I told my friend get the heck out of gox.... And he saved 30 coins just 2 days before SHTF.

At least he was intelligent enough to run his scam operation in a country where he can screw all of you and get away with it unlike that idiot Trendon Shavers. If pirate had half a brain he would have taken all the Bitcoins and run to Panama.
Trendon did kind of get away with it.
He got away with the crime not the money. That fat latte bellied hello kitty loving fucktard Karpeles got away with both.
Did you lose any money in mtgox?
Yep, I did.
Wow, man. I feel really sorry for you. If I lost my current bitcoin holding to someone like him and afterwards could see him just enjoying life and tweeting about sunsets like he didn't give a fuck or had a care in life, I really don't know what I would do.
I guess it's not really that big a deal. I only lost about 120 coins at Gox. Could have been much worse but a trusted friend warned me to take most of it out a couple of months before Gox lost their bank account. I wanted to leave a little in there to trade with. Although, it would be nice if someone set him on fire while slowly chopping off his fingers one at a time.
Only 120 BTC? That's $72k at today's exchange rate and next year it will hurt much more.
Did you buy your trusted friend a beer yet? If not, do that ASAP
Dude, at one point I had over 1800 btc at Gox and yeah, I've thanked him many times and bought him many beers since. In fact, just a few weeks ago we had drinks at Elbo Room in the Valencia corridor on my dime.

Look at what pirate@40 did.. Hes not in jail. What Karpeles did was terrible. Im lucky that I had less than a coin in my account. But hes going to hide behind corporations. Its unfortunate, but we can kiss our coins goodbye and probably wont see anything done to him. Guys like MK are smart, he knew the shit was hitting the fan when the us govt seized the 5million from his us bank accounts.. That should have been everyones clue that they were in trouble.
Remember all of the lies that his "support" team spewed about Transaction M. and delay in withdrawals due to that?
lol
So full of shit. Not 2 weeks later they ended up running and hiding then the word came out they had "lost" a fuckton of bitcoins.
Yes, I do.. I was VERY lucky.. They had turned off the btc withdrawal function and I still had like 150-200 coins in one account that I had forgotten about (well, it was in cash so I had to buy coins at an inflated price), I tried for weeks to withdraw them with no luck.. Then one day I gave it a shot... walla, I got them back... I consider myself very lucky..

why, this guy, is not in jail ?
i don't understand the justice ...

I was expecting him to be arrested by now. There does not appear to be justice in this case.
Has anyone from here actually contacted the Japanese police to report his crimes?
I don't believe he has been formally charged with any crime.

Let me get this straight. Internet bounty hunters go after people for as little as $20K being scammed. Heck even Loan Sharks will chop off your foot over $500. but. . . hear me out. . . this Karpeles stole hundreds of millions, he's back at his old condo tower and he spends his entire day at Starbucks drinking Frappucinos and he's white & obese (whereas most people in Japan are skinny and Asian), Karpeles stands out in a crowd and nobody's touching him. Am I missing something here?
You forgot that he's apparently also having a good time at the brothel once in a while.
Quote
Saw him coming out of a soapland the other day. I was on my way somewhere so didn't have time to speak to him. He didn't seem to have a care in the world.
Soapland is a brothel.

With the number of people he pissed off however, he will likely have to look over his shoulder for the rest of his life.
Lol... 5 guys lost more than BTC10,000 each. Another 90 or so lost BTC1,000 or more each. So we have a potential list of 95 people. God knows how many of them are Mexican mafia, NY Crime Families.etc.
Imagine what'll happen if Los Zetas are among the people / organizations who lost their money in Gox.
He will be put into a barrel full of oil and burned alive, I guess
An extra large barrel of course.

Yeah, I don't know if you all had seen the recent revelations from the SEC but Trendon actually managed to be a massive failure at being a thief. He should have had control on 200,000 btc after people withdrew 500k from the ponzi, but he only ended up cashing out ~150k usd, Meaning he lost so much day trading and through other means that he only managed to get out 75 cents per bitcoin. Which is laughable really.
Being a poor Texas hillbilly he probably thinks $150k is a fortune. I put twice that as a down on my last house in San Francisco. He's a fool.
Karpeles on the other hand is a professional thief. He has the history of a career criminal and no one noticed. I remember when he used to post on this forum. Everyone wanted to have his baby and was sloppy in love with him. It was easier to get away with robbing a bank than saying anything against MagicalTux.

Mark Karpeles is laughing straight to the bank. And it does look like he will get away with it.
June 22, 2014, 05:12:39 PM
Is there some kind of sick symbolism going on here with the pictures he's posted lately on Twitter?
A sunset...
A deserted train station...
A volcano, that has been said could blow at any time...
Or is it that he really is just that detached from reality? Why does he continue to post from that Twitter acct? He must know that he is going to be trolled and harassed for the rest of his life. Or at least until the complete story comes to light, and he is either vindicated, or has big helping of justice served up to his fat ass. Be it lawfully... or otherwise.
Nice detective work OP!

You have sunk to a new low with these recent actions Mr. Karpeles. Didn't think it was possible but you sir never cease to amaze.
