Hi everyone,

I pre-ordered an Excalibur 5 and, of course, haven't got any product in the end.
I contacted the curator a while back (thanks to nam-shub for the contact details) and, at first, they answered me. I provided all the required papers to them and they said they registered my claim, but since 3 weeks I don't have any more answers from them. I tried to contact them by email and by phone over and over again without any success. By phone I'm always redirected to their voicemail, but I can't understand a single word as I don't speak their language.
Does anyone here have any news of them? I'm really desperate about all of this. Don't tell me the curator is a scam too...

Thanks in advance.

Which Email address did you use??

I tried [email protected] (got answers at first but nothing since 2-3 weeks), [email protected] and the online contact form on their website.

The company has gone failliet, a lawyer (advocaat in Dutch) can not do much for you Cry

Unfortunately this still doesn't prove anything.
The orders apparently are not being shipped in numerical order, one after the other.
it looks like MAT is shipping out a couple of random orders in hope of stalling the lawsuits that are rolling in and keeping the community confused.
And last but not least, these machines look so much like rebranded alcheminers it's uncanny.
Oh, and then there's the fact that NO ONE has received a refund yet. Many people have applied for a refund half a year ago and have seen nothing so far...

you're spot on @nam-shub -- that is exactly what it is, and how that game is played.

Do we really have to re-invent the wheel all over again and again all the time: I mean, seriously, we have mail order and all sorts of not-so-different businesses for decades now, but still nearly everyone in the Miners business is so full of shit that you can hardly believe it.

And this goes beyond the original scam artists there; seems there are aiding and abetting parties out there as well:

Reading the notes on Xircomm and Lifeforcepools with interest. Will investigate those "connections" a little further. The start looking quite "interesting". Very strange (and telling, too)... Will post updates as soon as I have new finding there.

my post from LTC Forums:

Heh I live a couple of hundred metres from this address and I can see the building from my window.

It seems to be a nice place for an office (only 500 metres away from Starbucks):

http://www.fundainbusiness.nl/kantoor/maastricht/object-47401682-stationsplein-8-k/fotos/#foto-4

(still vacant according to the website)

They did register with the Dutch chamber of commerce:

http://www.kvk.nl/orderstraat/product-kiezen/?kvknummer=600044870000

Rent for the office: 750 euro (plus probably 2 months ahead) = 2250
Chamber of commerce registration: ~350 euros
Website: ~100 euros

So as it stands, mr. Coumans will ROI with just 2 pre-orders.

I'll give them a call tomorrow

and

To me this looks like a scam until proven otherwise. As said I'm going to call them tomorrow, and I'll also try and figure out whether they paid the rent on the office. I could pull this press release off with my meager web building skills, 500 euros, a vacant office listing and some guts. As said. 2 pre orders would already make it worth it.

I'll keep you guys posted

If this company is legit, this "Mr. Coumans" (the owner maybe ?) won't have a ROI (to ROI is not a verb Cheesy

!) with just 2 pre-orders, because he will have to reimburse all the developpment costs.

Edit : I've not seen the oldness of this thread. Now that's sure that this company isn't legit.

That`s it buddy, they registered your claim, and after all others are paid, they gonna pay you, of course there is no money in the company and there is no real office to, so you not gonna get any money back. Sorry, mate.

Yikes M.A.T. bankrupt and insolvent! Color me shocked... Cry

Was really pulling for JJJ0923/lifeforcepools, Xircon, and Matweewee to pull off a "Now you see me" houdini act, but looks like most of our whistle blowing efforts were heard by the masses that frequent this forum.

They may have robbed a few sorry souls, but looks like their scam has finally hit a dead end

any buyers here?

I think there was like 4 or 5 sock puppets in this thread showing fake M.A.T. miner/alcheminers as "proof" that the actual hardware does in fact exist.

In reality, no. No real buyers, just socks pushing the MAT con job, and burnt customers that never received their preorders.

since scamming seems to be this easy, it give me an idea... i was going to post it, but the idea stays with me, never going to use it..

i am sorry for anyone who has been scammed, i know how it feels, i lost 6btc to one once, the guy is still probably laughing at me..
i would never scam someone ether, but being on here long enough, i have a good concept on how to roll one out now..

Actually, I think that slogan may be quite appropriate. Its not like they will be the last mining company to go bust.

Now Coumans claims that the customers who asked for a refund are to blame. FFS some scammers just don't know when to stop.

Quote

"All of this is a blatant smear campaign,” Coumans said. “Because of these false allegations, a lot of our customers became scared they would lose all of their downpayments. This led to many of them asking for refunds, while some big customers even canceled their contracts with us."

He added: "This is what led to MAT's bankruptcy."

Let's be fair to the poor schmuck. Did we really expect him to to say "I spent your money on blow and hookers and didn't have enough left to buy the Alcheminer boxes and put stickers on them". Which is actually an amazing achievement if you think of it, seeing that Alcheminer hardware is A LOT cheaper than what MAT charged its customers. Perhaps some of the cash is still sitting in the blockchain waiting for the dust to settle.

I'm also a bit disappointed that CoinDesk didn't dig into the GAW Vaultbreaker aspect of this story. There's got to be some juicy details there.
