However, when the gold reached omnipay, it was their decision as to what to
do with that.  At the time the CostaGold website stated something to the
affect of "Our account has been hacked... and our funds have been stolen"
Not quite......The Outexchange was completed on March 16th (a Friday).  Costa
Gold was unable to reach anyone at Omnipay until Tuesday, March 20th.  NO
PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT was made by Costa Gold on their website until several
days later.  Costa Gold DID "announce" the hack in an email to the membership
on March 21st, but Omnipay did not take their action as a result of any
announcement by Costa Gold.


The OmniPay user agreement allows them to not fill an order if they don't
want to and return the gold.  However because of the above stated, they put
it into escrow.
Not quite.....Omnipay put it into escrow for two reasons.  First, it involved
10 transactions of $110,000 each to the same US bank account.  Omnipay was in
the process of requesting verification of the request because they felt it
was "suspicious." Second, it was during this process that Omnipay was
contacted by the "real" Costa Gold and the conflicting info came to light.


The OmniPay website does not allow an OutExchange of over 1 million but
instead asks for the user to call as far as I know.  It is suspicious that
Costa did 10 outexchanges instead of calling OmniPay.  It is also suspicious
that Costa has not provided proper documents to claim the gold as of yet. 
You'd think that a million USD worth would be some motivation.<<<<<
Costa Gold DID provide documentation.   Then Omnipay requested additional
info which, if provided, would have violated the law in Costa Gold's country
of incorporation.....result?  A standoff which exists to this day.
