This Plan is simplicity itself. It is very simple to understand and very simple to explain to others so that they will quickly and easily understand it too.

So simple.

Sounds like the thing we had here 20 years ago, but with letters. You get a list from Usenet with 5 names. Drop the first one, add your name as number five. Send the other guys 1 dollar. Now, send the new list including yourself to a LOT of people.


Profit

I tried this once, received 2 dollars  (sent 0, knew it was a scam  )

This site appears on the wiki and another web site I saw about how to shop with bitcoins. 

Merlin's Magic BitCoins is a private members gifting club.

It consists of a co-operative of philanthropic like-minded people whose prime focus is on helping to empower other members by the giving and receiving of gifts to one another.

Membership of Merlin's Magic BitCoins is strictly by personal invitation of an existing member only.

This is why I don't send newbies to the wiki

They probably included themselfs,
There should be some kind of control

2 weeks in launched 1-6-13 and members have doubled and tripled their initial gifting investment.
It is easy to call a thing a scam when it is not understood. I have spent a lot of time checking this out and it is what it says it is. There are a lot of people making good tax free income from gifting programmes and there will be from this one. The big difference with this offer is that it uses bitcoins as it's currency and that means it is safer and quicker than sending cash. Please checkout http:mymerlinsmagicbitcoins.com and make a decision for yourself. Other peoples opinions are usually not based on knowledge, but on guesswork. Skype: johnmac101 All the best   

The guys from miningunited.com used to post similar things here. Be careful people.

Best designed scam page I've seen.
Still scam.

Man Nigeria is getting way better at the scams. I think someone might have even learned poser for this one.

[Burdy]

Ghana come to mind?

Step 3 - Open a BitCoin account at MtGox.com and copy your BitCoin address and API Keys from there into your Merlin back-office.

It is interesting they need your API key.

Is this our guy?

Surprise, surprise.

This is the kind of thing that, if it really took off in the MLM get rich quick community, could really drive up BTC prices.  Imagine thousands of get-rich-quickers opening GOX accounts just so they can buy their first Bitcoin(s) so they can participate!

This is an MLM plan without a product so an obvious scam of course since there is no source of income.  Now if they were selling BTC at a profit that might even make some sense - but no, all the BTC are being purchased through GOX.

Wow but well done!  Movies and everything, even a clip from "Pay it Forward" (wonder it they got permission).

It isn´t a scamp. I am registered too and it works well. You even could skype or chat with these guys if you don´t believe it is serious or you think it is illegal.
You guys just should visit this site and make your own opinion. If you want to join too I would be appreciate if you use my reflink here

I can imagine how that works:
"But look they are all making money right now!"

Tell me one thing: Where exactly is the revenue created?
