Bought code in August from 3rd party that went down yesterday. Just how are they determining that a 3rd party that far back sold codes.

I don't think the OP is blaming NOKIA , but by looking at other posts on multiple sites , seems like NFPS & Rockets are killing lots of codes from resellers , and referring them to the reseller in question .

Yes he posted a retirement anouncement..

to prove that Can I copy and past the paypal transaction here? that contain email address and names and amount of money....
to prove the code is not valid why its not valid.... Can I C/P the pm from another site's admin?
If these both things is not violating this site rules I could do that. I need an answer from a RED

Both Sites Rocket and NFPS want any reseller who P/U codes from their prospective sites ..to get in touch with those sites they got there Don,s from so those various Don,s can be verified....and once they are verified those Don,s will be reactivated ..as was stated back on 1-12-12 in about thirty days this event would take place...as the database was compromised ...unauthorized don,s were at this point being sold by those also calling themselves resellers...those who purchased from a reseller are urged to get in touch with whom you made the purchase and request that the reseller get in touch with either IKSRockets.cox or IKSPrivateserver.cox

the first one no
here is the second one you need to read it more thoroughly
It does not state Nokia was not an authorized seller at other sites
It does not state Nokia stole the codes
c and p from nfps staff
just as is said in the banner.. you MUST go to the web site (where you purchased the Code) and ask...
We can do NOTHING here..
Sorry.. I would and as would ALL The Staff here help you..... WE CAN'T... The problem is with the people who stole the codes from NFPS..
They live (or lived) on the Beta Site.. Nokia was NEVER allowed to sell codes on this site.. You are going to need to ask on THAT site....
We have been telling people for two years that we will NOT allow resellers on this site.. THIS IS EXACTLY - EXACTLY why....

You're right, but don't help on the hit too much. And its not Rocket official site fault... its resellers from buying from an unreliable source, and made us think it was from the official site.

funny couldnt find this post in this thread,,,anywho
few thoughts about this,,,
- why would you NOt name these resellers so the community here and everywhere
is aware?
- why would you choose to DEACTIVATE every code that were in fact still ACTIVE?
- if i buy 10 codes and wish to resell them to friends, why are you automatically thinking
its to SAVE?? NOT all peeps who donate want to use YOUR payyees,,,they want as much
protection and annonymity as the next peep thefore had/ the option of PP or other methods
- my code was deactivated and yet was NEVER bought by ownzyou, something smells funny
when you automatically deactivate ALL codes ONLY sold by resellers and WE peeps
are forced to take it up with reseller...YOU very well know YOU guys can check a code to see if its active or NOT
why not allow endusers who had their code active ask you guys to reactivate it if you can point to
which reseller they bougfht it from?? who cares where the reseller got it from? BUT you guys can check if code was bought
by which reseller
fact remains it was an active
code, right?? otherwise it looks like its no less than theft, by YOU, rocket company.,,its the appearance
understand the point??

You are right most likely, hopefully it has nothing to do directly with NOKIA.
Still,IMO this has to do with the main service and as many have mentioned the fault lies with them and no one else. They advertized resellers welcome and.... lets face it, have now either claimed they were incompetent in doing that business with them safely or some sort of hack was done because of such business dealings.
Either way it is the people that bought codes thru these authorized dealers/dealer that have to pay?
Unless nfps is going to step up and try to make things right people will assume this is just a cash grab cause they felt they could not wait for active paid customers codes to expire.
Nostradamus
02-13-2013, 04:26 AM
people are going to assume things regardless how they do it. get over it and move on is the best advice for everyone and really only is a cash grab if you are stupid enough to buy another code from them ... go someplace else as there is plenty of them to choose from and quite honestly anybody having a code for more than 2 weeks got their moneys worth, at least according to the going DN rates

What I don't understand is I bought codes from Oscar and Nokia. Oscar's codes are still working and Nokia's aren't. If all the resellers codes were shut down why is this? I don't accept that Nfps database was hacked and the numbers stolen. I would accept that their site had a mole who was stealing codes and selling cheaply to certain re-sellers who sold them to us and now we have useless codes. Too much of a coincidence that a major reseller "retired" from this site ,just before the poop hit the fan.

