Topic: SCAMMER: Cablepair (Tom) from BTCFPGA.com/bitcoinasic.net - page 12. (Read 24133 times)

I hope that shows my integrity.  Believe me it would have been far easier to distance myself from bASIC and just leave the mess for Tom (and his customers).

If that's Tom's claim, then there's no reason at all not to label BitcoinASIC.net a fraud.

Would guess the website was "hacked" - in the same way Tom's account here was "hacked".

theymos, we need a response on this.  There is no doubt whatsoever now that BitcoinASIC.net is using the name of Can Electric without the permission of its owners and that Can Electric has nothing to do with Ehasher or other aspects of bASIC's re-branding.

Good grief.

It's now been confirmed by Ari Asmar - owner of the real Can Electric - that they have no association with the re-branded bASIC.  A scammer tag needs to be applied right now, IMO.

It's sad that he won't be clear about what is going on. He may have spent the money on misc. business functions and can't refund it. Think about what the charge backs cost. That's purely speculation of course. Obviously he didn't set out to scam people and he probably doesn't have a dime in his pocket for all the time and effort he has put into this whole thing. He probably got screwed by someone promising him chips.

The whole thing is very sad. But he does deserve a tag for sure. People have paid money and not been delivered to or refunded.

No-Refunds is nowadays 100% totally accepted operating policy with enthusiastic support from core developers and The Bitcoin Foundation as well as huge majority of community. I have not heard one even slightly critical voice against this from anybody in any kind of position of authority, only from a couple of trolls.

"No Refunds - your funds are gone. Refunds therefore are impossible." is totally acceptable and the new norm or doing business.

Nobody should be given scammer tags for operating according to an 100% totally accepted policy and any old scammer tags given out for breaking a rule that nowadays does not exist should be lifted. Why wear scammer tags for something that is nowadays totally accepted and others are doing it out there in wide open?
