Why ???
MoriartyBitcoin has stolen larger amounts than this. He stole 127 BTC from user rickyjames here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1159906). That BTC is gone dude, I am sorry. HotSwap has already been tagged by myself and other DT users, but I will add this one on as well I guess. Sorry man :-\ Title: Re: 19 BTC/$14k scam by coinmixer.net/HotSwap Post by: teddy5145 on December 13, 2016, 01:55:54 PM There goes 19 BTC to scammer's wallet.
Please never use an unknown Mixer, always use a trusted mixer that has been guaranteed legit by the community such as Bitmixer and Cryptomixer. Avoid any other mixer that doesn't have any trust from the community. I'm sorry for you loss, Dude :( Title: Re: 19 BTC/$14k scam by coinmixer.net/HotSwap Post by: Joel_Jantsen on December 13, 2016, 04:54:17 PM HotSwap has already been tagged by myself and other DT users, but I will add this one on as well I guess.

Around a month now. I contribute to the forum in my own way :) I am well known in the Collectibles section, have done extensive trading on this forum, as well as managed large amounts of other users BTC for Group Buys and proxy purchases. I am also known in real life by other well known members here.

Everyone who needs to know who I am, know :) No No...I didn't mean it in that sense...usually people who get in DT,for example Lutpin/Mexxer/Vod etc are known to bust scams/find spammers/do n number of things to preserve forum's integrity.I mean they had to go a long way to climb up the ladder whereas you made it in really short time.I will be randomly dropping messages in case I need a help from a DT member,hope you don't mind that. :)...and thank you ;) Title: Re: 19 BTC/$14k scam by coinmixer.net/HotSwap Post by: Lutpin on December 13, 2016, 05:21:06 PM I haven't seen a Full Member with less contribution to the forum and or is known as a reputed member by the community as whole on the DT. usually people who get in DT,for example Lutpin/Mexxer/Vod etc are known to bust scams/find spammers/do n number of things to preserve forum's integrity.I mean they had to go a long way to climb up the ladder whereas you made it in really short time. You haven't? Yours truly was full member when entering the DT ranks (with high activity, but still full member).As for reputation, you probably don't visit the collectibles section very often. I've traded for several btc in total with zepher myself (and that's still the lower end of the range). Title: Re: 19 BTC/$14k scam by coinmixer.net/HotSwap Post by: socks435 on December 13, 2016, 05:27:03 PM This site is already been discuss here and i think you should do not trust that mixer.. we already have reputative and already tested mixer such as bitmixer and cryptomixer why you still trust that site even you already knows that site is scam.. next you do not deal again without searching it here or asking someone here so that you are far in any scammers online.

It was discovered that this guy is a serial scammer over a year ago. A simple search of scam accusations would have allowed you to see this yourself.

In the offline world those places are known as money launderers and if you're going to hand your money over to criminals then you will lose it like this. You may aswell of handed your money to a random stranger and said, can you please go and deposit this in my bank account. Sorry for your loss, but just a little research would have prevented it.

I read ppl saying bitcoinfog but its also semi scam (often down and losing coins). I also read "use LTC<>BTC ... exchange" but it's silly, as long as exchanges keep infinite logs about address-in and -out (and they do of course). So, what are real options to anonymize btc?Title: Re: 19 BTC/$14k scam by coinmixer.net/HotSwap Post by: Sigals on December 22, 2016, 04:29:23 PM Quote It was discovered that this guy is a serial scammer over a year ago.
