BFCST Update: Hex Sponsorship

It's the old line, which can probably be applied to crypto generally: if it seems to good to be true, it probably is. I know some people do make a lot of money, but at the end of the day it's an addiction and it has all the pitfalls of gambling. My friend's relatively modest investment (a few thousand) grew to be worth £65,000. It goes up and down all the time, but rather than cashing out he is hoping to one day get that £1million payday. He could, of course, lose it all. I hope he makes his million, but i wish for his sake he'd taken out the 65k. It's a big dark hole to get lost in in my view, and the scammers who aren't even playing the game, instead further exploiting people in pretending to, are truly the lowest of the low, because some people will lose everything. BFC should have no part in it. Not in Hex, and not in the 'new economy', in my opinion.

 

This is the problem, the hexamaniacs or whatever they’re called may buy shirts because they’re being told to by these guys at the top, they’re probably all susceptible to being told/conned into what to do, it’s probably why they’re in the thing in the first place - and it’s what they’re wanting to recruit more of - they said as much in their livestream yesterday - offering free money to Barnsley fans to get involved. They’re looking for marks.

it’s all very wierd.

 

Laura's aunty Shell met a bloke online. Never saw his face, nethermind meeting him in the flesh. They were messaging for a while. Anyway on Christmas day 2018. He messaged her whilst she was in the pub with me and Laura. He told her he wanted her to txt him her bank account and sort code then get another man to txt her on their mobile saying they'd cheated in the men's toilets and he would transfer £50. We weighed up the pro's and cons and we got a lad at the bar to txt this bloke a kinky message. The weirdo was true to his word and transferred the £50. The weirdest thing that I've seen. This Hex thing reminds me of that morning.

 

I’ve read it three times now but nope, not a clue what you’re talking about, sorry.

 

It was an instance that was too good to be true. I had it down as an internet craze. However, I've seen no reference to it afterwards. This Hex thing with them offering people free money to get started reminded me of that instance. My mind works in mysterious ways.

 

What was this bit about toilets and cheating? I don’t get what this guy wanted you to do or why.

 

Trust you Dawson

 

Me neither I just find it funny how Stephen got caught up in this guy's weird fantasy, albeit indirectly

 

I think it’s the websites and pubs he frequents.

 

The second tweet does it for me. He might not be on the board any more, just does all the promo & marketing.

Like sorting a shirt sponsorship deal with a Football League club?

If he's in, I'm out.

 

I dread to think of the viruses his phone and computers must have just from searching for the pics he posts on here!

 

I've done some digging and it was set up by Martin Nettleton.

 

Part of it appears to be that after weighing up the pros and cons, a personal bank account number and sort code were supplied to a man no one had ever met.

Which reminds me, I forgot to say that I'm a Nigerian Prince, and for some weird reason in a story that I can't quite remember, I have to deposit loads of money in someone's bank account. All they have to do is supply their bank account number and sort code. No kinky sex required.

 

Many fingers, and many, many pies

 

The guy who transferred the 50 notes.. it wasn't wee Dicky Ashcroft was it? Can just imagine this scene after the mystery guy transferred the funds, lost, alone but strangely satisfied in his solitude (my mind works weird too)

 

Ben Mansford?

 

Wasn't Ben Mansford a sports agent before we appointed him?

 

Linton Brown is the one who's name you forgot.

Typing it out took longer than his spell as CEO.
