Title: Scamish looking email from "mining@coindesk.com" Post by: Moloch on April 27, 2016, 07:30:04 PM I just got an email claiming to be from coindesk, but the header shows it was relayed by:
Return-Path: <anonymous@webxc23s06.ad.aruba.it> Message-ID: <20160427174710.15595.qmail@webxc23s06.ad.aruba.it> smtp.mailfrom=anonymous@webxc23s06.ad.aruba.it; dmarc=fail (p=NONE dis=NONE) header.from=coindesk.com Received: from smtplqs-out36.aruba.it (smtplqs-out36.aruba.it [62.149.158.76]) Quote subject: Lost 136,000 USD in Bitcoin? This Mining Pool is Looking for You Dear Sir, we are currently waiting for someone to reach out to us and claim their mistake so that we can verify them and send their bitcoin back, but so far as of this posting nobody has been able to verify it. Blockchain : https://blockchain.info/tx/cc455ae816e6cdafdb58d54e35d4f46d860047458eacf1c7405dc634631c570d (https://blockchain.info/tx/cc455ae816e6cdafdb58d54e35d4f46d860047458eacf1c7405dc634631c570d) Answer form : drive.google.com/file/d/[censored] Best Regards. Did anyone else get this email? Based on the email addresses where I received this email, I can tell the sender got the list from bitcointalk forum profiles The blockchain link shows a tx for 0.0001 bitcoin and a fee of 291.2409 BTC... The block was found by BitClub Network... does coindesk even have a mining pool? I did not click on the google drive file for fear it is a virus Title: Re: Scamish looking email from "mining@coindesk.com" Post by: bitdumper on April 27, 2016, 07:38:09 PM 200% virus in the link. Stay away from it. A user got scammed by downloading a client for secure document exchange. The headers say it clearly. And who is the fool returning that much tx fee.

Be aware the email addresses used, exactly match my public profile emails on bitcointalk Unless I was specifically targeted, there is a good chance other forum members will get this email today Title: Re: Scamish looking email from "mining@coindesk.com" Post by: Christian1998 on April 28, 2016, 11:33:04 AM I had received yesterday the same email, it was the email i had attached in my profile here at btalk.
