[e-gold-list] Re: DGC, OSgold, exhangers, judgements - CaveatEmptor
... I used the term DGC a bit more loosely, as it seems to be becoming a common practice, even for currencies that have no known backing and dubious backers Robert's right, it's an excellent point. The fact is DGC does not at all MEAN actual gold or 100% backed or anything like that, and as Robert says the other fact is DGC is often used to mean quasi-gold systems, OSGold, evocash or the like. DGC is no good anyway, because, who says it is or should be used as a currency? The fact is it's gold that you can transfer ownership of on a web page -- the fact that that leads to it being USED AS (sometimes) a currency, is just a benefit. I killed off the earlier GBC (remember that?) since it contains the word backed which implicitly means fractional reserve (even if it's 100% backed that;s not the same as actual gold we store for you) (For instance, a 1% backed GBC would be a GBC.) I suggested at one point using some sort of complex acronym, it was something like .. FAGWANE -- fungible actual gold [--forget these two letters--], no encumbrances Other catchy ideas are say, AGOTBI (Actual Gold, Ownership Transferable By Inernet) Then there's the gaining-in-popularity IG -- Internet Gold which is fairly direct. (It's Just gold and that's it - it's internet-type gold, but it's just gold) althogh it is not absolutely positively an explanation of the situation (like FAGWANE or maybe AGOTBI) The very point is that the ideal acronym or name (maybe internet old) should very specifically absolutely reject the notion Pay me five grams of AGOTBI at this time if anyone liked this post :-) -- --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.

[e-gold-list] Who IS this sage? LOL
Craig, That's absolute, utter bull! Where on earth did you get your education? Thinking about your assertion, it doesn't even make any type of logical sense! It's a well known documented fact, that MOST ponzi/scams last less than a few months. OSGold actually traded *very* successfully for MORE than 16 months, with not a single glitch, gold backed or no. The single and only REASON why it failed was CEO Reed eventually scarpered with the bucks. OSGold, as an ecurrency, was very successful. Millions of successful transactions were completed in this time. It was the only ecurrency that actually came close to competing head to head with e-gold. Competitively, e-gold admin must have sighed a collective sigh of relief when OSGold failed. Indeed, what amazes me is that Reed was getting 50c from every spend. Potentially, he was not only sitting on a gold mine, he actually had a licence to print serious money! I wonder why he scarpered with only the few millions he stole? Obviously, he was thinking sort term gains only. It's a biblical truth that the love of money IS the root of all evil. Want to see a mans' character get displayed? Give him access to a million $$$, and watch what he does with it. Being SO wise after the event...is that any sort of wisdom at all? Now, how about ADDING to the industry, rather than bad mouthing the obvious, being that you're so wise.

[e-gold-list] Re: Who IS this sage? LOL
Umm, sorry to argue with this Graham but it is you who failed to see the utter obvious link with Osgold and Osopps (where is your DD skills?) ...the firm owned by Osgold was paying 30-40% per month on clients money...loading up their osgold accounts with totally worthless digital onscreen funds - yes there were many transactions making them money but the money was all made up Graham - and the stuff that wasnt made up was ponzi funds from the osopps clients! The single and only REASON why it failed was CEO Reed eventually scarpered with the bucks. No. the reason why I would believe, was they were running into many different problems no doubt and when problems occur in these scams people want out, and when people want out the sh!t hits the fan...the US$ may be going through the same problems as OsGold :) It was the staff or the CEO of osgold who decided it was better to run with the funds before they had to pay out all the inflated osopp funds to clients. They like the US government were pumping out worthless osgold $$$ via osopps scam. It is not a cold hard rule that ponzis breakdown after months Graham, internet scams like Osopps, Stockgenration can last for years - especially when the going is good as it is easy to pumpup digital online accounts - but the difference is when people start seeing problems and decide to withdraw. the cards then start tumbling fast. Ponzis like Government social security ponzis can last for decades... OSGold, as an ecurrency, was very successful. Yes, only due to Osopps scam really. the entire website was unprofessional, the system was basic, but the greed got the better of everybody with the osopps scam. You were kept busy not for the funding of Osgold, but by people funding osgold for the purpose of making quick cash from Osopps fiasco. Competitively, e-gold admin must have sighed a collective sigh of relief when OSGold failed. That is probably why they banned it from their services - they knew these guys were scammers like most of the exchangers did. ... he actually had a licence to print serious money! They did print it. There was just nothing backing it! Being SO wise after the event...is that any sort of wisdom at all? Many wise people did not lose $50,000 to OsGold. Unfortunately you did. The writing was always on the wall with this group it just was unfortuanate you took such a big hit. -- ___ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.

