Silly it is much simpler. You send him BTC, he sends you carded and hacked MoneyPak codes. When you use them and GreenDot catches you they shutdown your accounts, file a Police report, and sue you personally in civil court. Remember there is no possible account you can fund with a GreenDot MoneyPak that doesn't have ALL your personal information (verified per KYC). i.e. name, address, phone number, SSN #, etc.

What is it with the recent influx of really really bad and obviously completely untalented wanna-be scammers anyway? Do they need Xmas money or something?

Short version: Pirate stole $5M from complete idiots. Long version: I mean community handed a guy named Pirate $5M in irreversible currency in what was from day 0 the most poorly hidden ponzi scheme ever. That kind of theft is going to have consequences. Every two-bit hustler dreams about raking in the big money from complete morons who keep throwing more and more cash at the scam. I am sure there are threads in every forum related to HYIP, cracking, identity theft, and scamming about how bitcointalk is a target rich environment for separating idiots from their funds. The fact that NOTHING has happened to Pirate just reinforces ... hey it is 0% risk. Even if you get busted just walk away and count your money (er coins). I mean in the criminal world there aren't many seven figures, no risk, no work "opportunities". With everything to gain and absolutely nothing to lose if anything I would expect the scammer level to increase substantially.

I know that. I've been calling out scams ever since, oh, since Brucie Baby and his Adventures in Thai Boys' Buttocks.
What's interesting is that there are so very many really crappy attempts at scamming for the last three days or so.

Can you blame them when people like usagi come back for a second bite of the cherry?

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

Must be slow learners then - all of these scams and failures have been dismissed as "teething problems" since MyBitcoin.

This is about to change. Watch PatrickHarnett go down in flames. I know that. I've been calling out scams ever since, oh, since Brucie Baby and his Adventures in Thai Boys' Buttocks.

Remarkably enough, your Ignore's not lit up either. You must be doing something right.
