Topic: bitscalper anyone use this ? [PASSWORDS LEAKED] (Read 40998 times)

lets see...

my amount -> 1.27 btc

please reinvest this amount!

Guys,
I'm sorry things are taking this long. We are still trying to recover the lost withdrawals database table, and it seems there's no way to get it back. So we'll try to recover the whole accounting this way :  Please send an email to [email protected] with the amount you claim you had left to widthdraw, including a list of all your deposits to bitscalper, once we have figured out how much we owe to anyone we will proceed to reimbursements.  Anyhow we're back to business with a powerful new strategy and we'll update the website in the next few days.

I think I had 3 BTC in there or something..  E-mailed him, never heard back.  It was obviously a ponzi scheme, but I didn't want to bail out after only making $0.50 which was how much I'd accrued before the whole thing shut down.

Bitscalper/CoinExchanger claimed that was his reason for not wanting to give up his identity (even though I think it's bullshit),

let's say he was right. Then wouldn't we be promoting his actions by talking like that?

Justice should always be served, but it doesn't have to be at the end of a pitchfork.

Anyone know an Italian mafia member?

I had 1BTC there for joke. Got it out before shitstorms happend. I had a few conversations with bitscalper on irc, when he came to #bitcoin-otc.

@bitscalper,
you wouldn't want us to resort to Voodoo , would you?

Darn, get ripped off dot com is taken.

Well not to worry, tell you what I can do, you'll love this, I can implement "the flipist method", and variants I might as well call Flippist Methods" as some of the bots in my
Battle of the Bots project. By investing in such bots you can lose assets programmatically, by willy nilly throwing them into almost anything at random, but, and here of course is the kicker, the delicious thrill that makes it all worthwhile... you could even actually fluke out and make a profit, especially if you can offload shares in a Flippancy (Flip'n'see) bot to some other lucky punter...

GET OUT OF MY BUBBLE, IM TAKING A BATH

If you know anything about internet scammers you will recognize the language this rip-off uses.

"Checking that everything is in order..."
"Hundreds of hacking attacks..."
etc. etc. etc.

Folks, I'm sorry to be the prick in your bubble, but there is no magic machine that can turn one bitcoin into two bitcoins. Do you really think some fool who can't even tell who is faithful and honest customers are from "hundreds of bogus requests"? That it takes a month to "check everything is in order" and somehow make the funds "safe" when all those funds do is sit on an address that he controls?

Face it- you got screwed. These few coins that he released, just like every other pyramid scheme, ponzi scam or mountebank on the street corner went to a couple of accomplices or early volunteers who get a couple of points in gain in exchange for a disproportionate amount of positive feedback. Look who the loudest supporters are... the very same douche bags who claim they may have gotten a couple of pennies back, yet nobody in the latter stages of the scam received even a single response.

You were fleeced, you are the willing lambs led to slaughter by a very old and well established fraud. You were so ignorant you didn't even see the irony in the name "Scalper".

Wonder if I started a website called "iamgoingtoripyouoff.com" how many of you would be willing to send your money in if I promised to use my super secret formula to double your money in just 90 days. I have worked this program up through using proprietary trading algorithms that are only known to thre people in the universe and need 7 Crays chained together to crunch, which I happen to have access to. If you are willing to send in just 5 btc, I will use this system to double your money, as a favor to you, the trusting stranger that I will never encounter in person, or have any real world contact with, just because I am that wonderful of a guy. Just trust me for 90 days.

Sound ridiculous?

That's the point.

Indeed. Sad, but predictable.

@Bitscalper: You had now over 1 month time to check everything. Your last forum post was on 17th February together with an announcement on your website. Since 9th February you didn't pay out the user payout requests nor reply to emails! On 29th February you add an update on our website saying that the website will come back within a week. This week is already over without ANY website update, made payouts or any other sign of life from your side. You still keep silently checking this forum. What do you think how this looks to people who trusted you?  

If there are still some users who are hoping that bitscalper.com is not fraud just look at the current situation.

In the whole, short bitscalper.com history there were some unusual information, which didn't let it look like a classical scam.
I'm still not sure if bitscalper has really planned the scam from the beginning on, or he run into trouble and couldn't or didn't like to fix it and chosen the alleged "easier" way.
Anyhow it doesn't matter so much when exactly in point of time it turned into a scam.

I'm sad  to see that it ends like this.  

I agree, and I'm looking forward to their changes.

Think he used google to translate from his god knows what language to English instead. And hoo, I do have a few accounts with them and made almost 15 btcs earlier on and I bailed out early. You are either really thick or bitscalper themselves.

CornedBeefHash was dead on the money to take my warning and communicate directly with it.

Anything you send now, or in the future will be stolen from you to make a couple of token payments to the many people who are demanding their "payouts". Once a couple of them can say "oh, look this worked, I got my 0.0054 btc profit after a month" even more potential victims will fall for the scam and send their money it, and the scammers behind this will steal even more.

It is a classic ponzi scheme. There is no magic alchemy that turns one bitcoin into two bitcoins. There is no such thing as a free lunch, especially for faceless online deposit schemes.

Simple reason, this forum is not a gateway to Bitcoin world, not everyone involved reads this forum so there is a chance to rob off more people. Reason one.

Reason two, people are still in denial and willing to throw more money at this, why would you ignore that?

I have to agree... but im not quite sure what they could do that would encourage people to deposit more coins once they are back up.

If they did make off with a bunch of coins why are they still around?

Who will deposit more coins there after the "new and improved version!" ?

Maybe I'm naive but it seems more like a failed business than a scam.

We discovered we didn't make off with enough of your funds, so we are coming back with a shiny new look, and vague promises of fixing everything so that we can get more from you in our ponzi scheme.

Remember the Free Lunch Corollary.

Don't know when this went up, but here's what the homepage says now:
