Topic: EvilPanda - GAW scammer Josh Garzas sidekick - Email Dump (Read 4692 times)

That doesn't quite fit the timeline because paid shilling started way before Paycoin launch. Someone getting paid to shill and attack opponents - even if by a "solid and trusted business" - doesn't qualify as honest in my book.

Also I'm quite sure - although don't have any specific proof - that EvilPanda was and probably still is running a large network of puppets to profit from signature campaigns and his position as GAW sig campaign manager was a perfect gig for this.

Or 3rd option (most plausible imo). EvilPanda started as an honest forum member, but got too close in his cooperation with GAW miners, which initially and for quite a long time were seen as solid and trusted business. Then Josh Garza & Co. decided to do a weird stunt of launching their own shitcoin, which ended up badly, so they started play dirty to save themselves.
EP probably had to choose whether cut himself off and stay honest, or carry on and take money for shilling. He chose money, so f**k him for that.

Honestly there are two types with that scenario...

1) Someone buys an account that is well known to use it fraudulently or

2) Someone builds an account slowly to use it fraudulently.

Pretty much everyone and or anyone yes.

Its why I trust a certain level, and people usually take abuse of their power once they got to be known on this forum which is damn shame.

Recently I stumbled across one of the GAW shillpuppets (Snorek - not included the list below unfortunately), which reminded me to bump this thread.

It's quite amazing that some of these accounts are still alive today.

Based on EvilPanda's e-mail here is a list of other Bitcointalk members or Panda's puppets involved in this shilling group:

He was a qualified forum member to me before, it turns out he is also a scammer, All right, everyone here could be a scammer.

This is worth a little bump. Now improved with links to each user's profile.

Lie much?

Some random dude talking about creating a coin. Interesting to note that a creep like you is scanning chats looking for my name though.

Edit to add: Something else that is interesting is your choice of a screen name. "Cold Spirit"? Very fitting. But, I have to wonder, was "DirtyRottenLyingShillCreep" already taken, or what?

Yes that is true, but its a shrillex fuckbag at least when I call you a shrill.  Youd think a CEO would get someone better than a grade school art teacher in bitjane to proof read his posts for him before hitting submit, instead of running around cleaning up after himself.  Is it wrong to expect better ?  Not on HT and Twitter it seems.

This guy is threatening to make a coindesk article about GAW stealing his coin name:

I finally got enough trust to impact people's feedback. This guy is now shiny red

I also reported this person to the admins and i heard he got 14 day ban. He made 2 other fake accounts immediately, i'll report these too and see what happens.

Not sure how to react to such feedback:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9862090


So finally see you guys are right. I haven't seen much transparency, and even invested a ton into gaw. So I tweeted josh about putting buy support up, and also buying logically, $10 coins on exchange now, instead of $20 dollar coins later. He said so he can increase price of paycoin for people buying?
HUH, I was like what, where is logic there. People dumping now are just cheap coins for gaw to take off market now, instead of paying out $20 from paybase later.
Unbelieveable, I ask few more questions nicely, even stating I'm investor, and that I have concerns, and if 100 million dollars of support, why not use some for exchange?
THE BASTARD BLOCKS ME ON TWITTER! For asking legit questions. Concerns.
I'm dumping everything gaw, asap. Unfortunately this weasel has convinced us all to lock our zens up into hashstakers so i cannot even sell anything or exchange paycoins.
HELP, what do i do to get out of this nightmare.

Stay cool man and don't act in haste. Don't make irrational decisions. Depending on how this thing pans out, you will likely be able to get your money back and then some. Just start unwinding AS SOON as you have the chance. If a lot of $ is locked up on hashstakers, call them directly and kick up a shit storm. I imagine they will wilt eventually and give you your money back.

Good advice. Don't make hasty decissions based on how you were treated on a forum or a social media site. If he doesn't want to talk to you it's a personal thing between you and him. He doesn't have to respond to your concerns on his twitter.

As an investor this is not a way to treat people. Doesn't mean he has to answer me on twitter, but to block me is showing lack of concern for investors. I'm done with gawminers, and their bullshit. They don't have a mining farm, they have a storage locker full of asics, that's about it.

I'm not sure but this guy sounds a lot like you If it is you, you've already read that post.

I'm very skeptical, GAW has been involved in fishy things in the past.
Care to elaborate? What were those "fishy things"?

Updated the price sheet today (checked all the listed stores)

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12GrBxMVpVEFa0gbbRGka3spDhtPWrFzcPVmV1eYIex0/pubhtml


Most of your prices are the lowest, youre tied with zoomhash on A2 mini and A2.
They have cheaper 1.3 and 27Mh units.

Also updated my Panda Pay sheet (have 2.6BTC left of campaign funds, I'll need ~1.5BTC to run it till the end of July, and then another ~4BTC if we continue in August)
We have 80 people posting with our sig on bitcointalk.


