Hhampuz embezzling signature campaign funds from BestMixer

[Quickseller]

What happened:: Hhampuz appears to have stolen ~0.54BTC (~$4,300 at the time) from the BestMixer campaign after he ended it.

Amount Scammed: 0.54BTC

Proof of Payment: c5c716e779653795aaa03c950199cfcc73fef855b290153f421886d3d572fae1

Additional Notes:

On May 22, 2019, it appears the BestMixer domain was seized by European government authorities. At the time Hhampuz was running their signature campaign. Once Hhampuz learned of the domain seizure, he announced the signature campaign was ending immidiately, and shortly thereafter he paid out what was due to each participant, presumably at the time. (The early cutoff for posts, and early payment appears to have violated the terms of the campaign, but that is not the topic of contention).

The txid for the payment to participants was b27574cee6516ce29ff84dca1fad3e04e799cabcb801a102360e5e437c7147d9, which has a change address of bc1q9dzph9s96gsawqzcyj63j37e8nx8438pne296c, which is also the address the payment came from, and where all previous payments for this campaign came from. About 30 minutes later, the balance of what remained from the signature campaign was sent to 3GNadBucAV7kU3V5M5BrusFesQ4wfRsrtv via txid c5c716e779653795aaa03c950199cfcc73fef855b290153f421886d3d572fae1.

After the above transaction, the money was sent via txid f1d0b755a53da5d17312a9df7304d3f08ecd264b5704d80e708e74dfae9bd388 to 1JnE9A72rBNbNRCN6FSdrRqcG1msTxki8x, which I believe may belong to ChipMixer.

Later that day, Hhampuz posted that he never communicated with BestMixer outside of the forum:

I've never had any contact with BestMixer outside of this forum, the account that messaged me never even gave me a name at the bottom of their message. I once asked if we could talk outside of bitcointalk since it would be easier and due to them not being online here that much. They declined and said this will be the only form of communication.

As of when the signature campaign ended, the bestmixer account that created the ANN thread referenced in the OP of the signature campaign was last active three days before the campaign ended.

The outputs to the transaction that 1JnE9A72rBNbNRCN6FSdrRqcG1msTxki8x spent are:
1M1o8TUAUunxD2rS4tnWFe8T3FSwQp8633
18FjF4nhU3m6MELjrpGyw175Hj1cMG8jXf

17j1WYxgetC9JEmzNLCVF7iX63wEWvmHSi
1Lwu7dAUdidJtcsaYjwMNTJVK5dWAQTK64
All of which are 0.064BTC, and according to the tool, http://chipstatdethbuwk.onion/ (tor link) BestMixer posted, all are "chips" belonging to ChipMixer and/or its customers.

Additionally, BestMixer was critical of ChipMixer, and as such is unlikely to use their service.

I asked Hhampuz in his campaign thread about why the bitcoin was moved when he could not have possibly received instructions on how to return the excess money, but have not received a response after a day.

Based on the above, I believe that Hhampuz has stolen the excess money from the BestMixer campaign for his own personal use.

So is this your response for getting kicked out of the Livecoin campaign? This being a pathethic attempt by a scamming monkey to get revenge out of spite defeats the whole thread to begin with.

So is this your response for getting kicked out of the Livecoin campaign, you little piece of scamming shit?

I saw something I believed to be not right, asked about it, received no response. I am calling out bad behavior as I see it. It doesn't matter who you are, including if you are someone doing business with me, if I am aware of bad behavior, I will call you out.

I suspect your response is a good indication of the validity of my accusation.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

QS, you’re a real piece of shit. How the mighty have fallen hey. You used to be one of the most respected people on the forum. You’ve turned into a scheming, revenge seeking snake.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

It is NONE of your business, especially when you are a SCAMMER with a compromised sense of judgement. Was this thead made by someone with a credibly inquiry (say marlboroza), then I would gladly roll with it. However, I'm stopping this thread right here and right now.

I disagree. He's a big piece of shit.

Clearly Bestmixer trusted HH to escrow the campaign funds so unless they say he scammed them - there's no scam.

Ahh, it is none of my business if Hhampuz is stealing from others. Well considering that Hhampuz is holding money on behalf of others, and is guaranteeing payment to a lot of others, I think the question of if Hhampuz is stealing from others is something that many people would be interested in, and would want to know about prior to affiliating with him.

I don't think you have any authority to stop this thread.

These people are either in jail, or are hiding from the government.

By your logic, it is okay to steal from someone in jail, or someone who is dead because they will never be able to complain

Why is everyone quoting the un-polished reply?

A million possible reasons, and he goes with the most pathetic one.

Everyone who was owed was paid. It's none of your business.

I'll counter any ratings that come out of this spiteful thread and hereby advise Hhampuz to not even indulge you by responding at all. See: I can, and I just did. Need anything else mr. escrow scammer?

They are not owed anything. This is what YOU THINK, which is irrelevant and anyone who isn't a degenerate like teeGUMES doesn't give a fuck what you think.

That was explained in the OP.

There were funds left over after the campaign was ended early, and the money was clearly not returned to BestMixer.

LOL say marlboroza haha  ... another one of your pet bitches like LFC bitch coward here.

I mean lauda you are an observable liar and scammer yourself so that is a bit rich coming from you.

Stopping this thread? how are you intending on stopping this thread exactly? what other bitches do you have in your pocket?

hhampuz refuses to be transparent regarding his rules and the upholding of those rules. I view him as suspect. I view you as a scammer since you are one. LFC and moronbozo are just your bitches.

The evidence must stand on its own merits regardless of what attacks you are launching on the person presenting the observable instances. HHampuz may as yet be able to supply a sensible response as to this particular issue anyway. So best not to make it look worse by becoming involved lauda. Scammers sticking up for others can make them look more shady even if it is not the case.

And yet another thread filled with nothing but assumptions. Nobody has been arrested so they are perfectly capable of contacting Hhampuz.

This proves your judgement ability too. Very beautiful Kitty.


Anyway, I would love to hear from Hhampuz. I know he is trying very hard to be the gang member because of the business he runs here but he is a decent gentleman.

I'm stopping this thread right here and right now.

Seems like you have taken over the forum and others need your permission before they act. Like LFC removed Bill because you said so.

It is NONE of your business

You don't tell others what to do. It was more appropriate if  it was coming from Hhampuz. Anyone can do anything which is not YOUR business here.

Lauda, Stop! Mind your own business. This is too much you are going. This DT system is not going for long, soon there will be a change.

You don't know they have not been arrested. This has not been announced one way or another.

Further, the time frame that Hhampuz spent the money is not constant with what one would expect. Assuming the BestMixer operators have not been arrested, recovering ~$4,300 in advertising expenses is probably low on their list of priorities immidiately after the government shut down their business.

They always mention arrests. The owners are not a priority, they are after the users. Stop trying, your opinions are meaningless.

Nope. Try again.
