I run my home PC repair business on the side, though, and EVERY computer I work on gets checked for coin wallets. And if I ever find one, it's MINE! I just hope the owner didn't password protect it! Good catch Canary Title: Re: timk225 - This user intends to steal and scam Post by: mayax on February 02, 2015, 04:03:24 AM wow! real catch :)
Title: Re: timk225 - This user intends to steal and scam Post by: Tomatocage on February 02, 2015, 05:32:26 AM I doubt anybody who has 47K BTC would be sending their computer in for repair, but that doesn't change him being a shady.

He lost a shit ton from buying solar coins that some other scammer suckered him into buying haha Title: Re: timk225 - This user intends to steal and scam Post by: redsn0w on February 02, 2015, 12:42:12 PM Good catch CanaryInTheMine , I've left him a negative feedback.
Amazing : Well, maybe I'll let them keep a few bitcoins and let them know I found them, but there will be one hell of a transaction fee for my services. Or if I found a wallet with something like 47,000 bitcoins in it, I'll tell the owner I just decided to retire from PC repair work, and their computer is my last job, and it's free. This is unlikely to happen, most of the people who call me for PC repair are too ignorant to understand the concept of Bitcoins. And finding nude photos on a computer is actually pretty rare for me. I usually spend little to no time looking through their photos, I just Copy and Paste the photo folders to a hard drive in my testing PC and them back their drive after the work is finished so I can save them from the non-running PC and be their hero. Most photos I do see in the folders are something like 300 photos of their 3 year old little brat at the park, or their aunt Wanda's trip to the Spam festival. I have no interest in looking at them. |
