Title: Beware of IOTA Main Developers
Post by: yumei on August 31, 2016, 11:59:51 AM
Unfortunately all my posts were deleted in the "IOTA" Topic from IOTA Chief-Developer "Come-from-Beyond".

I feel responsible to warn all community members here of IOTA Main-Developer whose response to my lost of 10 btc (5.750 $ atm) was:

1. Dev and IOTA Slack coordinator Dominik Schiener making fun of me directly after I was scammed in their Slack-channel, telling me to "contact Bitcoin Core, maybe they will fork"

http://i67.tinypic.com/aom83c.png

2. Co-Founder and communication Manager David Sønstebø : Being rude to me and accusing me repeatedly "being stupid" from his "objective point" instead of apologizing for their behaviour.

http://i64.tinypic.com/291jf6h.png

3. Founder and Chief-Developer "Come-from-Beyond" : Finally removing all my posts, claiming there never has been a scamming and I am a liar, allegedly because I didnīt want to publish my Bitcoin-Transaction hash.

http://i63.tinypic.com/donr10.png

He ignored my response that I donīt want him and anybody else being able to associate my nickname with my Bitcoin address. Anyway, respected members on this forum are welcome to check my Bitcoin-Transaction to the scammer, as long they keep the data secret.


My ultimate advice is:

A. Donīt buy IOTA Coins in their Slack Trading Channel, the chance being scammed in enormous unless you are familiar with Slack [Scammer can change his name and pictures to the same one of the Dev, Escrow, Trader and contact you]


B. Think twice in which Coin you want to invest, IOTA may be interesting but do you wanīt to invest in a coin whose


  • - Founder is properly a childish smartass, removing anything he donīt likes. "Come-from-Beyond"

    - Co-Founder is rude, egocentric and arrogant. "Iotatoken"

    - Dev and IOTA Slack coordinator Dominik Schiener making fun of people being scammed trying to buy IOTA Coins on his Slack-Channel?



If I was anyhow offensive in my post I apologize, I just want to point out that I was attacked several times from various members of the IOTA team trying to discredit me instead of acknowledge the facts which I described on A. and B.

Attached my conversation with the Scammer:

Quote
After I entered the IOTA trading channel in Slack, the user "Dominik Schiener" contacted me.
At the end of our conversation the user "Dominik Schiener" changed his name to: "Admiral Bit"

Dominik Schiener [11:56 PM]  
Hi, if you are looking to source IOTA quickly and secure I am offering batches of 1 TIOTA @ 10 Bitcoin per batch.  If you require any just let me know.  Thanks, Dom

yumei [11:59 PM]  
hi, sprichst du deutsch ?

Dominik Schiener [11:59 PM]  
a little but my English is better


----- Today August 30th, 2016 -----
yumei [12:00 AM]  
ah ok I thought your name is german

Dominik Schiener [12:00 AM]  
If you need the IOTA wallet, latest build here : https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/tag/1.0.4.beta
 GitHub
iotaledger/wallet
wallet - IOTA Wallet
 

yumei [12:01 AM]  
well can you explain me how it works with trading, do I need to transfer BTC anywhere for the bot recognizing it, or its just a OTC between me and you where we have to handle anything else ?

Dominik Schiener [12:02 AM]  
I am one of the IOTA devs so trades are secure.  You can also go to the trading channel and type "BIDS" or "ASKS" for the bot to respond.  Trades are manual so escrow is recommended if you are dealing with a regular member here

[12:04]  
Seccour or Yassin are recommended for Escrow

yumei [12:04 AM]  
ok I understand, may I ask you some questions then? is IOTA pow or pos, how is it different to bitcoin beside there is no typical blockchain, my english is poor, so I didnt understand that much. but if you donīt have time to explain its fine I will search elsewhere, but I am highly interested to buy from you

Dominik Schiener [12:05 AM]  
All the info you require can be found here in detail : https://www.iotatoken.com/

[12:06]  
IOTA has big advantages over bitcoin regarding scalability, no fees, fully decentralized

yumei [12:07 AM]  
ok i am actually installing the client, how long you will be online to do the trade ?