It is my understanding, although I haven't seen it officially, is that if the reseller contacts NFPS and proves that the codes are legit then they will still be good. Since Nokia is retired he will not be contacting them.

hmm I wonder what the profit was on a code.. $5 ? maybe $10 ? If that small amount is preventing anybody from getting another code someplace you really can't afford the game anyway. Your best solution would be to camp out in the electronics dept at Wally World and get your free TV fix that way

How much did these codes cost? 20-40 dollars each? And how much would a DN complete package cost, plus some PPV's?
The first month of free-TVing would have paid for this, even if 3-4 codes were purchased.

Here is something to think about. I have heard that some NFPS that were bought from resellers never went down. Also some from Rocket, bought from the person who shall remain nameless here wufass, also never went down. The only thing the people that are still down, at least the ones I know of, seem to have in common is that all use the Rocket port 35944.
PS I have just read that some are also down on 35933. Which makes this even more confusing.

Interestingly I have two neighbours, one acquired from Nokia a R***** port **911 that is still functional, another the following day acquired a coded for R***** port **944 code that was deactivated.
However, my neighbours are not upset, as they have both had their money's worth and more.

How would anyone know if he kept records or not. I have seen so many claims in years past only to turn out not to be true. One site owner claimed he had some red button he would push if Nagra showed up that would destroy everything before they could get their hands on it. Some people actually believed that or thought it could work. That owner ended up co-operating.

well just to blow your theory out of the water and there is a helluva lot of people on this site that can vouch for me on this. I knew Nokia since he first appeared on the scene. In fact his first staff position was on a site I was admin at and that was quite a few years ago.
Ok the readers digest version is we had a major disagreement on a number of things and we went toe to toe a number of times on numerous sites including this one. LOL don't believe me look in the past posts ROTFLMAO
Now whether we liked each other or not is a moot point. There is still that mutual respect there as that is the way staff rolls on these sites.
Anyway when the **** went down with Wuf I Pm'ed Nokia and told him what I would do if I was him. My advice was just walk away and don't look back as you had a good run. His response to that was maybe that would be a good idea and a few days later he was gone.
Now I am not taking any kind of credit for the fact he is gone and maybe he was already considering it or heard the same advice from other people as well. Maybe he did scam customers, maybe he uis being used for a scapegoat. I really don't know. My own personal opinion is the IKS providers can't take responsibility for their own screw ups and decided to try and hang someone else out to dry.
In closing I will add this. Either Nokia did totally walk away from this or he has a tough hide to put up with this crap. If I was in the same situation and lurking around I would have reamed a few of you morons a new ******* you could have parked a 747 in sideways

nokia did not sell stolen codes
5 of my 7 Nokia-codes are listed in the stolen pdf. They work again at the moment but surely wont for long with the impending re-shut down coming.
Whatever...it was my own risk to take, I'm not pissed at Nokia - but I'm def. not paying again & replacing them with NFPS codes.
Would NFPS have handled this situation better I'd have gotten some more.

My take on this whole scenario with NOKIA is this and believe me I am a very straight forward person and always give the benefit of the doubt.
I have yet to see NFPS or Rocket show any sign it was him. They show all the scamers web sites/links yet I have seen no mention of or confirmation of him.
Because codes he sold suddenly stopped as did some others from other resellers he seems to be the scape goat.
Why?
Because he was popular and made a good go of it and he always helped with issues? Maybe.
Because he knew it was time to get out as the heat was on? Probably.
Did he buy a block of codes on "credit" saying he would pay it back? Maybe.
Too much speculation and not a drop of proof at least what I have seen so give the guy a break.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending NOKIA but simply stating where is the proof it was him before you keep crucifying him. Maybe I am missing somethign somewhere but I have yet to see it.

I also donated to Nokia for codes that are not working. His name is listed on another site as one of the individuals selling stolen codes.

How would anyone know if he kept records or not. I have seen so many claims in years past only to turn out not to be true. One site owner claimed he had some red button he would push if Nagra showed up that would destroy everything before they could get their hands on it. Some people actually believed that or thought it could work. That owner ended up co-operating.

He gave depositions in favor of DN so denying cooperating doesn't add up. Now don't remember if he gave those as unnamed CI ? and therefore he could deny that it wasn't him and hope it sticks. There was much fanfare about it so people would not be aware unless they read the comments on a few threads at one or two sites.

i didn't but from Nokia but it seems the math shows it all from nfps and rocket's perspective....23000 codes at xxx each as no one will use a reseller now if their smart.....btw that's over a million $.........we all "re-code-up" and they close-up and go where suns/eks/japan/lowcost.....all went.... gone....probably somewhere warm

Not saying he did, not saying he did not, but I sure as hell would not believe it based on what they say. They have proved they will screw over the end user, or anyone else, at the drop of a hat. lol They are selling stolen goods to begin with. Why would a reseller be so villified when the whole enterprise is based on thievery?? In fact, you the enduser is a thief, what makes your thievery honorable, and allegedly Nokias so devious?

