Bitcoin is too valuable to be used as a currency

I agree. The chance might be high that he is in a financial predicament.

I was lucky. I could push him with the threat of opening a scam accusation thread. I gave him a enddate when i will do it. That worked, even though he let make it one of his "partners". You see how that looks.

Anyway... now, since this thread is in existance, and maidaks name was tarnished, he might think he doesnt have much to loose anymore, so the pressure on him is lower than when i pressured him.

That's not an excuse. Even when banks go bankrupt, they need to refund the money to their account holders. He is scamming others too quoting his personal problems. If he does have any financial problems, he shouldn't do trades with such a high value. It's wrong to keep a person waiting for his money for so long. It's also a concern that after he owed $5000 to another user that he wasn't able to pay, he still kept trading with other users. What does that mean?

You mean when banks go bankrupt, account holders lose the money and taxpayer bails them out right? Don't be naive, welcome to the real world.

Late payment here, 2BTC -

The employment on that loan lists him as being unemployed. I think things are certainly not looking good for maidak right now

Didnt someone post in this thread here that he claimed that he lost his job but will start a new one? He didnt tell me about that personally, only personal reasons... that very well can bring one in a financial predicament.

So maybe he really was unemployed at that time?

Saying that... im not sure if i would give every random website my real details. Thats not smart as long as its not needed in order to confirm your identity. Its better to be cautious with infos. So i dont think there is much harm in giving wrong facts. Or does this mean problems for others coming from that?

I believe that maidak had previously posted that he recently started a new job and would have less time to respond to trade requests.

I believe that you need to sign something (digitally or otherwise) that says your asset and income information is true and correct in order to even apply for a loan, I would assume this website would be the same. If you don't give information about your income then potential lenders are not going to be able to determine your ability to repay any loan you get.

Edit:

Just want to let everyone know the reason on my delays is my own new employment has me working 60 to 80 hrs a week making it very hard to get time for this. One other thing is for any skrill / moneybookers clients I have to go through a verification process with skrill because I was flagged apparently and they've frozen my funds until it is verified. I've submitted all the info they requested just waiting to here back from them.

I can assure everyone who deals with me will get paid. Next week I will be operating a bit differently so my customers are taken care of in a reasonable time frame.

Why would he even state he was unemployed. Doesn't look good when you're trying to get a loan. Looks like he just took whatever he could get and then run.

Well you need to list your annual income on the loan page (or at least the annual income is listed), and it is possible that employment is expected to resume in the near future.

I agree this does make it somewhat look like an exit scam, although hopefully that is not the case

He is alright...I will let him explain whatever details he wants. I was just trying to get OP an answer about when he gets what is owed.

Xestr - all I have is a few texts with little more info than I posted. I was asked just to pass on when he will be back to settle up his debts. If what I was told is the truth then I understand the delay. I agree though stuff like this is not good when trading.

Blazedout419 it looks like Maidak hasn't repayed anyone anything or that he intends too due to lack of contact or forum activity.

Why not post his phone number so those that have been scammed can get in contact directly?

It would be a useful piece of information to help the authorities track him down.

Dont think its right to help keep a scammer hidden.

His phone number is public. Just look at his currency exchange thread --> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/1-exchange-buy-sell-bitcoin-ppwumgskrillw2w-more-best-prices-available-273034

He has this picture on the first post --> http://i.imgur.com/rE0WE49.png

It lists his phone number as 717-454-4274

Looks like Maidak has gone in to hiding or is too ashamed to show his face again here.

He's not been on for nearly 2 weeks now, personally I would post every bit of info I had on him, his family and friends.

Contact as many of them via facebook, phone and txt and let them all know exactly what he has done followed up by passing all that info on to the authorities.

$400 is bad enough but the other guy who posted in the scam accusation thread is down $5k.

If he does show up with some sob story I hope no one falls for the shit as there is no excuse for stealing from others.

I don't mean to sound like a dick here, and I know firsthand that some fucked up shit can happen in life, but I have to say I agree. Unless he has been in a coma or extremely terrible situation there is no reason why he couldn't have at least popped up on here Once to tell the people he owes what's going on. I would not be calm, cool, and collected as that one guy is who is owed $5000 for months... You will not make it in life if you just let people get away with taking 5 grand from you, and I don't mean any offense to the victim(s). At that point after $5000 is taken you are not only robbed but if you don't do as much as you can to stop the thief/defaulter then you are almost enabling them to keep doing it.

I'm not saying Maidak is a bad guy and shouldn't be forgiven if he repays what is owed, but I do think any negative feedbacks should remain and that his trading here should be rightfully tarnished. It would take literally 5 minutes (enough time to reply to a text message) to get on BitcoinTalk and briefly explain the situation. We ALL know that problems and unexpected situations can happen in life when money (or anything) is involved, but any good trader knows that communication is KEY if and when any problems arrive with a transaction.

Just wait it out for now, but the fact so many people know his personal details may urge him to return the funds. If he hasn't responded or returned the money with two weeks then you can escalate the situation.

I may write code in exchange for bitcoins.

@andresmm91, I agree with SebJu, that seems a little over-the-top. I think it's best to contact the OP by pm and see what info he already has. Blazedout has a telephone number for him, obviously, and the guy who is OP may also have that info. A debt-is-a-debt, and it's not good, but it's not a murder. I think we don't want to make things worse than they already are.

Also, FWIW, I know Maidak's real name as well, from having done some work for him. So it may be that most of us know his info. And if all you had to do was facebook that name then it's probably the case that what you've discovered here isn't really all that much new.

So, I've done a little research, and I think I've found some data about Maidak.

I could find his Facebook, which says where he's from. I've looked up his last name in Google, and the information matches.

I could also find his mother and father I believe, since they are all located under the same address (as well as their telephone number). Also the age matches the age he told me in one of our conversations.

Would any of this help me and all the member who got scammed? Maybe if all of us contact his family with proof of what he's done...

I'm not posting the information here since I'm not sure if it's allowed.

It would be better to first ask if they know where he is. If you go that far then you might be get told the story behind, if the story is real. Im not sure it would be the best to draw his innocent family into already. Though thats only my personal opinion. You might break a mothers heart otherwise.

At least he did not say "Two weeks (TM)", so chances are you may get it at some point. Grin

Correct me if I am mistaken, however it appears that he did say it would be two weeks.

Quote from: Blazed on June 10, 2015, 06:50:31 PM

I just spoke with Maidak and I can not disclose his situation, but I do have some info. Maidak will be back on the 24th of this month (2 weeks) and pay OP back.

It seems that he was having problems for some time now. Even though this guy had a very good reputation, I'm confused why people were so trusting of him after it was appearant of his problems/delays.

And then in two weeks it will be another two weeks or just more stalling. I hope I'm wrong though and he's busy trying to get the money together he owes people.

This user's password was reset recently.

probably due to the security breach. A lot of users recently changed their password.

Yes, but he could have updated the others when he stopped by.

Quote from: Panthers52 on June 12, 2015, 11:51:56 PM

Hopefully he will pay everyone back that he owes money to when he gets back. I think he reputation is beyond repair though.

His rep will be damaged for sure but if he pays it back he wont be forever known as a scammer at least. I have respect for people who do the right thing eventually but he may still have took the money as an interest free loan. Regardless, he shouldn't have got himself into this predicament.

I am not making excuses for him or saying the situation is not bad. I am just relaying info...letting OP know that Maidak is saying he will repay the debt.