It never ceases to amaze me how after all these years, Graham still has such a limited understanding of how these internet currencies and ponzi scams work! he says: : The single and only REASON why it [OSGold] failed was CEO Reed : eventually scarpered with the bucks. Can't you see Graham, there were NO BUCKS LEFT to scarper with! The ponzi scam had used up all the money... all the issued OSGold was worthless for a LONG TIME before the fiasco crumbled. The only thing that kept it alive as long as it lasted was because people were not redeeming their OSGold, but were putting it back into the ponzi... as soon as enough people decided to pull their cash out, that was the end. : OSGold, as an ecurrency, was very successful. Nonsense, as an e-currency, OSGold was an absolute disaster. As a payment mechanism to extend the life of the scam it was highly successful. Certainly, for the vast majority of the time that OSGold operated, the currency was probably almost worthless, because there was no substance behind it, the people holding OSGold simply didn't (want to) realise this. : Indeed, what amazes me is that Reed was getting 50c from every spend. : Potentially, he was not only sitting on a gold mine, he actually had a : licence to print serious money! I wonder why he scarpered with only the : few millions he stole? Obviously, he was thinking sort term gains only. Nope, again you demonstrate your lack of understanding of the situation. The money was gone on the payouts to the early winners... then reed saw the wheels were falling off and he ran... I bet he had very little money left to run with. How do you know he got away with a few million? I doubt very much whether you will understand this because I have explained this to you at least twice before.

Greed got the better of many. Graham, you had better lay off this post as it really does show your inability to understand the mechanics of a digital currency and also the way these scams work. Just because one says to you there currency system is great, has lots of backing (150% gold :) and is doing 1000 transactions an hour does not make this system a winner. It is very simple to create an illusion on the internet and one has to look at why the currency is busy (or even if it is) or how is it making its transactional income etc?

[e-gold-list] Waay too much spare time!
CCS, Yes, I can SEE you are baffled! Let me educate you... you are centering up on the wrong issues. Probably as a result of all that schooling you received, probably paid for by your parents. Possibly your were a straight A student? The one voted at school to most likely to succeed in life? The issues are; We had 1000's of customers using OSGold... and nobody forced them to. We had multiple 1000's orders, IN/OUT/EXCHANGE, and nobody coerced/forced, or in anyway stood over these people. The ecurrency was real (in spite of what Jim Ray claims, and that laughter he mentions he was enjoying, was a direct result of OSGold failing, no doubt!) Hey, OSGold had a dud CEO... so did Standard Reverse, in SPITE of all the good input by a part owner, e-gold. The issue is Reed scarpered with a sizeable amount of loot, and we all lost $$$. So did Elwyn Jenkins. So what! What do we learn here... ? Is the lesson to AVOID dealing in ecurrencies, altogether? Robert was on the right track... go read his post! The main point is the OSGold demand was customer driven. MANY existing ecurrency providers pending ecurrency providers have spent 1000's of hours racking their brains over this issue... HOW did he get the people turnover?. The ones that can up with the answer, They were a scam, or, they were just a ponzi, or similar, are barking up the wrong tree, but believe erroneously that they are right (is this the place to quote the bible verse, PRIDE goes before a fall?) Recently, e-gold hit records for numbers of spends per day. How many of those spends were for scams, ponzi's? Is e-gold exempt from scams, ponzis, just because they're gold backed? Gimme a break! Incidently, crazy failed BrightPay generated 21,000 customers in their first 5 weeks... e-gold took YEARS to get to the same level. BrightPay *were* on the right track. Pity about the weak CEO, had no business sense, we poured 1000's of hours trying to re-educate him in how to operate. Unfortunately, we only got access after the ship started sinking, and we nearly got it floated... The good news is that the extremely hard working customer service manager, who we had access to, took my advice... his ecurrency is just about to launch! AND ONLY existing market makers will be able to IN/OUT/EXCHANGE their ecurrency. The beauty is, all of the existing providers faults (as we are AWARE), will not be incoporated into it, and all of the positives, including Sidds Pecunix type of security, have already been added. Should be a pearler, let's wait and see. e-gold admin are learning as they are going along, just like all the rest of us. Hopefully, Jim Ray is keeping up with the learning curve, whilst stroking his Colt 45. Hey, there's not a perfect ecurrency, and there isn't a perfect market maker, (except of course the very attractive Paul in Estonia, and the lesser attractive Michael in Melbourne!). My motive is simply to run a honest business, and to protect as many of us in the industry from crooks/thieves, of ALL descriptions, including the professional ones. Heck, I even verify people for OTHER ecurrencies and market makers. As far as I know, all the verified folks haven't run off with anybodies money/gold/wives... yet! Guys, find out what the customer wants, and give it to him. We are working on this ourselves, and e-gold definately needs to work on it as well. e-gold could certainly take a lesson from OSGold re: their MM customer service reps. OUTstanding service, nice folks, and good to deal with. AND very surpised when their boss ran off with the loot. To quote you, I'm also baffled! AND I have so little understanding of people who always look at the negative! After all this time, you obviously don't understand what the customers want... or probably care. I'm sure you can even tell me which ecurrency will fail next, AND have a small book on it. Back to work... I wish I had time for sleep!

