Here it is:

Lawyer: Hello mr. Anice, how can i help you?
Me: Good afternoon, mr. lawyer. I am here because i made a online purchase and the item wasn't shipped to me.
Lawyer: Very well, what was it and how much was the cost of the purchase?
Me: I bought some computer hardware for the amount of... the equivalent to 650 euros.
Lawyer: Ok, have you pressed charges at the police.
Me: No, i have not yet.
Lawyer: Please do, it is easier to me to process an official complain. I will need a proof of purchase.
Me: (pause) Well, that's more complicated, i paid with Bitcoin, wich is a online currency.
Lawyer: (pauses and smiles) You too? Some clients had the same problems. How many Bitcoins?
Me: 200 Bitcoins.
Lawyer: Can you identify, or provide the name, address other information on the other party?
Me: Yes, that information had been provided to me by other people who were fooled by the same person.
Lawyer: Ok, I will need the transaction ID of you purchase, and an official complain at the police. It should move effortless from that point.
Me: (playing dumb) I'm sorry, transaction ID?
Lawyer: That is a code that proves you made the transfer. That and the official claim will solve your problem.


After some additional chat, he said that although Bitcoins aren't worth anything, the fact is 2 parties decided to make a trade.
I could have bought his hardware with bananas. If both parties accept that, i just have so send him the bananas and he has to send me the hardware.
Funny, i think this is going to work! Monday i'll press charges at the police and talk to my lawyer again

My apologies to Anice if my initial assumptions about his identity were incorrect.  I still don't buying that much hardware from someone who just got out of newbie status was a good of an idea though.

Am not
Will pay my lender i a few more days.

BTW, i had a nice chat with my lawyer, will post it tomorrow

I would be pretty surprised at this point if AniceInovation was Dexter. For one, they post nothing alike. Two, Anice seems to have provided znort with ID that doesn't match what we know about Dexter. Three, Dexter was too stupid to even use a basic proxy to keep his IP separate from Powercoiner's, but Anice's doesn't match and he's been around here 8 times longer than Dexter/Powercoiner. Either Anice is an absolutely incredible scammer who's managed to create two new accounts with the intention of sacrificing them, while at the same time selling things using the Dexter ID and mailing them with an assumed identity in order to frame Sebastian Gussen, or they are actually two separate people.

I have talked with a communications officer at HSBC regarding this fraud. HSBC will provide all the necessary details to the police.

Right now I'm laughing Sebastian could go to jail for this. What a fucking idiot. Dexter/Sebastian, send me a PM or email if you want to settle this. Is Raphaela Frese your wife or just a business partner. I contacted her and explained this. You can tell Manfred by yourself or should I? I think they will be interested to hear that they are part of a company which has committed a fraud.

I just came home from the police station. And police report has been filed. Right now I'm answering an email from HK police regarding this fraud and filing a repot there. Good luck Sebastian Gussen! You will need it.

Sebastian, if it's too much trouble (as it seems) shipping that hardware, I can always come over? Just tell me when you have time. I like medium roast coffee.


Turbor, you rent that stuff?

Haha... Well, I just had the "Honey, I just got scammed out of $450 of our money." talk. Needless to say that could have went better. Looks like I'll be mining with just my 6870 and no dedicated rig for awhile. Seems a waste when I spent 2 days trying to explain BTC and why it was a good idea to invest in a rig.

Hopefully we see our money back, it would make my life easier.

As senbonzakura said, I won't be able to release the IP address for about 2 weeks in this case. The reason is because I don't see enough evidence to expedite the investigation.

 

@ turbor

... Du bist ein gefährlicher Zeitgenosse 

The problem with People like this asshat is that they always get away with what they do. At least in Germany. The only way to teach such persons a lesson is to visit them at home for a nice little chat... he doesn't even have to understand your language if you bring your friends with you

@ Dexter: Sei froh, dass du nicht mich beschissen hast du Hund !

It's not worth the hassle... people should learn from this. If someone refuses a free escrow he can't be trusted !

 

Also, could anyone else who paid Gussen by wire transfer PM me? Thanks

Does anyone here know how to pull up a public court case in Germany? My lack of any knowledge of German is making it really tough for me to try.

It's from 08/04/2009, and is case AZ 322 Js 261/09. It was filed in Amtsgericht 59821 Arnsberg, Eichholzstrasse 10.

It is a previous fraud conviction against Mr. Gussen (Dexter).


For anyone else who's interested, I was holding off on giving out his home address in order to give Sebastian a chance to contact people and return there money, but it doesn't seem like it's going to happen.

Sebastian Gussen
Breitewege 14
59505 Bad Sassendorf
Germany

I've also seen Breitewege 12 listed for him, which from google maps appears the be the house next door to his shop.

He's run several businesses in the past, including one that imported spas from Asia. That would be the reason he has the HSBC bank account in Hong Kong that he had MXRider and myself use to transfer funds into. I'm not sure on the laws in Germany, but I will be looking into retaining a lawyer and contacting the district prosecutor to see if it is possible to file charges for international wire fraud. I honestly don't ever expect him to ever send me my money, but maybe I can hold out some thing hope that if he's a repeat offender he could actually face some jail time.

He must think that he is deleting critical evidence. Many of his actions are irrational. Now he is busted and probably has read these posts and still doesn't want to settle this. Some of us are smarter than the others.

Sebastian has also moved his bitcoins around more than 20 times. That doesn't help him either but he still does it

I've contacted his possible wife/girlfriend and waiting for an answer. Fulepp you can also file criminal charges against him. Do it in your local police office and they will forward it to germany.

Everyone who lives in EU can file criminal charges. We can also go there and drink a cup of coffee with sebastian while we decide how he is going to pay us back.

Good work guys!

Congratulation for the work what you put into this.

I still don't have the video cards what was promised by this guy. To prove the scam I am more than happy to provide every pm what I exchanged regards to this business.

What good would give to dexter to delete the pictures? I did not get that

Yep, deleting them. Did he really think we don't have them saved. What a scumbag. Looks like he won't go down without a fight.

Powercoiner/Dexter/Sebastian is deleting images, so here's some backups.

imgur.com/a/Ud5Br

Obviously not really proof, but I like how Powercoiner posted images to imageshack and named them videocards1, videocards2, videocards3h, etc and Dexter uploaded images to imageshack and named them miner1, miner3d, side1s, etc. Habits die hard even when you're lying about your identity.

LOL i love this idea.

He had a post up offering rig hosting services, and apparently some people have actually visited his home to see his air conditioned hosting site. I'm trying to get more details, but it's quite possible people on this forum have actually seen the cards that Dexter used to scam all of us.


MXRider - I was think about giving him until the end of the day today to at least respond and begin to sort this mess out. I've already provided him an address to repay me. I hope he takes me up on it, I really just want this over. If he doesn't reply, I'll also file a police report along with a complaint against his business to the town council. I'm also considering calling up the priest at his local church and seeing if he might say a public prayer for Sebastian's soul at the next mass.

Can you PM me the link of the other scams? Thanks
