risk is you might get your Paypal account shut down.
