shoot this ******* an email: Mod edit: Personal info removed

I wouldn't bother. Imagine the number of PMs and emails already sent to Ivan. It will just make these GBs longer than they already are.

Just my 2 cents from someone who emailed that address yesterday and got no reply.

Wait, are you actually clinging on to hope of these GBs still happening?

Guys, it's not OK to post private info like e-mail. Everyone who participated in the GB's knows this e-mail there is no need to do this.
Maybe a mod will edit this. I'm also affected and have a lot of money stuck but there are things that can not be done.

IF YOU ARE PART OF THIS GROUP BUY PLEASE READ

More than a reasonable amount of time has passed for Ivan to come forward and explain the situation.
I am now putting together as much evidence as I can to present to the relevant authorities.
I am calling on everyone who has participated in an affected Group Buy to forward me their relevant PayPal transaction details so that we have a solid case if the time calls for it.
The more evidence we gather, the better chance we have of this being taken seriously and getting our money back.

Please send the following:
- Paypal invoice from Ivan for relevant GB
- Paypal receipt from relevant GB
- Your contact details, including name, geekhack username, phone number and address [optional]

to
ivanevidence@gmail.com

The more evidence we get the better chance we have of getting our money back.
If any moderator wants to come forward and take sole or shared ownership of this email address for the sake of oversight please PM me.

If any of you are worried about sending me your personal information, please PM me and we can discuss you sending your evidence directly when the time calls for it.

If you don't get it for some reason the gist of it is reach out to paypal as soon as possible and file a claim with them

Even though it is outside of the 180 day dispute period if enough people come forward they can investigate Ivan and take action against him

Damn, looks like Ivan is on a roll here, first ripping everyone off in the Miami Sets section and now here for the 75% Keyboard model as well.

Is there any other Group Buys that he's still involved with?

Time to start conducting an OFFICIAL GEEKHACK STYLE WitchHunt.  Load up your Pitchforks and Light your flame torches because this mongrel has to be hounded into the Gates of Hell for what he's done to all of us here.  Don't know why all the Moderators are busy protecting him here, like he's still considered as their friend.  Any friend that has stolen hundreds of dollars out of my pocket would get bashed against a brick wall for several hours then allowed to crawl back into his hole.

Don't let rip-off merchants get away with such blatant liberties, like stealing hard earned cash and think they'll be loved for it  >:D .

You've been gone a while. The GH witch hunt started about two weeks ago.

He was also running the PBT Dark GB which apparently he has the sets but he's not paid the supplier.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

I feel for you guys, lucky I didn't chime in here promoting him about this version 3 keyboard, it would be extremely embarrassing especially now.

Hope it's still viable for you lot here because having the GMK Miami set and this 75% keyboard fail as well, would be criminal without any other words.  The Bastard got away with at least $30'000USD (guessing) so it was extremely lucrative for him to have done this but of course leaving us with nothing but hatred towards him.

Now we are left with broken dreams and distrust towards anybody else, who wants to run any type of future Group Buy here on GH. 

Of course this has been a big win for MassDrop and PMK.

I called PayPal in the UK a few days ago and they wanted literally nothing to do with it regardless of much of a faff I made and just told me to submit a action fraud report.

Paypal says they're not responsible since its outside the dispute window and to submit a complaint to some government agency. My bank says they are not responsible since Paypal is a 3rd party payment processor. They have forms for me to fill out to submit a dispute directly to the merchant, but said it is not likely to do anything, especially if I've already tried submitting disputes directly through Paypal.

Pretty sure at this point everybody has given up on this and Ivan's other 2 GBs to ever be completed. My bank and Paypal refuse to do anything about it, so I think this GB is dead in the water.

找个懂中文的给我翻译一下。
感谢大家喜欢RS键盘,同时很遗憾大家遭受的损失
本来在这个团购中我可以置身事外。但是我还是不希望喜欢RS键盘的朋友遭受损失。
我甚至不知道有多少人遭受损失,所以我不知道是否有能力补偿。
但是我觉得我必须做一点事情。
方案有两种,
1、我提供10个RS84键盘,给遭受损失的人员通过抽签的方式领取。
2、在我的任何一个新团购中给予一次折扣。
问题也有两个,
1、我如何知道遭受损失的人数。
2、需要有一个中间人来处理运输问题,还有国际运费。
再次感谢大家对于RS键盘的支持。同时对遭受损失的人感到遗憾。
大家可以讨论一下解决方案。

Thanks guys for liking the RS boards and I feel sorry for the loss that you guys had

Initially I thought I can stay out of this group buy (the GH groupbuy organized by ivan) but I don't wish you guys to suffer from any loss due to that incident.

I don't even know how many of you guys out there are in this so I don't know if I'm able to do anything to refund you guys or something.

However, I feel the need to do something.

two options:

1 - I'll provide 10 RS84 boards for everyone that's in the GB, winner (one board each) is chosen via raffle

2 - I'll provide a one time discount for any other groupbuys after this

I have two questions though:

1 - How can I know how many people suffered loss during the last GB by ivan?

