He still claims that AurumXChange is holding his funds. Ask them what they did with the money.

Apologies for another resurrection, but did ZT get away with it or did "Chen" actually exist?


BB.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but was the anti money laundering investigation into the 40000 USD LR transaction by Zhou ever completed?

If so, what was the outcome and where did the funds go?

At this time, it appears that there is an overwhelming amount of evidence linking Zhou Tong personally to the Bitcoinica account hack at MtGox. Our legal department has advised us to freeze the funds for the exchange order mentioned above until further investigation by the authorities and/or legal proceedings are concluded.

Please understand that some information will not be released until all legal proceedings have been concluded.

But if the thief says he is sorry, then it is ok, right?

Now that makes no sense.

You steal the funds just to return them to reduce criminal punishment?

LOL

I hope everyone can comment with more reasoning and less assumptions. I'm trying my best to calm down and attempt to get more information about the hacker, because he also used my email for a credit card fraud case. It's possible to discover something at that direction.

I have also listed a few people who know this secret email of mine. And I'm going to question them one by one tonight.

I'm definitely on the side of Bitcoinica customers and I believe that if the real hacker really had ties with me personally like what MagicalTux said, I may be able to recover majority of the amount back if the hacker can be warned. This issue is very serious and if I'm the hacker, I would definitely return the full amount back to reduce the criminal punishment.

The hacker seems to be a Chinese because he used Chinese punctuations in his English messages in the Aurumxchange ticket.

I will provide any information needed to the police once Bitcoinica files a police report.

I call fake on that chat-log. I can't find any evidence of that anywhere.

Interesting.  I thought I saw a whois and/or read discussion that bitcoin.org talk was hosted by Tibanne Co. Ltd??
Has that changed recently?

Deleted posts are only ever hidden from the public, despite the button being called "delete". They can be unhidden just as easily.

The forum is managed in the US but hosted in Japan.  Wonder what the legality is of complying with Subpoenas. There is probably also a Fed or NSA geek already monitoring  and mirroring this board.

Maybe the forum administration will be able to find deleted posts if they are not deleted from the database, or if they are, by restoring its backup (I heard the forum's backup is done pretty often).
