However, a currency, or even just gold, provides a lot more incentive to
fraudulent types than mail order things. e-gold can be exchanged for
national currency instantly whereas mail order stuff must be re-sold,
which entails much more hassle.

Yes that's true, but it applies equally to money orders. I used to run a mail order 
business and have taken tens of thousands of UK personal checks and I never once had 
anyone try that. Credit and debit cards, on the other hand, gave us chargeback

Personal Checks can actually be cancelled, and payment taken back, up to 6
months after it has cleared. Don't know the mechanics of such a

Why not just endorse your dollar cheques to one of the market makers and kill two

I can't see a big problem with accepting personal cheques. You just don't give out the 
gold until the cheque clears (3 days in UK). There are even ways of clearing cheques 
instantly if you want to pay extra. If you look at it that way, it's a 100% secure 
method of payment. 

I think the problem is more that there are no UK based MMs, therefore most MMs will 
incur international bank charges and mailing delays etc clearing such cheques. 

Credit cards on the other hand are a different issue as they carry a VERY substantial 
fraud risk.

It is not just GB personal checks or credit cards that MMs don't want.
Most would prefer to not have anything to do with any personal checks or
credit cards. Since they run their own business, they can pretty much do
whatever they prefer.

GoldNow accepts credit cards. They charge a 15% fee. The extremely high

Hi
I'm private investigator from Poland, and I've obtained the copy of this
software from Codex (for $3500 but what the hell it's worth it).Believe me
or not but this little thing (trojan file have only 20 KB) can easily invade
your system - without forcing you to open any email attachments !!! Codex -
is sending to me updates (containing latest bugs in various systems and
email software-it's a need for trojan injection) every week. I'm using this
system for about a year and I must say that I've earned tracking scams, and
cyberterrorists over $3. And I realize that Internet is in %100 spyied

[e-gold-list] Subject: eCurrency Trade Association.

2001-06-11 Thread Michael Moore


Revised and updated

THE GOLD ECONOMY COMES OF AGE!

Over  the past 5 years the gold economy has grown from a fledgling e-
gold  pioneered by two lawyers with a vision to an ever-expanding 
economy with more and more market makers, several gold account 
custodians, a host of merchants and many other associated businesses on 
the fringes. With a multi million dollar yearly turn over Gold is now 
used as a transactional medium for hundreds of uses.  You can purchase 
anything from coffee to computers,  pay your phone bill, invest or 
gamble, pay salaries or subscribe to periodicals.  Originally e-gold, 
as the pioneer in the field was the only gold supplier but now there 
are a variety of suppliers available and a big range of exchange 
providers, market makers and cambios to choose from.

It is expected that this economy will continue to grow by leaps and 
bounds over the coming years to become a significant influence in the 
world markets and, as a result of this, it has been recognized that a 
formal professional standard of operation and service by exchange 
providers, market makers and cambios should be put in place as part of 
the preparation for the expected expansion and new influx of clients.

There are currently about 30 Market Makers, Exchange Providers &  
Cambios (MMs, SPs &Cams) operating in the arena and it is now time to 
bring them under one umbrella and not only give them the support they 
deserve  but help them to provide a standard of operation for their 
clients of which 
they can be proud.  This does not mean that their individuality and 
style or  even their pricing structure or the healthy competitive 
spirit they enjoy will change. Quite the contrary.  It will lend them 
the support against fraud they need, give them the status they have 
earned and provide a  reliable source of business through the eCurrency 
Trade Association (eCTA) web site they desire. It will also satisfy the 
expectation of the public for a standard of ethical behavior and 
professional conduct they can rely on. 

The pioneering days are now over, the gold economy is an established 
fact and with  over a million dollars a day turnover it is time to move 
to the next stage.

This will be the eCurrency Trade Association Inc.

The Purposes of the eCurrency Trade Association include:

Provide and maintain a professional standard of ethics & guidelines  
for the eCurrency and gold economy within which each member can 
operate  securely and their rights may be protected in order to service 
their clients and customers and the gold economy effectively.

Maintain a high standard of entry to the Association.

Promote and maintain the highest professional standards of business 
conduct and practice among it's members

All remaining MMs, SPs & Cambios that have not yet applied for 
membership in the eCTA are invited to do so and to receive 
accreditation to demonstrate their bona  fide status to the world at 
large. Those who pass the application and the inspection of the Board 
of Directors will receive  their accreditation.  This application will 
need to be applied for on an  annual basis.  Currently we have 13 
Founding Members going through the accreditation process.

