You're copying that wrong. The message is above the transaction, not below it. This is the actual transaction.

That 1HELPME address (and the hundreds like it) just spam out dust to high value wallets hoping someone will send them some coin.

Havelock HAS RESPONSIBILITY in this for the simple fact that they sold us an scam, in good faith nor not.

So if you go to a convenience store and buy a can of beer, you give your money to the teller, then walking out to your car you open the can and the beer is putrid, do you comeback to the store and ask for your money back or go to the Heineken factory and ask them for a refund?

I gave my money to Havelock, Havelock sold me a putrid beer, i think that in good faith they made the same mistake than everybody else: To believe in the word of some Chinese schoolboys.

Now, want it or not Havelock is deep into this, a pity because i see that they strive for a good reputation.

HAVELOCK: SEE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO EMBOLDEN YOUR REPUTATION, Pay what was given to you accordingly to contract terms:

Risk control

1. Before IPO closes, ASICMiner has the right to buy back at the price of IPO price * 100.5%.

2. During the first 45 days after IPO closes, ASICMiner has the right to buy back at the price of (IPO price - total payouts) * 120%. The notification period is 3 days.

3. If the delay of payment happens, all unpaid payments will be accounted separately on daily basis and increase by 0.02% per day(flat rate based on the initial unpaid payment amount, no compound rate) after three days.

DO THIS AND ACHIEVE A STATURE AS AN HONORABLE AND HONEST PLAYER IN THE BITCOIN COMMUNITY.

And, being so few left in the Bitocin world, you have more to gain than to lose.

Havelock is not a mark for any recovery. This will just make the things more complicated unnecessarily. This is my private opinion. Apart from that I do not see them as much involved in it. What for drag them into this? In what way can we benefit?

Why insist on royal plural?  That's like, so affected, man.  Just say "him," like a normal human being.
Re. "recovery":  Hahahahaha

But would you listen?

Thank-you for confirming that your are not able to withdraw your BTC from Amhash website.

Amhash team can we have an update!!

I like how they paid out for 2 months, lots to time to move out of offices, set up new bank accounts (offshore ofcourse), liquidate hard assets,  etc etc.

the shutdown for 2 weeks during Chinese holydays was a nice touch too. That way they did'nt not have to pay anything and gain 2 weeks.

Very professional.

Wouldn't have worked with IRL money tho.  But good 'nuf for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin:  Like scamming with training wheels.^TM

3 years almost exactly to the day. What are the odds of that?

A good scam is well thought out in advance, with specific milestones and a defined end date.

This friedcat person (or persons) are good,  very good.

You guys here are the small fry of it,  there must people on the ground there jumping off buildings now.....

scammers are amateurs job but this seem to be a professional job. Well planned and thought out.
not so surprising when you consider bitcoin's popularity and volatility.

wouldn't surprise me if this person(s) involved with pulling something similar using fiat money. (stocks, bonds, etc.)

[finbad]

I agree

and the best chance to catch them is on their next endeavour.

it is most likely they will do it again,  problem is figuring out when where and when....

[NotLambchop]

...

Possible, when he grows up.
This thing, otoh, is no more artful than Labcoin, NeoBee, or any other Bitcoin "investment" where rubes trip over themselves & each other in a rush to send their [sorta] anon coin to any Anon promising to make them rich.  This likely didn't even start out as a scam, but once the the marks' general derpiness became apparent, it would have taken a saint to resist turning this hilarity into one.

So my rating: C+

Points off for
 1. poor BTC/time invested ratio
 2. shit story arc, and
 3. dragging, predictable & utterly unsatisfying finale <==tho grantedly, all BTC securities suffer from this, so perhaps a lacking inherent to BTC genre.

Guys, don't forget that when FC came out with the first ASICs (the first to mine bitcoin at all) his company quickly became worth over $100 million.  Now unless he lost it all (which in this world, isn't unheard of) it doesn't make sense that he would try to run off with $1mil worth of coin.

Totally agree... something is wrong here...
