Post by: FruitsBasket on November 01, 2015, 12:42:53 PM
This user is selling stole private keys: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=627791 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=627791)
If u buy his thing, then u will 99% sure get a file with random text and no private key.. Also if u would get them it still would be stolen funds.

I think this is another one who is creating brand new accounts.
And want to spam the forum, i also saw a thread and it got deleted.
If he has the private keys then why selling them for bitcoin, it makes no sense?

Yes if he has indeed private keys, then he could get the bitcoin for hisself, that would make sense, but selling them don't make sense so this is a pure scam attempt. I think he need to be IP banned.

I think user migt downloaded/copied some private keys from directory.io or buttcoins.com and make those keys as a file and selling on here.

Its spam, just report it as such and it will be removed quickly, I reported >10 of them today and they rarely survived 30 minutes. Leaving a negative rating will do nothing, they post in a section (bitcoin discussion) where the rating is not shown and they use fresh accounts for every post.

Its easy for mods to nuke a newbie account, way easier than this.

There is a bot i think from Mitchell which do a job.
This detect new created users and report them as far as i know.
I don't know why people wants to spam a lot, really low to zero chances to scam others.
