We have been communicating on telegram. Marco stated that he needed an extension and I did allow it. Due date is now end of the week.

Um, if you look at the whole context, I haven't accused you of defaulting on 3x loans at this time. I was only responding to why I would leave more negative trust if and when you do. As long as I don't see evidence of Magneto complaining, I will assume that you two are working it out in a manner that is acceptable to both parties.

So you're telling me that you already have a figure in mind that is "high enough" for exit-scamming?

Only because the amount isn't high enough for an exit scam.

At least poll shows no one believes I will exit-scam.

Flattered by the attention boys & girls. Magneto is aware of every step of mine and what my circumstances are.

I voted troll, but I think he will most probably repay late and make one last attempt to repair his trust. I don’t think it will work and he will probably start posting from one of his alts.

He absolutely used to own 2double0, claims to have lent money to him, was vouching for his identity (technically this was fraudulent if he did sell it), and they are backing each other. They both came back from long hiatus to take out loans. None of this is proof they are the same, but there are a lot of indicators that say they are.

He used to be sloppy with his various addresses, making it easy to link his alts together, however once he started attracting a lot of attention, he started getting better at hiding Blockchain evidence of his alts and IIRC, would randomly change the password to many of his known accounts near the same time. I wouldn’t expect to find Blockchain evidence today connecting any of his alts he will start using (or using more frequently).

I would be on the 👀 for someone who comes back from a long break that starts becoming active in the lending section (or someone who recently came back from a long break). Other tell tale signs of him would include being active in multiple lines of business that don’t require disclosing his physical location (he tends to avoid currency exchanges and shipments of goods).

It's pretty much implied in the "repay it late and borrow again" option... if he gets another loan we can have a new poll for that loan etc.

There should have another option for the vote, "Will repay in late, will increase loan amount day by day and then will leave the forum or will start trolling".

Added a poll.

I have seen only a few loans which repaid on time by Marco. Almost all the time s/he is late. And now he is negative trust I thought that s/he will try to repay on time to show that s/he is not a scammer/ s/he is a legit borrower. But again failed.

Because 3 different defaults on three different occasions is worse than 2 defaults on 2 occasions. We will see. If Magneto doesn't complain, then I won't chime in. I probably won't chime in if someone else new joins in the red paint party either.

Im sorry, but what do you think giving him more negative trust is going to accomplish? He already has multiple negative ratings warning others about him being late on loans and that his behavior is indicative of trying to pull an exit scam.

I can’t imagine what additional negative ratings could possibly say that would get someone to change their mind about trusting him.

You woke up at 7 PM

I guess I jumped the gun a bit - woke up thinking it was Tuesday.  

He still has 90 mins UTC

Well, if Marco's scheme involved going long, Magneto may be in good shape. If it involved going short, not so much. I'd like to see how it all plays out too. Better get some needed supplies ready.

If I'm not mistaken, the loan is due today and there are still 6 more hours to go on the east coast of the US and even more in other places.  It's not yet overdue unless I'm seeing things wrong.

Either way, I'm watching this with bated breath to see if this results in another default.  Magneto is a good guy, and I'd hate to see him get screwed by this guy.

Oh no... if only someone could have predicted this

Looks like he didn't repay his last loan on time.... shocker

Ok, so we're on the same playing field - thanks for clearing that up.

Not a jab, it's to show I don't need to "beg" as you put it. Enjoy the rat suit I rather stay far from "slightly bigger" waste like that.

Yes, deceptive.  Click on the reference link I included with your review.  Or, to be more specific: Click here.



Lol, is that supposed to be a jab at my financial situation?  Because I'm gainfully employed flipping burgers?  Although it's true my crypto assets are not enviable, I'm not insulted because I'm flush with something far more valuable; integrity.

Also, it's fair to point out I'm not the one begging for a $1200 loan from strangers on the internet.  In fact, I just blew a slightly bigger wad on a new suit.

Again, taken out of context...

By end of the week, through this and other incomes, I will have enough extra starting capital to continue. That being said, the reason I ask for more funding is to obviously earn more and earn that with less work.

You can pretend all I say is fiction, all you want mate.
