Bossauc ou Davout, auriez-vous l'amabilité de nous fournir le numéro du rapport de police dont vous avez donc déclaré déposée?

While we wait for a police report number, here is a fun French story.  All true.

Deep in the wilds of Alaska, the (filthy socialist) state has build  beautiful cabins on various of the lakes which dot the terrain.  Many of them are hundreds of kilometers from the closed human being.  They supply these cabins with firewood, a rowboat to go catch fish, and various other accouterments.  One thing that is lacking is any form of communication as such a thing would be technically unfeasible in the 70's and but for satellite phone, still is to today.  The amazing thing is that the cost to rent such a place is trivial.  In the range of $10/day.  The catch is that an interested party needs to get their ass out there, and that requires paying an air taxi service who flys floats.  We continue...

One summer as a pre-pubescent whelp I was hanging out with my dad on Kodiak Island where he had a small air taxi service.  I entered the office on one fine day to find two French couples who were probably in their 50's noisily communicating among themselves in their mother tongue.  Eventually my father interjected something in French.  The conversation came to a dead-stop.  Eight wide eyes staring at him and four mouths agape displaying a distinctly alarmed expression.

Later I asked him what he said (being myself ignorant of the language and being unaware that my dad was even fluent in it.)  All he had said "closer to $400."  The reaction was a function of the four French-persons having been in a decisions about whether the proprietor was trying to rip them off, and it would have been fairly rude had said proprietor been a Francophone.  None of the four had considered the possibly.

So, the four decided to commission the transportation, but had neglected to acquire batteries for their camera.  I knew that if I ran, I could get the batteries that they needed before a certain store closed and offered to do so.  I accomplished the mission and proudly returned with the prize, but to my shock I didn't even receive a thank you (in any language) much less a tip.

My father delivered the guests to their destination, and some days later when he was to pick them up he says  "Well, I guess I better go pull those frogs out of the lake."  Then he looked up in the sky and judged that "it looks like it'll be pretty socked-in up there.  Maybe better wait until tomorrow."  Then he went about his business flying cash out to cash buyers, flying injured/fired fishermen off of their fishing vessels, and so on.

For each of the next few days the routine went on pretty much as the day prior.  There were mirthful discussions about how long a group of people could survive by deriving nourishment from one another's bodily secretions.  There were theories about whether especially powerful body odor indicated particularly high caloric quality bodily secretions.  And that sort of thing.  All good fun.

Eventually my dear dad jumped in the plane and went to retrieve our fearless comrades.  He said that when he buzzed the cabin the 'frogs' piled out the door of the place and actually ran into the lake waving their hands wildly.  He said it was the funniest thing he'd ever seen.

My father learned to speak French conversationally when he'd been stationed in France while serving in the Air Force.  He apparently had a lot of 'luck' over there.  Seems that French men tend to be a bit on the effeminate side, and French women tend to appreciate a more 'rough and ready' approach to male/female relationships sometimes.  Enough to where there were actual physical confrontations among them for mating rights.  Also they appreciate it when a man does not pay undue attention to the anus at the expense of other more distinctly female body parts.  Who knew?

It is thought with a high degree of probability that I have one Francophone half-sister.  Probably another half sibling of unknown gender, and very possibly some others besides.  I occasionally wonder if they turned out like their American siblings.  That is, strongly progressive and highly capable persons who have, net/net, given much to benefit the less fortunate of society while not carping about it all day long.

Boussac, Davout - should all be labeled scammers at this point. Then the tag could be removed, if there's comunity consensus later on that they're in fact not.

Boussac has already demonstrated his inability to deal with customers in a professional manner, he's also caught lying, and he will not share any details about what's going on with the community.

But hey, he's a frenchman, and when you're not - you must be an idiot by default.

It should be abundantly clear that no reference to any investigation is forthcoming from Paytunia.  Occam's razor strongly suggests that this is because there is none.  That would make sense if Paytunia has staged this 'theft'.

Since it is unlikely that there is an investigation, and Boussac clearly stated that one does exist, it follows that he is a bald-faced liar.

We have discovered that 'Boussac' is a fake identity that this individual has created.  Also that 'Paytunia' is a tangle of relationships none of which seem to lead to anything more than some private apartment addresses.

My sense is that it would be a minor miracle if anyone gets anything back at the end of the 90 day period.  90 days would, however, be a reasonable amount of time for a fraction of the victims to forget about things, lose data, and for various trails to go cold.

Some people have suggested to me that a PI is an appropriate person to hire, and that certain monitoring regimes on individuals and businesses are possible.  I was never sure if such a thing as Private Investigator even existed outside of TV shows.  I really have no interest in taking things this far and I'm not interested in footing the bill or entangling myself with such things.  I am, after all, not out more than the modest amount that I budgeted to potentially lose in this theft.

I am, however, quite interested in making sure that a coherent set of documentation is formally presented to the French legal system such that they can choose whether to pursue this crime, and if they do, that they have material to work with.

I have yet to find an appropriate person with a good grasp of the French legal system to retain in an advisory role so I again would request that anyone who has such leads please ping me.

Thanks,

Thanks again, Boussac, for once again dancing around the police report issue. One question: Was it a Tango or a Waltz, for I was highly distracted with your dick up my ass during the dip.

Yes no spam i have 3 iw reference numbers and 3 wallet address keys i guess there in the right order as i have the keys and reference numbers in two different folders.  my claims have no private keys cos they came from a previous instawallets.

Look forward to my coins  ;] if they are at a all time high and instawallet comes back improved and has a donations box i sure well whack some in ;]

If your wallet was created around April 1, it is possible that it was tampered with in the database. We will examine the grey zone claims after July 1st.

As long as you have the claim ref number and wallet key you are safe. I suppose you have checked your spam folder, obviously.

I Made 3 claims last night and have only received two confirmations by email

 Boussac

Please can you confirm that you have 3 claims with my bitcoin user name and  email.
I do have the 3 reference numbers, But I just want to make sure as i have had only 2 emails.
 all so the balances of each claim form was 0.00 on all of them ?! i get the impression from others on here that the balances should be the amount of bitcoin that is missing??

I understand your busy and stressed and understand the logic of waiting 90 days.
But can you just confirm that my claims are genuine & safe

cheers

A.B

Seconded. This matter still stands as a serious issue. We are all happy that the claims process has begun. But there is a trust issue with Paymium based on their refusal to provide proof that a police report has been filed.

Boussac, please supply it. You are trashing Paymium's reputation as an ethical company by not doing so.

Still have the same problem.
Some wallets just don't want to upload and still show me this message :

The page you were looking for doesn't exist.

You may have mistyped the address or the page may have moved.

Is anyone experiencing this ?


@ Boussac,

j'ai encore des wallets qui ne veulent pas s'afficher et affichent encore un message d'erreur.

Je suis pourtant bien sûr de les avoir créées, certaines sont peut-être vides mais il m'en manque une principale. Est-il possible que certaines wallets, trop récentes, ne s'affichent pas et donnent encore ce message d'erreur ?

en vous remerciant d'avant pour votre réponse

Haha forget that. Split it up amongst all the many users that were inconvenienced, like a small tip.
