Post by: MickGhee on January 02, 2015, 12:31:31 PM
I was taken for a ride here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=911357.0

i invited alot of my friends to participate in what looked looked like a good honest business idea
no one lost anything but time
it goes to show how evil people are

why would someone do that

Im sorry if i led you into this trap I had nothing but good intentions and wanted to see what looked like a smal business owner in over his head come out okay

i should be more carefu;

next time just buy some uno - no bad surprises there. Nobody lost his shirts holding Uno ever (except maybe during the big pump last spring).

New coins is always risky. Join an established coin to be more safe ;)

It's good to get in right now. Uno has a bright future.

Thought it was kinda obvious right from the ANN, before the first post was made.

I tried to warn people to check that wallet and nobody seemed to listen.  I was honestly SHOCKED to see you supporting it Mickghee!

Brand new account launches a coin with the same name but different ticker than another that was launched just a few days before with a good idea and getting attention.  BIG RED FLAG!

So what were the Vapecoin poster's intentions? To steal some of our time? Or was it really a virus?
