Calm down, give Kevlar some time to work his magic ;)
[/quote]My calm has all gone i’m afraid. I will continue to work with Kevlar and the community to build this legal case, i will assist in every way i can. Outside of that the gloves are now off for me - I’m going to Ireland

Ok, please all calm down and let Kevlar do what he does best and provide a structured analysis.
Also, I understand that feelings are running high, but as there is now a very real possibility of a legal route, any posts which threatens, [i]or appears to threaten[/i] any action which might be deemed illegal WILL be edited. This is for the protection of the forum and it’s admins.

Transaction tree seems to tell a different story:

So, all funds ended up on exchange?
[/quote]Looks like it - or basically a large enough processor.
Checklist of things needed for Garda file:
1. Copy of Posts regarding project/promises.
2. Timeline of events.
3. PM’s - email correspondance.
4. Cache of the ScryptCloud website.
5. Copy of all transactions.I’m not sure, but EU-wide laws might have been triggered by the multi-national nature of this. There might be multiple venues for this to proceed legally. I would suggest getting in touch with a solicitor/lawyer based in Ireland that understands fraud related legal hoops. With enough of a docket, the Garda may simply begin a brief investigation that ends with a trial. From then, a solicitor can probably act as a middle-person for the legal hoopla with regards to assets seizure and garnishment.
Good luck all.

Anyway who is this guy. Does anyone know it is a he and not a she and where in the world is this person.
[/quote]i know exactly who he is and where he lives
[/quote]You got on to my facebook… you think you know where I live :)
[/quote]Do you honestly think i found out everything about you from your facebook page, which you seemingly have removed? get real (I’ve got an offline copy of the entire page saved anyway)!
Ill tell you what i will do - i will build a website tomorrow nicely laying out everything i know about you with all your personal details on it. Then you will know exactly what i know about you and so will everyone else. I will also put a forum on it where everyone can post all the details related to your fraud, which can then be given to the police and also serve as an official record of your disgusting crime and abuse of trust that members of this community have given you.
I will then make sure that every single person in the town you live in know you are a thief and a cheat. A nice flyer with your picture and a link to the website i have built will be pushed through every single door in your town - i don’t care how much it costs me.
I will haunt you every single day of your miserable life until you either refund everyone or go to prison - You WILL NOT get away with this.
I don’t care of the consequences to myself, someone has to make a stand against people like you or you will continue to get away it. A line has been drawn
[/quote] Right on bro! I wish i was with you +1 repHe almost got me aswell…

[/quote]Not cool.
You just blew it.
Even if you lied about that even, there was an opportunity for you to say “oh, about that. I wasn’t upfront. I’ll PM you my actual info.”
Now? Now you’re just dicking with people. You will be given no quarter.

Or the reality that a FaceBook page is never actually deleted, and anything ever put on it is just a subpoena away for law enforcement.
As for the rest, hold off. Let the law work while it’s around.

guess i must have missed something big. I will give +1 to Kevlar for his amazing effort towards helping resolve this issue. Your commitment to the community never ceases to amaze me.
Hopefully a satisfactory end will come of this, and everyone will get back what they lost.

PM Sent Kevlar, just confirmed it was a scam from the start :(
Such a waste.

[/quote] +1 for Kevlar, and I do agree with the protection of the site and admins. I say that Feathercoin forums should no longer let some one sell stuff like this on the forums, Posts like FTCLovers selling something like scryptcloud mining or anything like this should be removed right away. It’s to easy for people to come to these forums and post scams like this, and then brings drama to our forums. -

1. communicate through a VPN based in ireland.
2. find some pictures of some random irish fellow and make a fake facebook page with those pictures.
3. communicate through that fake facebook page with that person’s real address.
4. photoshop receipts etc to that random poor irish fellow’s name and that random fellow wouldnt even know it!
5. be located halfway across the world and we wouldnt even know it![/quote]
This is quite likely the case.
Surely the person responsible is not dumb enough to leave his/her own details public on the domain whois. Whoever it is registered to will no doubt have a shock if they ever find out.
While this is a right old mess, the next steps should be rational, clinical and legal. Anything other will harm the case against the person(s) responsible.

I don’t really think that it’s a good idea to support collective punishment of any kind. Removing anything that looks remotely like a scam that someone tried in the past will definitely hurt the honest merchants. Where would the line be drawn? This whole situation is awful for all involved and hope everyone gets paid back, but I think it could end up being worse for CloudScrypt. Just because of the names being similar he will have to deal with the stigma. I hope all goes well; I’ll be monitoring… -

Now I know tempers are running high but I want to call for all members to keep a level head. I hope everyone gets their money back through the legal courts. Dont do anything illegal. I want to point out that if this man is an experienced scamer he could:1. communicate through a VPN based in ireland.
2. find some pictures of some random irish fellow and make a fake facebook page with those pictures.
3. communicate through that fake facebook page with that person’s real address.
4. photoshop receipts etc to that random poor irish fellow’s name and that random fellow wouldnt even know it!
5. be located halfway across the world and we wouldnt even know it!Remember, this could be identity theft as well as wirefraud…
[/quote]I’m very confident in this situation this is not the case. He is not experienced in anything like this. Experienced scamers would have just vanished for a start. You only have to look a little deeper as the operation to see he hasn’t got a clue

Can i make a suggestion to admin please that this thread is locked so people post in the other one?
or the other is locked so people post in this one?
seems we have two threads going about the same thing. would it not be better to lock one and merge the relevant posts into the other so its all in the right place or at least in one place?
Will make researching things easier for sure
-
Well, I don’t have a clue anymore either.
The story: FTClover figured he can build rigs, set up a nice site, cashed in on a nice load of Bitcoins, and then…
- He purchased hardware, but the wrong kind of cpu’s, some of those are the right kind now, and some rigs are running?
- Then lost his phone with the remainder of the Bitcoins on it, so no way of getting the rest of the needed hardware and no way to refund payment?
So… Is there any hardware in place? Are there rigs running?
And, FTClover, is there ever anywhere anyplace you had a copy of the Bitcoin wallet? How did you get that wallet on your phone? Or did you create a completely new wallet for it on the phone? Is Dropbox or some other service active that might have made a backup? Which wallet program did you use? Maybe it wasn’t hosted on the phone but online somehwere? Any older wallet version or online version you might have could get you out of this mess! The only other option is find the phone.
-
Mike: There is no hardware and he haven’t lost anything.

Theres no hardware unfortunately, the pics of the rigs he posted on his site were actually of a rig posted at litecointalk in may last year :(
