Can someone do the sum of the coins are mising? I see till now, the 500 are enough to pay back all that they are on spreadsheet

Many people are creating new accounts to post in this thread. I'm not sure of what's happening. The only one that can confirm if those are real is someone with access to the old website's logs. Most likely this btc-arbs guy that appeared here.

Who is viru? That isn't a bitcointalk member.

Email's sent, PM Sent, added losses to spreadsheet...

Hope this works...

Judging by his post yesterday, he seems to be opting to try and pay people back in full (except the larger debts, of course) and narrow down the number of people he has left to pay. That's probably the smartest way to do it. Fewer messages to have to field.

He doesn't have a posting record on the forum and so it creates a long wait period between messages he sends, I believe. So just sit tight, make sure your name is on the spreadsheet and you've sent him a P.M. with your username from the BTC-Arbs site and how much principal investment you're owed (not including interest).

As for it being a "bluff" that people have tracked him down - it's not. He admitted that someone threatened his daughter and I've got it on good authority via private message that the information is available, if he should renege on his agreement to repay the debts. In discussing it with him in private messages, I believe he intends to repay the debts.

BTC-ARBS

Can you please let all of us know your scheme for picking people to pay back?  Alot of us haven't seen anything yet.

ok but there is no true evidence that someone has found him? Only this statement about the repay and few guys claiming that they got repaid?

so all of this could be a big bluff?

That's what everyone that had coins in there would like. Thankfully I didn't have any. Someone posted here under the name "btc-arbs" and he seems to be refounding some people. We created this spreadsheet to keep track of the refounds, but until now this person seems to only have refounded the deposited amounts of small investors. And this makes me sceptical. All you can do is wait with the hope that he's not lying and will indeed refound you as promised. I'm really sceptical about this whole situation but still, you've got all my wishes for good luck with this.

I have been following this thread off and on since btc-arb went south. Just checked in (after the weekend) to see if anything new was up. Low and behold there was. I sent btc-arb an email and PM just now...and added my name to the list on the spreadsheet. Hope this works out. Would like to get my BTC back!

You're fortunate in that you don't have a large outstanding debt to be repaid. He'll probably get you taken care of pretty quickly. Just make sure he can check your username against the BTC-Arbs database.

Went on a job on Friday. Got home on Sunday to find my flatmate really upset because his gear was missing and he blamed me for not locking the door, also a lot of money was missing from my drawer. Turns out he orchestrated the whole thing to justify a burglary and steal the money from my drawer. Decided not to press charges because he has a kid to raise and I felt that him in jail would ruin the kid's life. I told him that if he would give me my money back (along with the other money he owed me) and came clean to what he did I wouldn't press charges and as long as he left the flat (the kid is living with his mother) we would be square. He left the flat imediatly and has since denied that he stole anything even tough I have pretty good evidence of the orchestration ( there wasn't anything else missing from my room nor his... and his confession to my face when confronted) I have since decided to press charges with the police and bring this guy to justice. I'm telling you guys this because you shouldn't be afraid of calling someone out when you are being robbed. I lost 0.73BTC on BTC-ARBS and I'm hellbent on filing all sorts of complaints if I don't get my BTC back. This is my refund adress 1BWNoeF44StCPhsV9njndkAL31Gw5VrHpP
I hope this goes north rather then south.

Big thanks to the person who set up the spreadsheet. Great idea.

Still waiting on a return here.

Ahh true, I hadn't thought about that.

Hi FreeJack2k2, I thought of adding BTC-Address to the spreadsheet but then thought this would be NOT a good idea to do since anyone can change the addresses. So someone could replace my address with their own.

Thanks for updating your info, I already updated it as far as I could find in this topic.

I think those in the know are taking a wait and see attitude, to determine whether his intentions truly are to pay everyone back. It was put to me that "if" he doesn't pay me back, information is available to pursue legal satisfaction. Obviously, my preference is the quicker solution of BTC-Arbs simply paying me what I'm owed...so I'm willing to give him the time he asked for, to do that. He told me he expected to have me paid back within 20-40 days and thus far, he's paid me two bitcoin in as many days. This is a much more serious and focused payback pace than I was experiencing in the "Ron James" era of tiny transfers from my "legacy fund" (in which I managed to get back 2.2 BTC in about three weeks), so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, for the time being.

EDIT:

Top of the new page, so I'll link the Google spreadsheet here.

The refunds are taking too long and you doubt his intentions? Is that what you mean?

this takes way too long, i doubt his intend...

Might be useful to share info about the admin and the inner working of btc-arbs from those who know in this thread to encourage the btc-arbs admin to get the show on the road with these refunds, if that is truly what he intends.
