In short – “halvarez” cared more about participating than about winning.

In any big enough random sample of auctions a user with such goals should usually have:
1. A high participation ratio.
2. Very low ratio as lone bidder.
3. Very low ratio of money spent on winning compared to number of auctions entered.
4. Some bidding activity.

Any “experienced, independent accounting forensics firm” could find such other user names pretty fast.

Someone apparently spoke, thus opening the floodgates.

Wow, this is reminding me of teh Absolute Poker/Ultimate Bet cheating scandal. It wasn’t until the users started doing thei homework and comparing notes did the companies release information.

Keep on them guys

me thinks the grassy knoll will turn out to be a crowded place once this is all out in the light.

Interstate / International Wire Fraud comes to mind as a starting point for a REAL investigation… this week should prove to be quite interesting.

Also important advantage was he saw stats for last 3 days so knew perfectly how much traffic and revenue the domain gets

You know, Acro… I was thinking about a movie, too.

“The Halvarez Swindle”

So who should play Nelson?

@Bill, how about telling your family members what to do instead; see how that works out for you. I make plenty of money, malaka. 360.org alone brought in $25k.

@Barefoot – Very interesting analogy. I like the JFK overtones. As I analyzed in my article, it’s impossible to simply speculate, without having forensic evidence of the opposite from what Snapnames announced. Maybe an independent committee – or a movie – would unleash the conspiracy.
