Title: PSA: newbies beware fake bitcoin clients Post by: bittheodds on May 15, 2013, 07:14:45 AM Since for some reason I'm still in n00b jail, I thought I'd use the time I serve here to be useful :)
If you follow reddit a bit closely, you'll see there have been several reports of coins stored on BitcoinQT wallet disappearing. For example: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1e530j/plz_help_analyzing_stolen_bitcoin_transaction/ It turns out there was, and probably still is, a fake bitcoinqt client out there. This has been discussed on these very forums here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=195666.0 So please please please, only download the bitcoin client from the one, and only reliable and trustworthy source: http://bitcoin.org/en/download Have fun!