Dominik Schiener [12:09 AM]  
I will be on and off on a regular basis. When you are ready please use the following bitcoin address for payment : [hidden]

After transfer drop me a pm with your IOTA address, IOTA will be sent after 1 confirmation of the bitcoin

[12:10]  
You dont needa fully synced wallet to complete the trade and you can also check the IOTA has been sent using the tangle explorer here :  http://tangle.guru/

yumei [12:10 AM]  
ok thanks a lot Dominik, I appreciate your help a lot, I will pm you when I do the first 10 btc batch for 1 T IOTA

Dominik Schiener [12:10 AM]  
No probs.

Dominik Schiener [12:53 AM]  
heading offline soon.  If you decide to purchase the IOTA just send to the bitcoin to the above address (Hidden) then message me your IOTA address.  IOTA will be sent when I come back online shortly.  Current price is 10 BTC per 1 TIOTA (25 batches available)  - price is also subject to change so dont think about it too long :wink:  thanks, Dom.

yumei [12:55 AM]  
yes, actually I am downloading the data, seems like I need to download if completly before I can attach my address to tangle ?

[12:55]  
unfortunatly client is not showing me on status bar, how much I have still to download

Dominik Schiener [12:56 AM]  
You can use the address before attaching to tangle.  to give you an idea of how much you need to download you can reference the milestones here :  https://iotatangle.slack.com/messages/botbox/

May I ask, why did you create a new bitcointalk account to reply such a nonsense?

Well let answer this for you, such a nonsense could only come from IOTA Founder "Come-From-Behind".
You are as childish as deceitful.

Itīs even too embrassing for your to post under your real nickname?

This iota is definitely shit scam, they couldn't list iota on the exchanges, they hope off-exchange trades, so they can manipulate the price, selling at 20X or more.

They hyped with Asian big deal to scam people, without any real news, only hype, the traget is to sell their iota for huge profits!

Assuming that you, unlike OP who has not said 1 correct word thus far, is not a troll here is a genuine answer:

Virtually all the large exchanges has voiced their interest in listing IOTA from the beginning and are waiting for us to provide exchange-API, but unlike these other projects we are not concerned with it at all, IOTA is for real use-cases, the value of IOTA will be reflected from that, but it's not a priority at all. We chose to postpone exchange listing in order to tie up loose ends in the 'soft launch' period to avoid tons of confusion that would inevitably arise with thousands of new people coming in to learn a brand new technology.

That is the simple truth, if you do even 5 minutes rudimentary research about this project you would know that already, so now it's up to you to either accept reality or be a troll.

What is not correct from what I am saying? Please donīt make baseless claims.
I documented and screenshoted all facts I am talking about, I might have technical knowledge deficits but I am honest at all what I am saying. Btw. you are welcome to check my Bitcoin-Transaction if you want and if you admit afterwards the lie from the IOTA Founder that my story about the scamming is fictional as reason to remove all my posts in the other topic.

Everyone reading this should be alarmed that yumei registered on IOTA slack and within less than an hour claimed that he sent 5'700 $ to an impersonator without doing any checks... after that he didn't even care about his lost money but immediately started discrediting all devs...

Hey you might have overlooked several lines here and in the other topic where I have explicitly explained why I wonīt publish my Bitcoin-Transaction. Here again for you:

Quote
"Come-From-Behind" removed all my message on another topic using the false pretense that I am a lier, although he was able to verifiy the Chat-Conversation or to ask a bitcointalk moderator to verifiy my Bitcoin-transaction to the scammer.

But it seems like you do not believe me.
I have a fair proposal to you. I will show the screenshots with the scammer including his Bitcoin Address to a bitcointalk.org moderator and he will decide if it is real or not. If he decides that I am not lying you will owe me 10 Bitcoins, if not I owe you 10 Bitcoins.

I think this is a gentlemen agreement, isnīt it?
If you wonīt accept my bet and trying to excuse anyhow, please stop writing any nonsense here. Thanks

The rules are simple, provide publicly available proof = tx hash. Why would you hide it? Because you're a liar.

First, doxing other users is : bad, useless, and it doesn't help people to trust that what you are saying is true.

Second, a bet doesn't help either. Why would someone bet 10 BTC to get a transaction hash ? Really man ?

