Title: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: EcuaMobi on March 11, 2014, 09:29:08 PM I was very surprised with this post by WorldCoinFoundation
http://www.facebook.com/worldcoinfoundation/posts/208391212703921 Quote Are you looking to purchase even cheaper Worldcoins? Well, Look no further! We are currently looking to raise money for development, promotions, and also to fund some of our ongoing projects! Therefore, we have decided to sell some of our Worldcoins. The exciting news are, we are willing to sell you guys our Worldcoins at an amazing -30% and -35% market price at the time of purchase! How cool is that huh?. And not only that! we have exatcly 284,758 WDC for sale!. So don't miss out on a chance to grab on some cheap Worldcoins! We currenctly accept different types of payment methods which include: ** International Bank Transfer (get -30% off market price) ** BTC/LTC/NMC/DOGE/PPC (get -35% off market price) If you are interested in purchasing - send us a message on facebook. Minimum required purchase: 500$ (300£) Maximum purchase: 5000$ (3000£) I sent a message asking them to sell me $500 worth and I got this response: Quote Hey, Please transfer the 500$ worth of bitcoins to the following address: 17ZJDrtoMyHjyoddQCXNKEnZpuSCeCyVcr And provide us with your worldcoin address and we will send you discounted worldcoins straight away! Thanks for doing business with us, Kind Regards, Worldcoin. Note the following: 1) Address is already in use (https://blockchain.info/address/17ZJDrtoMyHjyoddQCXNKEnZpuSCeCyVcr), so they won't know I'm the one who paid. 2) They didn't specify exact BTC or WDC amount 3) I asked to use escrow (coin-swap.net) and I'd pay all fees but they rejected it. They'll sell only if I send first to an address already in use. I posted my thoughts in their post (http://www.facebook.com/worldcoinfoundation/posts/208391212703921) and instead of explaining, they just deleted my comment and blocked all further comments! WARNING! DO NOT PROCEED! Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: Nullu on March 11, 2014, 09:35:19 PM Sounds like a fantastic way to arbitrage the value of your altcoin by -you guessed it- -30% and -35% market price.
Seriously? :D Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: soulcity on March 11, 2014, 09:36:03 PM Just wait another week or so if you want the coins at 30% off. :-*

I was a dumbass that put a bunch of BTC into Worldcoin when the value was, oh, about 420% higher than it is now. I'm trying to get out. ???

Yes, I'd think it was hacked. If somebody got paid or can prove me wrong, please do!! I want to be wrong on this one. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: Nullu on March 11, 2014, 09:49:12 PM It sounds like a scam. They have absolutely no reason to undersell their own coins. They could just sell them on an exchange.

Everyone should also keep in mind that the Worldcoin Foundation actually no longer exists, though the facebook page hasn't been renamed and is still being updated. The forum is completely empty as well. Here's my private facebook conversation with them: Quote from: Worldcoin Foundation Conversation started today 5:42pm xxxxxxxx WDC selling. Is this legit? Could you please post in the Worldcoin Forum? I'm interested in about .5 BTC worth of coins. 5:46pm Worldcoin Foundation Hi, I am only selling it on facebook at the moment, if you are interested in buying please let me know as we can do this now. Thanks 5:47pm xxxxxxxx Okay, that's fine. Please send me a BTC address, and can I also have the sending WDC address? I would like to take a quick look at the address through the block explorer to look at today's outputs. Just kind of wary. 5:48pm Worldcoin Foundation Hi, We do not give out our private addresses, if you are still looking to purchase it send the btc to : 17ZJDrtoMyHjyoddQCXNKEnZpuSCeCyVcr And send us your worldcoin address, Thanks 5:52pm xxxxx There is no reason you shouldn't be able to send me your WDC address. All I want to do is validate that you have indeed sent output transactions. Of course, I would receive the address anyway as soon as you sent the coins.

Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: BazkieBumpercar on March 11, 2014, 10:19:46 PM Facebook page has indeed been hacked!!! DO NOT BUY!
Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: Thorgrim on March 11, 2014, 10:23:25 PM The old foundation facebook has been hacked.
The post is total BS. The foundation never ever had that many WDC and what they did have was turned over the Worldcoin Alliance a few days ago. This is either someone being spitefull or someone wanting to create some market chop to trade off of. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: EcuaMobi on March 11, 2014, 10:25:48 PM This is either someone being spitefull or someone wanting to create some market chop to trade off of. I think it's obvious it's someone scamming to get some free BTC and USD. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?!

I think it's obvious it's someone scamming to get some free BTC and USD. The facebook page has been hacked, yet again an insecure social network site !! Allowing idiots to post whatever they want on a page that they should not have access to. Not for one second do I think that after all of the work that the Worldcoin alliance and the community has been doing over the last few months would be thrown away by any of them. They do not need to raise funds because ALL of the work done is done by the community for free and the mention of trying to raise funds is simply not true and I would suggest that as many people as possible report the page as soon as possible Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: orco#2 on March 11, 2014, 11:46:34 PM When are you guys going to make the switch to Globalcoin? Scam free since forever.

It is unfortunate but Worldcoin seems to be the target of a lot of haters. We will not be deterred however and will continue to push forward like we have been the past couple of weeks. http://www.worldcoinalliance.net/ worldcoinforum.org Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?!

Definite scammers. Beware of the Worldcoin Foundation There's nearly a million dollars sitting in that account, and nearly 4 million has passed through it. This is why people shouldn't be okay with scammers. That's 4 million dollars taken out of crypto by ONE SCAM GROUP. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: Hazard on March 12, 2014, 12:18:18 AM Worldcoin foundation was always a scam, this hack hasn't changed much... This current scam is just a lot more transparent, is all. :D

Post by: rockstar888 on March 12, 2014, 01:01:22 AM Hacked by Doge community obviously. who else accepts Doge in this kinda of action. Gez.. Doge crap everywhere. Get a life thugs. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: EcuaMobi on March 12, 2014, 01:10:03 AM I have regained control of that facebook page.

Otherwise people can think it was never hacked. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?! Post by: rockstar888 on March 12, 2014, 01:21:52 AM Wow, I didn't suspect the OP here at first, but this post points to OP being a hacker for trying to make the matter stick.
Quote Please explain how exactly the page was hacked and how exactly you regained control. Otherwise people can think it was never hacked. Yup, unless the OP changes the title of the post, he's pretty much the hacker here. prove: - first to report - took the text, not the link, cause he knows control can be regained on these company accounts. facebook ain't a noob at this. - insist on the matter after Officially declared Hacked Hoax. Doge crap to the next level indeed dude... get a life. watch, if he keeps trying this, he's just confirming it. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?!

Quote Please explain how exactly the page was hacked and how exactly you regained control. Otherwise people can think it was never hacked. Yup, unless the OP changes the title of the post, he's pretty much the hacker here. Explain your logic! Why do you say that? Update: I just read your edit. So, you're saying denouncing a scam as fast as possible, warning people not to get scammed, and asking for full explanation makes me a scammer/hacker? I was almost scammed by whoever had control of the page. I definitely don't think "I have regained control of that facebook page." is enough to close this issue. So Thorgrim, please explain how it was hacked and how you regained control. Title: Re: *WARNING* Worldcoin Foundation selling WDC at 35% discount?!
