I believe he was extremely young when he was running that business.
Business failures are problematic. They are breach of contract but may be due to an external issue out of their control.
Ultimately the money is still owed by him. He didn't get found, prosecuted or bankrupted.
I tried to interview trade fortress for an article but he didn't proceed with it.

This sounds a bit like whitewashing. He's a bona fide scammer and a sociopath. inputs.io happened before my time but I was around when he exit-scammed with hashie. He set up the scheme with a purchased hero account, managed to get into some sort of partnership with a reputable (at the time; later exit-scammed too LOL) hardware vendor, and then didn't just run away with the funds - he trolled everyone on the way out. And again blamed a "hack".

His attempt to refund his victims was also just a form of trolling really. He refunded a few, nobody knows if they were real or just his sockpuppets. The he just stopped issuing refunds earlier than promised. I know at least two victims who didn't even get a response from him.

I never did any real research on him since he didn't go through with the interview. Maybe he is a good topic for an article. The main reason I didn't go through with with writing an article anyway was because other people had said that he was really young at the time (17 or 18).
