Title: Anyone else getting these scam emails?
Post by: BTCevo on September 29, 2014, 03:28:35 PM
Everyday I get an email from [scammers bitcoin address]@alpharhythmroots.com (I've edited out the scam address just in case) the bitcoin address begins with '1BonUS'. Anyone else getting these?



Code:
Send the bitcoins to this address
BTC: [scam address]

This is a default address from the system, and this have a bug where you send the bitcoins and then it sent you back the double of bitcoins. Hope this helps! :-)
Maybe you think this is fake, but when you get the double of bitcoins in your wallet, you need to give me a big kiss (no homo) Lol. How True You Must Make Sent Test And Say Thanx For Our Scene More Private Actual Secret

Never received any crypto related scam - phishing emails, beginning to feel a bit left out now :(  :)

Might be because I only use throw-away email accounts....really hope nobody was gullible enough to send any btc.

This is actually the first time i've seen this.

Have you recently signed up to any dodgy sites?

I think it has something to do with the bitcoin websites I've made, my email address was in the public whois. In another scam email the guy mentions one of my bitcoin domains..

Can't believe people are sending btc! Looks like they've been sending these emails for a while now:
