After receiving several emails from concerned parties, including former employees, it’s come to light that “Alex Green”, CEO of Moolah appears to be well known internet scammer “Ryan Kennedy”, also known as “Ryan Humble,” “Ryan Gentle,” and many other pseudonyms. A simple Google search will lead you down the path of abuse, fraud and destruction he leaves in his wake.

From the information provided, it is clear that the many people affiliated with this individual were not aware of who they were dealing with. The employees of Moolah, Mintpal, and Dogecoin / SysCoin communities were led to believe this individual was named “Alex Green” and were not aware of his history when doing business with him. It is not believed they were part of any fraudulent or suspicious activity.

This all started after we received an email from an anonymous email address which read:

An image taken from the link above (many look different, as he was younger):

The initial email was shortly followed by another:

This may remind you of someone from an infamous Skype chat recording:

Going one step further and searching by the @ryantehninja alias:

Moolah.io was not the first time that Ryan raised Bitcoins for a cryptocurrency project and then failed to follow through. In April of 2013 he announced the formation of Crypto.pm. The website’s design and investment offering are essentially identical to the Moolah PIE investment offering: https://web.archive.org/web/20130501045223/https://crypto.pm/invest. He claimed to have suffered a heart attack and received death threats, similar to the serious health problems and death threats Alex Green claimed to have experienced, and then disappeared. According to comments in a scam accusation thread on Bitcointalk, he was accused of taking over 500 BTC: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176756.0;all

Shortly thereafter, the anonymous contact sent what is ultimately the final nail in the coffin in determining that who we know as “Alex Green” is not who they say they are. This image has been confirmed by several individuals who have met “Alex” in person.

He's a scammer, that's it.

I lost money to him, LOADS of other people lost money to him.

Lemon: Give us our money back, or suck my balls, you thieving cunt wipe.

pity! be a scam only for that little amount of money. of course, 500+ BTC is large enough for some fools for which they exchange their honor.
Also, this service looked promising. A scam is always disappointing.

Just found out about this (hopefully still) coming exchange. I was wondering about the choice for mongodb since it's not transactional. (It is in my understanding that the trade engine is built on top of postgresql, but I don't know what kind of data on an exchange doesn't have to be saved transactional)

Lemon: I'm curious about why you don't show any progress after such a long period?

the site is still same as two months ago. you are wasting time or investors' money? you should give a clear answer.

For public clarification, this accusation is independent of Cryptography LTD and other employees. It is personal.

Any news on crypto.pm? Seems like this topic has died off.

I'm currently on vacation, hence not updating the thread :-). Having the joy right now of our email servers having just done down, resulting in my alert system flooding me.

When will you be back?

There was an update pushed 3 weeks ago, and I did not want to push another change whilst I was going on vacation. I'm back tomorrow.

It's probably wise to remove those email address or at least make them a bit harder to be farmed?

Now you've got me slightly confused.  For the record, is [email protected] read by you, the MD, or both?  (To make things clear for readers: I e-mailed Lemon 'To' [email protected] as published on his OTC GPG key and 'CC' [email protected] which he gave out publicly on IRC as the contact e-mail for begging for nuPlay prototypes as freebies.)

[email protected] is my personal email address, [email protected] is my work address. [email protected] is read by both myself and the managing director. The former two are now forwarding to my phone!

Oh, and for what it's worth: I find Lemon's explanation for why he couldn't make it to meet up in Bath perfectly plausible.
