ED TRICE advertises custom cases and fast computers for the website he operates called LIQUID NITROGEN OVERCLOCKING. Recently he has gotten into bitcoin and decided to create
custom hardware for bitcoiners, promising fast returns on their hardware investment (80 BTC a day!). He showcases his designs on his facebook page as well as boasts his personal possessions purchased with money earned from his business. He calls himself the BILL GATES OF PENNSYLVANIA and pays for advertisements that look like articles to be run in papers to garner attention for his business.
The problem?
- None of the designs on his facebook were ED TRICE's, just the designs of an ex-employee who left out of disgust after witnessing embezzlement and fraud by ED TRICE last year
- ED TRICE doesn't know how to design an overclocked computer and his promises of bitcoin returns are most obviously false.
- His sports car was purchased with money embezzled from orders that he instructed his employees not to send out.
- His photos of personal belongings are stolen from random websites and simply used to boost his personal appearance to sucker in marks
- He has a long history in the chess community for scamming people and lost a related $2million dollar lawsuit
- He has screwed over everyone he brings in as a "partner" or "employee" by involving them into the scam and asking them to handle financials and shipping for him so that he has a patsy
- He creates faux personalities online to refute claims against him
ED TRICE labels himself the "STEVE JOBS OF PENNSYLVANIA". He is more like the STEVE JOBS OF FRAUD.
Watch out for this sociopath. He has recently scammed a forum member living in China of $47,000 USD on hardware he failed to deliver or provide evidence of.
