yea so GZ could see that he had a criminal record because he was tall
and this means he can shoot him.
and this means he can shoot him.
TM thought that his height advantage made it OK to attack GZ, because the Neighborhood Watch captain 'dissed' him by asking why he was wondering around a burglary-prone street at night, in the rain.
Poor, innocent, peaceful, young TM didn't realize that Sam Colt made all men equal regardless of height. So he got a Darwin Award.
Moral of the story is 'don't try to beat people up in public just because they ask you a question you consider disrespectful.'

TM was no longer innocent the moment he bashed GZ head on the sidewalk.
The question of racism in no way changes the above fact.
Yeah, the race stuff got added by the media, the situation had nothing to do with it imo.

The young thug you called a kid was 17 years old, had a criminal record, and was pretty tall.
and this means he can shoot him.
He walked up and capped a kid in a old folks community here in Florida and walked on the charges saying he felt threatened.
He did not "walk on the charges", he has been charged with second-degree murder and is awaiting trial.
After uproar yes, that is true.

Exactly, bruno was just pointing out irony in this that it only made the news due to skin tone I think. It was only a big deal in the news due to him walking away on the charges due to stand your ground laws in Florida.
That is correct. I apology for any confusion.

He walked up and capped a kid in a old folks community here in Florida and walked on the charges saying he felt threatened. And in the current law if you feel threatened you can "defend" yourself. Texas has similar laws, some states dont mind you killing in public as long as you have a good reason. (Although I think after several months of parades and outage Zimmerman did end up getting arrested.)
You are stretching the definition of kid to the breaking point.
The young thug you called a kid was 17 years old, had a criminal record, and was pretty tall and black.
But then he learned not to bring a bad attitude to a gun fight with the heroic neighborhood watch captain who was white!
Added a Touch of Gray.

White, Black, Purple, Brown, Or Yellow with Green dots...
If zimmerman murdered martin, then he should go to jail. If he killed him in self-defense, then he should not go to jail. How does skin-color change any of it?

From the sounds of it, my money is on trendon walking away from this unscathed...
Only if he has been training his "walk while looking over your shoulder" skills...
Surely George Zimmerman doesn't have a cousin in Texas, or does he?
I don't know who George Zimmerman is.
What I know is: It's a small world...

So what's happening with this, Phin?
A conversation did take place this morning with Trendon's previous employer. Look forward to a post/thread as to what that conversation consisted of once he finishes penning it. The call was not initiated by me, but by some other member on this board.
The reason for posting this is because a couple individuals have inquired info on this topic via PM.
~Bruno K~
So what's happening with this, Phin?
I have passed the information to a person who PM'ed me. Information that has been posted before on this forum, as well as above. I expect a call will probably be made today.
Hope this reply addresses your question, repentance.
Later, bud.
~Bruno K~
So what's happening with this, Phin?
This guy could make the call: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/donshrents-66121 Remember, he's the one who called Trendon's dad.
Also, Zach NakaskaLinkedin worked for the same guy, and he's one of TS's partners.
~Bruno K~
Also, Zach Nakaska
~Bruno K~
I think that's a bad idea given that he also talked about things such as involving Trendon's wife's ex-husband and stuff.
Phin, it's obvious that the former employer concerned is The Lending Partners (no surprise there). As they're a legitimate business, they're probably not going to want to get involved in any kind of vigilante justice so you really need to make sure that whoever talks to them can keep it calm and rational.
Quote
Probably information on him that would lead to a successful legal action against him.
Has anyone even tried consulting a US lawyer about possible causes of action against Trendon? Tried having him served at his father's address? While any information The Lending Partners can provide is obviously useful in terms of background stuff, it's not relevant to the facts of Trendon's activities within this community. It might push authorities to regard him as a serial fraudster, though. One question to ask The Lending Partners is whether they ever considered taking legal action against Trendon and why they decided not to ( does he keep himself "judgement-proof", for instance).
You are correct. The contact person's initials are TP and the last four digits of the phone number is 1900. Again, from the tone of the email, I'm sure this guy would be most helpful.
Glad I could help in this. Maybe now my ignores will go down one tick.

It might also be worth asking whether there was any indication that either Ryland Shavers or Zach Nakaska were involved in Trendon's sketchiness.

