The Scamcoats are coming!
PSA: Avoid Josh Garza's latest scam - crypto *credit*/debit card that can be preloaded with bitcoin and comes with a convenient $100 annual fee

http://de.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/36druc/psa_avoid_josh_garzas_latest_scam_crypto/

So, I take Credit Card A and pay a $100 fee to get Credit Card B. Then I take Credit Card A again and purchase $100 worth of BTC somewhere and I put that on Credit Card B and I can spend that (minus purchase and other fees) just like using Credit Card A that I used to purchase Credit Card B and the BTC. Amazingly brilliant. The Industry Innovator strikes again!  Cheesy

I think everyone now knows to stay away from gaw.. Im staying away from anything that has gaw in the name. Anyone think Josh will see the inside of a prison cell?

It's not that I think. I'm sure of it. It's just the question of time. These things take long, but he will end up there eventually. He deserves this in the end...

A shadowy new "organization" calling itself Crypto Private Investor Group just announced its forming. This is a Josh Garza/GAW/Paycoin aligned group; although it purports to "greater worldwide adoption of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin". I wouldn't trust anything coming from this group.

Some of the more concerning quotes:

    -'Members of the CPIG stand with GAW founder, Josh Garza"

    -"greater worldwide adoption of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Paycoin and other... - as if the worthless shitcoin that is paycoin deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as bitcoin, let alone any other non-scam altcoin."

    -"To undo the negative impact, outcome and perception from circumstances like Mt. Gox and those that seek to undermine the category’s success through the use of highly sensationalized media covering the category based upon conjecture versus fact." >> these idiots obviously have been brainwashed by Josh Garza to believe that they were not, in fact, scammed, but that rather they were the victims of "sensationalized media" and "conjecture".

Cryptsy Owns ‘Hyper Staking’ Paycoin Prime Controller

During a community hangout organized by the Paycoin Foundation, a surprise announcement was made that one Prime Controller is being held by digital currency exchange Cryptsy. The transaction was also posted about on the Paycointalk forums. According to that post, it seems plausible that the Prime Controller was given to get Cryptsy to update to the new Paycoin wallet.

Interview: Former GAW Miners Employee Speaks Up

GAW Miners is a company that started out as a reputable and respected company in the bitcoin field, selling mining devices. They shipped quickly and prices were very reasonable, but it somehow resulted in a collapsed scam, with its CEO, Josh Garza, trying to cover up everything.

GAW Miners ran their own forum, HashTalk, where the company and other subjects were discussed. However, as GAW Miners slowly transitioned from a legit hardware seller to a cloud mining ponzi, many tactics were put in place to cover up the scheme.

And I thought everybody was doing everything about the issue. Investigations from SEC and others ongoing, friends and colleagues turning away from Homero because not wanting to go to jail with him etc... All there services lockout out and defunct, all development stopping, even paycoin is undergoing anti Homero changes  Wink There is a big investigation and he will go to jail sooner or later, it's just, you know, hard grindstone turns slowly...

Garza & Friends: Additional Emails Detailed

A cache of hundreds of thousands of emails leaked from the office of GAW Miners totalling 5.1 GB in size spanning the time period May 2014 through January 2015 detail the lengths Homero Joshua Garza has gone to in order to maintain his fraudulent business activities.

While Qntra has previously published articles specific to Garza himself, this article will focus on the people in the periphery, their communications with Garza and their eagerness to conduct business with him unwittingly or perhaps even choosing to ignore the obvious red flags in order to turn a nice dollar.

Still waiting on some solid info about authorities doing something. Cannot believe nobody does anything on this issue.

That's the real reason why Zencloud stopped his mining operation ... not the low BTC value , market conditions or high electricity price . Zen cloud stopped because GAW did not pay the electricity . Again it seems that GAW was not saying all to his customers .
