i do not understand. If this is all true, and the BTC-Arbs guy is not a fake guy, why does he need everyone to write him a message and claim for their bitcoins?
Dont he have his own history, where he can see which acc had how many bitcoins deposited?
why cant he send everyone an e-mail, to the email acc you had to register with and tell them that they can contact him for repay? Why publish this message here?
I thought about it, but then again he might just be paying of the people that care enough to track him down. It is also possible there is a lot more to the story.