Third, if you don't to publish it publicly, then let's tchat in PM. If i find your proof convincing enough ( or not ) i will say it here without revealing the informations to anyone. So like that everyone is happy. Your informations aren't publicly available, and ( if you don't lie ) people will know that you were really scam and that this isn't just trolling.

If you chide me, you should also check his posts here and how hardly he was trolling and ignoring my arguments about my privacy being revealed publishing my hash. He was over and over again labeling me as a liar without reading my arguments.
I think this is a good lesson for him. If I wanted to harm him, he would already have the police in his house.
He and everybody else here needs to understand the importance of the privacy, especially in the crypto scene.

I just know you are also member of the IOTA Team and as for now it seems like everybody from IOTA is against me and let us be honest please. Do you really think I am lying after what I was written? The lying argument was just a reason for removing all my posts.

@yumei:
One question, just to be sure that I got your point. You bought IOTA for 10 BTC or around 5,7k $ without using an escrow and now complaining about the IOTA devs because the scammer used the same profile picture and (editable) label name of a IOTA dev?

If so, didn't you get familiar with slack platform, did you? It is a very known issue that you have to check the @<username> to identify a user. Not relying on a label name. Further, a simple research would have brought you to know that the seller is a probable scammer and not the person you thought it is.

You made two mistakes:
1) Not using a escrow at all.
2) Not doing background research of the seller.

Yes, correct my fault was not to get familiar with trading on slack platform, which is in my opinion an invitation for the scammer anyway, so they should just stop it.

But the reaction from IOTA Devs and their "support" was the point I decided to make all this one publish.

Quote
1. Dev and IOTA Slack coordinator Dominik Schiener making fun of me directly after I was scammed in their Slack-channel, telling me to "contact Bitcoin Core, maybe they will fork"
Quote
2. Co-Founder and communication Manager David Sønstebø : Being rude to me and accusing me repeatedly "being stupid" from his "objective point" instead of apologizing for their behaviour.
Quote
3. Founder and Chief-Developer "Come-from-Beyond" : Finally removing all my posts, claiming there never has been a scamming and I am a liar, allegedly because I didnīt want to publish my Bitcoin-Transaction hash.

They attack me personally, instead of speaking about the scamming at all. I just lost 10 bitcoins and they begun joking and insulting me. First this joke from Dominik and this dump defending from the founder of IOTA and the communitcation Manager telling me being stupid.

Quote
..

People with high IQ tend to verbalize only the final stage assuming that the previous steps are obvious. Jokes work in a similar manner, they require a listener to construct intermediary steps in the mind, one of the steps triggers the reaction in brain. BTW, this is why quite often we see people who don't get a joke, low IQ doesn't allow to construct thoughts chain that make other people laugh..

Well I know I have to move on... but it was too personal, as I could ignore it. So I started to personal attack them.

Great, you finally admit that you failed again.

Plan 1: Question price => Failed. Price rose.
Plan 2: Pretend scam, discredit community => Failed. Bluff called, you lost.

Must be disappointing.

Does not sound. " We dont want to be traded on exchange" enough big alarm for you?

That's hilarious. No, seriously I can't stop laughing why anyone would be interested in a porject with devs not wanting exchanges.


Assuming that you, unlike OP who has not said 1 correct word thus far, is not a troll here is a genuine answer:

Virtually all the large exchanges has voiced their interest in listing IOTA from the beginning and are waiting for us to provide exchange-API, but unlike these other projects we are not concerned with it at all, IOTA is for real use-cases, the value of IOTA will be reflected from that, but it's not a priority at all. We chose to postpone exchange listing in order to tie up loose ends in the 'soft launch' period to avoid tons of confusion that would inevitably arise with thousands of new people coming in to learn a brand new technology.

That is the simple truth, if you do even 5 minutes rudimentary research about this project you would know that already, so now it's up to you to either accept reality or be a troll.

My point is if it can be traded already then I don't think it should be up to you to decide when people should be able to trade it more safely and conveniently.

We chose to postpone exchange listing in order to tie up loose ends in the 'soft launch' period to avoid tons of confusion that would inevitably arise with thousands of new people coming in to learn a brand new technology.

That is the simple truth, if you do even 5 minutes rudimentary research about this project you would know that already, so now it's up to you to either accept reality or be a troll.

