That will only help with a situation where someone does not have access to the old email. In this case, they did, the scammer just pretended to be me and got the actual accountholder to email me using their email.
(In this case, I spoke to the accountholder on the phone and was able to get their correct bitcoin address; and they will still be receiving their reimbursement).
Is it possible the accountholder played you to receive double the funds?(In this case, I spoke to the accountholder on the phone and was able to get their correct bitcoin address; and they will still be receiving their reimbursement).
I wasn't around in 2013, but I'm curious enough to follow this case now.
I'm very confident that the accountholder is not the same person as the scammer.
Was able to send another round of reimbursements just then.

i have contacted TF for coinlenders/inputs refund today. TF replied funds will be transferred to me within 7 days.

2. I am not Quickseller.
3. Quickseller has returned to me the 20 BTC years ago.

See? Without the transaction trail (which you and QS always post), you are nothing but a liar.
July 08, 2018, 03:12:37 AM
LOL. Are you talking to yourself, or is TF a separate person that you scammed 20btc from?
TF doesn't seem too concerned about returning that 20btc to his investors....

Are you willing to accept a signed message that says “this is [user name] from CL and I would like the proceeds from my settlement sent to [address]” (or something similar but still specific)
The above is specific enough to not be vulnerable to a MITM and should allow for situations in which users no longer have access to old email addresses.

A signed message from most addresses proves nothing; it'll have to be an address that you used to deposit to CL/Inputs; but even if so I'm not able to match it with the actual user.
If someone no longer has access to their old email addresses; a very stringent verification process can be used. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Important warning
It has just come to my attention that scammer has impersonated me and communicated to a user as the 'man in the middle'. The scammer was using [email protected], and passed along proof (such as signed messages, etc) from the actual user to me.
They were able to convince the actual user to email me at my admin @ glados.cc email, to establish verification. A reimbursement was unfortunately paid to this scammer.
Due to this, please be aware that:
- You must always email me from the address associated with your account. No exceptions
- All my bitcointalk PMs will come from this account, TradeFortress. No other users are legitimate.
- All my emails will come from admin+g [at] glados.cc; and will be DKIM signed by Google/Gmail (who hosts my email)
- Any email that is not from glados.cc is illegitimate and not from me
- You may still reach me using cl [at] tfbtct.e4ward.com or admin+g [at] glados.cc

I've also just received a reimbursement from TF. Thank you so much. This will pay for food on the table.
But not the 75BTC he owed you, right? Just enough to make you happy so he can scam you again?

I can confirm too that I have received a substantial amount of bitcoin back from TradeFortress recently which I had invested in Coinlenders.
I was probably one of the larger investors and have received a very percentage of btc returned. And of course the dollar value is significantly higher than back in 2013.
Like others here I encourage anyone who lost btc to any of his schemes to reach out to him now.
This is not a scam. He appears to be the only person making the effort to recuperate losses from all the "investments" and scams which were rife back in 2013.
I too have deleted my negative feedback and believe TradeFortress should be regarded as a bit of a hero as he really didn't need to do this and could just quietly have kept everyone's coins.

Same experience here. Say what you want, this really is admirable. The hit on me personally (naively enough I invested a large, for my standards, amount on CL) was substantial and impacted me for years (~2017). TF's action is unexpected and I can't attribute it to anything other than genuine interest to make good our loss.

Out of curiosity, how would you not know if the reimbursement percentage is less than 100%? I would think you know how much crypto you have access to and the balances of deposits when CL failed.
It is less than 100%; the reimbursement percentage may be slightly adjusted over this process depending on contactable users, crypto exchange rates, etc; so I don't want to lock in a percentage here yet. The objective is to fully send all of the reimbursement crypto.

I've heard about what happen years ago with you and what I believe is a project that went down hill. Honestly, its rare to see someone coming back to try to make things right. Is youre sticking to your word, I hope everything works out in the end.
I doubt he is doing this voluntarily. Probably some pre-emptive action to reduce a potential jail term...
You're cynical and clueless. I'm not aware of any criminal or civil action; nor is this a response or pre-emptive response.
I have been making reimbursements over the past 5 years; see this reddit post for an example.
By the way, when emailing please email me from the address you originally used on CoinLenders. I'm unable to send reimbursements unless it can be proven that it is your account. There has been multiple scam attempts.

Damn, he could have held on all these BTCs from others, nice job on the change of heart though.
Glad people are somewhat happy that people are getting their money back from CL

I was in touch with TF a couple weeks back and can confirm that they are indeed issuing partial reimbursements.
Your mileage may vary, but at least in my case the process was pretty straightforward. No payment request or anything else that could be used as part of a scam -- just a signed message with one of my older Bitcoin addresses to confirm ownership. I'm not saying that I'd entrust TF with funds in the future (no hard feelings) but this reimbursement process is definitely the real thing.

I also just received a large reimbursement from TF. Feel free to contact me if you want details.
