Anyone know why I didn’t get my first airdrop? I’ve got 14 BTX in my Coinomi wallet. I signed the message in the app and copied it across to the website along with my address but nothing came through yesterday. I tried to register again but it says I’ve already done it. Any ideas?

check registered address here https://chainz.cryptoid.info/btx/  to see the balance

It says no results when I enter my public address!

Hello again,
I've been out of the country for a few weeks and back soon. When I'm home I'll post copies of all the bank transactions for people to see.

I'll ask Ricky for one last time. Do you know anything about or are the owner of the account details I sent via private message and know about £450 sent to that account on 10/04/13 and £550 on 11/04/13?

If you carry on ignoring the question I will simply post the bank account details in my next reply. If they don't belong to you then I suppose you won't mind.

And yet he still won't answer if the bank account is his!!!! This is the most important question. This is where the money was transferred to so if it's his account then he either stole it or if his account was hacked he will be able to tell me where the money went and provide a police reference that he reported the matter.

I'm not sure what fjlj is taking but he should up the medication. Ronald Kumar is one of the most common names on the planet!!!! Which planet is that? I'd accept the comment if his name was smith or Ahmed or something similar. There are 17 in the whole of London named R Kumar on the electoral roll. Not exactly common is it and it doesn't take long to track an eBay username if you know what to do.

It's taken me 2 years to track Ricky down because members of the public don't have easy access to private information. It costs time and money to track someone down. My house isn't in foreclosure either. In fact all of my properties that I rent out are doing quite well thanks. simplyBTC turned over just short of £500,000 in the first year it was up and running. Sadly, my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and is now in a care home. That's why the site was closed although since I still have a bit of time left on my hosting contract the webpage is still active.

Take note Ricky, see how I answer people's questions? You're still avoiding mine aren't you.... I spoke to the landlady about 15 minutes ago. She is away in France for 10 days and will happily forward me her file when she gets back.

Hmmmmm, if I was innocent I'd simply confirm that the bank account was nothing to do with me.

What do other people think?

Thanks ajareselde,

A simple yes or no from Ricky will do. Do you own this account?

If you really want I can post the transaction receipts fjlj. However, they will clearly detail the offenders bank account number and sort code which I don't really want to do in public. Fjlj clearly has a very close and personal relationship with digitalgold but I wonder how well he really knows him? Have you even met? Do you know anything about him or do you just refuse to believe he could be a criminal? Ricky's last post says he doesn't even live in the UK yet he has registered a UK business with a London address. Just how honest is he being now?

Fjlj goes on about owning a bank account doesn't mean you've done anything wrong and just proves a transaction took place. Digitalgold has been on here a few times now and avoided the question. Is he going to admit the bank account is his and admit a transaction took place?

Still waiting for your answer......

Thanks,
Like I said in my original post all the personal info I have posted is nothing that isn't available freely with a quick search. The company info is from companies house and that is where the address came from (although in a personal message to me he claims not to have lived in London for 'several years'. I haven't posted any private information at all (I have kept the bank account details and voters checks private).

I didnt hope to achieve anything by posting on this forum. I haven't made any demands from anyone. The digital currency world is littered with people willing to make fast cash. I will continue with my criminal and civil court case and keep you all posted. The purpose of my original thread was to serve as a warning to others who can read the information and decide who has done what. Bringing people to justice where it involves almost completely anonymous crypto currency is hard and I wanted to warn people and let them know my experience.

Too many people have posted on here pretending to know the law and thinking that because they have done a few successful transactions that Ricky must be 100% honest. They don't know him or his past and base their opinion of him sat on the other side of a keyboard. This isn't a criminal court hearing either so please be patient as I post updates. He still refuses to comment on whether the bank account belongs to him or not as I suspect the Police will confirm it is his when they get the reply from Natwest. Like I said before, read my original post, weigh up what has been said and decide for yourselves.

