here is some back story on bitspend: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=300329.0

He has run off with the funds for a year now, and shown that the message he posted on his websites about processing refunds was a lie.

After some of us over on reddit started to talk about launching a legal suit, the bitspend scammer deleted his known reddit account and made one called "Hollywood_mark". Shortly after he made these posts begging for bitcoins and asking for legal advice.


He also posted an update on bitspend.net

I took a screencap of his reddit posts before he deletes his account. Note all he talks about is marijuana. Well he also made a marijuana board game, under opspark LLC. http://www.opspark.org/thehighlife.html

If you had ordered something from bitspend and the retailer was amazon, the order was shipped to Amanda B. Bartels, at 1300 S 20th Ave Hollywood, FL .

This is how I know Hollywood_mark is none other then the Scammer Eric Whelchel of bitspend llc.


I have gone ahead and capped all of his reddit history before he deletes his account again.
