Are there actually people here that do not know TradeFortress other infamous alt that scammed and was able to hide his RL identity in Similar fashion?

TF has been successfully "acquiring" revenue for four years I know of.

~BCX~

Are you referring to hashie.co?


No, the hashie.co scam wasn't run well enough to have been a TF operation.

I'm not joking.


~BCX~
There is actually a good amount of evidence that the hashie scam was something that TF was behind. I think it is possible that TF might not have personally ran hashie, however he was likely involved somewhat in the back end programming as well as the "bug" that caused it to get hacked

Cryptoforcause please list all your alt account here and call your all friends and ask him to do the same.
After refunding all BTC you can leave the forum I will not give you address and phone number to anyone.
I'm can't wait to know who is superstar777 and if he is not one of them then I'm ready to do another investigation with qory.

i still doubt cryptoforcause and his buddies will actually leave bitcointalk, if anything they will just learn from this and do it all over while covering their tracks better.
From what I can tell, the person behind puzzel.me has evolved over time in order to avoid detection. I have seen that some of his active accounts have started to use very good coin control to avoid their various accounts from being spend-linked together, he has gotten his story straight to try to give an explanation as to why his accounts are spend-linked together, and he has edited previous posts in order to cover up the previous addresses that he posted.

I would also not be surprised if he is using multiple computers/browsers/VPNs/VMs to prevent BadBear from being able to out his alts while looking at things like his browser fingerprints.

I think it may be appropriate to remove his dox if he repays everyone and apologizes for trying to extort people, however the negative ratings should very much remain.

0.33 Bitcoins sent. I will send remaining in few hours as I have met netbanking limit for the day and can't buy bitcoins. I just had 0.33 left

wheres the txid? with the sob stories youre posting in here I don't completely buy your excuses, what happened to the 1 BTC you just freshly scammed?
You can simply look at the blockchain and the above post with an address where funds need to be sent to see that funds were in fact sent. 79d6d494127373000d7fa59079aab39bb73f929b94123daf18f7f7171385d7f6

Yes, this site is defiantly a scam. It was recently added to Tomatocage's list of scam sites here
145  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Several users trying to cheat Coinomat signature campaign on: June 14, 2015, 03:32:18 PM
by the way, are you sure they deserve a -ve just for that?

Yes. They're cheating money out from a signature campaign which is dishonest.

by the way, are you sure they deserve a -ve just for that?

This is debatable. I would have thought a ban is more likely / justified than negative trust.
What forum rule are they breaking?

Spamming. Half of the posts are just crap in the giveaways threads and the others aren't up to much.

Giveaways claims are not spam. Or half of the forum should be banned, including the members that create giveaway threads. If they were spam per se, the forum would have already banned all kings of giveaways, like they did with altcoin giveaways. It is a choice of signature program's managers if they accept giveaways claims or not. Stunna used to accept giveaways claims in his PD signature campaign, for example.
(and less than 100 of my posts are in giveaways threads, any way).

And when you say that the others don't add too much might be because you are not interested about the subjects I mostly post. Right now I post more in gambling and about soccer, in the past in speculation, and I don't see you posting about such subjects.

And I purposed give back all the money I've earned with coinomat signature(or whatever amount they agree) and don't take part in any signature campaign for some weeks at least. I think a neutral feedback would be more suitable, that way everyone would know about what I did, including signature campaign managers. Even users that scammed for many BTC or defaulted big loans got their trust back to neutral when they repaired the damage they did.
(but of course my opinion is biased)
Well the only reason why you are returning the money is because you were caught. Are all of these accounts yours? Do you have any others?
146  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Several users trying to cheat Coinomat signature campaign on: June 14, 2015, 03:15:54 PM
Marcotheminer himself making more than one post where one post is sufficient.
I saw he got 3 loan request when he saw those three requests he quoted each request and Sorry denied,
Denied, sorry but denied.
Awesome guy made a signature bot to scam bit-x.

