did Mullick tell you that ?
i find it odd you would have found that out defaced.
thanks for the info though..

it may be hard for them to prove anything on Cryptsy i think.
and the other guy / service i never heard of..

edit:
in case some guys don't know the OP here has been good buddies with mods on Cryptsy going back at least mid-last year.
i was on a pool defaced ran for example that had me and Mullick on it for example.
and yeah he did a great job running the pool Wink

edit2:
By the way.. you misspelled "Truth" in your topic title, it's actually spelled F U D

Yes

Apparently the lawsuit is real, but are the claims? That is the question.

Not that I have experienced. Most likely just fishing for clients


Playing devils advocate here, I did notice this as well. On the other hand, your employer (crypsty) has screwed me over quite a few times in the past, so I can also see his side.


What ever happens good luck.

They are both in Florida?

reading...

Yes, page 14 gives the amount a customer who says his account was emptied of bitcoins wants in damages from Cryptsy. It says

The present-day amount which we know is subject to the Florida Civil Theft statute is
$60,000.00.  Treble damages therefore equal $180,000.00.  For now, we are making this demand only
upon you; but at such time as we determine what was done with my client’s property, additional
demands may be made.

It seems legit. Apparently you can read the entire filed complaint here, but I have not had a chance to read it yet.

What looks most legit is the "sample road"

I agree the road name sounds like a made up name, but here is the google map link to it.

Doesnt look legit imho

http://www.silverlaw.com/securities-lawyers/2014/10/silver-law-group-files-lawsuits-against-cryptocurrency-exchanges-bitcoin-savings-trust-and-cryptsy/

Silver Law Group has filed two lawsuits, one against Texas-based Bitcoin Savings & Trust (operated by Trendon Shavers) and another against Florida-based Cryptsy (operated by Paul Vernon).  According to the Complaints, investors have been victimized by deceptive and misleading tactics, such as claims of profits of 7% weekly interest or of a safe and reliable platform to trade cryptocurrencies free from excessive fees and commissions.  While Mr. Shavers raised more than 700,000 Bitcoin in principal investments from investors, those Bitcoins have disappeared.  Likewise, investors with Cryptsy, which CoinDesk has touted as “the largest crypto-to-crypto exchange,” have seen their accounts emptied and Bitcoin simply disappear.  On behalf of its clients, Silver Law Group has pursued nearly $12 million in restitution from these online operators.
