Preliminary statement:
Quote
One of the thieves has contacted us; they are very sorry and have already apologized:
  • The damage is nowhere near as suspected; it looks like the data on the website was faked (less than 8 BTC was stolen; our Google Form does confirm this story so far as < 8 BTC was reported).
  • "Andrew Penn" has paid all the stolen BTC to the escrow address (https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/5be2f935373fc19789199622a4792668c20a05f6705d7663df3a387851b43ccb) with his own money ("Richard" ran away with his half).
  • It is not exactly known who Richard is at this time, and it looks like he suckered in this young individual into an "easy money scheme".

As it currently stands, investors should expect a full refund (minus TX fees).

This situation can be solved as I had previously anticipated. People tend to make mistakes. Please do not file any reports, and remain patient.


For those that have invested at any time (people who invested after 8 AM GMT, Friday the 3rd of February as well), please respond only in following format:

Amount:
TX ID (link to a blockchain explorer):
Miscellaneous:
Repayment address (if different):

Staked message below:

You are also required to post a signed message from the same address to prove that you own it. Use the following format for the message:

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I sign a message?
Read this tutorial: How to sign a message?!.

2. I've transferred my money from an exchange, online wallet, et. al. What do I do?
Use the proper format and mention this in the 'Miscellaneous' field.

3. I still am not able to sign a message. What do I do?
Use the proper format and mention this in the 'miscellaneous field'.

4. How much time do I have to claim my investment?
The claiming process is ending on the 15th of February. The thread will be locked once this has been finalized. In case that you have not claimed money in time, then this is your own fault. We are not going to wait forever for people to make a single post.


Reimbursement of requests that fall under FAQ questions 2 and 3 will take a longer time to process. Any attempt at cheating this will result in negative ratings from several Default Trust members. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. As always, please remain patient.

The first batch used an underestimate of ~20 cents for fees. All other TXs will attempt to deduct ~50 cents (which is still generally only half of what needs to be paid).
Paid back: 14.52445627 BTC ;; 100% (of claimed)
TX fees total paid: ~0.0164

You need to somehow prove that you own it. We can refund to any address that you want afterwards, but only after you've provided adequate proof.

i already changed the thread, and informed the potencial investors of my local thread..
Thank you for your help. Unfortunately, translators and people who were participating in other bounties will receive no compensation.

Greedy much? I also translated into my language and don't want anything for the translation - you took a risk with providing your time for this project which turned to be a scam.

Yeah part of it was escrowed, but you'd be paid in ASC (if this wasn't a scam) not in BTC for your work. You can ask scammer to make a blockchain just for you to pay you your 1500 ASC he'll have plenty of time to develop something in jail.

And who are you? Im investor, i can paid for ASC with money or with work, i paid my ASCS with work. My paid was also escrowed and someone needs to pay for my work.

Greedy much? I also translated into my language and don't want anything for the translation - you took a risk with providing your time for this project which turned to be a scam.

Greedy? I wasted a lot of hours with the translation and the videos for the video contest. The video contest was canceled so im fuck, but i was already paid for my translation and i had 1500 ASC so i want my money cause ALL the money in the ASC accounts was escrowed.

Yeah part of it was escrowed, but you'd be paid in ASC (if this wasn't a scam) not in BTC for your work. You can ask scammer to make a blockchain just for you to pay you your 1500 ASC he'll have plenty of time to develop something in jail.

You also be paid in ASC for you investment Smiley So is the same thing, the escrows are refunding you for the ASC you had.
