Bitcoin Forum

Hello everyone,

I'm making this post to make everyone aware of an alt-coin that goes by TedChain as it is a scam, Several days ago it came to my attention that  my Bitcointalk account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=57803) had been compromised.
To my surprise the person who took-over the account is claiming to have a 'gaming platform' coin that goes by 'TedChain', I immediately reached out to the 'dev's and posted on their thread but was ignored.

I proceed by contacting them via Telegram to which they admitted that the account isn't theirs and claimed it was simply a "misunderstanding" but offered to buy it from me,
Seeing as they had decent community feedback i offered to sell it to them for $100 USD. For a company who claims to have a 'revolutionary' coin, They wasted my time and are now claiming to not have any money and that they're waiting to make money off the crowd-sale scheduled for July 17th.

Yesterday, "Marc" from TedChain reached out and asked me to 'authenticate' the account is mine by showing him proof which i did as you can see by the screenshots, After providing him the proof which included screenshot of my Skype ID as seen below he went through the account and attempted to erase or edit all my previous thread in an attempt to get rid of any proof.

Further proof was sent to him showing the dates of the same thread being made on my other account from another forum found below, As you can see once again he went through and modified the threads but i have included the cached version:

So not only did the owner of this scam-coin takeover my account but now they are attempting to scam the Bitcointalk community as its obvious this isn't a REAL company or dev team but rather a vietnamese ripper,
On July 17th they plan on launching a "crowdsale" to get as much money as possible, We can prevent this by RT'ing on Twitter and help spread awareness. As for the account i have already contact Cyrus and am in the process of recovery.
 

HELP STOP THIS SCAMMER!

Jimmychanga with the clone account VietnamLongRHM are a destroyer. His purpose is make bad reviews and extortion. He has ruined many other projects, with bad intentions. He create multiple newbie accounts to make bad reviews, and extortion of the victims. And all he needs is money of victims, if not, he will continue to create the bad reviews and untrue reviews. Our project have been well respected by reputable/trusty websites. We have partnered with partners who are large companies/startups. Tedchain have a high rating and going on the top ICO in famous websites, it's mean there is no reason not to participate with our project. Please do not listen to what he says, let's see what we achieved. We will work with our own lawyers.

First off your video on your shitcoin is a fake freelance video "developers are from intel/google" my ass, you fake twitter followers,likes and comments. You fake youtube subscribers,likes and views. And you have a fake project.

Hi clone account,

Harry Newton is Former Intel Engineer. He completed KYC process on the IcoBench and Foundico, and received a connection invitation from co-founders, owner of crypto site. Dmitry is a winner of Password Hashing Competition, Best Paper Award Asiacrypt 2010; Best PhD Thesis (2012). Howard (CTO) is Former Google Programmer, Blockchain System Architect, Compiler and Toolchain expert. The Youtube channel created in 2013 with 20+ technology videos (deleted), and have more 2k real subscribe. The like and comment on the Twitter/Facebook is real, they are a real human with 40% from Bounty. You can check in Bounty Thread. If you think they're fake, you can report them to the Facebook.

And now, I don't want to continue talking with rude man like you. Good Bye.

Which other projects have we destroyed? I will pay you if you can find evidence of me EVER tampering with anyone's crypto project. For what purpose? This isn't extortion, You bruteforced my personal account and are now using it to scam hundreds of unsuspecting victims.

Fact is i offered to sell you the account for $100 which ANY serious company would pay immediately, You and Nguyen Duong Hieu a/k/a GameTiny (public info does not go against BTCT rules), instead wasted my time by claiming you cannot afford - further proving you're a poor Vietnamese guy.


TEDChain's video was made by a Fiverr freelancer you paid less than $10 USD for this video, High-rating? You only have (2) votes 5-star votes which were EASILY submitted by you.
Great! Lets get our attorneys involved, I'm begging you please forward me your lawyers information as i have questions about this "TedLab Science LTD".

Tôi hiện đang nói chuyện với chính quyền địa phương ở khu vực Kampala vì gian lận này chống lại luật Internet Việt Nam. Chúc may mắn!

While i do appreciate your previous help in opening a thread, You're free to mark me red in 'trust' if you'd like.
This is a forum i rarely visit nor do i care about the account, I however do not want my name involved in any scams and that's my sole purpose for these threads.

To answer your post, The person who took-over the account claimed they'd purchased it off someone else and offered to buy it off the correct owner (me) in exchange for me not going through with the recovery process to which i agreed. It wasnt until further research that it was determined that this person and the "hacker" were one in the same (David Cheung).

Very interesting.

Account Darkwin, which you claim it was stolen from you, created this topic [ANN]CROBYTE | ⭐SOLVING REAL PROBLEMS | 🚀 JOIN THE MOVEMENT! (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2945200.0) archived here http://archive.is/2Kzf8.

Both announcement and bounty topics have been edited later to:

But what exactly happened to crobyte project?

I couldn't find croatian translation, well, for croatian project so I had to search this site on local boards and I've finally found it in russian local https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2972363.0 archived here http://archive.is/xEn7i

I was shocked to see site is gone https://cro-byte.com/ - well, not really shocked. Lets go back to announcement topic. So i was reading it to see what is this all about and I have found one interesting comment:


(translation: good luck with project :)),  which was probably translated from some other language. No one speaks like that, proper words are "sretno s ovim projektom" or "želim vam sreću s ovim projektom" but they could have been lazy to write and add one more word - so I can be wrong because Croatian language is very complicated.

Anyway, account behind this post is......


Mr. Jimmychanga. Ok, I am shocked.

What doesn't make sense is, OP posted that announcement thread and after this post:

account jimmychanga posted this:

And what is more interesting, CroByte (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1721582), another account behind ICO replied this:

(Translation: soon we will post announcement thread in Croatian local and we will have various bounties and coin drops(airdrops? - not sure -) for Croats.)

So I believe this account was previously hacked and resold many times.

Moral of this story - well known "Account sales encourage scams, spam, and account farming. "

Typical old-fag trying to throw their weight around by negging a user without even reading,
As you have seen on the post related to other Sr. members who have been helping me with the recovery process.

I've already stated the facts, I never sold the account as for CroByte i was paid to make the post by the dev whos on HF since i had an aged account; If you look at the account no further content related the crypto occurred. Overall it seemed liked a failed project as they never even got to the ICO stage and dev may have gotten arrested.

Read over the actual facts next time before reaching conclusions, Account was never sold. I found out it was compromised months later as i'm not active on this forum, Upon reaching out to the creator of 'TEDChain' they informed me this was all an misunderstanding and claimed it was sold to them, we reached an agreement that i would sell them the account in exchange for not proceeding with the recovery of it.

Since you like to defend scammers, How we all know this wasn't a 'stolen identity' is because when the original thread was made: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4744880
After GameTiny & David Cheung being exposed they quickly deleted many of the social media accounts that link to them, I have also spoken personally with several of Cheung's colleagues and friends and they've confirmed.
