That makes sense and I definitely agree.  Were you able to glean any information before the settlement?  Such as where was the lawsuit filed, the names associated with the lawsuit, addresses, and which law firm was used?

I do know someone did sue them.  Seeing as that person has repeatedly ignored my inquiries as to status after corresponding for several months I think the likelihood is that he won, but agreed to a non disclosure as part of the settlement.

I only say that as I've been involved in these sorts of things before.  It is very common for a party to ask for this if they have reason to want to shut people up going forward.  Considering the way these assholes have tried to control information I have little doubt they would ask for this.

 If there was no settlement, there us no reason to not reply as there wouldn't then be any agreement.

So, I have not been told this directly, however my personal direct experience with other instances in civil/corporate legal battles leads me to think a settlement of some sort was reached.

Do you have information others aren't privy to?  Is something actually going on with finding these people and bringing them to justice?

Thieving pieces of shit.

Merry Christmas Alex, how's it going in the UK courts for you, eh?

Even Satoshi got ripped off for $420 by these scammers trying to buy an FPGA miner back in the day.

...BA was about the worst of them all.  Tons of promises made that they didn't intend to keep with the lack of talent needed to actually make a working device.  Greed thrown in there somewhere as well didn't help.  This was basically an organization of thieves, liars, and scammers with the main goal to hurt hard working people and enrich themselves.  Just horrible horrible people in this world.

This company and their Romanian management can most definitely be classified as organized crime.

My question is why is the Chinese government allowing this company continue operations despite all the complaints to police and authorities about fraud and theft? Is the problem of corruption within the state so great they can't go after foreigners who set up shop to commit crimes within their boarders?

For more information please review the threads.

Oregon Mines is the continuation of Minersource and other scam ventures of Terrence Thurber and Matthew Carson. They have locked their thread and stopped answering questions regarding their legal responsibilities with regards to Minersource. Further Matthew Carson was involved directly with Technobit to defraud people of chips, money and miners. Also note that Matthew Carson recommended Dogie be used in a number of projects in these forums. Choose who you trust wisely. Note that Loshia a member of the Technobit fraud with Marto74 also supported covering up the fact that Matthew Carson was a VP of Oregon Mines.

For what it's worth I've still got 4 X1s and 2 X3 units mining at 10c/kwh and the build quality of the units is really good, almost over-engineered. 

It wasn't worth the stress waiting for so long, but in the end it wasn't a full scam either like I feared at the time.
