Good friend of mine just confirmed after a meeting with low level SEC representatives that the Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating GAW MINERS, LLC for securities fraud and WILL be indicting/prosecuting them under the 1970 RICO Act.

Get any assets you have left out NOW.

Sounds like BS, but it is only a matter of time before they do get slammed by the SEC/FinCEN.

Yeah. Right. I´m sure that the present totally obsolete banking system
and its "regulators" are in a terrible hurry to stamp out BTC scams.

You would be surprised. It wouldn't be the first time the feds have gone after bitcoin ponzis/scams. They even went after Erik Voorhees just for selling unregistered securities.

Here are some nice quotes:

Fraudsters are not beyond the reach of the SEC just because they use Bitcoin or another virtual currency to mislead investors and violate the federal securities laws, said Andrew M. Calamari, Director of the SECs New York Regional Office.

All issuers selling securities to the public must comply with the registration provisions of the securities laws, including issuers who seek to raise funds using Bitcoin, said Andrew J. Ceresney, director of the SECs Division of Enforcement. We will continue to focus on enforcing our rules and regulations as they apply to digital currencies.

Yeah well, all during my stock investing career I figured
that the main purpose of the SEC was to create a sense
of false security. I guess when you watch the crap in
charge of that rotate between Wall St. and Washington
occasionally fining their owners cents on the dollar if it´s
ever collected at all

you got to eventually get a thought. Right ?
