This forum should have some kind of mechanism to protect the users from these scams. This way bitcointalk and it`s moderators are accomplices in the scam.
I like that approach. Let's all get scammed and blame the forums for it! It's like a capital protected structured investment! What could possibly go wrong? Cheesy
You can play dumb if you like and keep that semi philosophical attitude. The truth is that people got scammed and this forum let (by taking no action - helped) that person scam others. If there is no sufficient proof of existence of said device, thread locked, person banned. What we have here is a 40+ pages scammy thread.

And you're bumping this thread trying to deflect blame. The scammer scams, not the forum. There were plenty of warnings that a locked thread would have prevented from being posted. If someone decides to send money to crooks despite all the red flags and warnings and common sense - that's not really a problem with the forum. That's like blaming the post office for sending you the lottery win scams.

But if you would like to propose a solution (a real one, with implementation details and all) do it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=24.0

The forum already does have a mechanism to protect against scams: the loud and frequent warnings from high ranked members who have seen this play out many times before. If you didn't heed their warnings, well, you can't say you weren't warned in the first place.

There is also a legal reason for not attempting to block /possible/ scams - if the forum is not 100% effective at blocking them they could be held liable for implicitly backing any that slipped through (because plaintiffs would argue they thought the scam was legit since the forum didn't get rid of it).

But, IANAL, so... don't rely on that one for your defense.

I see the Dwarf website is down and their youtube channel has been deleted?

Ah yes - the exit strategy.

Seems likely!

BTC moved on saturday as well.. Tongue

What was the BTC address of the Dwarf?

Each address was different. There was an individual address for every different order

I don't doubt that there are those who were asked to pay only a portion of the full amount who are now being asked to pay the rest.
"You will pay the rest when it is sent" - she wrote.
I did not receive a surcharge request yet. Has anyone got it?

They said a connector would be included, but they didn't promise it would be exactly like this. This is from the end of video #4:

It will probably just have bare wires on one end: can't imagine they'd bother with the heatshrink.

Thank you ... that is the picture I was looking for.
