Look at his face...  Angry Angry Angry Angry


Anyone here living in BC, Canada able to go pay this guy a visit?

I also just saw the "grinning" cow on the website. He wouldn't have posted it, if he were in over his head. Seems to me, he just ran with all the money he collected.

This is very unfortunate for the people who deposited their coins there.

Which exchange do you trust besides Cryptsy?

I trust cn.bter.com and (maybe) vircurex.

Understanding Bitcoin
March 2013
I suspect Bitcoin is a game changer much like windows was. It is hard not to love it once you understand it. The growth of Bitcoin is unprecedented and surprisingly the percentage growth of the alternate digital currency called Litecoin has been even higher. Many millionaires have been created by this and for the rest of us, well we missed the boat - this time.

For now, i would not say I'm "winning". We got a generic promise of a 150% refund with the future earnings of the site, but i would be glad to change this wannabee 150% with a 100% refund in my wallett NOW

I only hope he will do what he said... For now, i'm waiting. Fortunately i didn't lost so much money and now there's hope for a refund, but i still think he didn't manage the things wery well, with the silence and the cow and so on..

Chill people....You might all want to check the recent update to the site. He WAS hacked and he goes into a lot of detail about it on there and yes, stolen coins will be replaced and we will get a 50% bonus..so for every 2 coins we had on there , we will get 3 back!! Although communication was pretty slack on his part, u cant argue with the fact he will be replacing all coins and compensating us, which he doesn't have to do. Good times!!! Grin

this is not an exchange to trust with any significant amount.  according to these terms they can shut down and do not have to pay you any coin you deposited there.  Its something you have agreed to to automatically when u sign up :\

It looks like a site that will claimed to be "hacked" in a month and disappear, and there is enough of that already happened this year. Sad

Ok, not forggeting my last post i did say that im not actually calling anybody a scammer here, jus very worried. Since reading many other posts and the guys facebook page, i would say that this does not appear to be a scam of the bat. and upon refreshing the page i am greeted with this message.....

It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

.....hmmmm i dont wana say this looks promising , but....

I had given up on my coins until i got stumped by his facebook page. I mean he had his site details whois protected, had no contact feature on the site and no twitter page to keep us adequately up to date. Never again.

In the short time the site was up he got a lot of new signups, had to add more RAM to the server to cope with the load, and had to rebuild the disk. I suspect he's underestimated the hardware requirements and probably just shopping for/building a new server. Give him some time.

I'm hoping if enough of us FB message him and his family on there he will be pressured into at least putting this thing back up so we can get our coins out