[e-gold-list] The bet
Hey JP, remember a year ago when I bet you 10gg that by midnight GMT on 06-Jun-2003, that we would still have no explanation from e-gold why their gold assets in reserve continue to slightly exceed the number of digital grams in circulation? Well, the assets still exceed the liabilities and we still have no explanation. http://e-gold.com/examiner.html Reserve = 1,738,952.90 gg Circulation = 1,738,717.31gg Reserve Excess = 235.59 gg At the time, my position was that this excess was of no consequence and did not matter whatsoever. You took the position that it was an unacceptable accounting practice akin to commingled funds. In any event, I maintained that e-gold would not offer any explanation regarding the nature of this excess or who owned it. From all the available evidence, it does appear that I have in fact won this bet.

[e-gold-list] Re: Who IS this sage?
If e-gold had denied OSGold from having/operating e-gold accounts (as their user agreement permits them to do), OSGold could not have exchanged OSGold to e-gold (as they did for the exchange Providers for many months), and the OSGold story would have stopped right from the beginning. We were not born as an exchange provider when the OSGold experience started, but we sure exchanged a lot of OSGold to e-gold thereafter. (at customer's request) And the e-gold we were providing our customers with for their OSGold was coming ... straight from OSGold's e-gold accounts ! So, please all stop this diarrhea of hypocritical messages on that subject and each clean up your own act (or laissez faire, which is not much better) instead of playing innocent virgins on public lists Regards, Patrick, http://AnyGoldNow.com THE Exchange Provider Any Gold, Any time, Anywhere Get Fund your Cash Card Did OSGold actually buy back the currency?

[e-gold-list] Re: Waay too much spare time!
Graham, I have to respond to this. It rubs me the wrong way. :) The issues are; We had 1000's of customers using OSGold... and nobody forced them to. We had multiple 1000's orders, IN/OUT/EXCHANGE, and nobody coerced/forced, or in anyway stood over these people. The ecurrency was real (in spite of what Jim Ray claims, and that laughter he mentions he was enjoying, was a direct result of OSGold failing, no doubt!) 1) No way. No how! There was no POSSIBLE way that OSGold was anything but a scam, because they were running OSOpps, which paid 45% return on principle every 3 months. Any and EVERY business which makes a claim like this is a SCAM -- period. 2) They claimed to be 150% backed by gold!!! There is no way, no how, that this is possible. This means that every time someone deposits $1000 into OSGold, that the owners put in $500 of their own money. What would be the point? Hey, OSGold had a dud CEO... so did Standard Reverse, in SPITE of all the good input by a part owner, e-gold. The issue is Reed scarpered with a sizeable amount of loot, and we all lost $$$. So did Elwyn Jenkins. So what! What do we learn here... ? Is the lesson to AVOID dealing in ecurrencies, altogether? 1) The Owners of OSGold were thieves, for the reasons outlined above. Plain and simple. 2) IF Elwyn Jenkins is a thief, then he is by far a less obvious one. Elwyn Jenkins may simply have been irresponsible. Same result -- different reason, and if we could determine those who will be irresponsible before they lose our money, then the better. However, there was no doubt with OSGold. The main point is the OSGold demand was customer driven. MANY existing ecurrency providers pending ecurrency providers have spent 1000's of hours racking their brains over this issue... HOW did he get the people turnover?. The ones that can up with the answer, They were a scam, or, they were just a ponzi, or similar, are barking up the wrong tree, Why are we barking up the wrong tree? They were a scam. They advertised a scam. They gave the appearance of stability. They promised 45% return on investment, every three months. What else do you think it was? Customer service?!? but believe erroneously that they are right (is this the place to quote the bible verse, PRIDE goes before a fall?) Recently, e-gold hit records for numbers of spends per day. How many of those spends were for scams, ponzi's? Is e-gold exempt from scams, ponzis, just because they're gold backed? Gimme a break! E-Gold does not run the scams. Big difference. Honest people do not steal your money, and scams do. E-Gold is trustworthy. Those running scams are not. Incidently, crazy failed BrightPay generated 21,000 customers in their first 5 weeks... e-gold took YEARS to get to the same level. BrightPay *were* on the right track. Pity about the weak CEO, had no business sense, we poured 1000's of hours trying to re-educate him in how to operate. Graham, it's not possible to run a non-repudiable e-currencies which supplies easy access to money, and you can't have a PayPal without the repudiation headaches. The two are inseparable, and they always will be. Guys, find out what the customer wants, and give it to him. We are working on this ourselves, and e-gold definately needs to work on it as well. e-gold could certainly take a lesson from OSGold re: their MM customer service reps. OUTstanding service, nice folks, and good to deal with. AND very surpised when their boss ran off with the loot. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Don't push a currency unless you have confidence in it.