Just like the ones defending NFPS and Rocket? How about the cross site blame game going on now? Some are saying that tinie was the mastermind. How the hell would ANY reseller know they were stolen if they were coming from the official site admin? I have seen their spokesman say they should have known because of the price. Would you?

I probably would have done what Nokia did - up to the point I realized the server people found out I was selling stolen goods. I would not have gone into hiding nor kept the profits from my screwed customers. Simple enough to PP the profits back. Heck he had already made a killing selling codes all over the place. The fact of hiding and keeping the loot implies guilt in my book. So as usual, it's not so much the crime but the cover up that's worse.
Nokia's 'retirement' had red flags all over it after the Wuf situation. I would not be surprised one bit if SI is all over his PP account and the letters are forthcoming. And I wouldn't blame him one bit if that's the case. If I and my family were faced with financial ruin or cooperate, I'd cooperate as most would.

I have never spoken to or dealt with Nokia, but as to your reference "Nokia's 'retirement' had red flags" is not really correct.
First of all, the forums can easily crucify a member even if they have done no wrong, so leaving is a safer option.
Returning funds to members leaves a trail right back to Nokia, and the buyer, so it is similar to committing suicide! Not an option really!!
So what should he have done which is correct, probably just what he did!

i dont think its so much peeps wanting refunds, though i think those who were just 2 weeks in
prob would argue that, but form all the reading ive done, i see more wanting their codes restored
and NOKIA should have made himself avail to help rectify this by simply contacting nfps )if that is
where he got them from) and at least make an effort ...failure to do this? not only leaves
a bad taste in peeps' mouths ESPECIALY what happend with WUF still fresh on everybody's
minds and makes him look no better than WUF, and wasnt everybody (almost) singing the same
praises about WUF when he supposedly had family emergencise and retired,,,talk about egg on your face
NO different here,, how much you want to bet this should NOW make a peep think long and
hard b4 ever trying out another reseller? it gives a bad name to the rest
oh wait, they are alllllll solid as GOLD,,,so go ahead you have NOTHING to worry about,,, ;)

Bashing another member is an offense subject to banishment at damn near every website I've ever belonged to, and well it should be.
If you -or anyone- want to question NOKIA's honesty out loud is one thing, but branding him a thief or using any other negative term to define his character, especially with no evidence of such, would fall under "bashing".

I AM paying more but as the saying goes you get what you pay for!! I paid for a year and got just over 1 month of service in which time it covered itself. I am pissed, but what are you really buying??? Just fricken move on.

It doesnot
I suggest you stop assumings things We all know where this ends up
you know what, you have a point,,,i guess for some its all about coincidence,,,the list is
about resellers,,,whats the point?are they suggesting the ONE culprit they caught was owner
of all those sites and same person posing as ONE reseller with diff nics? or the ONE thief knowingly
turned around and sold those stolen codes to a handful of resellers and those resellers KNOWINGLY
took off his/her hands at rock bottom price? knowing ONE day someone MIGHT get caught
since nfps WILL eventually catch on?
it is a bit curious ,,,i mean NO one retires unless they know whatever they may say might be used against them
IF dn officials are on his tail? who knows,,,how many senior members just ups and retires right
after shiate hits the fan,,,it does make you wonder,,,im not calling him anything cuz i didnt get burned
BUT i completely uinderstand and am NOT offended hwne i read posts about those who do
in this game too many times peeps are told its all a risk and basically have NO say when they got screwed
look, we are all big boys IF no one can take the heat esp after you owe some kind of explanation or at
the very least your OPINION about why YOUR name is being mentioned? then your not
retiring, your hiding,,,imho
there have been a few resellers at this popular hang out who have offered an explanation,,,wether peeps
liked it or believed it?,,,in the end they were much happier than the effort was done
rather than nothing at all,,,lowcost,, racertv come to mind,,,,dont get me wrong
to each his/her own,,,all i knw is this, peeps are learning late for some,,,but learning
that you really dont know who's who and really who to trust,,,in that sense i agree, its a risk
this game,,,BUT MUCH riskier nowadays than only a few short yr ago, when this hobby was fun
for everyone,,,
NOW its dog eat dog and WHO pays to make these guys rich? endusers,,,yet
everytime something like these events,,,wuffman, nexiks, now all this, resellers NOT take measures
to protect the enduser, whoever else we dont know about but will prob hear about
the more and more we see court docs and more resellers attempt to pull fast one on us etc etc
who really gets dumped on? enduers for being stupid enough to take the risk
what do i call that? double standards,,,
rightly or wrongly at ITS finest,,,ok,im done,,,that was MY take :)
now you can allll dump on ME, i can take it ;)

