Topic: Virtual Mining Corporation SCAM REFUNDS NOT BEING SENT (Read 4895 times)
3 years later. If I wasn't scammed by this degenerate I would be bit rich.
For those that are not aware, Wood Law Firm is investigating VMC and AMC. They want to hear from those who have been negatively affected. If enough people contact them, then there is a chance a class-action could be brought forth.

Ok
I did it .
I have also just filed a complaint with the attorney general's office.

I have also just filed a complaint with the attorney general's office.
I'm also outside the US but I still filed a complaint with the attorney generals office and they sent me an actual letter - not that it did much but add another complaint to the list.
If anything it will galvanise the criminal fraud investigation into VMC and Ken and make it a better case.

I agree. When they have 17 complaints against them for fraud, the attorney general has to notice and do something.
Yeah,
But I'm outside U.S. so I think I can't do this that way
but like I read :

A long list of excuses on refunds from Ken - but all refunds have been sent (unless they haven't)
January 30, 2014, 02:25:51 AM
We have a back log in refunds and are processing those as fast as we can. If you have requested a refund from customer support then it is being worked on.
February 05, 2014, 01:11:34 AM »
That should have been processed, please contact customer service and tell them it has been 7 weeks.
February 05, 2014, 11:04:02 PM »
We had a little problem in December with BTC processing, so all Bitcoin refunds have to be checked, so that may be the hold up. I will look into why you refund has not be sent.
February 27, 2014, 07:13:29 PM »
Virtual Mining is currently processing and confirming pre-order refund requests.
March 10, 2014, 12:10:40 AM »
Refund to you ASAP.
March 11, 2014, 01:28:16 AM »
I have just hired a new customer service rep.
March 17, 2014, 03:57:11 PM »
Refunds will be processed in 2-4 weeks.
April 01, 2014, 07:29:34 PM »
Me:Ken, Given that refunds will never be processed, I'll take this deal to accept product from you instead of a refund.
Ken: I don't think so, we will just send you a refund.
April 07, 2014, 02:26:10 PM »
We will be issuing you a check soon.
April 22, 2014, 05:49:22 PM »
We are sending out your check today.
April 22, 2014, 06:05:53 PM »
@Magzy We are starting today to issue refunds including your check today.
Edit: @Magzy In getting your check ready, we found in our records that we have already issued our check number 123 on 2/17/14 to you. That check has not cleared our bank, so we are put a stop payment on that check and re-issuing another check to you.
from me: April 23, 2014, 12:07:29 AM
No more false promises please.
This needs to be sent with a tracking number and a signature - I am happy to pay for this additional cost. Deduct it from the $769
OR the BTC address above I will then go through my post history and clean up any posts accusing VMC of scams et-al

It has already been mailed today.

No Response fron Ken
4-22 refund still not received after a jan 12th cancel. As it turns out Ken has shipped 2 dozen or so re branded incomplete hashfast reject boards. He still refuses to have someone answer the phone and answer pissed off customers questions. The fact that VMC has any traction in the community is a testament to how full of scamming con artist the bitcoin community really is giving everyone a bad name. Money and greed does crazy things to people. I do believe that Ken will end up in jail as he is stealing money and lying to alleged customers about refunding their money furthering the charges mounting up against him. It is really sad in many ways that poor old man will get raped hard in prison even if its federal.
Ouch 
I had no idea VMC managed to have a decent number of customers.
Per chance, did any of you buy from VMC because someone told you it was going to ship? If so, who?
I personally bought because VMC themselves promised a shipping date of Nov2013I had no idea VMC managed to have a decent number of customers.
Per chance, did any of you buy from VMC because someone told you it was going to ship? If so, who?
And at that time i did not see anything indicating a scam.
Edit: I ordered at July2013
I myself have lost over $4k with these scammers.
I have asked for a refund on January 21st and still there is not even a single reply from them!

These sorts of scams are kept going to make them appear legitimate.
they will even send out products to one or 2 people that will pretend to be customers.
Those poor shareholders on Active Mining who parted with their money - I am sorry for their loss of money that they will never see again.

I ordered last december.
Asked for a refund 1 day later (after discovering december delivery date wasn't coming)
4 months later and around 100 messages to Kenneth slauther I have yet to get that refund.
I contacted the office of the attourney general in jefferson county MO - got a letter back from them and the are actively pursuing / investigating him.

I have also just filed a complaint with the attorney general's office. Wonder how long Mr. Slaughter thinks he can keep this charade going.
Pretty obvious from the start that this was going to be a scam.
For everyone who like to start case in the court,feel free to contact us.
