Title: Highly suspicious " charity" threads for the Amazon
Post by: Rikafip on August 28, 2019, 11:36:40 AM
We all know what is going on in the Amazona, and this thread really looks suspicious, as creator just provided bunch of BTC adresses for each organization, while those organizations don't have any BTC adresses on their website.

Threads are made both in altcoin podforum  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5178372.msg52247700#msg52247700) and in  Politics & Society (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5178334.msg52290904#msg52290904) podforum. Creator atleast didn't delete questions, but also failed to provide any proof.

For me this looks like a classic way of trying to profit from this unfortunate thing that is going on , and it should be deleted asap.

Archived both topic. If there are no address from officials then it's safe bet not to fall for this trap. It looks like a very good catch @OP

I've just posted in one of those threads (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5178372.msg52291092#msg52291092), telling that it's a possible scam.
I've missed the other one though (I've hidden P&S in my settings). Good catch indeed, OP.