My point is if it can be traded already then I don't think it should be up to you to decide when people should be able to trade it more safely and conveniently.


Of course it is. People selling and buying OTC is not something we can prevent or even care to prevent, it is 100% up to the adults making choices for themselves. But when you open a market on the largest exchanges you suddenly have a huge influx of complete newbies who take up A LOT of time and effort, we didn't want that until we had resolved all the loose ends that revolutionary technology inevitably brings. IOTA, while being inherently the most decentralized architecture from a technology POV due to impossibility of forks and no decoupling of verification, as well as completely fair ICO with zero premine, is still mostly focused on real world adoption via companies. So while it's grassroots and activist in one sense, it is very much a pragmatic real world technology movement rather than an ideological one, so therefore it is entirely up to us how to best execute it, which we have been 100% open about from day 1.

Does not sound. " We dont want to be traded on exchange" enough big alarm for you?

That's hilarious. No, seriously I can't stop laughing why anyone would be interested in a porject with devs not wanting exchanges.

You should at least stop the trading in your Slack Channel, when I connected to iotatangle.slack.com as a Slack Newbie, the appearance was that IOTA Team is controlling this chat. But a scammer conntacting me with the same name and picture like one of your IOTA Devs, inspired confidence. That was the reason I was scammed.

@yumei:
One question, just to be sure that I got your point. You bought IOTA for 10 BTC or around 5,7k $ without using an escrow and now complaining about the IOTA devs because the scammer used the same profile picture and (editable) label name of a IOTA dev?

If so, didn't you get familiar with slack platform, did you? It is a very known issue that you have to check the @<username> to identify a user. Not relying on a label name. Further, a simple research would have brought you to know that the seller is a probable scammer and not the person you thought it is.

You made two mistakes:
1) Not using a escrow at all.
2) Not doing background research of the seller.

Yes, correct my fault was not to get familiar with trading on slack platform, which is in my opinion an invitation for the scammer anyway, so they should just stop it.

But the reaction from IOTA Devs and their "support" was the point I decided to make all this one publish.

Quote
1. Dev and IOTA Slack coordinator Dominik Schiener making fun of me directly after I was scammed in their Slack-channel, telling me to "contact Bitcoin Core, maybe they will fork"
Quote
2. Co-Founder and communication Manager David Sønstebø : Being rude to me and accusing me repeatedly "being stupid" from his "objective point" instead of apologizing for their behaviour.
Quote
3. Founder and Chief-Developer "Come-from-Beyond" : Finally removing all my posts, claiming there never has been a scamming and I am a liar, allegedly because I didnīt want to publish my Bitcoin-Transaction hash.

They attack me personally, instead of speaking about the scamming at all. I just lost 10 bitcoins and they begun joking and insulting me. First this joke from Dominik and this dump defending from the founder of IOTA and the communitcation Manager telling me being stupid.

Quote
..

People with high IQ tend to verbalize only the final stage assuming that the previous steps are obvious. Jokes work in a similar manner, they require a listener to construct intermediary steps in the mind, one of the steps triggers the reaction in brain. BTW, this is why quite often we see people who don't get a joke, low IQ doesn't allow to construct thoughts chain that make other people laugh..

Well I know I have to move on... but it was too personal, as I could ignore it. So I started to personal attack them.


You should take your meds and stay away from crypto, its not for you.

Hey guys!

I will show the screenshots with the scammer including his Bitcoin Address to a bitcointalk.org moderator

While I'm not a moderator, I reached out to yumei and asked, whether he wants to show me the transaction hash in private. He then send me an archive link of Slack, which I couldn't check out, as well as a transaction hash. The transaction confirmed on 2016-06-20 and it shows the movement of 10 BTC.

I asked yumei to sign a message with the key used to sign the transaction input, and I asked when the alleged trade took place, because the conversation he posted showed a link to a release (https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/tag/1.0.4.beta) on GitHub, which was released only four days ago. I'm still waiting for a response.

edit: for some reason the timestamp on blockchain.info now shows 2016-08-29. I haven't checked it with Bitcoin Core earlier..

Slack should make it impossible to use a username that is being used already by another person, and reserve the @username url username for the people that owns the url, this way it would be impossible to try to impersonate other people.

