[SOLVED] Problems Problems! Where’s Tyrian? Here’s where he is!
So, the sad thing happened today again, this time however with mails accompanying, that my account has been disabled. and i’ve been penalized with 330,000L$, because i had received fraudulent funds from DreamAngel Flanagan.
Of course i check immediately all the deposits etc. No where to found, and can’t access transaction history. So it HAS to be direct AV payment.
I talked with Belinda Linden, she couldn’t do anything because there was some notes, but she forwarded kindly my requests to both Echo and Harmony Linden. Told me i had to wait, and there’s absolutely nothing she can do for me!
I remind you also of the fact that i’ve now TWICE applied for Risk API, and still haven’t gotten even a reply! Belinda told me to try again.
I logged in with SLIBRealEstate Aeon, the new SLIB Real Estate Management alt, this is something VERY interesting i found out:
![]()
DreamAngel Flanagan’s account was atleast visible on search, by prior knowledge thus active, just to make sure, i searched for myself:
![]()
Yeap, can’t find myself. So i’m being suspended, the supposed payer of fraudulent L$ was not!
This is VERY VERY peculiar! Also, timing is very good, today is the weekly report date, and naturally: I cannot get all the damn numbers without being able to login! Ouch!
So, i contacted concierge again, and got Spike Linden (Kudos to him again! He really is good at his job! Even when he cannot help you, he makes you feel like he’s doing everything and beyond his duties to help you!)
Spike Linden told me too he can’t do anything, wasn’t suprised here. He could however tell me that: It’s complicated, he cannot give more info, and it was stolen L$. Ok, that’s kinda clear, if they are fraudulent, they are in some form stolen, in a form or another. Maybe DreamAngel is the one from who was stolen? I didn’t IM her or try to make contacts, i want to talk with Echo Linden first. Also, Spike told me that Echo wants to have a chat, and he also told there is some notes on my account.
Well, Spike kindly gave me transactions histories, latest and also from the 28th Oct and forwards, basicly full history he could attain! So, i start to inspect it, and cross-reference some data. There came up one someone who has fairly new SLIB account, and is not in search anymore, thus apparently suspended, but this account has WAY more deposited than the 330,000L$, which made me want to look into it in the first place too! So new account, so much deposited. Ok, i admit that can be some big business man’s alt too, so it isn’t always possibly shady, but it rings alarm bells. It was suspended, but no word from LL about that specific person at all. To be safe, i froze that account with a message told to contact me.
But what’s even more interesting that there is no payment of 330,000L$ made to me, there is no payment of 210,000L$ made to me, and there is NO PAYMENT FROM DREAMANGEL FLANAGAN! woah! That IS interesting. Thus, i cannot link this penalty to a made payment in anytime near history!
Very curious indeed! Neither there is an account which size would be relative to the sum mentioned, simply put: i can’t find a match for 330,000L$ and 210,000L$ atleast for now! So what warranted this penalty? I do not know!
I’ve always handled requests by LL promptly and precisely, doing what i can to help them resolve whatever problem they are trying to resolve. And every single time it’s been resolved fast, to the point, efficiently, and justly! Now, i’m left to wonder with no intel at all, wondering and pondering what’s going on?
All i know, i’m not happy at all. They won’t simply give me anything at all, other than: Fraudulent L$, Payment, DreamAngel Flanagan. Why not? Again, i do not know. I just know that i have to wait when Echo Linden goes at work. So around in maybe 2-3hours now, i do not even know what’s the office hours there, do they start at 8 or 9AM? In anycase, rest assured, it’ll take for Echo a moment after arriving at work to get on my case.
My hopes are that no loss will happen for SLIB at all, and business can continue as usual. Maybe implement further, new security measures, even if not requested by LL. What i know atleast, that i cannot finish weekly report before my account is activated again, and can get balances, land amounts etc. from every location, along with the ability to make announcement.
Oh yeah, dividends were paid to all SLIB group members this time as my account was suspended. This time, it was about 100USD worth. So at the moment, this fiasko is standing for SLIB at approximately 1300USD down the drain. Just like that, with a push of a button.
I will be doing everything i can, and update this post when i got more information. You can IM inworld: SLIBRealEstate Aeon or Mainostaulu Tomorrow, in order to reach me.
Operations HAS BEEN halted until further notice, and resolution from LL. Operations will continue shortly after resolution.
[UPDATE 10:20AM PST / 20:20 GMT+2] Over an hour now since it came office hours in US, and still no reply. All activity remains halted still, until we get somekind of reply.
[UPDATE 11:09AM PST / 21:09 GMT+2] Account has been activated. However i will NOT login until farther clarifications. LL has decided to take 108,834L$ more from the account. Pending further investigation. Nothing else was told to me. I will update when i know everything and what the future is. Echo Linden has not been available, JP Linden has been looking into this.
[UPDATE 2:12PM PST / 00:12 GMT +2] Got a list from LL of avatars who had paid fraudulent L$. However it was incomplete and had errors. 112k L$ is still at large, and i cannot lift the halt before everything checks out! Don’t want to risk that SLIB get’s charged for, and then the who paid the fraud L$, comes and withdraws the same money! Also, i cannot make exceptions for anybody, because that just wouldn’t be very fair, now would it be?
I would like to remind that you do have protections, and there is real assets behind SLIB, and this is not any scheme, nor scam to try and go away with your L$! Also, you do have a small protection from The Rock automatically as SLIB client, paid by SLIB for you. The Rock has been informed of today’s events (However, no reply from Eliale Morigi)
I’m again waiting an answer from LL, and this might take us all the way till tomorrow
I’ll lift the halts immediately when big enough portion has been recovered, and hopefully tomorrow i can also get the weekly report done! All my time has gone into sorting this.
[UPDATE 2:28PM PST / 0:28 GMT +2] I made the decision to activate again, afterall, 112k L$ is under 1% of SLIB’s total assets. We cannot let that stop YOUR activities!
[UPDATE 30th of November] All discrepancies has been solved, and investigations closed. It took a while, but atleast it’s done now. No financial losses occured for SLIB, some reputation/credibility damage was caused however resulting in withdrawals. I have again applied for Risk API.
wow this sucks so now we are not able to use any of our money until your account is unfrozen wow what am i going to do lol oh well i hope things get better for you Tyrian thanks for the info

Tyrian,
Thanks for this insightful, inciteful, message. It is time Lindens started giving back something to the community. They might be the creator gods, but even in Ancient Roman and Greek times the gods did lend an ear. Now is the time for Lindens to act. Do they hear us at all?
Thanks again.
Regards,
Cliff

Lol once more its not the banks, I do not trust but the lindens. I split my money between different banks to minimize risks, but is there any way to split my account between different SIMS?*g*
Hope that gets fixed soon. Stand upright until then Tyrian!

This sucks, for all party’s involved.
Keep up the good work Tyrian.