No reason for a screenshot, since that is just about as easy to fake as a copy/paste. The only way you could prove it is by letting someone access your email account. That way, that person would only need to trust Yahoo. That being said, I highly doubt that this is something that needs that kind of assurance, so just post it.
I don't own photoshop and don't even know how to superimpose an image onto another, but I can post a screenshot that should prove that it's real. It'll be here in a couple minutes.
~Bruno K~
I was just going to pen that same exact thing. Upon seeing it, Maged, if you desire to see the larger crop showing all the relative information, please let me know and I'll PM it to you.
That is the entire text, sans the name, phone numbers, address of company, etc. From the email, it appears he's willing to share any info he has to anybody who would listen. I suggest only one individual to contact him who's capable of gleaning more info from him and sharing the conversation with us, within reason of course.
~Bruno K~
What is our goal at this point? What information are we trying to gain?
I'm going to need a consus as to which individual is must suited and going to follow through with the call. I'm also ready to show a larger screenshot of the email to the right person. Maged?
~Bruno K~
~Bruno K~
Either Maged or you would be great to call him. I'm not in the States now so sadly I can't volunteer.
I'm going to need a consus as to which individual is must suited and going to follow through with the call. I'm also ready to show a larger screenshot of the email to the right person. Maged?

Again, I don't see the point. I have no reason to doubt that the email is real.~Bruno K~
The offer was more in line with showing the complete contact information, and not necessarily proving it's real.
~Bruno K~
I just searched this forum and ran across a post(s) discussing the company. The only question I have is why he contacted me. The email address he sent from matches his. I guess I can do an email tracking thingy on yahoo to see if it came from that source or if somebody else sent the email to me, somehow masking/using that guys email address. I'm not sure how that's done, but believe it's possible.
~Bruno K~
EDIT: The IP it was sent from is located in China Spring, TX. The business is in Plano, TX.

Maged has my vote, hes already online.
Actually, the Maged suggestion was in reference to the providing of the larger screenshot and not the call, but whatever.
I, personal don't have an answer to your question, Goat, but I'm sure somebody else may.
~Bruno K~
I trust Phinnaeus to make the call, but did you even have anything invested or just helping the community out as a whole?
I wish I could make the call, but in this case any expected results would fall short, therefore somebody else is needed.

It might be worth whoever contacts the former employer passing on the contact details of the guy from the SEC who was looking into pirate's ponzi. It couldn't hurt for investigators to be aware that he's acted fraudulently in the past.
From the sounds of it, my money is on trendon walking away from this unscathed... I certainly hope not, but unless someone follows thru, I have a feeling this will end up being in a "will get to later" file...

Yep, just C&P it with information redacted (you can post that later if it seems appropriate). A screenshot's not more authentic proof and I think you're trusted enough around here that people are going to accept your word if you say you haven't altered anything significant.
Just cut+paste it while removing phone numbers and email addresses, if anybody wants it PM it to them so it doesn't get a thousand interweb troll calls and he just gets a new number. Not like a screencap is any proof whatsoever anyways

I've received an email from a former employer of Trendon who goes into detail of what type of character he is. The sender did offer up a phone number to call him and didn't ask of me to keep the correspondence confidential. It was sent to my bitcoin100 yahoo address (.com).
Before I post it, I want to make sure that that's the correct thing to do. Instead of copy and pasting the content, I would rather take a screenshot of it, thus showing that it's authentic. I can send the image to a mod or admin first and let them post it after seeing it, if that's a better option.
Please advise me my next course of action.

I for one would sure like some info on his lawyer, because the Government won't say shit after all complaints are filled, other than it's being 'looked into' and for a Civil Claim, I have to throw more good money after bad to hire someone to track him down and serve him papers in person.
Hopefully the Government can hang a large enough felony on him that he ends up some big black guy's bitch and I can kiss my BTC away with less regret.

I don't think he has a lawyer.
But you say the Govt will say something after all complaints are filled? When do you expect that to be?
Weren't you the one spearheading a legal case against pirate to recover funds? Oh right you are broke that's why lol
not shocked
Says the guy who sent the co-owner of GPUMAX 40,000 BTC as an investment that supposedly returns 7% per week. LOL!
This is the most non-update update I could have imagined.

Dear User,
We regret to inform you that GPUMAX will be permanently closing on October 31st, 2012.
While we strongly believe in Bitcoin's continued success, our vision has always been to provide our users with the greatest opportunities to utilize their GPU processing power. Creating a mining marketplace was meant to be the first of many such opportunities, however, due to the events of recent months, we feel that the best course of action is to cease all operations.
Thank you for participating in our beta.
