Hey guys, glad I can finally post! I "purchased" an X1 model from bitcoinminingcenter.com, Phoenix Technologies, on 11/13/13 through Coinbase transaction. I have an email trail between myself and Xiao consisting of over 30 messages. I have received this response from Coinbase:

"unfortunately they did not register any identifying information with us because they never bought or sold Bitcoin on our website. I can tell you that they funneled most of their Bitcoin offsite through the address '16hhF6FhbZiAcv6fyrXatnTqi1wFvzWtyt'." (If you trace this address through the blockchain, you will see this douche made off with >940 BTC, 2.33 of which were mine!).

bitcoinminingcenter.com was hosted at this IP address 67.215.66.132

So, I am thinking there may be some options for US prosecution as well? I am hoping at least...

And that chick on the phone was trying to sell me another one last night! They will get caught its just a matter of time but I'd rather have them get caught now. We have a lot of info together already the only thing we have to do is either get a agency on them or hire an investigator and someone that can follow the blockchain to whoever touched a cent.
I asked coinbase about 5 times about bitcoinminingcenter and if they were in good standing because some post a week or 2 prior said that coinbase banned them yet still allowed them to process payments?? then all of the sudden after 3 weeks with no response from CB I get 3 reponses in ten minutes to tell me that they cant help and didn't know, basically a big pile of BS just like coinbase is! wouldn't supprise me a bit if we find out they were getting kickbacks.