As for the topic goes, I will read later, but I wanted to get involved in IOTA a bit since it looked interesting, so I hope is nothing serious.

After signing the hash he will find another excuse and resume his trolling, just to discredit me.

By the way: Did you know that "Come-From-Beyond" is actually Founder and CEO of IOTA + JINN (Isreali hardware start-up).
Some people claiming he was also the founder of NXT: https://nxtforum.org/general-discussion/come-from-beyond-bcnext/ (https://nxtforum.org/general-discussion/come-from-beyond-bcnext/)

He divorced from his wife for a pretty young girl, despite his young daughter.

He is not able to remain faithful with his companys nore with his wifes.

I would not be surprised if he decides to leave IOTA after he preyed upon all investors.

In slack, you can't use the same @username, but you can use the same 'display name'.  2 different things.

They just use the same display name/profile images others are using.

The popularity of a domain says nothing about the content of it and even less about the possibility to seo optimize it on google.
I am doubting that you donīt care about the website, even if you try to communicate it.

As I was asked for my motivations: to give Come-from-Beyond a lesson not to insult people from a stance he is better than anyone else.

If you anyhow are able to admit your bad behavings we can come to a conclusion.. and I am not proud of what I am doing, but as you admited to having fun insulting and trolling me, that is my answer.

I'm afraid you have failed in giving the lesson because all photos were public already and information on that page is incorrect, for example, Kamila is the name of my daughter, you should fix it to make it look more legit. So I'll still continue trolling you if you come here with something that might entertain me. I'm 99% sure that you are Admiral_Bit, the same modus operandi.

EDIT: I have already found a funny bit in your masterpiece. There are very few people who could make me care about something, one of them is my wife. If you are a sexy blonde girl who is willing to move to Belarus then I could indeed divorce my wife to marry you. This would make that page 100% correct. What a plot twist, hehe. Don't bother me with your proposals if you are a bald fat dude though, I'll request a videocall via Skype to make sure you don't fake your pics.

So why did you requested to remove the facebook website and your photo here on forum if you donīt care?
I think you prefered to stay anonymous over the years, moreover I think internally you are steaming with rage. None of your photos were public under your name neither findable on google or facebook.

You should give the website creator at least some credits searching vkontakte which is widly unknown out of russia, keeping in mind your ex-wife / actual wife couldnīt resist to upload some family photos. By the way, my offer about the conclusion was honest.

You entered slack as a new user, "not speaking english very well" and "just learning about IOTA". 5 minutes later you have lost 10 BTC in a scam. If you think that's even a half ass decent attempt at trolling you are truly a standard retard.

Does not sound. " We dont want to be traded on exchange" enough big alarm for you?

That's hilarious. No, seriously I can't stop laughing why anyone would be interested in a porject with devs not wanting exchanges.

No Blockchain. No exchange sites. Only scammytrades inside that shady SlCrack Channel Alley.

But they wanna have Bitcoins for their shit? Oh, really? Not DOGE or maybe some NXT ?

Indeed no blockchain, blockchains are quite inefficient compared to IOTA's Tangle. We made the Tangle not because we wanted to out of sheer curiosity, but because we HAD to in order to enable Internet-of-Things microtransactions and datatransfer with data integrity. The 'blocks' of blockchains are bottlenecks, it's an extremely inefficient architecture for a host of applications, including data transfer.

No exchange sites, indeed we didn't do this project for quick money from a pump and dump. Hell, we didn't even premine a single iota for anyone in the team, we chose this to ensure a 100% fair distribution, so none of the founders hold any larger amount than any Ethereum holder had at start, and the quantity they hold they had to buy like everyone else. All the exchanges are eagerly lined up and will make an official co-announcement with us very soon.

No Blockchain. No exchange sites. Only scammytrades inside that shady SlCrack Channel Alley.

But they wanna have Bitcoins for their shit? Oh, really? Not DOGE or maybe some NXT ?

Yes, scary stuff.

Beware "Sergey Ivancheglo" aka "Come-From-Beyond" he is a  narcissistic scammer. You should really NOT invest in IOTA.

I found a good use to this site created by you, btw. When people approach me asking if it's really my site I know that they were googling for my name.  :D
