Could you imagine if like Yogg was on his deathbed or something and needed an operation to pay for it all and the only way to save his own life was to steal all this money from everyone and to never look back? Idk, I know he had health issues. The only thing I can think is that nobody could be this heartless to everyone if they didn't desperately need it. If they didn't and they just stole then they're just an asshole but part of me thinks that there is so much more to this story. I just wish Yogg has the balls the send the last message. Whether it be that he screwed everyone or was desperate I just wish we knew. The truth remains to be seen.

Hey kept the private keys while he should have destroyed them, end of story!

Indeed. There is enough evidence now I feel to say that this was his plan from the beginning. Between the closing of his company, tracing the stolen funds to an exchange, him not coming to face the music, keeping all the private keys from the beginning...

This is an example of it being harder to convince someone they've been scammed, then to scam someone. Yogg was a scammer and he scammed. He received plenty of help from his "friends" who are now busy thinking of ways to capitalize on the incident to sell more products to the scammed customers. All I can say is to be careful and don't be the guy who thinks there's more to this story. You'll be disappointed. Yogg was a scammer and he scammed. If you fell for it or considered him a part of your friend group, you were bamboozled and should take a long hard look at that friend group, because if there was any more to this story, it would be that Yogg didn't do this by himself.

"There is enough evidence now I feel to say that this was his plan from the beginning". I disagree and would argue just the opposite. If he wanted to do this from the beginning he would have done things a lot differently. He also would have had a much better system set up for sweeping funds. He was doing this slowly over the course of hours, and as far as we know just for the halving sets. He's a Mr Robot type, he would have had a much better system lined up to be able to easily sweep keys quickly, and not just one set of cards, but all of his cards. As far as we know so far, only the halving sets have been swept. Sure he didn't fund a lot of other cards, but that's different.

Either way, he's a scammer and it all sickens me. The betrayal I feel right now is one I don't think I've ever felt.

Ooof. randomly came across this post of mine which needs correction. OGNasty a page or two ago is right. I’ve told a few people but at this point I know there’s no hope for Yogg making any good so.. I messaged him via the forum and just told him how shocked I was. I was struggling to come to terms with the the potential truth which is in fact he’s just a scamming pos. I told him to reach out so we could chat. Few hours later and I see a call to my phone from France. Long story short I ruled out serious mental health issue/breakdown. He admitted to me that he had built in a “kill switch “ (keep the keys) form day fucking one. I tried several times to get him to send at least what he had made, funded or not..so that people he screwed over could have something. He had absolutely no interest in that. None. Not to mention what hurt most was that he had rot only ruined a friendship but I never got as much as a single sorry. Then a few days later he sweeps more cards (I messaged him on discord to a now defunct account, and begged him not to do it. Told me he was hungry and needed food) which meant he lied to me on the phone about not having any more keys left. He also told me he hated cryptocurrency stuff, coding etc and has all along. So yeah, he played us alll, for years. I’m not quite sure even why he called me at all.

Anyways..been meaning to share this. Also hoping this drives the “community” to stop dickiing around and come up w/a plan on how to disperse the funds from the charity auction. Personally I’d be pissed off if I was say Kilalara (who’s not said a peep about this) who was not affected by this at all, but out the kindness of his heart donated a valuable collectible… a good while ago now. It was meant to help those whom really needed it, and it’s yet to happen. Suing him is an option that is not even remotely wise. I don’t want anything back to be clear, but if everyone can’t come up with a consensus on what to do ..btc should be sent back to all the donators. At this point is gotten utterly ridiculous. Set a date, no consensus, donators refund.

Me coming from a hard(er) neighborhood than most, I’m gonna say it was drugs that got him down the rabbit hole he couldn’t find himself out of.
