I was tasked with chairing a presentation on Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies for a group of business leaders in Santa Barbara. The budget for the event was barely enough to cover the cost of space to hold it ($4K). So, inspired by my friend Bryan’s successful day trading in cryptocurrencies (earning %1.6 a day!) I asked him if he would consider day trading the budget I had for the YPO event. Not only would it possibly increase the funds available, but, win or lose, the trading records would be an interesting alternate angle for our business leaders.
Bryan said he was too busy but had a friend who was day trading for him named Becky Gaskell. Since it was a friend of Bryan’s, I (foolishly?) relied on the security of his relationship with him and sent Becky $4,000 worth of Bitcoin (via Coinbase I believe). While initially I was receiving messages via FB’s Messenger on a group chat with Bryan, that ended so I had to ask Bryan for updates. He assured me everything was going fine and though the lack of communication troubled me, I relied on Bryan’s assurance.
When the day of the presentation approached, I pressed Bryan for the day trading records and the results. He told me Becky had doubled the value of my investment (in a month!) but that there was some miscommunication over her compensation. I hadn’t even discussed compensation, figuring that if she was truly successful, I might give her a much bigger stake (6 figures) to play with along with a real compensation agreement. I didn’t assume it would cost her any more effort if she merely piggy backed on whatever day-trading she was doing for herself or others. Evidently this is not what she claims to have understood from Bryan. From some of the communications that I was not directly privy to it seems that she believed (or at least later on claims) that not only was she entitled to all the profits she made but she felt entitled to the principal as well. And to top it all off she refused to even send us the trading records (though later claims to have been willing if we paid her $250 an hour for the task of assembling them?!?! And that was AFTER the event!). It made so little sense that we first thought she just must have lost the entire stake day trading, but we had told her that even if that was the case, it would have been OK (I knew the risk going in). The day-trading records would have still been very educational (about real risk, etc). But she insisted that she did very well with my stake.
She has refused both phone calls, texts and e-mails to clear this up (her number is +447753202592) . So my only conclusion can be is that she is just a thief, plain and simple. Because she lives in London and because I had no official written agreement with her, there is no easy way for me to get my money back. But I thought it worth alerting others to her lack of principles, especially in a field so rife with charlatans and con men. Cryptocurrencies are risky enough. One doesn’t need to add a criminal element to make it worse. So be warned if you are considering doing business with Becky or anyone related to her (business wise).
For someone who deals with large transactions, a website such as this raises questions.
