Do you guys think he is the likely "hacker" that tried to steal all the Vericoin in the Mintpal wallet?
Beings that he's dumb enough to not cover his tail here and beings that he got completely besmirched by the VRC rollback, I'd say so.

The guy isn't very smart and he's gonna get himself and/or his family hurt by some crazy internet fuckers. I won't feel sorry for him, and I also won't feel sorry for anyone who goes to jail for making threats/following through with them.

I kind of hope some crazy internet fuckers get to him..

Yep, many people with 0 balance at their wallet or pocket (bank) .... People with guns whose life is fucked by this guy Alex Green (crazy internet fuckers) they maybe will try to find him and ... who knows

Because this is exactly what happened to Mark Karpeles.  Oh, wait..
But Karpeles is in Japan. Oh, wait..

Now, seriously, there's a big difference. Karpeles probably stole a lot more, and he has a BODYGUARD.

Moolah tweets:


"Withdrawals of available coins are still being processed. Actual total of missing MintPal coins at this stage appears to be at least  1,000 BTC less than expected (hot wallet refills). We are continuing to refund and investigate."


 Roll Eyes


K, question... If Moolah, or Alex backed out of Mintpal or didn't acquire it... why are the Mintpal tweets coming from Moolah's account?
ryan/alex did acquire mintpal through torihiki ltd.

1000btc less than expected? translation: "I wanna get away with stealing 1k btc if possible. let's see how you react to the news."

After a long investigation about the owner of Mt Gox it was reported that he and his mother participated in a scam while they were still in France.  That is to say that not all mother's are innocent, or unaware of the sins of their sons. .


If his mother raised him right in the first place others would not need to discipline him now.


I read the whole Reuters interview and that's not what was said.  Post a link and stop making shit up.

Anyone with any foot in the investigative process on this, you can find Moolah's twitter archives from this site.. http://snapbird.org/  -  It's decent. He's been very open with Withdrawl claims on twitter so it gives a timeline of claimed processing dates.

I did not see anywhere to talk about the missing money lost in failed attempts to withdrawal after realizing the version 2.
Before 11 days, I had to account 69DRK and 23 million KARM, tried to pass them, but never got a confirmation email.
Funds disappeared into nothingness.
I saw no mention twitter if steps are taken to resolve such cases.
I'm interested in are there any other people with a similar problem?
Sorry for my English.I use google translator. Smiley

How do you know Ryan doesn't?   And what good will 1 bodyguard do against 1000's of angry lawless underworld characters ITG's and their dozens of sockpuppet accounts?  This guy will walk away with your money, like Karpeles has done, like Tomas Jiřikovský did,  like virtually everyone who has ever left the back door open for thieves to steal delightfully "non-refundable"  bitcoin (or who stole it themselves).   This is the way the unregulated anacap cookie crumbles.

They are withdrawing defunct alts for the most part it seems. That said, I still don't have my effing karma.

Too much TV.  You think Alex would trust anyone else to protect him?  The guy thinks he shits rainbows, i'd be willing to bet everything I own, he thinks he can do more damage than any bodyguard.

And if you are looking for someone who would you ask first? Someone's mother right?

Here we go ..

RYAN GENTLE'S MOTHER INFO:



Suzanna Gentle
156 Rothesay Gardens
Crownhill, Plymouth, Devon
PL5 3TB.

Why the fuck are the mods not deleting this post?

ninjaskip shame on you, that is a real asshole thing to do and you have no right to post that information, some bullshit childish vigilantee plan against the mother? Are you fucking kidding me? I should bend you over my knee and spank you.

I hope you directed a similar outburst towards the thief Alex Green / Ryan Gentle as well?


I don't think you are fully aware of how much damage has been done.
Moolah.io has ruined lives. Hurt the community. If shit like this keeps happening. The crypto-community will only shrink.
An example has to made of him. It absolutely must. Otherwise other low life hacker/scammer will only continue this shit.
And why not. The risk reward ratio is there to make it a viable way of making money.

This.

x2. I'm tired of the people focusing their efforts on the people targeting his family.  Any of these fools even consider, 100s, 1000s, of people are literally fucked? Did you people miss the part where he stole from philanthropy movement in Dogecoin? Maybe the part where he stole peoples savings. No? Okay, well maybe the part where he started a charity for mental health, one week after a dogecoin community member kills himself, AND THEN STEELS THE MONEY.  Years of scamming, he could have stopped... Opportunities to talk to the suicide people over this situation, unanswered. Heartless, and careless. Give his family what they deserve.
Wow. That is quite the history of scamming. I would officially label him a grifter at this point. Especially since he didn't learn his lesson after the first name change.

Been watching/protesting Moolah since day one.  the scamming is nuts, but once you cross into charity, creating fundraisers and stealing them... I think that puts you into another category. At that point your no better than a rapist.
Honestly he done raped the crypto community

(thanks to everyone who provided info)


INFO:

If you have missing funds from the recent Mintpal / Moolah debacle, please report it here.  And if you want to, say how many are missing.  Then if you have any luck getting missing coins back, please share too.

The goal of this thread is to provide a place where people can share info on the Mintpal situation openly and without censorship or filtering so we can build an accurate picture of what's really happening.

If we can get enough information and people together, we can get a criminal investigation started to see what really happened and maybe recoup funds.

Please repost this thread, first we need information as to what the picture is on how many coins have gone missing.

NOTE: Coins need to be 'left on an exchange' in orders so you can buy/sell coins or there wouldn't be any liquidity, and for users with high trade volume this can be a lot, there is no blame in this.  Even people who take precautions loose coins when exchanges go bad, implying all users are careless when they have money stolen doesn't help anybody.

REPORTING GUIDELINES:

Update: I am not updating the figures right now as too hard to match any returned funds to previous reports that they were missing, but please keep reporting so the missing funds are documented in the thread and the information is on record.  

Some alts have been returned but BTC still missing, and many people still have zero balances, can't withdraw or can't login, and as usual support tickets are being completely ignored by Moolah and they won't provide any actual details on the real situation.

Once we know whether Green is going to return the missing BTC, I will start generating the report on that so we can do a final tally of what is missing.

Thanks

I will report that I am missing a small amount of funds, about 0.1 BTC
I think a few CRYPT and TES that I never sold, maybe 300 of CRYPT and 5k TES

Can't be sure of the exact numbers, except the BTC is pretty accurate

I wasn't too worried about it, but I figured that I would report it in this thread
