Title: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: IIV on January 12, 2020, 02:09:19 AM Almost all of post from these New members (mostly 1 merit) account are on Malwarechain announcement thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210851
They are doing a bumping service as well as abusing merits. As well creating spam on a single thread. 1. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1837611 2. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1653300 3. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1539515 4. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1288664 5. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=933175 6. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=642457 7. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=543940 8. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=932173 9. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1653300 Everytime they post, they mostly act like they don't know anything about the project or ask question while others answer to themselves. It's not just these bumpers there are several more and the whole team of this project are said to be a serial scam coin creators. But I have no time to research and find proof of that. Anyone researching over that are welcome. Title: Re: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: YOSHIE on January 12, 2020, 07:25:39 AM But I have no time to research and find proof of that. Anyone researching over that are welcome. They are indeed multi-accounts, so many accounts they have, I take one of them, that account: bitcok (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=932173), Let's see where he takes us, of course to the connected and banned Alt account.8. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=932173 Alt account, which involved a conversation in the campaign. Accounts Connected: 1. Arek gagu (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=899574) 2. batagor225 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=939413) 3.

Topic: why is it prohibited (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5169762.msg51984954#msg51984954) Maybe this can be proof for you. Your suspicion is correct, the Alt account I linked above was involved in a conversation in the MalwareChain campaign. Proof: Topic: 📢 [ANN][POS/MN] 🔥 MalwareChain - Cybersecurity Lab on Blockchain 🔥 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210851.160) http://archive.is/wip/SJadM Title: Re: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: nutildah on January 12, 2020, 08:07:17 AM Good find. All of these accounts woke up to start posting specifically on this thread, or else have large gaps in their posting, and now have been only shilling for this project. They are likely all owned by the same person, who probably runs a Fiverr thread bumping service.
I took a look at the white paper and it seems to be all original. The fact that they don't have any sort of team is suspicious, though. Title: Re: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: Bttzed03 on January 12, 2020, 09:10:37 AM It appears that they are also doing the same on other social media channels like discord according to this post Beware: Black Hat team working at BitcoinTalk to mislead newcomers.

MalwareChain (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5216800.0) And now they've locked the thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210851)! Wonder what that's all about... Maybe they will only open it for their spammers, we'll see. Title: Re: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: hugeblack on January 12, 2020, 10:33:39 AM I hope to ask a trusted member "someone who is good at finding links between accounts" to do it (in private) or research on your own.
It seems that there are a large number of those accounts, and banning some of them will make them stop abusing for a while and then come back again with a more difficult strategy to discover. In general, it appears that the person who created the topic has something to do with this abuse, as he locks the topic and only opens it for these accounts.

All Malwarechain project is very suspicious, and I am not surprised with fake conversation and clocking of topic.

To DT members I guess it's better if they are tagged, most of them are inactive but I have a hunch that they'll get back if somehow other accounts of them are compromised and they'll get back to use these accounts instead. Title: Re: Tens of Fake accounts promoting scam (Bumping) Post by: Harlot on January 14, 2020, 04:50:55 PM Are thery aware that posting and creating fake conversation doesn't work anymore if you want to bump a thread? Or are they just faking it out for the project to think that what they are doing is really working? Well I don't feel bad for the project either as what they are doing is already illegal, they are just wasting there money on a really bad conversation that isn't even working for then. I just hope that this posts can give awareness to people who will attempt on availing their services.

I just hope that this posts can give awareness to people who will attempt on availing their services. I think that most of their clients have no idea how exactly thread bumping works, they just want "buzz" around the project, without realising that it only makes things worse for them as noone will fall for those fake conversations. Additionally, some ICO trackers are checking Ann thread activity of listed project, and based on that they give them score, so that might be another reason why they keep hiring Ann thread bumping services. |
