Topic: Bitcoin Ponzi Shut Down - page 2. (Read 3736 times)

Pretty good way to collapse a ponzi, original. He fucked up tho, so that's a thing. What now?

Feds? There are no feds!
Is this so hard to understand?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13583846

absolutely true... if a company say " we make cloud mining" show proofs!
the vast majority of cloud mining site are only a ponzi "masked" by mining company and not much more...
ore mine I remember try to defend their business with a "different investments" only to mask their lack of real business inside!

and even, why you ask "peanuts" from users and pay "strong interest" when you can simply asking a bank loan?
Is more convenient!

Ore Mine - the same company that had signature campaign on bitcointalk was a ponzi? That was unexpected for me :/ They were active for a long time.
What will happen with all money they grabbed, feds are gonna give it back to people?
 

I agree...but people often does not understand cristal clear things...people nowadays want not read...they want 100% in 24 hours and of course then are scammed.

That site was an obvious scam, everyone who has invested in that site should have known better.
But yeah, it is sad to see another ponzi scheme going into scam mode.
Mayby someone makes the effort to find this ponzi owner and dox him, then report him to the authority.
But I doubt many people invested in this shit.

You forgot one point (probably among others):

The activity made by the site/company to earn money must be completely crystal clear. It must not be hard to explain.

I said you it already several times:
You follow the advice from wrong people.

Invest where it is free or where the possible investment is so low that it is to low for the webmaster to go away...

Invest only where the webmaster is over 20 years on the net...and has so far never scammed...

Do not believe in too big profit.(prefer real profit even if it is very low...)

I should have worded that better on my end, I was saying, It's not hard for the officials to out think us, that is all they do, to make it look like a scam to be able to take everything with no eyes on them, its what they do people, just like sending the first man to the moon. its classic redirection. keep the eyes on the admin while they crack him and get the coins, people when your life is threatened with a jail cell you will almost most certainly agree to anything to keep your freedom including giving away your funds and keeping your mouth shut. its not hard to believe it was a scam knowing how people operate, on the other hand being an american its not hard for me to believe my government did this either. so its just about upto a coin flip on my end, the "officials" are people too just with a better system of sucking the funds from the people they have "power" over. we should use our heads and trust what we know. it very well could be a scam on either side.

I can't believe people even consider the seizure is real. Of course it's just a lame attempt of the scammer to gain some time:

Don't put it past the U.S Government, it was seized just to be the governments way of keeping everyone's money, everyone just literally got robbed by the US government and is blaming the site Admin, the proof was the payout, i have used ore-mine.org for almost a year now, had over my investment back, that was the proof they was able to do as they claimed, "Mining" could be in many forms, creating games, javascript mining (if you don't know what this is i can show you) plus many more options other then "Mining companies" with hardware that cost's more in electric costs then they make, we all know mining is almost useless now, that is why all these companies are trying to "sell out" the equipment they "purchased". Sorry for all those who believe in a legit system, that is why BTC is so popular in the first place our system is and has been broken, look at the reasons Occupy Wall Street Started, We had the "Right" to renew our federal government, that worked really well right? they have the ability to do as they please because we give it to them. No other reasons then that. To any "Officials" reading this, you can argue all day long but the facts still stay the facts, The United States Government is based on nothing except for greed of what you can spend nothing more, nothing less. we are a product of Capitalism. 

In that context I really wonder how Scrypt.cc is still functional.

well I see the same facts...
too strange!

Let's see the differences.
LibertyReserve  & Ore-mine.
Image: Exact same reason for seizing. Exact same name.
I would say it was a very big coincidence if it wasn't for the fact that they added the 45% discount & the new years mine. Luring people in, scamming & claiming to be seized. The funny thing is they didn't even bother changing the image name. Bodog & a few other sites I checked with similar images/seize messages didn't have the "Seized5_HR.png" name.

Yeah. I also thought this was real until I saw the pictures. The wording is really good. 

Really. I looked so real the first time I saw it. But I guess the pictures are really fake and that kind of gave it away for me.

Yeah, I realized pretty quickly after I posted this that this "seizure" by the government was faked. But your information about the registration information is very useful. Can the US authorities even seize a domain hosted in Russia?

Is doublebot the same type of scammy site? Bitcoin Factory is another one I'm aware of, but at least that one makes some income off ads. I'm curious, if doublebot is another ponzi-like site, and you are aware of this, why do you bother with them in the first place? Is it just the thrill of getting in early and trying to milk some btc out of them before they fold up?

Nothing new. It is just another "cloud mining" scam. How many of these cloud scams have we seen so far.... People don't seem to learn.

is ore mine a ponzi?
I remember thread in scam accusation board... this type of thread doesn't need any reply...
because if someone could earn with investment such amount can only take private loan from a bank...
trust in this type of return is a scamming approach from the beginning.
