5 Bitcoins Bounty

If you can help us identify the extortionists in a way that leads to a successful police report, you will receive five bitcoins, with gratitude.CCN logo

We would need to know the following:

ID(s) of the extortionists
Location (address)
Similar attacks on other sites/companies
Other relevant information
Send your material to crypto@cryptocoinsnews.com

I'm gonna aim to do this once I'm up.

Hopefully get my self 5 BTC & get that fag caught

Same attacker that hit github

Found most of the information so far, names, social media accounts, family, etc.
Address soon.

Will email the information in my format once done.

how do you know this?

i bet the same as who hit Cryptsy recently & RarBG the Torrent site.

also is CCN the abbreviation for the web site offering the bounty ? (OP assumed we all knew)

clever advertising the site ? LOL

So, CCN got an email telling them that someone would hack their website. Is that right?
And the extortionists ask 2 BTC, that apparently CCN has more Bitcoin. They even will give 5 BTC to someone that can find the extortionists
What a stupid extortionists, he should've ask more. :D

I emailed CCN with all the information I found.

Interesting bounty,but also difficult job..they maybe anonymous,and unlocated

From what I found, he's 18 lmao
Claims he's a hacker but knows basic vb

If he has targeted multiple sites, I wonder if any of them has payed up. Would be a pity having all of this computing power and not getting any money for it.

I hope that he's at least mining some shitcoins with his botnet.

A lot of work for such a small bounty... I would have imagined a site like CCN would post a bit bigger bounty.. It is strange that a Bitcoin user, would attack a Crypto Currency

website, but it has happened before... so I guess they just following the money. In some countries this is seen as industrial espionage, and it is taken very seriously. I hope this

guy know the consequences of his actions. They also attract the attention of those 3 letter agencies in more serious cases.  :o

this is a world map about ddos attack http://map.norsecorp.com/

it looks fun :D it's basically usa vs arabs

Don't forget Chinese.. they got caught breaking into US servers all the time.

i add 0.1 BTC for the attackers. CCN are Paycoin shills.

Possibly found;
City & social media accounts
Family & his basic information
Aliases & address info

This person is very funny, trying to estortion CCN. 8) Nice try, they are smarter than you dude.

Fucking Chinese are always causing trouble and making little plastic things to sell at Walmart.

big bounty for difficult jobs,find them (attacker) is not easy job,they absolutely anonymous and unpredictable,esspesially for us,ordinary man (not hacker). i hope someone or group from this forum will do this,and make it work.

I expected a bigger bounty for such a difficult job  :-\

Did you mean, 1763 USD is not enough for this bounty?
I think it's more than enough, cuz BTC5 is very precious to me :)
