I don't know the purpose of why I was requested this. If there is any more evidence please PM me so I can add to the list
BuddyIsrael
Addresses:
1EdgXM2gbYedANE8yaZ1kC5QtXQHWNMSPC
1GAGfamAuSFwcrrYscQ2VrUhPEfHWPMXHM
Speaks german
Almost all of his posts are buying or selling something in marketplace
Gismo28
Addresses:
12NUDU4oKg2kjCuEqJiFNziQJ6mjM4GdoU
ALSO speaks german
MANY of his posts are in marketplace
It is possible that they are the same person. there are 2 pieces of evidence that link them together
I could do a thorough investigation of the addresses and see if there is anything linking them together, but this would cost a fee (it takes quite a long time)

They also have left trust rating for each-other:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=513698
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=404902
People that have alts often leave trust for each other to help them out with their business (whether it be scamming or genuine business).
This looks like a very direct connection here. I would say I am 65% sure they are connected, 100% when I connect their addresses, for example there is apparently a transaction between them, if that is true (and I find the reference) that means they are the same person.
The password for BOTH of them have been changed recently as well, which could link each of them.
Some more information found from tarsua:

Conclusion: Nothing directly links them together, however it is very probable
Evidence: Both german and both posts are in the marketplace buying the same things, left trust for eachother

Trust left by a user:
- 30% interest in 6 months is low for a ponzi scheme, however high for ANY legit website. Very smart strategy, allowing them to lay low and the ponzi can last longer with a smaller interest rate
- Signature campaign pays exuberant rates for an investment service. If the site can allocate that much for advertising, they obviously have a high profit margin, and the ponzi profit margin is pretty much unlimited.
- Signature campaign is very flashy and expensive. The ONLY way ponzis can work is if new investors come, so a very fast and effective way of advertising is the signature campaign.
All of this is true, and I confirm that every detail of this is proving that it is a scam/ponzi scheme, especially how much they are lying.
Conclusion: The extravagant lies and extravagant interest rates prove that this is probably a ponzi scheme.
I would NOT invest in this under any circumstances.

1. He claims to have $48M capital in their UK registration (seems lie to me - why would he need investments???)
2. Lie about the picture of "their" CEO and other employees - faking data. Which legitimate company would do this?? Now photos are removed.
3. Really do look like a classic cloud-mining scam with all the information on their website (like being unable to disclosure mining details/photos for security reasons etc.)
4. Other small details:
- Max payout of signature campaign is ~11 coins, he is only willing to escrow 4 coins. Considering he claims to operate in UK with a mining operation in Taiwan and being a manufacturer of "the best mining hardware in the world" - 11 coins should be basically nothing.
- Company in UK but somehow this Indonesian guy is the representative.
- mirjangka has a history of participating in ponzis, see:
