The community of rather radical anarchists is diluted by liberals and environmentalists. All together occupy 38,5%.

Well I guess I partially dilute that as a liberal anarchist Smiley

Fit fairly well into that except for age lol well below that for now

That really sucks now I understand why people would fall for the trap
Another reason why I remain suspicious of googles sponsored ads they can sometimes lead to viral places

Holy Mary Mother of Jesus, do yourself a favour and just do not ever click ads, no, no, no, no.

The google ad that literally could cost people thousands quite the scary thing to be honest

I just had my blockchain.info wallet hacked, and my coins stolen.

Blockchain does not know how it happened and is investigating.


It's a phishing hack someone made a fake blockchain site

Adding the twitter thread since I am fairly certain that was the cause

I don't like or think much about Justin Bieber, but his father....  Cheesy

His dad is only ~37 years old and parties with Justin "all night"; They even go to strip clubs together (weird?)
Would you want a Dad who parties with you at 3AM, or would you rather have a "solid example of maturity?"

I must admit that was a strange question and why I came to post, but thinking about it there could be benefits to this but honestly I might find it awkward still not completely unconventional he needs a fatherly influence to guide him even when he is partying haha

I just had my blockchain.info wallet hacked, and my coins stolen.

Blockchain does not know how it happened and is investigating.

Here's what is known so far:

1) My identifier, pneumonic and password were all stored offline and separately.
2) My password was alphanumeric
3) They were never shared with anyone - EVER
4) I did not have my wallet setup so backups were sent to me by email
5) The wallet did not have an email address associated with it
6) Somehow, a hacker was able to gain access to my wallet and move my coins out - twice over 3 days (i did not realize what was happening and moved more coins into the wallet, which were moved out during a 2nd incursion)

I can see where the coins were sent to.

I know my tracing options are limited but I would like to try anyway.

How much can I learn from the address the coins were sent to?
Can I learn which company owns the wallet they were sent to? Blockchain? Bitstamp? Bitfog?

Did a little more investigating today, and found out that I was Phished! That's what I get for spending my Bitcoin after a couple cocktails!!! Today when I Googled Blockchain, I just clicked on the top link, and noticed right away that it wasn't right because the logo had changed, and also the address bar was showing the IP address instead of the https//url. I knew instantly what had happened!! Here's a thread talking about the site:

Thanks for the warning its good to know to be careful to not go to the wrong site
I wish they bought the IP and related addresses so that it wouldn't happen though.

Interesting idea and a neat place for my first post, if this goes through I wonder which forum member here will lose the most weight in this challenge.
Time to get rid if your beer belly while lurking the forum to tell the world about your triumphant exploits
