Title: Is this an actual bitcointalk link or am I completely screwed now?? Post by: U2 on May 08, 2017, 07:40:54 PM Here's the link someone posted claiming it was another person's profile.
http://%22%20https//bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=865791 It looks sketchy so I'm asking if I should move my bitcoins. I should right? Title: Re: Is this an actual bitcointalk link or am I completely screwed now?? Post by: markj113 on May 08, 2017, 07:57:34 PM Looks dodgy to me.

Post by: minifrij on May 08, 2017, 08:09:51 PM It's just a mangled link, someone probably used the [url] bbcode wrong. If you follow link after this part - http://%22%20https// - then you will go to the trust page of wantt0sell (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=865791).

It seems it was just an error on their part. I moved my coins into cold storage anyway but whatever. Thanks guys! False alarm! I won't be clicking any random links anymore. I was on a phone so I can't hover. |
