the last Vircurex quarterly report was released by KUMALA, owner of vircurex whose identity is still unknown to many

I had a look at the numbers and they don't add up!!

in the May 2013 report he wrote:

The total losses of the security breach are
1454 BTC
225,263 TRC
23,400 LTC


and in the august report:

FTC double spend attack causing a loss of 150,000 FTC


but now this is what he writes:

BTC:
Number accounts with frozen balances 352
Total frozen amount 1,748.50 BTC
FTC
Number accounts with frozen balances 42
Total frozen amount 152,106.24 FTC
LTC
Number accounts with frozen balances 2625
Total frozen amount 125,883.05 LTC
TRC
Number accounts with frozen balances 77
Total frozen amount 127,835.98 TRC


so BTC were 1454 now are 1748 = 294 more
LTC were 23400 now are 125883 =  102483 more, total in btc at these prices 3184!
FTC more or less the same for equivalent 30 BTC
TRC were 225263 now are only 127835, so almost half of it, for an equivalent of about 38 btc

Total BTC missing: 1748+3184+30+38 = 5000 BTC

This is a scam, there's no further doubt about it! somehow he made disappear 2800 more BTC in the last months without saying anything.
I believe that at this stage and with no chance to recover any of those frozen funds, this guy needs to be identified.
Any help from the community to trace and report this guy to the authorities is top priority now. Let's find him.

where are the people that have been scammed by kumala? 125k missing litecoins is a huge number! a total of 5000 missing BTC is crazy for such small exchange
where are you guys?
do you realize that at an average of 25 btc volume per day, and 0.2% fee on each leg of the trade, it's going to take 138 years to refund those money?
or even more since the scammer keeps paying interest on deposits out of trading fees:
Quote
Earn interest on BTC, LTC and PPC account balances
We now pay interest on BTC, LTC, PPC, NVC and WDC account balances, they are paid multiple times every day. Check out the help for details.

STOP USING VIRCUREX.
kumala has to be reported to the police and put in jail for fraud

I noticed the discrepancy too. I'm convinced all the numbers are made up, he's just optimizing the scam potential. The company doesn't exist. Have you seen the pump and dumps on their cryptostocks site? What a joke, of the 5 or 6 I checked, 1 was verifiably fake, the rest were very suspicious/probably fake, and none with legitimate business registrations or anything that would indicate they were real.

The other thing is, a company or individual can't just withhold funds/property because they think it is the best move. They either negotiate or they declare bankruptcy, they can't say "woops, can't give you back your property, maybe you can get it in a year or never". If anyone could do what they are doing, then every company on earth would pull this stunt when they run out of money.

and you guys didn't see this coming after the 2013 report he gave?

lol

unless you didn't do your due diligence you shouldn't have sent funds to that exchange.

Hopefully those who lost funds will learn from this mistake.

I didn't know the exchange was operating on fractional reserve, otherwise I wouldn't have kept a single dime on it. Why all you fucking "I know it all" didn't open a thread and kept it on top of this section all the fucking time to inform the people and prevent this huge scam??

The difference is irrelevant. Anyone who knew of the Vircurex report in 2013 showing substantial losses should not have put a penny into their trading account with VIRCUREX. Period.

Not much of a useless lesson if I, for example, refused to use that exchange once the hack of 2013 happened and they were in the negative. LESSON THAT WAS USEFUL lol...

1. Just because you failed to do your research on said hacked company is not my fault. You are an idiot for not doing so.

2. The reason I never kept a thread on top of this section is because I have more important things to do in my life like taking care of my own family etc.

3. LOL Even if I kept a thread at the top of this subforum people would have gotten scammed anyway. It isn't my job to protect and prevent EVERYONE from getting scammed.

4. It is YOUR responsibility to make sure you do not get scammed (if you do in fact not like people taking your money).  Grin

5. Never did I say "I know it all". I thought it was just humorous that people still get caught by the mistake of NOT DOING THEIR DUE DILIGENCE BEFORE INVESTING AND TRADING WITH A 3RD PARTY.

HARSH TRUTH: Anytime you send funds, coins, money to a 3rd party you accept the responsibility and risk that goes along with doing that. I.e. that you could lose EVERYTHING.


As I said before, hopefully this event will serve a valuable lesson for the future.  Grin

You miss the point that I have in the past called out Kumala when their exchange was hacked in 2013. No one responded and no one kept up the discussion.

The fact that I have called many scams out before they fell (BTCST, MTGOX, VIRCUREX) is USEFUL enough.

You forget one important fact, I do not have to do what you say. Hence why I will continue to post my "useless" comments as you say. Deal with it!. lol  Tongue


HARSH TRUTH: Anytime you send funds, coins, money to a 3rd party you accept the responsibility and risk that goes along with doing that. I.e. that you could lose EVERYTHING.

^ The above bolded comment is very very USEFUL. You should take it and run with it in the future.  Cheesy

Talking to you is like talking to a wall.

If I called out kumala don't you think I tried to warn people by doing just that?

My comments here have value and if you see no value in them then that is your problem and I suggest you cry more. Lol Grin Grin Grin
