Jawad is escaping with 600BTC sent to Polo just now!!

Remember this from way back on page 1 of this thread?


Let's zoom out on that address:


Doesn't look particularly remarkable, right?

Until you overlay it with some more information for that area:


Palace Barracks. Razormind is registered to an address INSIDE Palace Barracks, a secure, entirely fenced-off, guarded and highly-restricted area.

Why is it so secure, entirely fenced off, guarded and highly restricted?

I'll just leave this here:

I'd really like some more deposit addresses from other people if possible, but I can tell you that within a few transfers that transaction was combined with some others and sent here:

Thanks. I'm on my smartphone right now so I've only managed to have a quick scan through so far, but it doesn't look good. Put it this way, I don't see it being sent to any multisig addresses. First impressions look like funds ended up at an exchange address.

If anybody else can chip in with the deposit address they were given it would help to better visualise the money trail.

Once I'm back on my desktop I'll give it a more thorough analysis.

No, it is more likely that the address posted by 'Rippleme' was incorrectly identified as Razormind's when it was actually the Antshares escrow.

'rippleme' said he had traced the payments made by his friends, but he also didn't know that a bitcoin address beginning with 3 denotes a multisig address, so it suggests he is not overly familiar with the blockchain.

Either that or his post was an intentional 'red herring' to mislead us.

Given some of the evidence coming to light back here it would not surprise me.

Here is the deposit address I was given:

1C7kENAgEXRZABPiJavwm5UJTsTQqayuKZ

Thanks for continuing to look into it!

AFAIK, Antshares ICO is bit unique that they said they can give you an option to refund BTC after ICO. If Anshares token rise investor would be happy and if market price bellow ICO price, you can claim to Antshares for rufunding BTC. This means to Jawad that this ICO scheme can be a good BTC bank. 

So, the scammer may split collected BTC to two streams that 1) routed to Antshares ICO 2) routed to Jawad wallet.

is this the case?

You're missing the point. Why would they have consolidated all the deposits into that multisig address before the crowdsale had even ended?



Any chance you can let us know the deposit address you were given so we can see where it was moved to?

Eh... still doesn't rule it out. Maybe everybody who bought tokens got theirs before the last day.

BUT

I did notice the address I sent mine to did not move until a couple of weeks after the sale ended.

For avid followers of this thread I can assure you there is a MUCH, MUCH bigger reveal in the pipeline heading this way. But, in the meantime, just for funzies, it turns out some of these 'champions' in receipt of 'field promotions' have sod all web presence other than a few rather scammy hits:


http://report-spam.email/adiliftikhar/yahoo.com

Feel free to look up Mr Adil Iftikhar yourself. You'd have thought somebody holding the prestigious position of COO for a 'global' corporation such as Razormind (pretends to be) would have a little more of a presence online than that of a "email me on my yahoo address for investment advice" scammer.

I just wonder those scammers are related to terrosim?      Shit, hope no retarded donate money to them.

It is razircoin's rebrand, how can these guys are so shameless, even don't change a name. LMAO

Ok, so with regards to:

I recall doing a search on that address when 'rippleme' first posted it and didn't get any other hits at the time, but having revisited the issue recently I found that a few days later this was posted on the Antshares blog:
https://www.antshares.org/zh-CN/Blog/Details/36
Now, given that the dates they give for the duration of their ICO match up with the activity for the transactions leading into the multisig address and that, something I found odd at the time, Razormind's DEOS ICO actually ended a day later, we can conclude that this multisig address is not from the DEOS ICO/crowdsale.

http://www.razormind.co.uk/crowdsale/

So the question now is, where are the bitcoins from the DEOS ICO?

It looks like Jawad Yaqub isn't on the roster now.

Oh. Look. I am shocked. Shocked I tell you.

Ummm,

Because I have concerns which go beyond whether this is just a personal grab for cash from Jawad. You see, I thought that Dr Ferguson was probably just going to be somebody who knew Jawad through some sort of Islamic social media connection and that he would have no idea his profile was being fraudulently presented by Razormind.

Turns out I was wrong. It would seem Dr Ferguson knows all about Razormind. Which is beyond disturbing seeing as he is an actual practising Doctor of Medicine and NOT an IT guy or a 'brand' specialist. This now raises the question of whether he is knowingly colluding with Jawad.

Let me show you how I go from "Dr Ferguson is just an innocent Muslim being used by another Muslim" to "Dr Ferguson's apparent knowledge of Razormind suggests he is in on the fraud".

The following link is Mr100Percent's everything2 writeups list:
http://everything2.com/node/superdoc/Everything+User+Search?node_id=1223826&usersearch=mr100percent&orderby=writeup.publishtime+DESC&submit=submit

Most of it is over a decade old but you can use it to get a good indication of the sort of topics he writes about so you can try out some more refined searches like:

Which leads to hits like:
http://terrorismmyths.blogspot.com

Allowing you to learn not just that his previously-compromised [email protected] address is now [email protected], but also that James Ferguson's Islamic name is Sulayman. A quick search on "Sulayman Ferguson" brings us to his very active predominantly-medicine-and-Islam-themed twitter account @SulaymanF

Checking through the list of people he follows through that account, we see references to medicine etc. but also, what's this?

Oh look, he actually follows Razormind (he also follows the previous account 'Razorcoin' btw, so he's been connected to Jawad for quite a while). So he must know that he is listed as a 'brand expert' and head of Razormind's 'US operation'.

Which is why we are left scratching our head wondering what a practising New York Doctor is doing allowing his name to be used to present him as something he is not for a company which has a proven history of presenting itself as something it is not and which just collected several million dollars in bitcoin through a fraudulent 'crowdsale'.

Hahaha! I'm not sure why you are still making researches on them. People's stupidity is mind boggling and that has been proven many, many times. To me this was enough:

Me: Hey, Razormind, I saw some strange discrepancies in your crowdsale, care to elaborate on them?
They: It's normal people to get confused. Write us at [email protected] to clear them out.
Me: But I have demanded (several times) for a public explanation?
They: Ignore. 
Me: Then fuck off, you are scammers.

What's the point of digging more?

And I've just noticed something else, which I find strange. 2 of the 3 articles about Razormind on CT were written by Niall Maye (source: https://cointelegraph.com/tags/razormind). I've noticed that recently he started following @FAILCommunity on Twitter (I am in control of the account). You can see who Mr. Maye is, but that's not the main point. The main point is that I know a guy who knows Niall in person. The guy is a former Director of Slovenia's Bitcoin Association and he is also affiliated with CT. He is a great and a very humble person! I have him on Facebook, we've talk A LOT about our lives, families and such. He also helped me in number of occasions.

What I basically mean - he's a gem. But why CT is not taking any actions?!

Hmmm....

@CoinTelegraph,

Guys, I know you are busy, but it would take you like 1 hour of "researches" (more than enough were already made) to expose that utter scam. I already named 2 guys affiliated with you and for which I can say they are good, but this is....   

You've got some skills cryptodevil!

that's remind me that;  in Linkedin, both James and Jawad recommended each other in same day - Sept. 1st. 2012.
