I've just received a transaction of 0.0001 BTC to my address.
This is the transaction: https://blockchain.info/it/tx/0524066b5ab92b6bac0882970a3d3d60fc32f0aede8f2319552cd8992b372ba6 (https://blockchain.info/it/tx/0524066b5ab92b6bac0882970a3d3d60fc32f0aede8f2319552cd8992b372ba6)


As you can see, there is a public note from Limitless-Btc.com, but I never heard about that site before and never used it... so I think it's just a marketing technique to promote that website, right? What do you think? Anyone of you knows that website?


( Basing on its name, I guess it could be a Ponzi, anyway...  :o )

No need to ask the question - you have the answer already.  :)

(and yes, there are a ponzi)

Yes, This is just another way for people to do target marketing. They see your address on some other site or forum, and they track your spending habits. {Some sites use static addresses, that can be traced to the source}

Then they send you some coins, with a note to their website.

Just a cheap targeted advertising technique.  :(

This is the new way of advertising. Some sites use it already. Your address has been published somewhere (forum, site etc)
But I think sending 0.0001 btc is too much for such advertising. I have got small amounts like 0.00001 sent to my address with a note containing a website

So if they send some btc to our address altough its a little does that mean they can trying to hack in our own address? Or is there any possibilities what they might do for the next?

they can't hack your address, that's basically impossible, if by hacking you mean brute forcing, but if you are talking about their website being malicious, then this is another story..it could be a trap to steal your wallet.dat

the possibility could be like that, or maybe indeed sending bitcoin in the same amount as a free gift.

Another guy reported the same here => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1038528.0

Be careful. Do NOT fall for scammy Ponzi Games. There are only a few honest Ponzi Games now where you are secured by design, e.g. Nine9.ninja or www.CrazyPonzi.com. Do NOT send your hard earned coins to other scammy sites without understanding their program in depth.

Nope I mean by hacking into my wallet steal some btc or may be using my wallet for trapping other people? Is there any chance they will do it? Or this is just an usual advertising to make people go into their site to play?

Its basically clickbait. There is no reason to believe that someone is trying to hack your wallet. The idea behind this kind of "marketing" is that you think: wow someone made a mistake and put my address when they invested. This site is paying out and not only to me, but to many more. I should invest too.

It very similar to the nigerian prince thats so crazy rich, but needs the help of some stranger they got in touch with by randomly sending mails around.

It is BTC dust and it s purpose is to get you digging to find out what is it about. Is seems you did exactly what they wanted you to do.

This is interesting, its essentially free marketing that nearly everyone will look at. That's pretty cool!

Why is everybody upset at this type of marketing?  YOU GET PAID!

Actually, this might be some form of future marketing.  Instead of paying companies to market for you (commercials, radio, internet, etc...) - you pay consumers directly.

I can see public social profiles with the option to be advertised to or not.  You can simply turn on a setting that you want to be advertised and start by earning money for displaying ads on the website.

Companies then will RESEARCH or tailor their advertisements to consumers who actually use the product - they'll be RELEVANT and you get paid for it.  They might suggest a product that you actually need. 

Alternatively, you can turn off advertisements on these social profiles.

Bot-rot...oh Noz :o
