I've Spent the last 2-3 years paying back clients working 2 jobs and running a security business and to date ive paid back 95% of outstanding AUD accounts to my clients and the other 5% being in my opinion Scam artists.... the bank still retains my funds to-date.
Are you saying you have been paying back WBX clients? Because I paid them back too, using the BTC from the WBX cold wallet. I posted in this thread regularly about my progress towards refunding your clients. Does this mean that some lucky WBX clients got paid back twice?
From day 1 the bitcoin was always secured by Chris (dooglus) both online and offline for security reasons and i can honestly say and chris will back this up.....i had no control over where it was stored (i only knew the address it was stored under) even to the point of not having access to withdraw the BTC, (as you are all aware of) once i had all AUD seized from me by the bank i became increasingly worried for the BTC that Chris would run off with the funds, so i requested the BTC back on several occasion even to the point of threatening him.
I don't remember you threatening me at all. You suggested that I should take care of the cold wallet since you didn't have a way of keeping it safe, and I agreed to. When you shut down the exchange and vanished I took it upon myself to make sure your clients were paid back. You agreed that I should do that too. I'm surprised that you now say that you have also been paying them back. I'm pretty sure that you had access to the online coins at all times. The hot wallet was on the website. That was an account you signed up for and maintained control of, even to the point of locking me out of it eventually.
A few weeks ago i reached out to Chris to help with the exchange again and had no reply? also apologizing to him with no reply?
I'm sorry. That was a little rude of me. I'm not interested in working with you again. At the time I was trying my best to ensure a fair refund to the clients you left high and dry I attempted to contact you many times and got no reply. You answered none of my enquiries about specific uncredited deposits or unpaid withdrawals.
Then, to see you raise your head again after more than a year of silence, calling me "Doug", and asking me to help you get the exchange back up and running was pretty unbelievable. I decided to go with the old advice that if you don't have anything nice to say then say nothing at all.
I just received an email from a stranger asking me about you:
I hate to impose but we've never met, I found you on one of the bitcoin forums. I was wondering if you could give me a summary of where Worldbitcoinexchange aka WBX stands at the moment? Has Andre paid all of his customers and has the owner of this site been a part of any fraud?
The reason I ask is because I was about to contact him in relation to a business proposal, but I don't want to deal with an individual that has burnt either his customers or previous business associates, seeing as though you seem genuine and have worked with andre in the past, what is your recommendation?
The stress and pressure of cleaning up the mess after you went to ground was something I'd choose never to repeat. I don't really know how to reply as I've no idea whether you were part of any fraud or not. I've seen no evidence that your bank accounts were frozen. It could be that the banks ripped you off, or that you ripped your clients off.
