I have seen multiple threads where this guy is trying to sell his domain and gift cards and such, he is a scammer straight up.

His name is Matthew Vacanti and here is his picture

He works at the Walmart Tire and Lube Express in East Syracuse NY tel: (315) 434-9873


heres what happened.


I PM'd him and said that I need a Godaddy gift card for $10, he gives me the amount and the a BTC address, he says that as soon as he receives the coins he will send me the card. I told him I needed this card right away. He said he would send it as soon as the coins confirm and then of course he disappeared.

Well unlucky for this scammer we live locally to eachother (like 30 mins away) I found his blog and found out who he is and where he works.

So I called his work and spoke to him, he told me some bullshit about how he didnt really have the gift card but he was buying it from some other site
and that site was taking too long. He said he would either send me the card or the coins when he gets back from work.

Then when he gets home he says he cannot get ahold of the person who he supposedly is buying this giftcard from and that he for some reason does not have my coins anymore.

This does not sound very good from a person who was operating a Bitcoin Site that Sold Gift Cards (thebitcardstore.com)

So now he says if I go to his work tomarrow to ask him for my money he is going to have me arrested.

I told him that is fine, if he cannot get the gift card or the coins tonight I will simply stop by his work tomarrow and he can give me cash and this ugly situation will be behind us.

He replies by saying that if I come to his work he will have me arrested.

It appears that he is refusing to send my coins back. I will keep this thread updated as to what happens after I stop by his work tomorrow.
*************
edit: after much pressure from myself and the bitcoin community he paid me back my coins. If your interested in a story of betrayal, walmart, furries, and possibly multiple personalities than please go ahead and read this thread. If such things do not interest you maybe you should move on.

Here is his side of the conversation. Sorry I do not have my side as it is not saved my default. But you get the idea of what happened here.

I know what you mean actually.
I'm waiting for the coins to confirm, and when they do I'll send the code.

please. If you do not have that card tonight. Just send me the coins tonight. I am sorry if I was wrong about you but I hope you can understand I felt like you were trying to rip me off. I really do not want this to get any uglier so lets handle this like gentlemen and do the right thing. Thank you. I will expect coins or card tonight.

well that's going to be a problem, see.. I don't have $10 cards so I ordered a code through a site that said I'd have the code by this evening and I don't. I 'd refund you the coins but I don't have them anymore. All I can ask is to sit tight and let this site process. Rest assured though I'm trying every way to get ahold of the owner of the site to work this out.

First guess, he's buying the card from spend bitcoins The transaction is taking forever (18h when I bought a Godaddy card from there) and he has no idea how to handle having neither bitcoin nor gift code when there's a customer complaint.

You're lovely for pointing out your views.

I don't think I would want my PR rep calling people tards. And I definitely would want them competent in high school grammar.

That's just me, though. I am sure your CEO wants you to call people archaic and offensive terms while exhibiting a poor grasp of the english language all the time.

I fixed it for you, I hope me responding to you, the spelling police, fills the loneliness you have.

I type quickly to convey thoughts and ideas.

Spelling mistakes are of little concern to me when typing with brevity.

I have a strong command of the english language when I choose to take the time to spell it out to the spelling police.

So please..

Get off your high horse. lighten up.

Maybe instead of pointing out trivial follies of others, you could be useful to the community.

This guy is turning out to be one of the most entertaining people on these forums.

His site was hilariously pathetic, but it doesn't stop there! Not only did he not have prices in BTC, not only did he charge more for cards than they were actually worth, not only did he spend a whole half an hour making his site, not only did he blame the Bitcoin community for him being pathetic, the whole time he was merely acting as trying to be an intermediary between the buyer and retailer!

A PR rep should be more careful how they speak and type. Their judgement reflects upon the entities they represent.

That's not likely to happen.  A brief scan of RandyFolds' post history reveals a surfeit of profanity and not much else.  You'd be well advised to use the Ignore button on him too.

Hey OP.  If you're going to include a picture of him, at least include a nicer one.  Posting that picture the way you did is just inconsiderate.  Try this one instead:

If you look at his blog, you can find a picture of when they first met.

Touching really.
