Title: I made a mistake. Is this your address?

I withdrew my money from BitMit (luckily it was only 1.2743 BTC) but I made that mistake I've been seeing people make. I was in a hurry and pulled an address from my address book rather than clicking receive coins. I have no idea what the address is. I made no contact with anybody during that time, whether through email or otherwise. It could possibly be a wallet that was on my phone, but I have no idea.

And that's why you should use labels on addresses lol

It seems to have movement. check if you recognize any of those transactions.
Address first used (2011-08-08). Maybe an account at some site? GLBSE? An exchange?

I know I should've labeled it, that's exactly what I said after I did it. The last transaction was a withdraw over a year ago, which makes me fairly confident that it was a phone wallet. But it was that app that I always had trouble with. Luckily, I saved the wallet file, so I'll try to see if I'm able to get it. But in any case, learn this lesson from me and don't do it yourself.

I started this thread in October of last year and had pretty much given up. However, now with the price increase, I figured it would be prudent to begin the search again. I did what I should've done in the first place and searched my email for the address. It was an address used for a purchase I made. The owner had a store, but the store is no longer active and neither is his forum account. I hope my message gets to his email. If I don't get a reply in a week, I'll post his handle to see if anyone is able to contact him.

the very same thing happend to someone who bought btc from me. He gave me a transaction adress instead of a receiving adress.
Confusing, but he managed to find where it went and to get it all back.

Good luck in your research.

P.S. i do not know this address :p

I'm guessing the wallet may not be around anymore, see http://blockchain.info/address/1WjPs68Akopyi9qJkfvRJnSbDL7Xi7vyq

Before you accidentally sent coins, the most recent transaction was September 7 2011.