I know! Can someone tell the list about this new INTgold thing? Thanks Jim :o) All I know is that we actually dealt with them a couple of months ago without realizing that they were a budding DGC (I'll stick to DGC until JP explains the implications of A becoming bi). At the time we bought some VirtuPay$ from them for a client of ours. It took them two days to fill the order, but they did come through and one can't hold the delay against them, considering that VirtuPay was never widely accepted or exchanged. Anyway, INTgold's admin asked ours if we'd exchange banners which we couldn't do because we don't have a banner page (well, that was before www.thegoldindex.com ). The current take on them seems to be that they are growing steadily, have about 25,000 accounts and 13KG in reserves - although they don't seem to say where. I like the idea of getting my cards directly from the DGC operator and the incentives they claim to offer are sales based and hence feasible. So far so good, I'd say. Time will tell.

Criminals are persistent. It's easy to demand JMR zero crime, but hard to cause it. So WHAT exactly should JMR e-gold do about this, besides what they're already doing? What I want point is that e-gold has often some strange attitude: Putting balance limits on some accounts where people simply do not WANT to tell about their address for good reasons, and in the same way, allowing massive scams as long as scammers simply pay for a true address anywhere in the world (pay with e-gold :-) Moreover, when a new e-gold account suddenly receives hundreds of payments, from a website that is easily checkable, I think that it is EASY to detect a scam ! And I am sure that e-gold has systems to detect such things on the accounts. So, WHY doesn't e-gold simply lock any account, regarding the nature of the website ? Censorship ? No, simply the right of a commercial company to avoid beeing involvd in scams ! And what I want also show is that there are 2 different attitudes: One regarding e-gold that has all rights and one regarding the market-makers that are crucified as soon as they make the same thing than e-gold (allowing scams). Moreover, when I see such services like e-told, that kindly promote JMR Here's another issue, should they censor such people. A JMR disagreement with their economic ideas shouldn't affect a JMR minority's ability to use e-gold, IMO. Many people I know have JMR minority views on a variety of economic issues. Why don't you at e-gold put in the Directory, these wonderful investment programs ? because you have some kind of morality :) E-told simply makes his money with advertizing for scams. Moreover, when I read the e-told letter that somebody kindly sends me, when I see e-told redactors writing This program is strange, the admin stopped replying since 2 weeks...It makes me think So, this is a scam, BUT others are not, because the admin still replies! By allowing some admins to publish their results every day before they disappear, e-told is DIRECTLY involved in their scams. JMR They have none, all they have is a user agreement with the JMR ability to do certain things, like value-limit accounts to stop JMR obvious frauds. The characteristics of better money make it JMR attractive to a wide variety of individuals, including a few JMR greedy bad ones. e-gold, as I've repeatedly said, is not a JMR legal system or a cop, it's just a currency. Expecting these JMR diverse functions (such as extensive investigation) from a JMR currency isn't logical (or even desirable, IMO). IMO anyway, I think that people should be adult, and if they loose what they earned bybeeing stupid, well... That's their problem. But so, no difference of treatment should be made between e-gold that isn't a cop and market-makers that aren't cops. And who both make profits from the scammers :-) JMR What, exactly, would you do to a scam like The Gold Casino? The Gold Casino is a scam ? I don't know this Gold Casino, but I guess that it is a ..casino, right ? Casinos are games where people know that they can win and loose. As far as I know, nobody in casino promises only earnings. Morevoer, HYIPS claim to INVEST the money, despite they invest nothing, and use it for their own needs. There is treachery here too. Casinos announce some games, and users have some games. They have what they pay for. JMR Remember, many of these couch themselves in the terminology of JMR games, not investing. No, most of them claim to invest in some markets, etc. I don't speak here about lotteries or other GAMES, that are GAMES and are really not scams.
