At the end the government had to catch him together with only a couple of smaller investors. But the big investors didnt care.
Because the big investors didnt lose money, they made money off Pirate's scheme.
I cant believe that since such a scam only can work if the majority of the money remains in the system. When all the big players would have ended with a win then the system couldnt have played out only on the backs of the small guys.
What happened to pirates BTCs btw? Did he gave them up after being arrested?
As far as i know he is still in status of being sued.
I prefer to hunt this guy. And i cant believe how he can think that he can get away with the bitcoins
all talk about getting revenge, why wakeup now? i saw some post about theswede75 'co-operating' he's laughing hard at 1,000+ btc profit. of course an investigation could already be underway some months ago, doesn't mean you will see your balance recovered. this is unregulated free market where nobody's here to hold your hand, you got what it said on the tin
Revenge? Maybe partly. I would like to see him get a reward for this. But i cant see all this scams in the bitcoin community anymore. I would like to see those guys jailed so that scammers will think twice before doing such stunt again. It would be nice if these scams become less because they learned they arent invincible.
TheSwede75 did make 1,000
BTC profit? Where do you have this from? Thats plain stupid. In fact he made a big loss. So if you cant come with some evidences or hints you shouldnt propagate such things.
I doubt i will get my BTC back. Thats not what im doing that for. Even with half the ipo it would be so few back that it wouldnt make much sense. But kicking scammers is something that would be worth something.
And i dont want to get my hand hold. But i wont hold the hands above such persons and do as like they were smart to scam others. Scammerprotection... as if...