New customers and existing clients can expect  have their expectations 
met when they seek to find an MM or SP or Cambio whom they can 
securely  trust to provide the standard of service they are looking 
for.  They will be able to find accredited members on the eCurrency 
Trade Associations (eCTA)  web site, currently being developed, or 
alternatively look for the Seal of Accreditation on their existing 
providers site and, if that Seal is not present, perhaps seek a site 
which CAN display the Seal for their own security and peace of mind.

The Association has also included a purpose to seek out and expose 
scammers and those who intend to commit fraudulent acts within the 
gold  economy  With current and new process being put into place, the 
combined weight of the members, affiliated businesses  and contacts 
with the authorities, considerable success is expected in this quarter.

The advent of the eCTA  in the gold economy will be a boon for all.  
MarketMakers, Exchange Providers, Cambios, Gold Suppliers, Merchants, 
Service Providers and Clients alike.  It will set the future standard 
for the gold economy and will provide a criteria by which the economy 
can be judged and respected by the mainstream.  Customers will be able 
to confidently pick the Market Maker, Exchange Provider or Cambio of 
their choice knowing they have been carefully screened, have come up 
shining and have a Seal of Accreditation to show for it.  The Market 
Makers, Exchange Providers &
Cambios will have an association that supports them and gives them a 
status of respectability that encourages more business their way and  
finally, the Gold Suppliers will see an economy satisfactorily and 
stably expanding into the future mainstream.

This is what we mean when we say

2001-06-11 Thread Michael Moore

In point of fact you will find that most banks in most countries will 
charge for their services.

Some charge heaps and some little,  depends on what the bank considers 
it can get away with.

No bank is going give away any services for nothing and anyone who 
thinks they will is naive.

The first principle of banks is to make a profit pure and simple.

If you understand that you will understand banks.

2001-06-11 Thread Yahoo! GeoCities

Yes, exhorbitant banking charges are a big problem, especially for us here
in GB. Whenever I receive a dollar commission cheque I find that most of it
is swallowed up by transaction fees. Now, after opening PayPal and e-gold
accounts I find that it's a devil of a job funding them. Dealers do not seem
to want to accept GB personal cheques or credit cards - the most convenient
payment methods. They seem to want cash-over-the-counter (rather difficult
considering the mileage between USA and GB), wire transfers - what we call
cable transfers - but at a price, western union, banker's cheques, or other
outlandish vehicles which are relatively alien or expensive concepts over
here, at least for the small investor.

Hmm. I think Craig's right to call you on that - the statist sorts
*don't care* about useful. Laissez faire is about as proven-useful as a

non-corruption, and prosperity. Doesn't make them like it. Gold

But they still claim that you *will* receive the funds, and are basing it
in US$.

However, they are trying to at least be legitimate about the fact that
they are a pyramid. Their commission fees are rising (5% before May 29,
10% until June 19, 40% after June 19) to help pay off the increasingly
larger amounts of people.

So, instead of disappearing in the night and leaving a lot of people, who
can't do the math, wondering were their money is, they are just going to
fade away as their commisssion fees approach/exceed 100%. People will be
told up front that they will receive no return on their 'investment'.
Well, only if they can do the math to realize that if they're charged a
100% commission, then that leaves a grand total of $0 to play with. It is
very easy to give a 5000% return on $0.

If only the US Government was that cooperative when talking about their
Social Security plan. :)

Hmm. Maybe I was wrong to use the word "socialist" (since hardly any
socialists call themselves socialist anyway, these days). What I meant
is that e-gold is useful no matter what our politics, and for it to dominate
as I think it will, it has to be seen as something besides a system made
for a political minority like the long-time inhabitants of the e-gold list.

In what *might* be seen as good news, I heard on the TV news today
(warning: grain-of-salt alert!!!) that about 76K ATM machines in about
20 states have now stopped working, due to recent floods in Texas. I
am getting this sense of deja-vu with flooding in New Jersey last year
that caused similar system-wide outages at banks in the northeast. Are
any of you affected? I can't seem to get my ATM card to work here,
even *without* floods, but that's another (long) story...

My ATM card isn't working either, but I've only tested it at one machine in
Virginia.

egold stopped paying systemics to run the server, so they stopped 
running the server.  Bad egold.

Or, conversely, systemics stopped running the server even though 
egold had paid.  Bad systemics.

In any event, egold sued the fuck out of systemics, so now its all 

tied up in litigation for 100 years.

Hope it helps!

[e-gold-list] what has happened to digigold?

2001-06-11 Thread David Hillary

does anyone know the latest about digigold? I have just downloaded and set
up webfunds and attempted to buy some digigold for it from omnipay, but it
hasn't arrived. I heard digigold and systemics had a dispute and systemics
was no longer providing issuance server services but can find nothing about
this matter currently on digigold, webfunds or systemics websites. Anyone
know what is going on?
