Title: Wallet Recovery Service(s) - fake copy? Post by: PawGo on January 22, 2021, 07:24:50 AM Hello
Have you seen page https://walletrecoveryservice.com/ -> davebitcoin@protonmail.com ? I guess it is not the original Dave https://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/ -> walletrecoveryservices@gmail.com The other one (without s) has even this same subpages. I must say - very nice try... In the future Dave should buy both domains... Title: Re: Wallet Recovery Service(s) - fake copy?

The profile shows walletrecoveryservices@gmail.com and http://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/.
In the future Dave should buy both domains... That's a lost cause, phishing sites can use many different combinations.Title: Re: Wallet Recovery Service(s) - fake copy?

Double-checking the addresses is not that hard. Buying a domain might cost you from $100 to more than $1000.Title: Re: Wallet Recovery Service(s) - fake copy?

Post by: Cricktor on January 21, 2022, 03:52:31 PM Some fake dude contacted me via Github mention because last year I searched for details on how to recover the spending pin of the Schildbach Android Bitcoin wallet.
He offered the following contact email address: walletsrecoveryservice@gmail.com (beware, it's a copycat!) I nearly have overseen the subtle differences to Dave's legit contact address. As I cracked the spending pin myself, there was no urge to fall into the trap. I was almost writing a nice greeting to Dave when I did the proper checking of the contact address. Bummer, bloody fake pretender! |
