Did hashking ever specifically say the lower interest rate accounts weren't exposed to Pirate? He said they were used for other borrowers, which could include Pirate. I did see it was asked a couple times in his thread but he never answered, not publicly anyway, that I can see.

1.00% Weekly -- Guaranteed Fully Insured no lock in

1.25% Weekly -- Guaranteed Fully Insured 8 week lock in

3.30% Weekly -- Direct BTCST Pass Through 50% Insurance 1 week lock in (CLOSED)

If you click the last link, you will se he promised insurance was in a wallet, definately not at pirate, since he was insuring against pirate default.

I haven't dig thru his entire thread, but what about the part where he said INSURED and withdraw within 24 hrs?
HK clearly didn't live up to that.

I agree, but more evidence of deceit never hurt. Would certainly expedite things. The insurance is iffy, because the terms of insurance were never clearly stated, if it was backed by mining then it's natural it will take a while, if people weren't happy with that they should have pushed for more clear terms/timeline of repayment of insured funds.

I'm pissed off. Seriously, I was getting 1,25% while my funds were exposed to pirate? Are you fucking kidding me? I could have gotten 7% weekly on those same funds if I wanted, with exactly the same risks. And here I thought I was diversifying my investments...

how does that make you feel? This scum bag was using your money which was supposed to be for a low risk investment, turning around and putting it into an extremely high risk investment and making 5.5% interest off of you. That right there my friend is a blatant flat out scam.

hes a scumbag, a liar and a scammer - now where is the tag?

free market at its best

Kluge is an unemployed do-nothing with debts up the wazoo. Not the best reference.

Nope. But Kluge was recommending him, there goes any trust around here.

The insurance will pay back over 3 (30?) years. Caveat Emptor, indeed.

Since I have seen evidence that the mining farm that was used to back the insurance exists, it doesn't appear to me that any scam took place. Next time, invest in programs where the insurance pays out faster.

Now we wait; I doubt he'll stick around. Same stalling tactics as pirate.

I want to add that I do not understand the compulsive nature of people to address a binary scammer/non-scammer indicator on everyone.

He didn't hold his end of the bargain but there are several ways he can handle it now all with different relative fairness ratings. For me, giving him a scammer rating serves no purpose whatsoever.

Who/what backed the "insurance"? Did he ever say?

Lending to pirate was a legal option?!, but the hard part is that he he guaranteed the investment (but didn't do it....).

What did u believe a Pirate Pass Throu was for?

It wasn't supposed to be a PPT though.

"The funds for the deposits will be used for lending out to other borrowers, investing in more mining equipment, bitcoin projects and other investments offered on the forum. ... All my depositers funds are 100% guaranteed and will not lose any funds due to any defaults unless stated otherwise."

The funds that provided this "100% guarantee" were actually "invested" with Pirate. Thus the claim that they will not lose any funds due to default was fraudulent. Pirate defaulted. The depositors lost funds.
