Title: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: joniboini on June 29, 2018, 03:34:57 PM I'll make this short. Recently I've joined a group for bounty hunter (limited to Full Member and up) from Wapinter. I thought it was a regular bounty hunter group, but it turns out that this group, from my perspective, is being used to post and manage an ANN Bumping services.
Some of the screenshot I've taken before I no longer can access that group (it now becomes a private group, the invitation link that has been shared on Wapinter regular bounty group is no longer valid). http://oi68.tinypic.com/x1y90j.jpg http://oi68.tinypic.com/246te0h.jpg It is a different screenshot, one taken from my phone while the other taken from my laptop of one message. If it is not strong enough you can ask BitRentX about this message, 'cause I've forwarded the exact same message to him before he suggest me to post this in Reputation. So far, here are the projects that I suspect were or are using this service: - Arianee Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4036415 Proof: on the image above | spreadsheets: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eWIVwuZwRDwhUtBBcObeKjQnNWe7X4M0DKk6hljn_QQ/edit#gid=1231985739 - Varanida Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3899791 Proof: on the image above | spreadsheets: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eWIVwuZwRDwhUtBBcObeKjQnNWe7X4M0DKk6hljn_QQ/edit#gid=1231985739 - MST Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3218759 Proof: Stupid me, I don't take any screenshot but only keep the spreadsheet link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dW_3YDxGFKiY3ENFJfwswjAywzEUL-Zq-ZIDToS0v8I/edit#gid=34656982 Some DT members have tagged members who run or participate in this kind of services (CMIIW), so how about this one? Just in case those spreadsheets will be locked after I post this, I've taken an archive before I created this topic if somebody wanted to paint the participants with some feedbacks.

Title: Re: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: Avirunes on June 29, 2018, 03:50:47 PM Do you have any proof linking Wapinter from chat and Wapinter from bitcointalk. If they both use same id /or have posted same email id or any kind of connection then this case seems easy.
Either way he is on ban I guess. Title: Re: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: digaran on June 29, 2018, 04:04:35 PM Could a banned account edit posts? if so then I would like to ask OP to do more and search for Wapinter telegram in one of his posts, do it fast because I have already posted on those 3 ICO

If they both use same id /or have posted same email id or any kind of connection then this case seems easy. Either way he is on ban I guess. Wapinter put this link in his profile: t.me/wapinter (https://archive.li/ZUphb) In that group you'll find that Wapinter (the admin of this group, the regular bounty group I'm talking about) use this username on telegram @LovCrypto. http://oi68.tinypic.com/snfcdd.jpg Wapinter post this username many times in this forum, such as: I am looking for a telegram bot developer with good experience. Please contact me on telegram @lovecrypto for details Archived: https://archive.li/FVANhhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4492377.msg40408063#msg40408063 | https://archive.li/GmNFg#selection-599.0-607.1 Maybe BitRentX can confirm whether the forwarded message that I've sent to him comes from @LoveCrypto or not if it is needed. Either way he is on ban I guess. Yes, he is. A temporary ban if I'm correct.

Yeah that would be great. :D Title: Re: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: joniboini on June 29, 2018, 04:28:23 PM -snip- Yeah that would be great. :D I have asked him to reply in this thread. Hopefully, soon he can confirm it. Title: Re: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: Lauda on June 29, 2018, 05:00:44 PM And the bumping practices continue. ::) Can you compile a list of involved accounts?
I see an unusually low amount of posts in all three threads in comparison to the bumping services that were busted before?

How do you prove that the message posted in this group is from the wapinter's telegram (@lovecrypto) account? Isnt it so easy for someone be a impersonator on telegram? you just wear the same name and dp and done. its been done in so many ico group where scammers trying to pretend like admins of the group.

Sure. Here's the list. This is the participants that wanted, or already participated on this service based on the spreadsheet. Sorry for the bad format, I'm just too lazy to put bbcode. Taken from Arianee & Varanida spreadsheets (archive above):
Taken from MST spreadsheet:
I see an unusually low amount of posts in all three threads in comparison to the bumping services that were busted before? Probably because of the rules. Only 10 posts per week and there must be 2 post gap between their post. Varanida and Arianee have just started, while MST bumping has only been done by some members (look at the spreadsheet). They really wanted to make this looks as natural as possible, IMHO. And, the spreadsheets have been made private. Wapinter also changed his username in telegram to @iamthekingr. Because of this, looks like someone has been sending me fake negative trust (around 4 hours after this thread was created) and said that I am a scammer. Oh well.

Indeed, but the recent cases of bumping was more 'complicated' than the ones we had before (e.g. less obvious, deleting previous posts, etc.). Usually when some "bumping service" was hired, the thread went up in flames very quickly.And, the spreadsheets have been made private. Wapinter also changed his username in telegram to @iamthekingr. Indeed, he messed up on this one.Because of this, looks like someone has been sending me fake negative trust (around 4 hours after this thread was created) and said that I am a scammer. Oh well. Welcome to the club.Don't forget to archive the whole threads or the proof will be gone. Tagging the newbies and jr. members is a waste of time (this is a forum policy issue), so if someone is going to handle this soon they should focus on the higher-ranking members involved. The group being called 'Group for higer rank members' and having lower ranking members in that list doesn't make sense. Title: Re: Wapinter is running an ANN bumping service Post by: joniboini on June 30, 2018, 06:16:19 AM -snip- Indeed, but the recent cases of bumping was more 'complicated' than the ones we had before (e.g. less obvious, deleting previous posts, etc.). Usually when some "bumping service" was hired, the thread went up in flames very quickly. They're adapting, I guess. They tried to keep it as natural as possible so that somebody won't know that it was bumped. Because of this, looks like someone has been sending me fake negative trust (around 4 hours after this thread was created) and said that I am a scammer. Oh well. Welcome to the club.Oh well, never thought I'll be on the same club as you do, Lauda. Now I have a custom title, 'scammer' and 'account farmer'. Damn, I was hoping to be a Lamborghini Refurbished member to compete with hillariousandco. Looks like I need to bury my dreams now. -snip- Don't forget to archive the whole threads or the proof will be gone.

So far, I think this topic already reach its main purpose (except me being called a scammer and account farmer, ofc), so I'll lock this thread. Thanks. |
