Hi,

just warning the potential users that this is clearly a scam.

By following the instructions on the page you are giving an unknown entity who just runs an anonymous blog the permission to borrow up to 100 of your BTC. Nothing in Ripple can stop them from running away with your coins.

If you trust someone you don't know with your money, you deserve to be robbed.

Edit: the Ripple website went under DDOS a few minutes after the scam was exposed on Ripple forums. Coincidence?

Pretty much the same thing I did for the PoC. It's actually a fault with Ripple's liquidity providing "feature". Without that, you can trust whoever you like, and nobody can take BTC or other IOU from you.
