Master-P SCAMMER. I lost complete faith in this forum now.

[grtthegreat]

I think that master-P's account never changed ownership.

His password was changed four times:
2016-01-05 11:37:58
2015-12-17 13:55:10
2015-05-25 15:26:43
2014-10-19 04:07:48
No resets. All of the above changes were done by IPs which geolocate to the same general area. Also, his very first post and his very last post geolocate to the same general area. And for the last several months he's been using mainly the same IP.

Based on IP evidence, these users are possible (not certain) alts of master-p:
REAL-master-p
jeffersonairplane
kooke
MrBig
sifter
iflewtoday32
antonioserrano72
newflesh
AccTraderALT

Use this list as a starting point to see if you can find other links between them. Do not use my list as absolute proof. It is very common for two users to use the same IP at one point or another; 364 users have used the same IP as master-p, and the vast majority of them are not the same person.

Not true

Thanks theymos, this was the most awaited thing.

Holy fuck guys, we were all part of a super good planned scam by master-P.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

He is not a minor, he is in his early 30s still living with his parents.

just don't do any vigilante crap, that can only end badly

Tomorrow's headline:
Selfless Canadian Caring For Elderly Parents Butchered By Bitcoiners

Is this true?  It is good if he's not a minor--for a lot of reasons.  How was it discovered that he still lives with his parents? 

I don't know, somehow his reaction to all of this seems childish.  Then again, it's all lies anyway.

Thanks for stepping theymos, would you say this , as described by QS is what happened? Not questioning him or something but confirmation from you would be great
Edit: By which I am hinting to the fact that he was trying to pull other scams from his alts, a large exit scam at once.

Seems plausible. You'd have to ask BadBear about the details of the recovery.

I hadn't known about QuickSeller's list of possible alts previously, so my list is independent evidence.

I haven't read much of this thread and I don't know many details behind this case, so I'm not going to try to draw any defninitive conclusions from this data.

Master-P scammed a large amount back in 2014 as well...

i would agree, i think i posted it here or in the other thread somewhere, but im not going to go looking for it. assuming newflesh is his alt, its definite he was amassing funds. the newflesh account claimed to be selling a DT account, which was likely the master-p account, and the other green trust account were some of the green trust account in theymos's list.

shorthand version for theymos and anyone else that doesnt want to sift through the trolling

master-p goes missing for a few days
i contact him on steam because i had him on there from a previous deal
he claims he sold the account back in august, however, there are noticeable holes in his claim and detective work leads to info that points to an exit scam (ie, the account was not sold) that includes, reusing of addresses after august that were used before august, and recently as well, leading to the belief that the same master-p was still in control of the account.
REAL-master-p appears, claims hack after tecshare shows up revealing he has m-p's dox
repays 1.something btc to some of the victims
QS's work finds some of his probable alts
lots of trolling
here we are

probably missed a few things, but the key events are there.

i didnt want to make another post.

You also can't cross out the possibility that newflesh etc was just bluffing and could've scammed as master-p was the(only one, the seller was allowing) escrow for that deal as well.

two individual people coming to the same conclusion that newflesh was master-p's possible / probable alts leads me to believe that its likely the case though.

Only thing is BB is quite unresponsive

I'm guessing LawtheLaw was you and the PMs regarding the dox were from you

lots of trolling

Something over the last 5 pages was just trolling, nearly 70% of the posts in this thread was unneeded.

Nope it wasn't me. He messaged me as well

Holy crap, sifter from coinbooster was master-p 

[mexxer-2]

Holy crap, sifter from coinbooster was master-p 

No wonder he was (first) given a pos trust by master-p. He only removed it when reminded about it via PM and even had the courtesy to add a negative after the ponzi collapsed

[Spoetnik]

The original master-p account logged in today, and changed his e-mail address right now. Changing e-mail addresses on bitcointalk can only be done by verification of old address, master-p's address was the same "[Suspicious link removed]" just last week, but he change now because people are threatening him. He was never hacked.

He is not a minor, he is in his early 30s still living with his parents. Master-P, return my coins in 24 hours or I will take legal action against you. On top of that, I plan on buying ad spaces in your town to publicly humiliate you and your family.

Cheers

Nice.. i say in that voice

niiiiice OP LOL

Billboard him !

Hell you could make a sandwich board and pay some kids to walk around his town LOL
Maybe a sign spinner ?

Use this list as a starting point to see if you can find other links between them. Do not use my list as absolute proof. It is very common for two users to use the same IP at one point or another; 364 users have used the same IP as master-p, and the vast majority of them are not the same person.

Thank you theymos, I greatly appreciate this information.

One more thing... Can you provide the general location of Master-P's address? Can you verify that the IP address is in Ontario, Canada? Specifically around the town of Aurora and Newmarket?

[Duomo]

Theymos just quoted this truth. 
i trust Theymos with all money and my possessions.
Thank You Theymos!

he wont, given his position of responsibility. it'd be pretty damn irresponsible for an admin to start disclosing the geographical locale of the forum users.

if you can proof the link he's in even more trouble if the DOX is correct. running a ponzi/scam adds a whole new level to this case

scratch that, it might have been IronMarvel that was the DT account he was selling, who seems to be on badbear's trust list.
