They also claimed to have had two successful deals with each other, no one wants to trade with BuddyIsreal as he doesnt want to use escrow, look at his trust,  and Gismo28 doesnt want to show proof of the transactions, how much would it cost for you to look into their bitcoin addresses?

What about this one MidasRezerv.com? Thanks! They launched MRCoin, which is claimed to be decentralized distributed 100% Gold backed digital token platform designed to enhance investments, trading, and payments of physical gold in its digital equivalent.

I would check the old site if I was going to set up a business that could be targeted by scammers or people trying to uncover something.
I don't personally reccomend any sites for investment, however bitgold does seem legitimate, and I would if I wanted to get into gold trading.

That why iam not trade in bitgold
Iam very scared after i see that chace

Are bitgold safe for trade,,?

Emm only question,, are you ceck old chace before you buy domain,,?

I added the tip jar in the OP. Here it is: 1Atq2eKKAC9HR6SwxDDaPBAtFaNrQF7rRc
If you need anything else please put it here and I will investigate for you!

Good job in finding that cache. However I purchase domains from people all the time, and I doubt people link the new domain owner with the old one. This COULD be evidence however the bitcoin forum does MANY trades and selling, as bitcoin is a currency, so I wouldn't call this linkable evidence unless someone proves that the owner of the old site and new site are the same.
This was also in 2005, before bitcoin.

Wow. Thanks for your in depth investigation. You should add your address for a tip jar in the thread!

Investigation requested by tarsua.
I don't know the purpose of why I was requested this. If there is any more evidence please PM me so I can add to the list
BuddyIsrael
Addresses:
1EdgXM2gbYedANE8yaZ1kC5QtXQHWNMSPC
1GAGfamAuSFwcrrYscQ2VrUhPEfHWPMXHM
Speaks german
Almost all of his posts are buying or selling something in marketplace
Gismo28
Addresses:
12NUDU4oKg2kjCuEqJiFNziQJ6mjM4GdoU
ALSO speaks german
MANY of his posts are in marketplace

It is possible that they are the same person. there are 2 pieces of evidence that link them together
I could do a thorough investigation of the addresses and see if there is anything linking them together, but this would cost a fee (it takes quite a long time)

They also have left trust rating for each-other:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=404902

People that have alts often leave trust for each other to help them out with their business (whether it be scamming or genuine business).
This looks like a very direct connection here. I would say I am 65% sure they are connected, 100% when I connect their addresses, for example there is apparently a transaction between them, if that is true (and I find the reference) that means they are the same person.

The password for BOTH of them have been changed recently as well, which could link each of them.

Some more information found from tarsua
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/is-this-enough-proof-editconfirmed-1073492
Conclusion: Nothing directly links them together, however it is very probable
Evidence: Both german and both posts are in the marketplace buying the same things, left trust for eachother

l know that, it's a new trading platform
how about old web ,,? He is run ponzi scheme look this https://web.archive.org/web/20050403034103/http://www.bitgold.com/

Of course Quickseller, however my job is not to list scams in the past, but to find new ones and possibly connect them to the past to avoid anything further.
I just did an investigation possibly listing 2 people together at a persons request I will release in the next post

I would say that James Volpe should be listed as a notable scammer 

Scrypt.cc is quite long known (I have heard about it a while ago).
Looking at the website now, it looks awful. Not a modern design and it is hard to navigate. Site design is very simple, and there are some small css errors and little things that should have been fixed.
The site is a cloud mining website, high are notorious for being ponzi schemes (you don't need to prove you actually own the khs so it is easy).
If anyone can come forward and confirm payments (Although they probably wouldn't have their site up if they stopped paying) that would be good for confirmation.
The forum button does not link to any forum, it just redirects to the main page (index.php). It originally links to /forums/index.php however it looks like this has never been set up and therefore redirects.
All of the server status indicates state offline, so maybe they just stopped paying??? They claim 24/7, but the servers are offline so that might not be true.
Lastly, I recommend against any mining site. There are very few people that are making a profit off of mining these days due to the increased difficulty. You probably won't get your money back even if they are legitimate.
I myself would NOT invest in this site, and do not plan to.
There is a chance of this being a scam.

Can you check scrypt.cc? It seems legit but some people say its shady.

I have edited the OP, and as I find out more and more information and uncover scams I will update it in the little table I have made right now. I hope to prevent and scams and scammers, and stop them in their tracks.
If this service is used a lot, I will set up a donation jar.

PM me some details, I will do a basic check, if I have to go in much deeper, it may cost you but as long as its not a huge investigation I will do it for free for the community

Doing a very quick lookover of the site, it does not look like a ponzi. There is nothing paying you interest, it is simply a gold transaction website where you can hold and pay for gold (and trade between currencies).
The site design is VERY professional, something that could be on a million dollar website.
I cannot predict if its a scam or not, however the site looks very promosing. Especially with the espensive ssl certificate they have here:

I would personally use this website.

Most is a scam.
There are some games that are not scams, and are simply for gambling. Providing those games don't run away, I won't call them a scam.
You can check and search the thread for previous scams in the future.

Ok, i have a job for you, I want you to prove that two accounts are related, real solid proof only, how much will it cost or will you do it for free?

Can you review bitgold.com ,,?
Trading platform with more great news but the domain ever use to ponzi investmen

Pretty much everything in the investor based games is a scam, no way around it. If you could compile a list of other scams you have found, it would be very useful.
