Bitcoins are quite controversial right now, but here's an outright scam using them for entirely illegal purposes. Namely, a cash gifting pyramid scheme.

Thankfully, I'm not the only person this con was reported to.

-------------------------

And while I don't know who is behind the pyramid yet, I can point out a victim or two.


Let's start with Nigel Hulme, whose participation violates Gambling Act 2005.

It seems that we can add Peter Aldred of the Ethos Group as another member of this pyramid scheme. He's also been revealing himself to be a loon, on one of his own Youtube videos.



ethospete 11 minutes ago

As you state that is an 'Act' and is not 'Common Law' and 'Her Majesty' has no jurisdiction on land as all their acts, laws and statues are maritime law cover the oceans and are not laws of the land. If you check you will see that many online casinos which previously weren't allowed to operate in restricted countries, like the Philippines for one example, are now open for business as people there can now gamble perfectly legally for BitCoins as they are a digital crypto-currency not fiat.

Sounds far too much like the court cases discussed at Quatloos, if you ask me.

Judging by some of the discussions in bitcoin fora, he may perhaps be the "merlin" account at the top of the pyramid.

If something really doesn't exist are you actually getting ripped off?

Here is the latest attempt to undermine the authorities. A new illegal gifting scam using bitcoins:

Merlin’s Magic BitCoins is the most Powerful Income Accelerator yet developed. Our highly experienced team has spent many months developing and analysing many different systems and algorithms. Using complex mathematical models they analysed and modified them until they were satisfied that all their stringent criteria were met. The end result is Merlin’s Magic BitCoins - a concept so simple that at first we couldn’t believe that it was so powerful. It is amazing that nobody has ever thought of it before.


Merlin has five different Circles, or ‘Round Tables’ and, as new Members join, their gifts are sent to the head of the next table due to receive a gift. Each table receives a ‘Gift’ in rotation. This means that each table receives 20% of all Gifts (1 in 5).

What is it?
Merlin’s Magic BitCoins uses and enhances a concept that has been in existence for centuries. It is not Network Marketing, not Multi-Level Marketing and is not a business or commercial activity. There are no Business Transactions, Investments or Securities involved. It is a private group of individuals who support each other by giving ‘gifts’ to one another.

What is Gifting?
Private gifting has been around for centuries and is practised in most countries around the world. Asian, Jewish and South American communities ‘gift’ on a regular basis to help people buy a home or start a business. People in the Western world ‘gift’ at weddings, on birthdays and other holiday …

So they used "complex mathematical models" and ended up with "magic" in the name? This can not bring any new converts.

On other note, I wonder how you prosecute this if Bitcoin are not accepted as currency. Did they prosecuted somebody before with pyramiding with something other than a currency or precious metals?

I always liked the Doctrine of Substance over Form as a catchall (although mostly an accounting/tax concept) in that you can't just call something whatever you want and escape the true nature of the transaction. I suspect under the law this would be analogous to exchanging people's cash for plastic chips and then running a gambling operation claiming you are only playing for "chips". Since at some point the people would expect to be able to convert their chips into either currency, goods, or services.

KSchang did a good write-up here on pyramids and ponzis, including a section on the Howey Test which also looks like it may apply.

if anyone was in any doubt Merlins' Magic Bitcoins was just ANOTHER HYIP ponzi fraud among thousands, that doubt has now been removed.

Merlns' Magic Bitcoins now has it's own thread on the Talkgold HYIP ponzi forum (http://www.talkgold.com/forum/r389610-.html)

Where ever you find wizards you are going to find demons. Quite funny to see a collection of them all in one place spouting their nonsense. Demons hate goodness, beauty and truth. And demons are very real,. they are the controlling forces behind so many aspects of our world. Many people are totally unconscious of the fact that they carry these demons as part of their make up but they are easy to spot. Here they are hating like minded philanthropists who are gathering together to make a difference to other peoples lives and their own by sharing, giving and in this case investing in bitcoins. Take a real look at yourselves and drop the demonic - if you can and that is the challenge

Forgiveness may be well and good, cosmicangelz, but trying to paint white over harmful things by trying to rationalize them away as "like-minded" is not angelic. Perhaps you have been staring at the Sun too long and are blinded by the light?

Just to be clear on a few things Quasit, we are not playing Dungeons and Dragons, we here are evaluating scams. Not for ourselves, not to sell other programs, but for complete strangers 400+ of them on this thread alone. Hardly the work of demons, in fact more to the point, there are BILLIONS lost each year to online fraud, that is the work of demons.

Now enough with the silly talk. This "PHILANTHROPIST" is hiding his location. Scamadviser.com | check a website for risk | check if dodgey | check is a website s |check website is fake or a scam (http://www.scamadviser.com/check-website/merlinsmagicbitcoins.com)

And their identity, notice the part where the site is only expected to be around for a year? What do you suppose that means in scam world?