2 - We need a middle man to handle logistics, and to handle international shipping

Thank you guys once again for supporting RS, and I feel sorry once again for anyone who suffered any sort of loss previously.

Let's discuss how can we solve this!

Or, send me an email here: 717758631@qq.com

Please find someone who uses Chinese to translate.
Glad that you like the RS boards, but unfortunately we suffered a loss.
Originally, this buy, I can stay out. But I still do not want someone who like RS keyboard to have a loss.
I don't know how many people this affected, so I don't know if this has the ability to compensate.
I feel like I must do something.
There are two options:

1. I offer 10 RS keyboards to those that was affected by this, by lottery pick.

2. Give discounts on a new buy

There are two problems:

1. How do I know the number of people affected?

2. I need for a middleman to deal with transport, as well as international freight.

Thank you once again for the support for RS keyboards. While people affected think about these options, we can talk about solutions.
Or send me an email, 717758631@qq.com

This may not be a correct translation, I just did my best.

Considering the only person with the list of orders is Ivan (and even the order form has been completely deleted now) we would have to get a new list of old participants going with some type of proof they ordered. If the 10 freebies would be getting raffled.


Screen shot from the paypal transaction maybe?

Ive given it some thought and decided that I would like to volunteer to be the middle man to get the 10 kits he has offered raffled out. As this is a VERY generous offer on his part and im not one to sleep on things like this especially with so much money involved and the tension with the whole Ivan thing (and me getting ripped off too!).


 I am willing to temporarily absorb shipping costs from him (china) to me in Colorado then distribute them to the winners. Winners will still have to pay 1/10 of the china freight and then shipping to them. But hey, at least this is happening at all! :thumb:


I have constructed a form that requires basic info about your original order and a hosted screenshot of the Paypal "Transaction Details" page for the transaction where you paid Ivan for your order. So that we can verify that you were a legit participant in the original group buy. Emails and PM's have been sent to 悬壶济世 about me voulnteering for this so once I get an OK from him I will get you guys the link to the form.

Interesting.

Nice of him to do that out of his own pocket considering Ivan ran off with every penny.

First we need to know whether the folks affected (what's left of them) want to do the drawing or a discount.

Red, if you wanna run this thing, I can arrange it on this side. PM me.

I personally don't have time to run a group buy. I mean shipping 10 boxes is fine as i have access to packing material so this wont end up costing me anything. But I'm not really into shipping more then that, collecting money etc.

How about I add a form entry for "Would you rather have a raffle or a discounted GB." And if we get enough votes then ogranize as i assume he wants to provide discounts to the victims only rather than giving tons of new orders a free ride. I think having the information from the victims about what was lost exactly is beneficial also in multiple ways. I'll be home in a few hours to post the finished form.

Aye. Unless we find someone else to organize the GB (if it happens), because I do not have time either on top of what I'm running currently.  :blank:

That is fine (if we get enough votes to start a discount group buy for the victims), and I encourage you to take charge and be the funds collector if that happens. The form will determine whether or not I will ship freebies or we find a group buy leader.

I believe his attempt at submitting a mass complaint with everybody's details to Paypal was unsuccessful. I think the only recourse left would be the local authorities or maybe the IRS, and I think since swimmingbird isn't in the US there's not much he can do on those fronts.

I have not been active on GH for a long while now, and I really appreciate redbanshee for sending out messages to those of us who posted here. I have filled out the form. Is there anyone else collective information on this failed GB that I should forward screenshots to?

swimingbird is collecting info on all the GB's that ivan ripped off here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=73572.msg2107379#msg2107379

if you know anyone that has been in this group buy please let them know about this.

I believe his attempt at submitting a mass complaint with everybody's details to Paypal was unsuccessful. I think the only recourse left would be the local authorities or maybe the IRS, and I think since swimmingbird isn't in the US there's not much he can do on those fronts.

Some people had said they didn't want to report it to the IRS and risk opening a can of worms in regards to groupbuys in general, and I think the local authorities idea fizzled out.

RS84 group buy salvage signup form:

http://goo.gl/forms/fDbzHlOJ2Z


The form will stay open for at least a couple weeks

Thus far with the handful of people that have filled out the form, everyone wants to do the raffle instead of a new GB. Just FYI for you guys. 

If you guys know others that have been effected by this GB... PLEASE let them know about this raffle

I will fill this in tomorrow when I'm back at home. Thanks for sending me a message redbanshee because I haven't been monitoring this anymore.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

I haven't heard back from 悬壶济世 yet about how long we should keep it up. But I would assume at least a few more weeks till June 1 maybe?

You just have to set the date and form a community consensus. We can open the buy (or the raffle) whenever.

Sorry to everyone who was affected by this scam. I can't believe someone would do this to such a great community. I myself was not a part of the GB but was wondering if it is possible to get a kit anywhere else as of right now? If anyone knows anything I would really appreciate the help!

I think getting a discount is better than free raffle 10 boards.
So all ivan victim from this gb can atleast get the board or maybe sell his board/spot
I dont know how many ppl join this gb. But if we go with raffle 10 free board it will hurt the other buyers who not get the raffle.
Btw im not joined this gb just give some advice.
