Title: eCardOne.com has been seized by the feds.
Post by: Jack N Hoff on June 04, 2013, 07:06 am
And another one bites the dust! ::)

They had a bitcoin debit card that you could shop anywhere that accepted debit cards.  That had already shipped working debit cards to customers.  It seems as though the debit cards are still working though.  We shall see how this turns out...

This is more fallout from the Liberty Reserve bust.  eCardOne.com allowed you to load/exchange with LR as well. I think we are stepping on the toes of the global money mafia. They protect their territory pretty hard.

Here's the full list of the sites brought down under that civil complaint...

Wm-Center.com

e-Naira.com

EcardOne.com

Ebuygold.com

Getemoney.com

Epaymonster.com

Instandgoldng.com

JTGold.com

Goldnairexchange.com
Superchange.ru

Webmoney.co.nz

M-Gold.com

Goldmediator.com

Absolutexchange.eu

ABC-Ex.net

Nicciexchange.eu

Alertexchanger.com

Goldexpay.com

Mewahgold.com
Centregold.ca

Electrumx.com

Tukarduid.com

Entelnova.com

Tacoauthorized.com

Intexchange.com

Ukrnetmoney.com

Wmirk.com

Nigeriangoldexchanger.com

Edealspot.com

Duyduychanger.com

Magnetic-Exchange.com

Moneyexchange.vn

Exhere.com

Velaexchange.com




The scariest part to me is how many non .com domain names were seized. A lot of these were other countries. "Umm excuse me, official US business, we need to confiscate this shit."

Thanks for the list ShamelessHarvey.  Another member informed me that this was about the LR bust in the thread that I posted about wm-center.com.  I was previously unaware that this was related.

Nigeriangoldexchanger.com

That has got to be the worst name for an exchange that I have ever seen.  They might as well call themselves scammersRusExchangers.com

No, they were totally legit. This exiled Nigerian prince emailed me, he was going to pay me 10 million in BTC I just had to send him 100k in LR first to prove I was legit too. Damn feds taking down Liberty Reserve. Now I will never get my 10 million in Nigerian Prince Dollars.

Yep. LR was a Costa Rican company. Why is the United States always leading the way and being the world police?

But it is worth noting that none of the non-dot-coms that I looked at had DOJ insignias on them. Some of them are just down.

superchange.ru and absoluteexchange.eu appear to still be up, so not sure why they are on the list.

You are a very unlucky person!  You almost had it all man!!!  Fucking feds have to ruin everything! >:(

You should try to sue the feds or see if you can wire the cash from your bank account to Nigeria in order to obtain your 10 million.

I would totally do this, but the $100k I sent them via LR was the only money I had. Now I'm tits down broke. Maybe I should go start a begging for coins thread to raise the cash. i will split all the Nigerian prince money proceeds with all who back me! Honest!

It is my understanding, that outside of the Domain Registries that are physically registered in the US (.com/.net/.org) it is up to the Domain registrar how much they want to comply with Uncle Sam. It's cool to see that some of them have a "piss off" mentality towards these takedowns.. No matter how short of period of time it ultimately lasts.
