If Marcello was telling the truth
If Homero was telling the truth
If Chris was telling the truth
See a pattern here?
I guess if "Marcello" resurfaced again with some sob story about his hardships there would be no shortage of suckers willing to give it another go. SMH.
The only pattern I see is that you don't have much credibility yourself. I remember you defending LTCgear. That didn't turn out well. Being willing to give people a chance isn't the same as trusting them.
For the record I never called anyone at GAW "Homero" or did I ever say "if they were telling the turth" about them. With GAW I was pretty sure it was a fractional mining scam, it just turned out to be far worse than I though. It was also clear that the GAW leadership wasn't being honest. I did get burned a little there, but mostly because I got too greedy at the end and waited too long to sell. At least in that case the leaders are likely going to pay. I will credit you for being completely correct about GAW miners although you were quite hostile about it.
My guess if that is Marcello was real, he is probably dead. I don't believe he would have any credibility coming back a 3rd time. However some people would try a new scrypt.cc because of greed. Even once scrypt.cc quit honoring withdraws people kept investing there. It was crazy as there wasn't any doubt at that time that it was a scam. I have to admit I'm curious about what kind of sob story would be told.
Keep in mind there are many ponzi schemes that people are involved in everyday, many of those are ran by governments. For example in the US there is OASI (Social Security). There can be cases made that even fiat currencies or stocks are ponzi schemes. I'm not claiming those are scams, but the concept of a ponzi is often misused and only applied to scammers. In reality there are many scheme's that depend on new money following in to support some taking money out. On the flip side, something doesn't have to be a ponzi to be a scam. There are many kinds of scams.
I have no problem with labeling scrypt.cc a scam as it clearly was a scam, I just don't know the details about it. I'm not going to claim I know the details just to make some self righteous clowns happy.
