Title: Help me Tag BitGoba, likely sold or hacked account
Post by: 1miau on July 10, 2025, 01:06:48 PM
Recently, a new Member was Posting actively on the German board and I was surprised, that out of nowhere a new Account was active, which wasn't seen before.
I checked his Post history and no surprise, he was previously active in the Croation and Serbian board, where he made many previous posts. Recently, the Account switched to German, which seems to be his new mother language.

In addition, he is sigspamming the German Forum with unhelpful or even wrong statements, like that Ethereum would be a token, not a coin but Ethereum is a coin.

So, please help me tag this Account for likely being sold or hacked.  :)

As I understand neither Croatian nor German I will opt for a neutral tag for the time being. I think that if we are sure that the account has changed hands recently it is worth a red tag although some argue that a neutral tag is better. Besides I don't see a high trading risk, as he has no previous trust and doesn't seem to have done any deals in the past. So I am OK with your tag as you seem quite sure but I'll just add a neutral.

I check on his BPIP (https://bpip.org/Profile?p=BitGoba), there was no changed email or password, only woke up.

Then I try to google, AI give this answer.

Yes, Croatians can generally understand Serbian and vice versa.

Yes, many Croatians can speak German. German is the second most common non-native language in Croatia, after English.

Based on your post, it's like he can speak German well, but he's a shitposter isn't? what if we wait for him to make a post in Croatian and Serbian languages.

In as much as you have a point in the multi lingual exhibition of the users based on the local boards activities, i checked to see if he make use of any translations tool but haven’t been able to fine any evidence of that also..

I sent a pm the member  with the link to this thread, so let wait to read his statement on this and also the inputs of other forum members.

His german is quite good, so lets see if he can prove his innocence by Posting several lines of Croation and we will wait approval of an established Croatian Member.

Yes, this seems like a good idea to me. There are countries where two or even three languages ​​are spoken.
In some parts of Switzerland, residents speak German, French and Italian
not in all cantons obviously, you often see bilingual cantons

the check is all there, let us know 1miau

I know this member very well from our local Croatian board.
I didn't know he was speaking German language, but it's possible he is working in Germany or Austria like many people from our region.
He is extreme bitcoiner and lightning network promoter, but he already wanted to quit bitcointalk before and move to other forum.
Looking at his recent post history it does look like his writing style, but I will ask around in our local board.

Thanks for stepping in and checking back with him, I've changed my trust to neutral for now but if his reply isn't satisfying, I will change it back to negative as is has been before.

I will lock this topic for now, checking back with dkbit98 via PM and will edit my message here until I get a reply.

Edit: I have removed any feedbacks as I dont think there is enough proof of the owner have changed hands
