@ MPOE-PR - Bottomline, you need to prove the intention of scamming you. If you calling for a Scammer tag because two parties took "risk" in trusting each other and the debtor made bad choices with an investment, DOES NOT mean it is a scam. You may not like the decision but at the time you made the deposited the coins, you trusted that person judgement. Nothing you say, even with insults changes that fact.

Yes he is in "default" at this time but you continue to claim something much more nefarious. If you want that to stick, you need to come with more proof and is verifiable in some manner.

Public Disclosure: I do not or am not owed any debt to PatrickHarnett. I have talk to him once offline about a business project I was working on that was un-related to any lenders or securities that are in default.

Right, all I have is circumstantial evidence. That happens to be all we'll ever have, in this case and in absolutely any other. Not like someone's going to uncover PatrickHarnett's signed confession.

For the record, there's still people who believe pirate was a stand-up guy and "it wasn't proven he was a scammer". And there's some brainies chipping in to buy Nefario flowers.

What can I tell you....

You need to read up on contract law then. Anything written can count as a valid contract. Heck, even a verbal or handshake agreement can be a contract, and enforceable in court. The only thing that needs to be done is the contract has to be proven. IRC logs can server that purpose, as can emails, recorded telephone conversations, etc.

In fact it has been long established legal practice (where "long" means > 100 years) in both civil and common law that any exchange which shows agreement between businessmen of the sort they would normally employ in the usual course of their trade is sufficient and binding as a contract. These aren't retail investors dealing here.
