Topic: The Official MCXNOW - REALSOLID SCAM Thread - Please add to this if u scammed. (Read 13083 times)

people got the value of those mcx-shares back?

FYI, 2 years have passed.

rawx.io is the current mcxnow relaunch

I think it does speak highly, he gives clear warning and has a history of allowing deposits to withdraw at users will.  Yes its inconvenient, I think he is still a 1 man band but Ive known quite few exchanges now who failed users and the integrity of their balances.  (might not be their fault but still)

If I read it right the fees will continue after the website is renewed but thats down to the investor to judge.   I only ever owned a related token listed on cryptostocks, not sure who ran it even but he saw us all cashed out at a fair rate (long ago)

McxNOW is going down again, on Nov. 15th, for an unspecified period of time.  I was surprised that this happened once before... same descriptive!  Interesting.  I pulled out as soon as I saw the notice, several days ago.  Was sad to lose some value on my FEEs, but thankfully got out before FEEs crashed to under 0.02BTC (I sold out at around 0.028-0.029).  Guess we'll see what becomes of mcxNOW in the coming months.  If this is a repeating pattern, every year or two, that doesn't speak highly of the trustability of the site or it's operator(s).

I've used MCXNow since late spring...haven't used it in over a month but all was kosher last time I traded some BTC for Doge...never had any issues exchanging LTC for BTC earlier this year either. Sadly, I am unable to recover my Google authenticator and am unable to sign in due to this issue so I won't be doing much trading there unless I create a new account as we all know how friendly RS is when people lose their info etc. Fortunately, I never left a balance overnight on any exchange.

How many have been scammed? There's over 38,000 accounts on mcxnow. Or so he claims. Is everybody's money frozen and/or lost ?

Yes it's called scammeritis. He's had it for years.

Word is, that real solid is a scammer.   I dunno

Anybody know the current status of MCXNOW ? Nodes are offline. If you try to deposit, your coins will be in limbo. Apparently, trades are happening. Word is that RealSolid is sick?

Dox'ing does nothing. Look at all the scammers who have been dox'd and what has become of them? Two things, and one of them is Jack.

RS has and always be a dick and a scammer.

He does tend to run when the heat is on him though as the past indicates. 

So it looks like mcxNOW has finally disabled all new signups, no info posted anywhere to confirm this - but multiple IP addresses just gives a signup error now.

Realsolid aka Jason Annice got doxed hardcore lately...the writing is on the wall perhaps?

How is Real Solid still in the bitcoin community in 2014? Is this real life?

guys there a fundamantalists libertarian. I know one of them. to make it short: "everything is ok if not forced with a gun"

he's not a scammer he robin' hood now?

It's ok to steal if you had it out to buddies?

He did keep a couple hours' worth of the payouts, sure. That's all though. In fact, since then he's given out TONS of BTC (at least 20-30 that I'm personally aware of), which is far more than the fees he "stole."

Note steal is not a requirement of the above. 

next you are going to tel me that just keeping payouts and not paying them out to owners is not stealing either you have the same amount of coin as you did before.

I agree with most of what you said. I hate the way he flip-flops as well. The issue I have, though, is that when it comes down to it, the prices have always bounced back. He even said, when it was supposed to shut down for 2 months, that those who held on to their shares would be getting back more or less what they paid. What happened? Sure enough, they bounced back and anyone who had waited would have gotten back the full amount.

I'm more annoyed with v2.5 than anything. He said almost 2 months ago now that it was "completed" and that he was "just waiting until he gets a boner" and he'd release it. As of today's update, he says there is still a lot of work to go in to it and he's been working on other projects as well (often skipping v2.5 as he does it). It's this that is annoying.

But none of this is a scam. He never stole anyone's money. If people buy and sell fee shares, that's their own doing. He did not log into people's accounts to force buys/sales; people did that on their own. He hasn't stolen deposits.

People can't get mad because they invested into a site without doing due diligence first. RS has been doing this for many months. People who invested just because they said "OMG HES GIVING OUT MUNNEHS 0.001% OF TEH EXCHANGE MUST PASS MUNEH FASTUR!" are morons. Never invest in anything until you know who you are dealing with and what you're dealing with. Anything else is going to result in a loss.

tl;dr: quit being stupid and blaming others because you make bad decisions.

Look the site owner says if you buy shares now I will do A when auction comes. then he does B when auction comes. then once new shares are sold closes site. then partially reopens (trade shares only) and tells users site will not be back for months.  then opens site in 2 weeks.

Yes investing in shares is a risk. but flat out lies that manipulates share value is more than rude.

Fees were supposed to be paid every 6 hours last complete payout before shutdown was not paid. partial (~2hr) time after unpaid shares was not paid either.

Not paying out out shares s also more than rude.
