I mean, its only your word here that hes trustworthy while you dont have to lose anything by saying that...
I have plenty to lose. Even with all the disclaimers I expect that my reputation will take a hit if something bad happens after I endorsed him. Also, I am very heavily personally financially invested in Alberto; I don't think sharing the exact numbers is appropriate.
It means that the investors take the risk here,
Of course. It stands to reason that the person standing to gain 3% weekly + recall penalty will take a risk.
so he should verify to them.
We can consider disclosing details in private to serious inquirers. But the premise is that I am somewhat trusted and if I say that I received a photo ID scan then I received a photo ID scan, and if I say that he received a physical letter I mailed to his address then he received a physical letter I mailed to his address - so public investors can be spared the trouble of doing it themselves.
On the one hand you say hes trustworthy but on the other hand you say that you dont trust him enough to offer a personal commitment too or not?
Neither trust nor money are boolean variables. I trust him enough to risk (reputation hit + personal investment) but not enough to risk 10K BTC. If I was 100% certain of his willingness and ability to pay I'd just give him the 10K BTC myself.
I dont want you to offer personal commitment now, i just say that its easier to convice someone who "doesnt care" than someone who puts his own money on the line
As mentioned I also have my own money on the line. And getting 3% weekly interest for it.
facebook / likedin / email address which could have been setuped in 30min
Facebook account dates back to February 2010, don't know how to check this for Linkedin but I expect around the same and he has 161 connections. That's not something you spoof overnight.
but Phone number and home address unverified :/
And phone number can't be spoofed? Nefario's address verification isn't rigorous anyway, and I've verified his mail address.
and the photoid ... 30 min photoshop work or an id from somone else?
He's probably going to the London conference so you'll have a chance to verify his ID in person.
maybe he should verify there his phone and home address too?
We'll look into it but his identity is not the weakest link here, I don't think there's any reasonable doubt that he is who he says he is. The question is how committed he is to upholding the contract; as mentioned, based on my communication with him I believe he is very committed, but there's no way for me to know with absolute certainty.
It means who are his friends, do they represent any bigger company? would they trade bigger amounts of cash on bitcointrade? do they perhaps run any successfull websites so they can give "advice" on running this margin trading website? Or run a bigger investment board where he could get free advertising to boost the site?
I doubt they have the credentials you seek.
If he would only want 100 BTC i wouldnt care much but for 10k BTC I (dont know if the rest doesnt) expect a nice strip from him to proof that my money is save...
You're welcome to ask questions, but in the end every potential investor will take the available information and make his own decisions. There's no way to rigorously prove that your money is safe, and commenting on lack of such proof isn't helpful.
