No one ever found Tom Williams either.

Tom Williams is probably Shane Smith and located in Nanaimo.

Plan:

Ordinary Plan (105-125% after 1 day)
Unleaded Plan (55-75% daily for 2 days)
Super Unleaded Plan (130-300% after 5 days)

GOF was an HYIP and most active on TalkGold. Perhaps Shane could shed some light on the subject.

HYIP is the type of business plan that Pirate would have been able to explain to his investors, thus them getting-it (pun not intended, but after penning it, I realized it's funny nonetheless--on second thought, this may be a double entendre, but now I'm digressing in parenthesis).

GOF ONLY accepted Bitcoin via WalletBet.

Notice it says "people who visited this profile also visited". It does *not* say "people who visited this profile also visited these profiles". So people who visited the GPUMax profile also visited the Holiner Psychiatric Group.

ok, but why? Grin

'Trendon Shavers' is an anagram for 'Horned Servants'. Coincidence?

it's from a Jimmy Buffet song.

If only I was from the right generation to have made that connection...
If his name had been "catchybeats-shittylyrics/artists" I would definitely have made the connection right away to (insert modern pop music).

Sad.

Has anyone realized that our Pirateat40 is about ten years shy of being a "Pirate at 40?"

What makes your proof of identity any better than Pirate's? His name, face, birthdate, and location are all known by me and others who invested. I know you are a Russian in the UK named Vladimir and that is it. Don't give me any shit about being well known because pirate is too, just by a different clique. I don't know any of your contacts. But I didn't insult your business until I gave you money and was disappointed.

Pirate may be known to you (this has not been demonstrated), but not to the other stakeholders in bitcoin. His actions may very well affect those not associated with his scam.

Vladimir is also not running a massive ponzi scam, so your comparison is feeble.

Deterrence. Not to mention justice. If scammers think they can get away without consequence, they'll continue scamming.

I had a thought.... what if unthinkable happens, miracle of sorts. That anonymous guy who holds right now reportedly 500k BTC of sucker's money will somehow give to those suckers ~600k BTC indeed. Hypothetically speaking. Would I need to apologize? I thought and thought and pondered this unlikely eventuality... and no I will not apologize.

Well maybe, just maybe, I would apologize to some specific person if I really said something real wrong...

Otherwise, hell no! Whatever will happen to the pirates op, tomorrow another anonymous personage starts another ponzi looking op, I will say the same thing again. I have nothing to apologize for in either case, and it is not my mission to please anyone here.