You are either promoting this program, or comfortable with stealing from others to line your own pockets, to that end.

That Hitchin Herts address rings bells with me "prof." Was it the address of the payment processor pimped by "Dr Mara" of VLane notoriety? I think that was called Hatfield Oak.

Other bells sounding in my head are the names TCoughlin and Oxford Credit Union. There are pages and pages of posts about Oxford Credit Union on WLD and it is one of the few threads in WLD that is still active. I believe somebody made a post yesterday. I will look it up later but Hitchin is a small town just out of London and I would be prepared to go over there some time to see what I can find out.

You still sound very ugly and come across like the thing in the picture. The question does come up is although there online scams, how manycompanies and individuals and organisations are you spreading malicious untruths about. Put two bitcoins into Merlins Magic Bitcoins :) into the system and give us an honest update in a months time.. but still lets keep looking at the question of just how many innocent people, organisations or like minded people are you spreading demonic nonsense about on your site? Just look at the selection of smiley's you offer and might help you get some insight into yourselves. I wonder what kind of karmic payback you are creating for yourselves. Certainly if the can identify some real scams good for you,, but what about the other side of the pernicious nonsense you spread or would you just say that is collatoral damage to every other organisation,individual etc.

You have not done your homework at all, you are grossly misinformed by your own preconditioned prejudices and you cannot see outside of your narrow delusions.

It really does sound like you guys are jealous of Peter, especially those remarks about his recommendations for cancer... there are loads of recommendations for alternative cancer treatments and they are welcomed by people who have cancer as many people recover from using these alternatives. Anyway sort out this cosmic karmic spat. Forgive them Peter, is the only advice I can give you. To people who know what Merlins Magic Bitcoins is really about . You look really stupid and you didn't do your homework and you don't know what you are talking about. That might not worry you right now coz the membership is not very big.. But it might worry you more and more and more as the membership grows?

We didn't describe Merlins' Magic as cash gifting, neither did we write the rules.

On my daily walk there is a goat that the dogs and I will stop and talk to for a few minutes, well I talk the dogs wag and sniff. I don't really expect the goat to understand, and certainly don't spend all day there. Today, I will skip the goat and spend a few minutes with you. I can't speak for the entire world, but in most industrialized nations there are laws that prohibit people from forming "clubs" as a way to skirt existing "laws". In this case it would be laws against either cash gifting or pyramid schemes.

You are not choosing to "help" people, you are choosing to do this to make a "profit". Problem is the SCHEME will run out of money and/or people and will implode. Whether next week, next month or next year. History has proved this 100% true 100% of the time. Most people will end up losing money, except for the folks that set this scheme up. Any money YOU make will mean others have to lose theirs. If you put pen to paper that is the only possible outcome.


Communities of jews give to each other why shouldn't there be others?

There is nothing you have said in any of your posts that has convinced me that you have any concern in "giving", if you are concerned with giving there are 1000s of places that need money. This is about "taking". Now maybe you are young, maybe you are new, maybe you are thick, but this will end one way. Right now there are 1000s of these programs floating around the web, nothing new and one day poof, Merlin will be gone.

Now we should all blow our brains out and follow the advice of a computer programme that evaluates millions of computer pages on selective limited data. Having followed all these threads to the very end it does appear that you do not have one single intelligent observation to make. No wonder you lot at this junk website cut and paste the replies and tag them right on the end where the think they may not be seen :) I think the topic is pretty much closed and everything has already been said by your most enlightening visitor Cosmic Angelz who has shown you up to be what you are.

I am watching these threads being manipulated . The owners of this show are not only demonic but very very weak, cowardly custards :RpS_wink: that cannot take on an equal and honest debate. Shame. Hope you get to grow a back bone

Yep, and IGNORANT as well.

BTW, Mr Observer, are you one of CosmicAngelz bosom buddies or is it mere coincidence you are both with Sky Broadband in the UK ??

Good again that you admit to your ignorance as well as that 'something' that speaks through you

Are you not responding to this person through your own limited ideas? You go out not to help people but to make a profit, and you project your inner lack of worth to all that you meet?

Ya found me out. Was just trying to get in on Mervinz Mystical Bit-bits before you and that other observant gent. This is truly a once in a lifetime, mortgage the house, back up the truck, never seen before, never to be seen again opportunity. Welcome to my downline sucka.:pimp::mooning::pimp:

Thanks, I think I will go along soon and join your programme. You come across as a very decent human being,whilst those opposing you and your efforts come across like some mentally delinquent banjo strummers who don't know the notes or the tune but put together a conglomoration of sounds that produces the effect of audio bull crap.

