Wow what a mess! Thanks tricomp for the summary!!
I don't own a lot of shares (almost negligible) in coinpal, but I got quite the scare right after BAMM on cryptostocks posted the link to this topic. The guys that have plenty invested in this probably got a really nasty scare out of this, especially just before coinpal paid the last dividend.
I wish the experience of buying shares in projects on cryptostocks was less of a roller coaster ride.
He seems to take ages to reply. I gave him two choices yesterday on ways to buy me out but with BTC going up, he should do it asap as if I invest 50BTC, I am due 50BTC back due to the way it is taxed. If he can offer me enough at once i.e before they go live, I'll accept it and be done with this. If he offered me 40BTC right now, I'd take it and be gone as that's my $ investment back but technically he would still owe me the extra 12.5 but I'd forget about that. Thats if he gets back to me before Friday launch date.
If it takes longer I want every BTC back before I sign any graphic/logo over to him for ownership.
The other was he could pay me back in full, and I would still market for him.
I sent him a few logo files. They are registered in my name and although they are coinpal logos, the logos belong to me. If he uses them on a exchange without my permission then that is illegal and they will be destroyed due to the name being his/the logo file belonging to me.
He reckons he paid for them. He paid $1000 towards what I paid closer to $3000 for as I had to buy several from designers to get the best choice.
I really don't understand his delayed replies, and he reads this thread as he mentions it time to time - why doesn't he defend himself? Would it not be easier for him to get back to me asap instead of every 36 hours and just making himself look bad. It just makes me think he is trying to buy time for something (speculation on my part) I mean he said he spent most of my money launching it. Well since then there has been about 30BTC invested by others + the investors from before the I.P.O and he said he had a 30BTC marketing budget put aside it all doesn't add up, along with as soon as someone posting his info him asking godaddy for the privacy settings on whois.
He can't really scam us now cause we know who he is, where he lives etc but why not buy me out, then I'll come in here and let everyone know we came to a deal and I was bought out at least that way, he gets me off his back, I'll even give him the details of the marketing I had pre-arranged but with 2 days time he's cutting it short trying any type of hype other than the reversal marketing I used in this thread.
I hyped it up with my ridiculousness so people would be watching and if he actually came forward with an exchange the thought to be scam would actually be something that was one of a kind but when I took a closer look there was way to many things I didn't like the look of to continue doing so and as a investor I though I should let you all know in case you invested as well but I was ridiculed for that.
The hacker thing was a mix up, just bad timing and looked like Coinpal locked me out but it wasn't them as far as I can tell. But where are the miners promised? The photos of mining gear could be from anyone, if I offered one of you to take a photo of your TV and make it look like mine for $500 you probably would, right? The way I was talked to as well, the textual analysis I did on it, the other partners spelling common words wrong the same, the phrases used. They were most likely Ryan Gay himself.
I don't doubt his attempts at making this work, he is just in over his head now and needs to come forward buy everyone out who wants out who has an actual majority share in this business and tell everyone 'look I'm trying give me some time to get this up and running'
From previous experience I should see a reply in the next 6-10 hours from him.
