Title: Address sending loads of tiny amounts to other addresses.
Post by: nibor on September 24, 2011, 09:37:30 PM

Anyone any ideas what this person is up to?
http://pi.uk.com/bitcoin/address/e1bb16a26d591fd766c1b23faec067301afa8a07

They seem to have created thousands of addresses then periodically transfer tiny amounts to these address in hash order???

Why??? Are they up to something?

Are they trying to generate transactions/traffic?

no, look closer. min payout at daily is .0005 plus it would come from dif address. And none of the ip addresses associated with the 2 in the tracker that keep sending the bulk of the 1.8~ to 1.9~ are in LV where daily is.

Take a closer look, m8.

Looks very fishy to me.

laundering money around, maybe it's a bitcoin cleaning service or just some silk road dealer washing funds.
you're supposed to move BTCs around in small amounts to increase anonymity

What is "Silk Road" in this context ? I Googled it, but all it seems to come up with is trade routes linking Africa, Europe, and Asia. I am guessing it is something other than that.
