Angela Christine posted:If she's not hurting for actual cash it gets easier. also these bitcoin intermediary services are routinely used to launder money from stolen credit cards. you send your bitcoins to some random guy who buys poo poo off amazon/ wherever for you with a stolen card, then the police come knocking on your door because you just ordered goods purchased with a stolen card to your home address now you're both a criminal and out a bunch of butts

Last I heard Overstock was still accepting bitcoin, because their CEO is insane.

Gox, only Karpeles was also using customer funds as operating funds, so it's all one big clusterfuck of scams, theft, and idiocy. in addition to using customer funds as operating funds, magic the gathering online exchange dot com also had only one real-money account that all its business was conducted throug -, and it wasnt even a business account but rather mark karpeles own personal bank account
