If people think I am only refunding small orders they are completely wrong.
I have so far refunded all my refunds 10k and over including a 26k order.
Today I refunded orders ranging from $60-$6000
and the BTC I had is now gone.
This is taking a little longer than I thought because people are emailing me about orders that were not added by dave to the original spread sheet.
The good news is I have made a deal with someone who has a large amount of Bitoins and we have a payment system were I can buy them everyday.
So instead of doing refunds on just fridays, I will be doing small amount of refunds every single day.
If you did not get one today I am sorry, I am out of Bitcoin and yes it does help to email me in a polite way.
Like anyone else on the earth I respond much better to polite understanding people than I do to beligerant angry people who yell and threaten me.
Like I said from the beginning, EVERY SINGLE PERSON WILL BE REPAID.
I am not a scammer, if I was a scammer I could of easily taken the 1.5 + million dollars and go some place where no one could find me and live like a king
however that is not my style. For one I am a Christian, it does not mean I think I am better than anyone else I am a sinner just like everyone else in the world, and for two I believe in some sort of karma, and this refunding process is something that I must resolve or I will never be able to move on with my life.
If I could pay you all back today , I would but this is the way it has to work, I am lucky I was able to make this arrangement - I should be able to refund $3k worth of refunds every single day this week, and make a bigger run on this friday from my other coin purchasing connection.
Today I sent out about $15K worth of refunds.
I hope everyone has a wonderful easter weekend, You will not see me log back into this account until next friday and I will give you an update of where we are at that time, Please remember a polite email to
btcfpga@gmail.com will get you much farther than blowing up the forum thread, making threats and acting like a child.
I am manning up on this situation and making it right, I need a little more time to complete it, but we are almost there.
I guarantee you, this scammer tag will be gone before BFL ships a single ASIC.
If I was not in debt I would place a bet on it - but all I can do right now is make the guarantee
BFL has been holding onto millions of pre-order monies for almost a year, they continue to make excuses and have still not proven that they have any working prototype what so ever. On the website they show BFL FPGA singles with the cases off as the product picture. The Proof they give is photo-shopped incomplete boards. I am sorry but I do not see a BFL ASIC shipping any time soon if ever. I am pointing this out because I personally believe they are having the same problems that I had. Sonny is no more technologically skilled than I am , and no matter how much money you throw at a project if you dont have the right people and the right connections you will never get anywhere. The group of people who can design an asic that can mine Bitcoins is extremely small and most of them have their own projects. Josh has become more and more bizzarre and out of touch with reality. The house of cards at BFL is about to fall and again the only reason I am pointing this out is because at least I had the balls to admit that my project failed and I am making reparations to get everyone their money back. I could easily lie and deceive just like they are doing and string everyone along for months and months and continue to collect money but that is the difference between a legit guy like myself and you know who. Don't take my word for it, just read the forums, look past the lies and see whats really going on. I am the one with the scammer tag but I guarantee you if BFL fails at this project not a single one of you will see a refund from them outside of a court order.
Thats my two cents for the week. Thank you to everyone for being so incredibly patient. We are very close to closing out all these refunds and like I said they will be coming in on a daily basis now, which I hope helps you all.
As always contact me at
btcfpga@gmail.com and you are guaranteed a response within 24 hours. All other email addresses that were used for BTCFPGA - you will get no response - you must email the gmail account. I am doing this as a way to keep record of all Refund related email and not have it mixed in with other things.
Thank you and have a good night - It hurt me badly to receive this scammer tag from people I consider my brothers but I realize why It happened and I dont blame them. Anything I said negative to anyone about it, please accept my apology.
Tom