Are you saying you should only retire when you know you might have a problem ? Its too late by then. The only successful retirements are from ones who retire before there is a problem.

In Nokia's case it appears to be more like running scared than retirement.
Now if he got busted and DN put a silencer on him and the letters are forthcoming, I take it all back.

while I could tear this speech all apart sentence by sentence I decided to only reply to the small part above. Your statement is blue is answered by your statement in red.
how do you propose these resellers protect you?
resellers themselves are a method of protection as it avoids a direct paper trail between the server owners and the enduser, but it is a double edged sword as well. It also works as another link in the chain. Every link is another weak point as well.
99i% of these endusers don't give a damn about whether what they are doing is illegal or not. All they want is their precious TV for free or as close as possible. So until the droves of idiots get it through their heads that making posts like,
"my rocket went down can a reseller PM me?"
or
"I need 3 new codes ASAP"
or
"does any servers have the porn working?"
Things are not going to get any better. If you don't like it well then pack your bags and get out of the game and then we can all discuss what we think you done wrong in your absence. IMO none of the resellers getting popped or disappearing done anything wrong. Maybe the ones who got caught tossed a lot of info out there that somebody else would not have but at the same time since you were not sitting in that office you have no idea of what was discussed and what anybody was threatened with. You really have no room to negotiate when you get caught with your hand in the cookie jar.

you see that is the problem. The resellers never left anybody high and dry. they sold codes and codes that worked. If the codes were stolen how did they ever get activated on servers to begin with? They had to be approved somehow or anybody could have just entered any 14 digit number and connected to the thing.
Then at a later date somebody else turns the codes off. The only ones saying they were stolen is the guys that will benefit from reselling a new one hmmmmmm ...

Just a little confused. First, my neighbors friend wanted me to reiterate that the price of donation is way cheap. Really, even if one gets one month, they got a bargain.
My question is this though.
My friends neighbor has codes from the betarushsale. Four codes. The two for N*PS work, but do not show up in the checker. The two R***ets do not work. They too do not show up in the checker. Why? Have they just not gotten to taking down all the ones stolen, or is it possible betarushsale could have both compromised and un-compromised codes. Oddly, why so some codes work, but they do not show working in the checker.
By no means is this a complaint. Just curious.

well if and when the dust settles the truth still won't come out for a number of reasons. First they would have to admit everything they have said so far is a pack of lies and secondly the ones to blame are running so hard and so fast they don't have time to stop and take a dump.

NFPS Announcement with regard to the Donations Fraud
It is with much regret that we have to inform you that a Trusted Employee/Helper in our organization stole a considerable quantity of Donation #s from our Database.
We have since, investigated the matter and found the culprit responsible for this dastardly
deed. The person responsible has been dealt with accordingly.

That's what they say, but I see that the server just freed up 23000 connections and are running with minimal freezing. NFPS and Rocket just overnight created the capacity to take on thousands of new accounts without having to upgrade on the hardware.

Don't understand what would make you more innocent than me or me more guilty than you?
Getting back to my original response is that I believe this whole thing is a complete hoax and don't believe for a moment that someone was able to go into the main DB and stole some 23000 codes. I would be more inclined to believe if that was possible, the so called thief also broke into the DB and stole all transaction purchase records from those who bought direct and all of the IP addresses that are connected to the servers on a daily basis. If you steal that many codes, it would also be smart to steal things that you can use as your trump card when your partners come after you.
These servicers are a group of people behind a computer somewhere in this world, so it could just be that the majority of these "other $P" are owned and operated by the same NFPS/Rocket group. With this in mind, they wouldn't give a crap if someone says I don't trust NFPS and I will buy my service somewhere else. LOL, the money will just recycle back into their pocket.

If your gong to make a public statement that codes were stolen than why can't you show how you came to that conclusion. Instead they say it will be dealt with.
So if your not than you can't know what is said is true.
