He is hiding out in Bulgaria, stalling for time to get himself cut off from the US. He even states as much in the chats.

Waitaminit... Dude is looking to never return to US soil over this scam ? Is that correct ?

Who knows, he might be forced to return, but yea it's possible he is staying out there. BUT his corporation AMT will take the bulk of the damage as well as his partner Jim Brown in all this. Surprised he is still making appearances at Bitcoin conferences after all this.

What's the deal with people named Josh being bad actors in Bitcoin space :| ?

This Zipkin dude is certainly court-bound if what I'm reading has any basis in fact (and I have to think it does)

Not sure how he can continue to posture like this without realizing he's going to need to face the music sooner or later.

Sad.

Well Folks, as promised here is the entire contents of the AMT Chat room I had setup on Skype. Warts and all, being 206 pages long it is far too much to directly post so for now is on an ancient gpage of mine until Opeium gets it on Pastebin as well.

Sorry for the messy link but is what it is Wink

Look who is at the conference this weekend?

http://www.bitcoin-conference.eu/

AMT Miners Joshua Zipkin is at the conference.

Anyone going to be there? This is his presentation....kinda interesting seeing as he built that on our hard earned money. Would be interesting to see a video of what he has to say on the matter. And the boos he gets lol.

The evolution of industrial mining: Past, Present, and Future.

Josh Zipkin, CEO of (AMT) Advanced Mining Technologies

For anyone with issues and who felt they have been defrauded by Joshua Zipkin please send me a PM with the details of your situation (no personal information required) just the order number and the amount. If you have been in other ways defrauded or somehow illegally acted upon by him feel free to also put that information in the PM. I will reply with the information you will require to make sure action can be taken. If you are international, this matter can still apply you as well.

And for our Chinese friends monitoring this, Josh crossed the line in another AMT SCAM thread so I feel this is needed:

Alright.

This is starting to piss us off. Let's spin it a little bit shall we.

THESE CHATS ARE BULLSHIT, THEY ARE FILLED WITH SO MUCH CRAP THAT IT HONESTLY CAN'T BE TRUE EVEN IF IT WAS SAID.

EHEM Ok Josh, ya crossed a huge line there.
THE CHAT LEAKS ARE REAL You seem to have forgotten that I created the NDA-ONLY Skype chatroom To put into clarity, yes, I am customer2 in the chats and have full records of what was said there from moment I opened the room and invited you, Opeium, and a couple others in there to work out the problems with the first publicly released AMT/Bitmine.ch hash boards.

Oh btw: I hope you do remember that you never signed the NDA between us. As such - technically it is invalid. I have respected the intent of it (and yes I did sign a version of it I had amended - and which of course you never returned a signed copy of). I stil intend to respect the technical details and IP discussed however - the gloves are off an anything else.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/what-is-a-system-image

But in the case the image is of the operating system running the miner which is a version of Linux.

In plainer words, an image is a snapshot of a systems storage media be it a hard disk, ssd, floppy disk, or in this case an SD card. 2 variants of an image are possible: a logical image which is compressed and a raw bit-for-bit image. A logical image is not easily used as evidence as it is only the currently used/accessible files. Much like a zip file. Either type of image can be applied to storage media to make a working copy of the original.

A raw image is legally admissible evidence IF it is done by legally recognized/bonded/whatever people/companies. It is a true 1:1 every-single-physical-bit copy of the drive - including to a fair extent much of the data that has been 'erased' at one time making it suitable for forensics to see exactly what is/was on the storage device.

Do you have an idea how much he mined with the two you know of?

I am using a copy of an image that wasn't the original on a new clean sd card. I can submit my original card as well if needed.

Okay, seeking a little education on this image thingy you guys keep talkin' 'bout.

I don't have that information offhand. I am sure I could get a pretty good idea based on the logs.

It appears he also mines with customer hardware on f2pool using an account called kusmet. At least those are the worker names. It has been confirmed that this is a bulgarian word meaning luck. Joshua Zipkin is of Bulgarian descent so this would make sense under the circumstances. The miners came preconfigured with all the logs still intact and pool settings on them. I have 2 of them and one I have left untouched for the purposes of forensic examination by lawyers and government officials interested in this.