GAW
I managed to make moon look like an idiot here nobody supports his claims.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=641856.new#new

All these troll accounts got warnings from mod, we agreed if he manages to make them stop writing shit i'll pay him.
The only thing he won't do is deleting the thread, so we have to wait and see.
If the trolls get shut down there's only moon left but he's not sane, so the more he talks the worse for him. Nobody will take him seriously.
You just keep your services on the highest level to prevent more whiners from supporting moon

Zoomhash
Big negative comment, also mentioning Zeus
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=636015.20


Unfortunately, I no longer have any hardware in my possession from ZoomHash. I returned all of the hardware and was only refunded the amount of money I paid. No compensation for anything else was done.
Well, they do like to point out that they let me keep the 2 power adapters that I told them I had no use for and I wanted to return.
I'm really curious, because at no point during my conversations with ZoomHash did they ever question my technical skills until I posted openly on Reddit that the blades had one DOA each time. That was when they decided to inform me for the first time that their technician assured them that all the blades I said were broken were actually okay.
Prior to that experience I had provided them with samples of my .bat files and samples of my .config files. I had attempted using cgminer and bfgminer with the blades. I tried multiple cables, multiple computers, and multiple pools. I even bought brand new cables and a brand new USB hub because I wanted to definitely make sure they were DOA. I kept screenshots and I wrote down the serial numbers of the boards that I received. When I asked for ZoomHash to provide equivalent screenshots proving that they weren't DOA; ZoomHash was unable to locate any of this information and tried to make it sound like they hadn't just tried to throw me under the bus.
While the company did refund me the total amount of money I spent with them; they are not offering any form of additional compensation.
I understand your argument that they are under no obligation to provide further compensation to me; but ZoomHash made my life a living hell for weeks. I was willing to chalk it up to live and learn, until they decided to claim that the boards were suddenly working and I was at fault. I just want them to come out and say that they will not be providing me with further compensation because of my issues. That they will not honor the promotion they had on May 5th which stated "Batch 13 Guaranteed in 10 Days or Free", and they still believe that they are under no obligation to provide compensation to those customers who loyally pre-ordered Zeus miners with them.
In regards to the Zeus miner pre-order fuck up. There is a post on Reddit from their own staff stating that they did not receive the units in time. Then the company sent out an email regarding the "power issues", which was a shady attempt for them to try and shift the blame for their failure to obtain the miners in time.
It's fine if they don't believe they owe me any actual form of compensation beyond returning me my own money. I would just like them to publicly state it, if that's what they truly believe.

Hashra
People whining on their customer service and lack of responses.

Do you know where we can find those gigabytes of emails? I'm interested in seeing more in this story plus seeing the email headers as well.

It's a shame he was in on the GAW scam, he seemed like a really solid campaign manager and a trustworthy guy.

He was a qualified forum member to me before, it turns out he is also a scammer, All right, everyone here could be a scammer.

Google "gaw email leak torrent" but be careful. A VM or at least a virus scan would be highly recommended.

The 80 shills are not the members in the signature campaign. I think they are another separate army of bought accounts. I was on his sig campaign for a few months and posting good things about GAW was not part of the deal.

I don't think there is any doubt about e-mails. No one could possibly fake gigabytes of e-mails with such convincing details, matching known facts and with DKIM headers too.

And thank you for adding your trust rating too.

If the emails are authentic then he probably won't log into the EvilPanda account again.

It's too bad. I always though he was above board and did not have that close of a connection to GAW

Seems like EP has not logged in today.

Thank you dooglus for labeling EvilPanda appropriately.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=134217

Thank you for this thread, I think Theymos needs to be aware of this because it is possible mods from here were a part of this and something must be done about it.

I am so glad the truth has come out.

The shills mentioned here have left me negative feedback, got me a ban and EvilPanda knew about the ban before it happened, it was posted on the campaign site he/she ran for Gaw.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10105905

I questioned mods about the ban, the feedback and did not get a reply. I tried to save the emails but lost them when BCT went down a couple of months ago.

I was happy I got some people on the campaign to leave even though it was late in the game, it was about to close but did make some people aware of what was going on.

Paul I kinda stole your paycoined gif and did not credit it to you, sorry

Keep up the great work on exposing people like this.

Thank you!

Wow, so he's not even paying them much at all.

2hr per day is ~40 hrs per month (not working on weekends). 0.5btc was worth ~$180 in November, so they were getting paid ~$4.5/hr.

Unbelievable that some people would sell their soul and dignity (and commit a federal crime) for half minimum wage.

Is that referring to 80 shillarmy shills or 80 something else?

I'm sure I can get 2 or 3 guys that are posting for us at the moment to focus on asking for proof. We already did that in the reddit thread and the threads I showed you today in my previous email.

If they agree to do it we won't need much cash, as they are taking just 0.5 BTC/a month for this (each). It's not a full time job for them they are posting for maybe 2 h a day at the moment.

We still have ~80 members, so if you want to do anything just let me know.
I got another resignation today due to "ethical reasons".

I nailed this one:

Original post that bitgeek/EvilPanda quoted from. He was actually telling the truth above- the assholes spouting the crazy shit really were him or other paid shills.


Panda admits that bitgeek is one of his own sock puppet accounts, and is STILL posting with it. Today even, shilling for BitBingo.io What a worthless fucking bitch.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bitgeek-232904