Thanks Merlin :RpS_wink:


As has previously been pointed out to Merlin's core group - most if not all of whom appear to be British - gifting programmes are illegal under United kingdom law, with the definition of gifting being in Gambling Act 2005.

still waiting for some money from these alleged 'philanthropists' who are looking for nothing in return in order to be legal.

You still sound very ugly and come across like the thing in the picture. The question does come up is although there online scams, how manycompanies and individuals and organisations are you spreading malicious untruths about. Put two bitcoins into Merlins Magic Bitcoins :) into the system and give us an honest update in a months time.. but still lets keep looking at the question of just how many innocent people, organisations or like minded people are you spreading demonic nonsense about on your site? Just look at the selection of smiley's you offer and might help you get some insight into yourselves. I wonder what kind of karmic payback you are creating for yourselves. Certainly if the can identify some real scams good for you,, but what about the other side of the pernicious nonsense you spread or would you just say that is collatoral damage to every other organisation,individual etc.

Sorry but I would not put two bitcoins or anything else worth money into this scam.

After the Liberty Reserve action last month, some folks wondered if bitcoins would be next. It's an unanswered question for now, but using bitcoins for cash-gifting schemes and as the vessel of choice in an alleged extortion plot against a prominent American politician (more below) certainly isn't scoring any PR points.

Looks as though Merlin's (by fiat) decided to use bitcoins in its cash-gifting scheme while some of Merlin's members reserved their right to lead cheers by introducing conspiracy theories about government "fiat" currency while bizarrely seeking a way to sanitize it by pointing to the "Jews."

Naturally the Merlin's cheerleaders -- like the earlier JSS Tripler/JustBeenPaid HYIP cheerleaders and cash-gifting cheerleaders -- want to put a chill in this board by planting the seed that harm will come to posters who stray from the company line.

"I would be careful if I was you, because you will pick up the tab later on down the road," one of them menaces. "The letter will be addressed to you."

To raise doubts about a cash-gifting scheme using bitcoins is described as "spreading demonic nonsense" and "pernicious nonsense" and "[vitriol.]"

Amazingly, this is happening after the jury returned guilty verdicts (February 2013) in the Connecticut cash-gifting cases after the indictment alleged that in May 2010, the defendants attempted to intimidate a participant who had questioned the legality of the gifting-table scheme. Equally amazingly, it is happening even as the Feds have announced criminal charges against a Tennessee man implicated in an alleged plot to extort money from a candidate for the Presidency of the United States while allegedly seeking to use bitcoins as the collection vessel.

A snippet from a June 26 statement issued by the U.S. Department of Justice (italics/bolding added):

According to the indictment, Brown allegedly caused a letter to be delivered in August 2012 to the offices of PricewaterhouseCoopers in Franklin, [Tenn.]. The letter demanded that $1 million worth of the digital currency Bitcoin be deposited to a specific Bitcoin account to prevent the release of the purportedly stolen [Mitt] Romney tax returns. The letter also invited interested parties who wanted the allegedly stolen Romney tax documents to be released to contribute $1 million to another Bitcoin account.

USDOJ: Tennessee Man Indicted for Romney Tax Return Fraud and Extortion Scheme (http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2013/June/13-crm-721.html)

One could conclude from these circumstances that cash-gifters and extortionists see bitcoins as a useful utility and as a means to criminal ends.

Of course, every good cash-gifting scam needs a good storyline. Merlin's points to its purported "complex mathematical models" rather like Frederick Mann did to sanitize JSS/JBP and Trevor Cook did to sanitize his epic Ponzi scheme in Minnesota that gathered $194 million in part by duping people into believing his "returns" were possible because the scheme was able to borrow trading money under "Shariah law" and didn't have to pay interest to the bankers.

So, now we have bitcoins purportedly used in an international cash-gifting scheme that apparently still is operating even after the Liberty Reserve prosecution was announced last month and even after the verdicts in the Connecticut cases -- and we have allegations in Tennessee that a man thought he could extort cash from the Republican Presidential nominee via bitcoins.

P.S. Wanna talk the real meaning of "pernicious?" This is a quote from one of the cash-gifting cheerleaders in Connecticut: "It’s sort of a joke that I refer to our freezer as the ATM.”

But it gets even worse in the pernicious cash-gifting world . . .

Not even members battling to stay sober in Alcoholics Anonymous were off-limits to the Connecticut gifters, according to the New Haven Register:

Gifting table testimony cites severed rabbit head, questions about link to slain Madison woman- The New Haven Register - Serving New Haven, Connecticut (http://www.nhregister.com/articles/2013/02/07/news/shoreline/doc51133353c488a191771632.txt)

From the lede of the story (italics added):

A Women’s Gifting Table member testified Wednesday that she found a severed rabbit head on her lawn while tables were under investigation, and believes it was left by someone associated with a murdered participant.
