Thank you Dawie!

Guys.  I have been defrauded of $1000 of my hard earned money by Larry Strawson.  The money may be gone,  but our dignity is not.  This is not over yet.  If you want to do something join us and let us not let this person get away with this blatant fraud.  Did we ask for anything unreasonable? No.  We only wanted our share of the units that we paid for.

Next step will be to summarize how much money Larry Strawson collected in total and cheated the community out of.

Anyone have this information?

Next,  we need some photos identifying the individual that defrauded us (Larry Strawson). 

Once this information is ready we can go ahead and publish it on a site with everyone's comments about how they were also cheated.  Hopefully we can get some local Winnipeg news media to cover this story.  I also have some relatives in Winnipeg I may be able to convince them to give him a visit but we need his mailing address.  Maybe from one of his domains?


This will serve as a warning for anyone who decides to do business with Larry in the future, and as an embarrassment to him.

Dawie,  I'm not convinced law firm is the way to go.  We don't even have a written signed contract.  How would you expect a forum post to be used as a basis for suing someone?   They will gladly take your money and get nowhere fast.

I think we can get the lawyers to guide us on which existing contractual regulations would be best applicable to the case.  'Smart' contracts/online agreements like these GBs are going to set a precedence for future conflict resolution and disputes, so its best for the lawyers to get used to them if they want to stay relevant in cyber space.   A cryptographically signed contract/agreement where the individuals can prove they are the owners of the public keys can be used to get a list of stakeholders or 'plaintiffs'.

I for one would be prepared to sell my BTC GB debt owed to me to the interested lawyers if that is what is required to get justice served.

Alternative suggestions on how to proceed will be welcomed.

This whole thread is a written contract...

I wanted to let you guys now Larry is still alive and on the internet.  He is just choosing to ignore us.

Here is a video card he sold 3 days ago.

I contacted him on ebay.  Feel free to do the same.  We need to let him know that this is important to us and we will not accept him holding our funds hostage

[abdullahadam]

Total money received by soniq, over 171 BTC.   Also there is still 4 BTC in his wallet

https://blockchain.info/address/15QU4HBzV7wKiQ9z8jgUi4yA1Xng5S7xV6

So I guess the total that was sent to him was $29,995 for the 5 cointerra units?  Or am I mistaken?  Maybe the first ones were more expensive at $10k each?  Someone please help

Actually I shouldn't have said over $30k.. Well i guess if you factor USD->CAD its over $30k Canadian... so its fair

[crashoveride54902]

well put me down 2.4btc lost to him....wish i refunded it all when i had the chance

[abdullahadam]

Actually Larry Strawson refused my request to refund. 

Hi

I already purchased the hardware.  Refunds in OP are for non delivery of Terraminer IV or before hardware is purchased.

You can sell the shares pretty easily I think.

Cheers

Whenever we refer to Soniq, we should use his real name so this thread comes up high on google for anyone searching for him.  We don't want anyone else to be defrauded by Larry.

Heya folks, I have been involved in another group buy that Larry Soniq organized and he scammed us too. If there is legal action being taken, I sure would like to be included. Or if anyone lives in Alberta, I'll chip in to throw him a beatdown. Just sayin'...

Well did anyone try calling him yet?

How much BTC we talking about? Did he pull the same stunt as he did here?
