Your money is stuck, it's complicated. Shut up, stop bugging us, and when we have some news we will let you know but we see no need to bug you will constant updates about what is happening with your money.

Did I get that about right?

No information on where the money is.
No ETA when wires will go out.
No information on where the money is that people wired into Epass and has not shown up.
No update on VV funds and access to them.


I guess folks, it's just too complicated for us "dumb folk" to understand.

I really really really hate being talked down to.

copy paste
 
fuck, this statement is very similar to the one from "Chris Mallick". There is no happy ending for this story.

Also now happy ending for Mr. Mallick - or I can't see him live happy ever after. To many people would like to get a hold on him. I think the FBI will get to him first and that might be the best ending for him. Mr. Mallick is only buying time - he knows the money is gone for the movie "Middle Men" and that is stealing but as long people just sitting tapping the keyboard and not telling the FBI about this he is a free man. He is just buying time.

he got a whole week free - when he should be behind bars. Someone should post a report for FBI. So if he run he can get on the MOST WANTED list.

The money have been used for the movie!
The movie was 20.000.000 $
Movie income 750.000 $

Statement from ePassporte. Please Read

We at ePassporte are as distressed as you, our valued cardholders, over an action that we did not see coming and as of today we still have received no good basis for it.

First, be assured that your funds are fully safe and protected. You are owed that and it will be fulfilled. The funds are secure.

Second, ePassporte is working with the St. Kitts bank to work out how all payments will be made and when. The details are complicated, because there are funds in motion and where and when they settle requires us to all be careful that we fully and properly account for all those funds and their rightful owner. This issue stems from our processing and reporting ability through the Visa system and their processor.

Third, ePassporte's most important asset has always been our account holder's. We are not going to undermine that asset by treating cardholders in any manner other than the best we can.

Most of us have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with banks and card associations that simply ?cut us off? and did not pay us. Those actions were limited to card acquiring (merchant accounts), not card issuing, which is what we do. We can all take some comfort in the fact that this situation is not anything like the acquiring side of the business.

We all fully understand that communication to our cardholders is critical. However, it does not help any of us if we are constantly updating you on the basis of the calls that take place almost hourly. It seems to us that giving you facts, based on agreements we are working on is the best form of communication. This is what we will be doing. When we know something, that is a fact, we will report it, quickly. Our staff is all working diligently to resolve these issues and the many moving and complicated parts of getting the funds returned. Therefore, please do not mistake our silence as ?hiding?, ?avoiding? or ?stringing you along?. We too have funds that are stuck in the system, as well as massive costs of operation without any income.

Rest assured that when we know, you will know and you will all be satisfied with the results. Again, your money is safe.

For those of you that have been in the industry for many years, I hope you will recall that I have a very strong track record of fighting for the rights of webmasters, program sponsors, billing companies, merchants and the industry; that dedication continues.

Thanks you for your understanding in this difficult time and for your support over the last 8 years of our operations.

Chris Mallick
For ePassporte

ThumbLord 09-09-2010 02:48 PM

Just checked and got the Account Alert as well, have send the info like twice but heh will NOT do this again, fuck it.
I just take my loss and move on ....... yep I lost a bundle.

ThumbLord 09-09-2010 02:50 PM

Shit, ya.. I guess when I read the statement that really said nothing, i was frustrated and simply missed that last line with the lil fuckers name..

Well I was a bit optimistic the other day, but if that is his statement that answers no questions at all after an entire week, then I have lost quite a bit of hope for epassporte.. :(

That is a minor bump in the road.. and if checks are an issue from sponsors.. ccbill will be no different..

ccbill will not benefit from the peer to peer money transfers which was epass's main business, however companies similar to paypal might see some action.

Dick Jones 09-09-2010 04:01 PM

I did have some hope before today's statement was released...

If that wasn't bad enough, I just got yet another payment to my Epass account despite the fact that I've updated my payment type to check a few days ago for that sponsor...

Ron Bennett 09-09-2010 04:22 PM

Below is a copy of a post in the other Epassporte thread - but posting here too, since this the "Epassporte Official Statement" thread that many are still following.

Your post above is the best plausible explanation I've read so far regarding ACH going out, but not most, if any, wires.

Furthermore, much of the virtual visa and wallet funds appear to be commingled together - so why the delay in releasing virtual visa money? ... unless, perhaps, the account(s) it's in is frozen and/or contains insufficient funds to cover all user balances.

MaxxB 09-09-2010 04:59 PM

agree that looks like funds are frozen

i sent my wire request on friday and still nothing.. and nobody can really explain why.

webgurl 09-09-2010 05:08 PM

There were many people who succesfully withdrawn money to their personal card.

Ok, so I was correct, AT LEAST one person did get a payout via their credit card. I'm glad to know I did not misinform anyone :)

How did management manage to raise tens of millions of US dollars to spend on a hobby such as filmmaking?

At least we know how David Ellison got the money.

You left out the additional $15 million spent on advertising.

So we're talking $35 million spent and a less than million dollar return... :Oh crap

maybe cm didnt use account holder's cash to finance his ego.. Pretty big coincidence movie flops and the very next month no one can access their money. But the club of the brotastic still sucking on mr malick's cock is amusing to say the least. Our money is gone.... deal with it and move on.

Look at me and tell me what you see
I am not what you think I am
Too weird to live, too rare to die
Haloed in the headlights of death
Is this Hell disguised as heaven?
Is this death masquerading as life?
So much is said, so little shown
I see no reason, I feel no end

This is not a happy ending
This is not a last goodbye
Open your eyes and stop pretending
This is not the perfect end

This is not a new beginning
This is not a last farewell
Open your eyes and stop pretending
This is not the perfect end

Stitched up like a ragged doll
Wrapped around your naked soul
I am what you know as temptation
I am the ancient deception

I wish I could leave this world behind
I wish I had the will to end it all
But I shall paint my nightmares
And things will never be the same again

This is not a happy ending
This is not a last goodbye
Open your eyes and stop pretending
This is not the perfect end

This is not a new beginning
This is not a last farewell
Open your eyes and stop pretending
This is not the perfect end

Exactly. I understand the frustrations but all this wild speculation is doing is digging a deeper hole.

You can put a fire out a lot quicker if people are not constantly throwing more oil on it.

I am hoping too... but you need to look rationally at the situation. We have all been swindled... you for 6g's, me for $500 and countless others. Positive thinking and hope will not rectify what has happened nor get our money back.

I am really curious where CM is at this point. Is he at the office or is he in Venezuela?
I would like to know

Anybody answered that question? People that requested International Wire on Friday of last week... were the FIRST IN LINE. There is no 'delay' excuse due to overload for them. Same for people who filled form for wire on Saturday or Sunday.

I'm not even sure the Wallet Money is available now. I told a few sponsors to continue to pay us via Epassporte because I was told Wallet WIRE would still work fine. This does not look good at all if no wire were received since Tuesday of this week.

There was nothing new in that 'official statement'.
