Looking for Hashocean Investors who lost money

[Ukcryptominer]

Dear all investors that lost money with hash ocean,

We lost a lot of our heard earned money when Hashocean disappeared. At the time our investment was not worth much but I'm sure combined amount of money they ran away with is now few billions atleast!

At the time I'm sure some people even put their whole life savings into Hashocean, I'm very sorry for you.

I'm hoping to find people who lost money so we can explore some ways of possibly finding people who executed this scam using authorities as it is very simple the fact that money we lost is worth billions, I'm sure it would attract attention of authorities.

Googling some main wallets where all the BTC ended up at, it looks like they operated several websites that scammed people.

Are you here?

Collecting some information so I have everything on here until we figure out which authority to go to for this case

I found one of the address here, somehow linked to Iran

Yeah, im one of those members too who did really believe that cloud mining is really for long term and on those days on where im still just a noob then i did really believe for long term profits.

I havent tend to make out some in depth research if they are actually mining on behind or do actual mining on which i did spend thousands of dollars on trying out to making my hashpower
to be big and made out passive income on day to day profits until the day comes that they do vanished.

Is there some hope? No one had intended to look after  that and for sure that most people had been scammed by this had already moved on.

This happened 5 years ago. If the people who wanted to get refunded then did not manage to succeed, then I doubt you will, especially after that very long time. The trail must have gone a little cold now and most people have probably already moved on

There is a Facebook page that seemed to provide updates but then the person behind it also decided to advertise another potential scam

[Slow death]

don't even remind me of this disgust, I saw people selling motorcycles and other goods to buy bitcoin and invest in this site, at that time their chat was full of Brazilians and Russians, I doubt they will find these scammers. there's something I learned:

A person can harm a hundred people and think that he will never pay for the harm he is causing, but one day that person will pay for all the harm he has caused

those scammers will one day pay for all the harm they've done

[swogerino]

That happened in 2015 or 2016 I don't remember correctly and people who lost money at that time in Hashocean which if they had done due diligence they would have known that most probably behind them was the same team as Hashprofit of 2014 and should have stayed away,they tried to fight for their lost Bitcoins but they were unsuccessful back then and that means now chances to be again unsuccessful are even higher,much higher.

[The Cryptovator]

The first time hears about Hashocean,  I am not familiar with this scam case as well. Although I had lost a small amount during the revenue share season but never invested in any cloud mining. Once I realize 99% of investing site is just Ponzi scheme, I just ignore all kind of investing sites. The chances of recovering your funds seem quite impossible since it happened a long time ago and cryptocurrency is irreversible. The only way is to identify the scammer and arrest by legal authority. But it also doesn't guarantee that you will get back your funds and this step is also too costly. In these five years scammer become established with scammed funds and it wouldn't easy to force him back all the funds since he would probably spend a lot.

Quick recommendation: post on Reddit r/Bitcoin and r/Cryptocurrency; I could almost guarantee you'd find a handful of people there if you make a detailed-enough post to push your post to the top. Best of luck.

People is now moving on their dark past on that kind of investment so maybe you cannot collect those past scam investors anymore since many like this happened but all of them try to scam them again or just want to collect their information's so you cannot expect anything here if you are legitimate and if you are a scam victim to you better to leave those past and start to live your life today then forget what you encounter then learn with it.

I get why you came here and try your best to get back those lost bitcoins as it will be worth thousands of $ already. But chances of you finding these thieves is nearly zero. Many did try it before but end up with the same results, they gave up.

[LTU_btc]

This scam happened back in 2016. Don't you think that's too late to do something? There was many attempts in past to catch these scammers without successful results. Now after 5 years chances to do it is even more not realistic. It's likely that scammers spent or cashed out these BTC long time ago.
I remember that Hash Ocean was most popular cloud mining back then and when they made exit scam, amount of money that they got was huge. Now it's few times bigger. It was very sad to see so many people falling into this sxam without listening to all warnings.

At the moment ponzi site's scammers ran away, some petitions were signed asking for the FBI, Interpol and ethical hackers' help, but since there aren't recent updates, I guess it resulted in nothing. Not a surprise at all, because Hashocean wasn't a regulated business operating legitly. It wasn't a company that for some reason went bankrupt. It was a scam scheme aiming to steal investors' funds since the beginning. When that is the case, we can't expect it will be easy to track the thieves, although I think if there were real interest and effort from intelligence services it would be possible.

Only God knows where these scammers and the stolen money is right now. Usually, things end really bad for this kind of people...

FBI,Ethical hackers or Interpol can't really do much when we know it is almost impossible to recover lost funds.In the case that just a couple of months ago was from some Israeli police to be able to raid the wallets of 26 or 27 criminals that were all arrested they had physical access to these criminal wallets and computers and mobile phones.It is difficult in the case of Hashocean where we don't know a damn thing from which country they were as a beginning (although many of us assume Russia).

To make a long story short I think it is impossible to do anything against the scammers of Hashocean based on the above facts.

"Usually it ends really bad for this kind of people" unfortunately this is true only in Hollywood movies as in real life,thieves as Prime Ministers or extremely corrupted persons are running some of the world governments,not many thank God but some they are.

Due to anonymity then this is one of the main reason on why it do end up useless on finding out these scammers because it would really be just too time consuming and using up resources on something which cant really be tracked which ends up for them to give up and those scams would be burried and keeps been piled because thats where scammers do really take advantage on that anonymity.

Just like what i said earlier im one of those investors because i do believe that they did actually mine and cant be denied that im still bit newbie on those days

And on the time they had scammed out then those chances of retrieving is 0% chance and i didnt really expect for some recovery or something like that.

I forgot about this pyramid scam a long time ago. Even then, the stolen amount was huge, so after such large increases in the BTC price, it must be a fortune. However, it is hard for me to imagine that we would be able to find people responsible for it. Do you really believe it's possible to get that money back?

We have tons of scams on this market and talking alone with Scam ICOs then how many projects had able to be traced up with those scam devs?
Only a few and still lots of them hadnt been traced or been caught and jailed.This was a huge scam before because lots had invested or put up with this cloud mining site and ran away and for sure the coins that they had accumulate had already been sold part by part.

This is why people should never listen on HashOcean claims or any other promises to recover their money taken by those scammers since most provably those guys have bad intention and try to scam again those hopeful investors. And its better to move on from the past since for sure those scammers already enjoying the money of their investors and its hard for them to get traced knowing many years has past already and none of the owner has been put in jail for what they do to their investors.

If this one sparks up once again then it would really be used on possible scamming attempts once again specially they do know that there are still who do look and hope for some recovery of these funds.

We know that it cant be possible to re-open this case so people stop on digging something like this because it would never had the chance.

People should moved on and bury these things into memory and stop on stressing out yourself into this.

There was someone looking to recover their money weeks ago (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5365550.0). I'm sure you can find other people as well cause even the lunch money back then is worth something today. It's the reason why every time bitcoin reaches an ATH, there would be an increase of number of ppl seeking to recover their lost/neglected bitcoins.

I don't think you have zero chance since technologies are improving each day. But In general, it's hard to track someone who knows how to conceal their footprints.

This was already used for scamming before and many scammers use this and now this came back again trying again to fish those people which still seeking justice on the crime they experience before. Maybe as many stated and this is always advice better for people to avoid any of this since the money lost from HashOcean will never be recover so we better move on and think forward this is a learning experience from the past which we can learn for.
