My interest in PB Mining is I have 900 GHs tied up in it and didn't receive my full payment this week, but instead received 10% of what I was expecting. I normally receive about 0.064 bitcoins per week and have been plowing the proceeds back into purchasing more Ghs whenever I surpassed the minimum amount of Ghs that was purchasable. Honestly I did suspect all along that PB Mining was a ponzi scheme, but wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt. I suspected it as such as for awhile because they had by far, as far as I could tell, the lowest charge per GHs for virtual online mining. I continued using them as they seemed to be the only one whose returns and price for GHs was worth investing in the get a healthy return, but I was kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop because comparatively speaking in contrast to other online ming sites, they were a bargain. I can see I don't have that much tied up in Bitcoin mining compared some others on this site. I see it as a hobby and this is a definite lesson learned. However, it would be nice to get back at least some refund. Comparatively speaking I'm certainly very far from wealthy. More like just subsisting. But I get by.


Called over there Sunday Evening and got a nice policewoman. I didn't expect much but she does know what bitcoins are. She says that we should call Staff Sergeant Tim Failler directly on Monday. His direct line is 306-975-8348. He is in charge of Economic and Stolen Auto crimes. His assistant can also takes calls. His/her number is 306-975-8243. This site confirms the assistant's number: http://police.saskatoon.sk.ca/contact/. Maybe call there first. The policewoman reported they will be in from 8 AM to about 4 PM Saskatoon time (Central Standard Time). She reported Sgt Failler may be in earlier than 8 AM, the assistant though will be in at 8 (CST).

Here is a picture of Sgt Failler: https://www.facebook.com/SaskatoonPolice/photos/pb.122212177802054.-2207520000.1417193303./836569049699693/?type=1. I'm not sure if he is the one on the left or the right.

I would advise against filing an online report here: http://police.saskatoon.sk.ca/onlinereporting/. One of the criteria for being able to filing online is there are no known suspects, but there is a suspect Jason Boyko right?

By the way, Jason's legal name may be Dave or is it the other way around, that Dave is an alias? See: http://www.lifenews.ca/announcement/4026856-boyko-garry.

Update: There are listings for Dave Boyko and D Boyko in Saskatoon if you look in Canada's Whitepages. I originally posted the phone numbers and addresses but I think that is too inflammatory and you can look them up if you are so inclined. As I said before, Dave Boyko or D Boyko may not be Jason Boyko, so don't take out your frustrations on either of those persons or do anything criminal without or even with proof.

For everybody's info, Jason does not appear to have a criminal record of Fraud in Saskatchewan or really much of any record, just an old traffic violation and a case where someone apparently assaulted him, not the reverse: http://www.canlii.org/en/sk/#search/jId=sk&all=Jason%20Boyko. There appears to be no record for Dave Boyko, so maybe Jason is his real name and the Dave thing is an alias. There are no other criminal records for Jason Boyko in Canada in other provinces as far as I can tell. At least that is using the http://www.canlii.org/ site.
