Title: Shady offer. Selling database Post by: The Cryptovator on October 09, 2018, 09:12:51 PM Selling email list. Most likely he has hacked from any others database. Or he has run scam ICO. Even he has own database I don't believe he has took permission from owners. Obviously this is a shady offer.
Profile: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2049768 I will sell the base of potential investors in ICO! The database includes a list of ~38 thousand potential investors namely: 1. E-mail address 2. Twitter account 3. FaceBook account (some accounts are missing) 4. ETH address The base is assembled by hand and tested. Example below. https://i.imgur.com/50SXcfJ.jpg?1 Price $ 200 (accept in cryptocurrency ETH or BTC) For questions here or in telegram - @andreytopex (https://t.me/andreytopex) Archived : http://archive.is/xrvll Title: Re: Shady offer. Selling database Post by: BitcoinSupremo on October 10, 2018, 07:36:09 PM Selling any type of personal identification manager data (what is called PIM in United States) is strictly forbidden and is punishable by the law. And as far as I know the email is considered to be part of the PIM.

All the data offered is the kind of info people would usually submit in the bounty campaign threads. I can't think of any other place people would submit their social media names along with ETH addresses. Email addresses are bit unusual, but I've seen a few bounty threads asking for such, and they had hundreds of replies. And he could also just copy/paste details from campaigns' spreadsheets. 38k users seems a lot, but I won't be surprised if the number of "bounty hunters" was way higher than that. If I'm right, such data is not worth too much, as it consists mostly of 3rd worlders looking to earn a buck, not to spend it. So hardly 'potential ICO investors'. And as far as I know the email is considered to be part of the PIM. Correct. It doesn't change even if such information was voluntarily submitted on public forum. Title: Re: Shady offer. Selling database Post by: LeGaulois on October 12, 2018, 02:14:47 AM A useless list since email marketing is dead, people use several emails at once, and don't read the emails not enough important. It's like to send a bottle in the sea. Low life people won't go away, they will try to sell everything they find for free on the web

Either way, I don't think it's actually illegal since the data must come from a browser source such as cookies. Most of the cookie policies allow the data to be stored and distributed within legit sources for 'private' purposes which are usually selling as b2b. |
