Title: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: SadPolarBob on May 08, 2018, 04:46:39 AM Howdy folks, it's good 'ol BPB here.
My account (BiPolarBob) seems to have been hacked. Please do NOT send any BTC to it, no matter how zany the request. There's a few of you on here that I've shared semi-personal info with. Feel free to PM me to verify that I'm the real BPB. And if you don't believe me, that's fine. But be sure to deal with the BiPolarBob account with caution, regardless.

Bipolarbob's trust page says this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=343899 Quote Trust summary for BiPolarBob This user's password was reset recently. This user's email address was changed recently. A Question for OP, how did you know your account got hacked? Afaik you rarely come/logged into your account.

This user's email address was changed recently. I'm just worried that the hacker will use the high trust of my account to "borrow" (steal) BTC. I already contacted a moderator to downtrust the account. I could care less about the reputation I numanoid: I figured it out when I couldn't login yesterday. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on May 08, 2018, 05:34:48 AM I tagged the account. Drop me a PM or update this thread when you get your account back, eh?
I just want to make sure nobody gets scammed as a result of this hack. I get that. I don't know you personally, but I'm aware of your insanity issues (lol) and also your generosity with handing out bitcoin and repaying people's loans. As I said, let me know when you get your account back, and I hope it doesn't take forever.Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: SadPolarBob on May 08, 2018, 05:41:56 AM I tagged the account. Drop me a PM or update this thread when you get your account back, eh? I appreciate it very much. Thank you. To be honest, getting the account back isn't a priority to me. I just want to make sure nobody gets scammed as a result of this hack. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: magneto on May 08, 2018, 08:35:28 AM With the level of trust people give the BiPolarBob account and the fact that its password and email all got changed recently, which is a huge warning sign, it's probably best to give out a warning tag even if there isn't a signed message. Exercise the same caution dealing with that account as you would dealing with a newbie with no reputation.
@BPB, when was your account hacked/when did you find out it was hacked? Was the loan request (for 0.01 BTC) that you made back in january this year by yourself or by the hacker? Hope you're all well, though. Haven't seen you around in a long while. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: LoyceV on May 08, 2018, 12:29:08 PM With the level of trust people give the BiPolarBob account and the fact that its password and email all got changed recently This doesn't sound like BiPolarBob either:I expect the blizzard company to make new online. Quote @BPB, when was your account hacked/when did you find out it was hacked? Was the loan request (for 0.01 BTC) that you made back in january this year by yourself or by the hacker? My guess is the hacker made only one post so far. Tagged.@BPB: can you sign a message? You've posted (including quotes from others) these addresses: Code: 121dhUDSFgMeNVcnJESku3JwLfTvhDobTr They were posted on these pages of your history: Code: 0.html I would make a better list if I didn't have to leave now. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: DarkStar_ on May 08, 2018, 01:44:32 PM I'm just glad the hacker was stupid and didn't do anything with the account (minus that one post). The BPB account could almost certainly get at least a loan of 0.2BTC, without a signed message or collateral.
Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: SadPolarBob on May 08, 2018, 01:53:33 PM The true BPB (myself) never keeps or recycles old wallets, so I cannot sign anything. Then again, neither can the hacker.
I'm not trying to get the account back. I just want it neg-repped so it can't be used to scam anyone. LoyceV: Thanks for all the effort in putting that list together Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC.

I won’t speculate if the OP is a troll or if BPB really was hacked. However the OP certainly talks a lot like BPB. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC.

Post by: teddy5145 on May 09, 2018, 01:35:34 AM Now that we know that BPB has been hacked, do you know how it got hacked in the first place ???
Knowing that BPB are self-concious with his security I doubt he got Phissed, maybe a keylogger in his PC? I'm just glad the hacker was stupid and didn't do anything with the account (minus that one post). The BPB account could almost certainly get at least a loan of 0.2BTC, without a signed message or collateral. The hacker should be able to get way more than that, the real BPB asked 1 BTC Loan and paid it back in 2016, the hacker could request the same amount and have it granted in just a few days.Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED!

If there would be an unpaid loan since January, we would have seen a scam accusation by now.And it doesn't makes sense for a scammer to disappear without posting an addy, right after someone offered to fund the loan.

It doesn't show any password change, which means the account was hacked more than a month ago. How long does the trust page show the "password was reset recently" warning?Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC.

I received the exact same PM messages... along with this one. I did not know it was a theft. Sorry . If I can reach the real user I will give back. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC. Post by: Welsh on May 14, 2018, 07:09:32 PM That's a shame I've given the account negative too as a result of the screen shots posted above. It's a shame you can't sign any messages as it's a real loss that such a historic account has been compromised. Looks like it was caught before any damage could be done though.
I did not know it was a theft. Sorry . If I can reach the real user I will give back. How can they think it's not theft? Seems like you might be able to get the account back if he's willing. Probably just saying that though. Title: Re: WARNING: BiPolarBob account HACKED! Don't send any BTC.
