Make sure you add MT.Gox to this list, I have a few BTC locked away in a Gox account from like 2 years ago because I wouldn't verify my account.

If he is referring to bitcoinscammers.com he's an idiot! If someone posts something that's negative towards a company it stays on there. The site is ran for free and community driven, companies can rebuttal and so can consumers. Not once has anything ever been removed and not once has any money been made off the site.   I encourage him to make another so I don't need to run it or listen to his scammer like mentality about a site that's true purposes is to exposes companies and USERS for what they are in hopes of building awareness and people saving money. I do not profit one cent at all. Funny thing is its mostly scammers who don't like the site.. GO FIGURE.

DON'T GET SCAMMED, CHECK FIRST = Bitcoinscammers.com

Don't you find it somewhat ironic that you have been given a negative trust rating by the others in this forum while you accuse others of scamming?

Why do you list satoshidice as a potential scam based on hypothetical technicalities on the sites operation while at the same time there was baldly obvious insider trading on their stock prior to the sale of the site?

It's not really ironic as much as it is proof that I am right since a person who isn't affiliated with the casinos (e.g. a shill) wouldn't bother to give negative rep to someone he deems a liar. Satoshidice is a long time known scam I will move it under "Scam" I simply haven't bothered to update it.

Well enough, but again, I think that the possibility of fraud within the sites operations doesn't suddenly make it so (ie brute forcing a solution with better house edge prior to the payout). Until you have solid evidence for it, that is nothing but spreading FUD. That's probably one of the reason you've got a mis-trust rating from somebody.
However there is pretty solid evidence for insider trading with the recent sale of the site, all conveniently layed out here

Furthermore regarding people like MP and TF they are sure douches but that doesn't make them scammers.

First of all quoting Buttcoin is a bit silly since the guys have made MANY predictions and none of them ever happened, just renders them as guys-with-shitty-attitudes in my eyes, sure need to have strong motivations to upkeep all that negativity for so long without anything negative happening (*which is exclusive to the Bitcoin economy and not because of the nature of human beings acting like retarded turds).

As for your other point, please see the following screencap (as in original post).


You don't need to wait until a rapist is balls deep in someones asshole until you convict him, if a Bitcoin business acts in a suspicious manner then I am an expert on raising that suspicion and pointing out their skeletons publicly, I personally stop using the services of every service which is remotely suspicious.

I respect Killhamster more than 99% of the people on this board and what he provided is magnitudes more solid than what you came up with.

Just because the site has a humorous touch doesn't change the facts it presents. You on the other hand are just pointing fingers.

Satoshidice - IS based on irrefutable mathematics that behave in an honest manner under normal conditions, sometimes bets are delayed by 24 hours giving the house the window to bruteforce a hash that will be the most beneficial, the house or anyone else that receives access to the secret list ahead of time can submit selective bets and get a significantly lower house edge.

UPDATE 31/7/13: SatoshiDice is officially a scam ladies and gentlemen! Proof:

Even though he’s cashing out a made man, in a final “Fuck You” he’s decided to force all this shareholders (yes, people bought shares in this sham) to sell at a price he sees fit. No, you can’t hold long term and no you can’t continue to profit under the new ownership. Too bad, read the fine print.

Of course, it wouldn’t be bitcoin without a little bit scamming in the form of some insider trading



Someone bought a bunch of shares just yesterday before the announcement.

Good luck Satoshi Dice and I hope you fucking burn into the ground.

Almost anyone associated with them speaks in an intellectually appalling language and is full of unapologetic loose cannons, except Voorhees himself.



Was there any terms in the contract for a buyout?

Thanks for this! With the nature of bitcoins there's gotta be a community-wide watch for scams.
You got a lot of nerve Jason, you're a scammer yourself: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=265739

It will be a terrible day if it ever came to pass that we began to punish people for crimes we think they'll do.

I concerns me that tmbp feels that he's an 'expert at raising suspicion against people' who may or may not be guilty just because he suspects it.

The powers of judge, jury and executioner are separate for a good reason.


Whilst some (maybe even all) of the people you list are scammers, with no proof other than "I just sense that they're doing something wrong", I doubt many can rely on that list to be 100% accurate.

If this post was useful, interesting or entertaining, then you've misunderstood.

If one can not confer upon another a right which he does not himself first possess, by what means does the state derive the right to engage in behaviors from which the public is prohibited?

Good job with list updates.  Sometimes you can see sites pop up that are just a clone of another site and can be scams as well.