Thanks for your helpful insight fjlj. I have an action fraud reference number, police crime report reference and a small claim court reference pending as soon as they process my paperwork and small claim fee that I sent off. I also have copies of all the confirmed bank transactions. I suspect I know a little more about law than you do as well. The whole point of this forum section is to warn other users and not every post in the scam section is backed up by a court hearing and verdict. It can take a long time to bring someone to justice. Read my initial post and decide who is in the wrong for yourself. If you want to trade with digitalgold then fine. I'm not saying that every transaction he does is a scam I'm just highlighting what happened to me and where the evidence points.

Please go back to your google search and check extortion. I have made no demands from anyone so as per usual a few desktop solicitors are piping up with wrong comments!

You still haven't confirmed or denied if the bank account details I sent in the private message are yours or not.

I have now asked Ricky to confirm or deny if the bank account is his or not. The Police are also currently checking the owner of this account and I'm waiting for their reply. Most landlords or landladies would take banking details when deposits are paid. I have contacted her and asked for the paperwork to be forwarded to me which I will scan and add on to this post.

The comment about africaans is highly relevant. If someone had stolen his identity and bank account and then rented a house it would be one hell of a criminal that went as far as to learn personal skill sets from the identity he stole. Given that the landlady specifically remembers him being able to speak Africaans suggests that the person who rented the house is in fact Ricky. Unless by a massive coincidence this person looks exactly like him, speaks the same languages and uses the same bank account!!!

So how does the landlady have the exact same bank details as the ones I transferred money to? I haven't assumed anything. It's taken me 2 years to track you down and an innocent person even got dragged in to the court case. I hope you enjoyed spending my money but now it's time to pay it back!

Thief - Ricky Heuwel aka digitalgold aka Digital Gold Ltd

Where I can give publically available information I will but things like bank account numbers and other information I will withhold for the courts and Police. I have provided as detailed account as possible so people can decide if he is a thief and see if he replies.

 

In mid-2013 I was just starting to get in to bitcoin. I built up what I thought was a trusting relationship with an ebay user named rkum3541 and I transferred 2 payments totalling £1000 to a Natwest bank account and the payments were confirmed as successful. Looking back now this was obviously pretty stupid.

Once the money was transferred the user stopped replying to my messages and I later found out that other people had been victim to this.

I managed to trace the ebay user to a male named Ronald Kumar. From these details I established that he lived on Cranbrook Road in London. I started Court Proceedings and won the case due to no reply. Months later I was contacted by Mr Kumar as he had a CCJ on his file that he knew nothing about. At first I thought that he was simply trying to get me to remove the judgement. However, he knew nothing about bitcoins and had a good job so it was unlikely that he did have any involvement.

It turned out that Kumar had moved from Cranbrook road which is why he never got the paperwork. When KUMAR moved out the new tenant was a Mr Ricky Heuwel. Heuwel then used KUMARS details to hack his ebay account and start selling bitcoins. I have shown a picture of HEUWEL from his LinkedIn and facebook profile to the landlady of Cranbrook Road who confirms that it is him. She also said that he spoke Africaan which he lists in his Linkedin profile. She also has all the details of his bank accounts and guess what… the natwest account I transferred money to is the same one he used to pay his rent.

HEUWEL has now moved from that address but is the registered director of Digital Gold ltd with an address of 98 Stanley Road, Croydon, CR0 3QB. He has made posts about this company under the bitcointalk username of digitalgold. I wasn’t surprised to find that HEUWEL was involved in digital currency given that he had stolen from me pretending to sell bitcoins. So, the paperwork is now with the Police and a small claim court file has also been opened.

We got scammed the exact same way a few years ago when we first started out. It was clear the account was never hacked but paypal didn't bother to investigate it. Luckily we had withdrawn the funds and just refused to give the money back to paypal because it was their poor security that allowed it to happen!

We sell physical coins and cards for collectors. Our cards are popular as they are 'offline' and can't be hacked or frozen like mtgox. We were listed on Casascius website before he paused production but we have a good selection. Our site is www.SimplyBTC.co.uk and one of the few UK sites selling physical coins.
