Title: Re: Account hacked Post by: Quickseller on September 13, 2015, 07:30:00 AM It seems that your account was recently (but before it was "hacked") promoting a scam:
Type: Twitter Link: https://twitter.com/btconfire/status/619128536276692992 https://twitter.com/btconfire/status/619128468815482880 https://twitter.com/btconfire/status/619128364385710082 Bitcoin Address: 1D53GvfHhuvxKsCJZLPX91oPppkWDRdqNM It was also recently willing to bet 10BTC that it was not in fact "sold" even though it pretty clearly was on or around May 15th as this is when many of it's posted BTC addy's were changed. edit: I am also having difficulty trying to get the signature to verify...maybe you should try to sign a message that does not contain the "BTC" symbol as a test... Title: Re: Account hacked Post by: tspacepilot on September 13, 2015, 08:40:11 AM edit: I am also having difficulty trying to get the signature to verify...maybe you should try to sign a message that does not contain the "BTC" symbol as a test... Indeed, the message as presented when you click the "quote" button, where the BTC symbol appears as [btc] fails to verify. So does using a "B" which is what my browser produced when I copy-n-pasted the BTC image from the web-page. The use of < > around sections of the message seems to indicate lack of familiarity with signing bitcoin messages. @OP, see if you can get us a working signature.

The OP creates this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1179091.0 on the 13 September 2015, 16:37:27 and less than ten hours later goes off-line permanently having posted just once...

It is very easy to navigate the site, unlike a few other dice sites. Also, the big community brings a sense of belonging to something big, which is great, especially in the chat. The faucet integrated within the site is great as well. However, the only gripe I have is the slow roll/bet speed, which brings the site down when compared to other dice sites. Thanks!

Do your own due diligence when dealing with this user! Additionally, he is a Fraudster. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1078437.0;all vafelcz is alt of nano-btc who is alt of Dalyb. On one side of the ledger, we have Date Registered: 20 November 2013, 02:45:02 nickaizoku u=164179 http://archive.is/UaMxR who is connected to the Alt that "took over" [BTC]onFIRE while on the other side of the ledger, we have Date Registered: 23 November 2013, 23:49:23 catlove u=167451 http://archive.is/DucmL who is directly connected to [BTC]onFIRE. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that [BTC]onFIRE was never hacked on the 8th of August and that [BTC]onFIRE is a chronic scammer with dozens of Alts. Neither nickaizoku nor catlove are the Genesis Alt TM of this series of Alts. Addresses: Wallet [107b1853ee] https://www.walletexplorer.com/wallet/107b1853ee0317a1/addresses has 20 Wallet Addresses, they are: Code: 177dYC5QNwWuMqxEZKju8qvR8T3NgKGRs8 0.00008035 205 442532 (and I haven't even started to look through them yet) Miscellaneous: Searching for email Code: new.apache@yahoo.com I've noticed: Code: Name: apachephp u=126954 http://archive.is/LlGkp is online right now. Uncanny coincidence given there are just 17 UID's out of 920,000 that have Apache in their profile... I'll wager @YoeN is an Alt... http://archive.is/75Zfh#selection-3469.0-3489.61 Title: Re: Account hacked Post by: Clement Kaliyar on December 11, 2016, 02:06:33 PM @Timelord2067 That is one hell of a detailing my dear friend. I know you have spent an aweful lot of time investigating this scam or fraudster .You are indeed a scam buster and hats off to you and my question is is it possible to file an FIR against these individuals for fraud as i have seen an FIR being logged recently in India for scamming 1.5 BTC. I am not sure about how the end results will be but in this case the admins does have their IP address and i expect them to hand over the IP address when there is a police complaint.

I wouldn't say exactly that the forum is turning a blind eye to such goings on, but they are leaving it up to the forum's participants to self monitor and dish out a kind of retribution in the form of trust, either positive, neutral or negative depending on the transgression. There's nothing to stop retaliatory negative trust, or indeed false trust from an Alt to give the allusion of trust where non exists. Most of the scams are for a couple of dollars (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1707260.msg17118351#msg17118351) so people aren't likely to go to the police for that kind of coin. Unfortunately, all we can do is build up a profile of the scammers and mark each one accordingly with Red Paint TM and hope that punters in future are clued up enough to read the trust trusted, or in my case untrusted, and hope users make an informed decision about what is written. |
