In the post I linked saddambitcoin was offering xmr for people to goto Cryptocoins-Dice.com and I said I wouldn't trust the site and now that post is deleted.

WTF Mods in on this scam?

WTF

Is it on bitcointa.lk?

In that post you linked, I am offering XMR for people to go to #tippero IRC chat room, where the profits donate to the devs. Please remember at that time Monero gambling was a brand new thing, we were all very enthusiastic about any new development.

I hear ya, I was trying to figure out why the link was wrong and then the search engine was failing to find the post so after a few minutes of continual search variations I got steamed. Then a few minutes later the exact keyword search worked again and there was no way I incorrectly typed it as I have them in a drop down list.

Seems like a lot of work was put into the site just to steal some coins. I hope nobody lost too much.

Looks like he stole about 50 000 USD worth. Not too bad for a few months, but don't forget he can probably relaunch with a new skin on the software and a new Newbie account and scam some more people.

I lost about 1500 XMR, 500 of which was profit from investing in the house. Seems like a lot of work was put into the site just to steal some coins. I hope nobody lost too much.

Bobbax's phone number, which I promised to keep private (but obviously I do not feel tied by this promise anymore) is 0622150740. This is a French mobile number. Due to Charlie Hebdo events, police doesn't record complaint after 8 PM and today I had a general meeting (unrelated to crypto). Today, Il go back to the police station to see if I can register a complaint (it will be hard to explain, though). And if they are closed to the public on Sunday, I'll try again on Monday.

For the sake of completeness, I'll publich what I replied to [Suspicious link removed] in a recent PM:

Quote

I talked with him on the phone (French mobile phone) on several occasions and for hours, including for debugging the site - accent was clearly French, not Belgian, Swiss or Quebec or Africa or foreigner. We also agreed to meet. First the 7th, then I had to postone to the 30th at the last minute because the places I wanted to show him were closed on week-end.

He basically abused me and since I put my reputation on this, you can imagine I feel very bad.

Everybody can make a mistake - even if it is real bad one (I have deleted the HR-Database from a real big (Top 5) executive consultant / accountant company in germany once - learning they don't have backups).

Thank you for your apology. Learn from it!

regards

That video clearly states Bobbax Hotel or something. That would be too much of a coincidence if it wasnt related. Someone save that video locally, Im not sure how.

Here:

Some other forums. Maybe you could find something about him there.

As you all know Magi (XMG) use the word fair in many promotions. If you lost XMG by our mistake for not checking this website i will personel pay you back the coins you lost!! Just sent me a pm.
Special thanks for Wpalczynski for inform me about this!

Thanks, but I assume responsibility for my putting my coins in the wrong place. And the loss is a lesson.
Just consider to remove any link or reference to Cryptocoins-Dice.com from any XMG site/thread.

Say it ain't so, Bobbax!

I quit playing on CCD a few weeks back, after I lost about 100 XMR gambling. I just decided that I had bad luck, and that I didn't want to lose any more precious Monero.

Seeing the controversy about DOGE, combined with my built-in skepticism (especially for anything crypto-related), further cemented my decision to avoid CCD.

But, I wanted to trust Bobbax. As did we all. I know, he could still surface with an explanation and return people's funds, but I have to think that this was all premeditated, with the site being down. thread being locked, etc.

I sure hope that this is resolved and that people get their coins back.

Why scam though? Just leave the site running and rake in that house edge monies. Unless the guy is just a completely soulless bastard, or got hacked and decided to cut and run.

So it should be the same for this scammer, we could report him to [email protected]

maybe to the flics too (french cops).
I had 400K+ doge and a few hundreds XMG there. I will donate all my balance there to whoever get the scammer nailed so to recover the funds.

Amigo,

For a fair and unique coin it's hard to sort out who is a scammer and who is not. Magi team received many messages from people who would like to help Magi. Magi also noticed some strange actions on the different exchanges. Not everbody is happy with the grow of Magi. When in doubt about cryptocoins-dice.com we will remove it from our thread.
Magi wants to precisely distinguished by unique developments in the field of mining, payment etc.

I know he has videos himself on youtube. He posted some of them in the chat.

It was about some rpg maker tutorials. Super rpg or someting like that. They were in french

-snip-

Not sure. My memory is not very vivid but it doesn't really look like I recall.

I have my doubts as well about the link I posted. Wish I had saved the video in the beginning.
