Post by: HEPHAISTOS on January 22, 2017, 12:14:24 AM
Enough is Enough

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1717241.1380

i like this forum and how it is managed

look at the scammer trust
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=261828
he is steel in neutral trust

Too much question, it makes me crazy

But ok I understand

It is never forbidden to steal, but it is forbidden to get caught

I am sorry for the victim but you should know that if you don't protect yourself, no one will protect you.

EDIT: You can interact about this scam in the following topic :

Another ICO scam? I'm not going to read through the hundreds (or thousands) of posts to see what's going on there but judging from the title this must have been one hell of a clusterfuck.

Shouldn't this be in meta?

Its not for the first time that anyone have scammed and the fact is this kind of scammers are still surviving only because people like us keeps on entertaining them by investing our money into their projects and then cry after getting scammed so its better to do a great level of research before investing into any projects and if you cannot manage to do a research then simply hold your bitcoins without investing them anywhere.

Everywhere scammers roam around, its not just in our forum. The biggest thing here is that we are not in a perfect position to predict which is a legit and scam project as several projects have been getting initiated based upon the same technology. This makes users get scammed and loss everything in a short.

This kind of scam project can be seen from the first time, it's not so hard to realized the shortcomings feedback and how he didn't answer some important questions from the first time. Don't be fooled by an easy way to get something, moreover with cheaper price which you don't know how it should be done. Learning and do everything possible to get your funds save.

No escrow, fake dev profile, urgly UI design, what can you expect? Difinitely 50 BTC is anothe fake figure, who will buy this no escrow ICO for 50 BTC in total? Ppl never learn, after opair, ebitz, let it ride scams in last year, what did you expect from no escrow ico?

I've tagged them, but that is already too late now. They are likely going to come back with another ICO under a different username. This is how serial scammers act.

Do not invest in anything without an escrow, or with random escrows. That's the minimum criteria nowadays IMO.

Trivial: Link in OP points to the last post; I'm sure you wanted the first one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1717241.0

The guy left more traces than he probably intended.
I was able to get access to the scammers own ICO account and to his online wallet before he took the coin offline.

Take a look at this topic for more details: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1740009.0

I have his possible real address.

If you have his address why don't you publicly post that here and if anyone lost money because of the scam they could file a police complaint regarding that.These scammers are coming back because they know that nothing will happen to them in real life and that has to end .

I can do it for PM, I can not expose people's address in a public forum and if it is not the scammer, I would be endangering the life of someone innocent.

You have to take into consideration that when people are stolen they look for revenge and if someone posts in a forum real address of the possible culprit, you are putting at risk the life of the possible culprit

It could be that Triswardhani sold his BCT account to the scammer. This is also mentioned in the XLTH discussion topic after someone who hacked into the scammers own online XLTH wallet account revealed the scammers email address and linked it to a different BCT account. Read this and the posts that follow it:

I read

https://s29.postimg.org/5e327cerb/image.png

There it is.
Google the email address crt.ferguson@gmail.com

You will see it belongs to bct user 'templar77'
You can find it in many threads on the forum, like this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=600322.msg6683579#msg6683579

Templar77 was involved in many controversial actions (Libertycoin):
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760653.0

Invest for yourself. He is the guy behind Grumpycoin and Dogenex

This is his profile page: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=150444
This is also a nice find (Honorcoin) : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=639043.msg7218665#msg7218665

Certainly someone with a "history".

I leave it to you to dig up more information for now. Feel free to send me a PM.

Oh, one more thing, just to show how ultimately stupid this guy is: the "exchange source code" that he sent out to level3 investors, contained a database dump. In that database dump, his username and password for the XLTH ICO and Wallet site were stored (password in clear text). How stupid is that? That is where the screenshots came from.

Tenplar77 is an alt account of the altcoin creator loljosh ! I specifically remember him being tagged red for that reason, go look at the trust comments, start looking for those Bitcoin addresses ;)

But so far there is no evidence that @triswardhani sold his account.

You must read the post of @iqbal26 (msg17591643). @iqbal26 claims that @Triswardhani sold his account, but he leaves out any evidence.

Why that fucker deleted my post about a scam.

So we need to DOX this guy and get the authorities to arrest him.

50 BTC..  You would think that someone would rob him if they knew he had this kind of money.

Notice those self-moderated altcoin OPs, they are mostly scams, especially when we ask questions they delete our posts, 99% of those OPs are scams.
