But the scammer said he didn't make a mistake.
After I busted him he posted it was what he invested over several months. Then, when I explained his math didn't work, he edited his message to say he also spent some of the money (around $1000) on himself . His story keeps changing.To top it all off, he is on these forums during North American hours - not UK hours.
1) I respect the other posters, even if they have many questions, i welcome actual questions instead of snide comments. But that one single peter griffen troll, you seriously need to stop smoking the green plant, its affecting you.
2) my edits add more information to clarify facts. but it has been seen and proven that your edits remove statements.
3) I suffer from insomnia so I am not perfect either, but at least your mentality is in your ability to control, I work during the day sleep in the afternoon/evening and come on here when I cant sleep during the earlier hours. And other UK forum members also seem to be on late too so throw us in the tower of London peter griffen. lol Maybe due to American dominance, making MTGOX trading more lively in the late hours that keeps us awake, trading for profit.
4) Your maths is stupid. 35 spare BTC being $1000!!? Get out from under your rock and put your brain to work. Or maybe Ill do the maths for you.
I know that I have put in £1700 towards BTC community and ended up with 185BTC after deductions. But I do not have the exact exchange rates of the particular transactions so lets make it simple and put it all into one lump and use the conversion rates and fees of when the majority of the trades occurred. So £1700 at BTC price of £8.75(roughly at the time, from memory. So dont quote). Using moneygram £1700 converts to $2477. Then add bitinstant fee of 3.99% brings it down to $2378. I will just add this now that the GBP to USD exchange rate may be slightly different now but very close approximations. Definitely not $2700 the griffen troll quotes.
Ok divide the $2378 by 185BTC brings it to $12.85 each. Now to the other point the griffen troll makes about rates only moving a few cents over the last 3months. I guess he forgot about the $14 BTC so buying some coins at over $13 and some under $12 over the last couple months would give a average resembling something similar to the high $12 dollar range.
I will now state that for my personal use I did not keep logs, sorry for that Im only human. But for my business everything would be logged so dont hold my personal approximations against my future business. It will all be done right down to the satoshi.
