Title: how to access alternate section of site ? need to warn about scam in YAC
Post by: rocketron on May 08, 2013, 09:30:24 AM
hi all,

I have discovered a scam in YAC coin.

I have watched funds disappear out of my wallet after they have been mined.

the number of transactions goes up but the rewards quickly disappear out of the wallet, and the transactions do not show up in your transaction tab.

something fishy is going on.

can a mod please give me access to alt section so I can warn users in the yac thread!!

the same for me - but sometimes it is due to bad connection. Had near 1K coins per minute , but understood that it was just an error b\c two servers with the same config gave me much less. So restarted the miner and these invalid "transactions" disappeared

Learn something new everyday.

The first thing I did was encrypt the wallet which, apparently, prevents mining.
20 minutes later I've started again and left it unencrypted, and now it's mining.
I'd be surprised if anything comes of the YAC, but it is an interesting learning process.

Yak is working fine here, got over 21 transactions incoming with 1 completed, coins are still in my wallet, haven't vanished yet :-)
