I do not understand why none of you have reported anything before. Absurd.

Impossible,he made a periodic payment to me on Sun Dec 22nd and asked for a loan extension the day after. Both using the same email address.

I still hope this is all a misunderstanding and he's just AWOL for new years, but I'm beginning to feel increasingly naive about that though.

Unfortunately I have to add to this - 20btc for KnC miners, nothing received for over a month. This was prior to any of these scam allegations and I send funds to the public wallet on his account.

More fool me, perhaps ... but isn't that what a trust rating is supposed to be about?

In my opinion he deleted all his posts from December to come on at a later date and say last time I posted was November, my account was hacked blah blah.

He has taken lots of big loans, I would assume someone has his contact info and a way to get ahold of him besides this site.

Projects owed me 51.4 BTC and he loaned an additional 14.5 BTC for the week 23 - -> 30 Dec.

Has anyone heard ANYTHING from him? Projects seemed so trustworthy (I had been dealing with him for a year now). Is this another long con? Fuck this ...

In the event his account was so called hacked, why would someone remove all his bump posts in his buying thread from the month of December? He would be trying to get as many btc from people as possible not deleting posts hurting his chance of getting more btc. It wasn't hacked and he needs to fix this mess

I now believe he is a scammer, too.

We had a deal about some KnC-Miner for 24.000,- €.

I sent him the money (BTC) and he said he shipped the units.
But the only thing that arrived is a puppet!

He told me the package has beend swaped.

He wont send me a proof of the shipping!


scamming asshole!

I think it's highly unlikely that Projects is trying to scam anyone. For the last year or so he has been a solid member of the community. I have personally bought and sold bitcoin from him in the past with no problems whatsoever.

On the other hand his account may have been hacked. Here's hoping that it all gets resolved.

I think Projects 100% confirmed scammer as they already scammed 2 peoples and also they keep sending private messages to all forum peoples whose looking selling BTC and they asking send them all BTCs first and Never accept escrow

they also send me email as below

Quote from: Projects on December 28, 2013, 06:23:57 PM
Hi I can buy 3 btc for mtgox rate with moneygram ill pay fees check my feedback I'm a trusted trader here I'd need you to send first


then I replied and asked that we can use escrow for safe both parties and they replied as below again

December 28, 2013, 07:00:05 PM »

Sorry I never use escrow and I can't do multiple trades fees are so expensive that way check all the trades I've done and I always receive the btc first

Extream Caution Never send any money FIRST to "Projects" until resolved all scam cases here

this guy projects MUST got removed all positive ratings and got Negative ratings with RED color otherwise they can easily scam many new peoples as they ratings still in green color

Holdaaja: 5 bitcoins have left that account today and  I haven't received any messages, at the very least this trade has been handled poorly regardless of what's going on in his life. If he can make time to move coins around he can make time to send me boa or btc.


sorry if i've missed this but are you sure it is not a web/shared wallet? many web wallets shuffle funds around from addresses without necessarily moving it from the account

Honestly man, I don't think Projects is out to scam you. He probably just got slammed with real-life stuff and we'll eventually follow through with his end of the deal. Nevertheless, I've given him a negative rating which I'll remove once this issue is settled.

I can forward any pms to any moderator or such on here confirm that is the btc address he provided me. I asked for my btc back and was told he couldn't send them back as he was not at home on his computer, after looking through his blockchain and seeing btc leave it was obviously all a lie too.

Maybe he is using phone and doesn't have 4,5btc on his phone?

What happened: On December 28th I sent user projects 4.5 btc for boa. I have never received any boa funds and have asked for my btc back and haven't received that either. I feel I have given him a fair amount of time to make this right, all time frames he has given me for taking care of this have been missed
