I've watched the whole Instawallet fiasco like a hawk because I had some BTC in Instawallet.
I never used Instalwallet, but I did keep an eye on how davout and boussac behaved during and after the incident because they are involved in other Bitcoin projects.
The way they handled the situation looks to me consistent with what I'd expect from scammers.
Honest people would show some signs of remorse and humility after losing so much of other people's money - they were arrogant and hostile instead.After reading up on the posts from boussac and davout concerning this fiasco, I agree with this post. They had really no remorse and made very little attempt to make things right with PG as far as public record confirms.