That isn't relevant to this thread. Report the posts if you feel they're breaking the rules. Double/triple posts would normally be removed if they should/could be made in just one.
I think his point is that his bot makes it too easy to scam the site that is buying member's signature space.

I think this is a good example as to why counting posts should not be automated

It looks like that his twitter handle is most likely tapansharma2 (archive).

One of his tweets (archive), says:

If you do a search for 1BtBqWDJ28o1pWYiqtX1oUcBKpU1d86XSC you will find several posts by cryptoforcause including this one (archive - reply 344) when cryptoforcause is asking for a loan to be funded to the above address.

The name associated with the above twitter handle is Tapan Sharma


So it means he belongs to India but from where in India
I can help you to find him but India is a big country with 29 states and 7 union territories will be a very very difficult task for anyone.
How did you get the fact that he is in India from that post? I have heard several times that Tapan Sharma is this person's name, however it was only very recently that actual proof was brought to my attention

The site was sold a few months ago. I am not sure why the buyer paid so much for it and never actually did anything with the site
-snip-
And if it is the same yussuf89 (same person behind the account )who bought it, he opened up another dice site before and it seems like it was not succesfull

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1052006.0
It seems that the person who had purchased the yussuf89 account eventually returned it to it's original owner (see here). The whole scenario truly is one that has a huge amount of twists and turns. (the tl;dr version is that someone hacked yussuf89, marcotheminer accepted the hacked/stolen account as collateral for a loan, refused to give it back to the rightful owner, eventually sold the account, then the person who purchased the account eventually returned the account to the rightful owner)

So at the end all fears of him building trust were unfounded. Refreshing to see persons that are different than all the scammer and haters on this board.

Now i really would like to know the story behind. Why does he feel to spend his life making others happy?
He told me that he has done similar things on other forums and eventually moves on. It is really too bad that he didn't stay around to at least interact with the community for some time.

I do not at all blame him for this, however since he left I have noticed an increase in the number of people who are laundering money through various (stolen) gift cards - Starbucks (selling at deep discounts), amazon (selling at ~25% off the face value in large amounts), among others. It is really unfortunate IMO that people are so willing to buy gift cards that are so clearly purchased with stolen credit cards and/or were otherwise illegitimately obtained.

I believe the fact that bitcoin is used by so many people with nefarious intentions have caused this to happen.

I think that few people truly realize that people like BPB are more the exception to the rule.

What's happened? When this site will start again? Site is down and there isn't any news from the owner. Miss so much BikiniDice Sad
The site was sold a few months ago. I am not sure why the buyer paid so much for it and never actually did anything with the site

Maybe buyed it because he wanted to remove a competitor from the dice sites business.
Just a guess, however.
I would doubt it. There is still a lot of competition in the bitcoin dice arena and Bikinidice was really never anything more then a niche site

153  Other / Meta / Re: Satoshi's IP address(es)? on: June 05, 2015, 06:50:31 AM
I would also be somewhat surprised if information about satoshi's IP addresses was leaked as part of the recent hack
Oh, yes, Michael Marquardt's email from 2015-5-24 did say
Quote
The following information about your account was likely leaked:
 - Email address
 - Password hash
 - Last-used IP address and registration IP address
 - Secret question and a basic (not brute-force-resistant) hash of your
 secret answer
 - Various settings
So, it could be leaked to the public. The forum admin(s) could also release it…
I doubt that satoshi's IP addresses were stored in the member tables. His account is disabled/locked, and I would presume that information regarding his account is stored separately from the rest of the accounts.

I know it used to be that if you searched for members with the term 'satoshi' his profile would not show up, although that appears to have since changed for some reason.
154  Other / Meta / Re: Satoshi's IP address(es)? on: June 05, 2015, 05:16:38 AM
If I had to guess I would say they were most likely that of tor exit nodes. Either that or those of VPN gateways.

I highly doubt that any additional information will come of them.

caskey(or whoever is with his account) still can give it to a trusted escrow for an auction, and whatever is left after the loan's payment will be given back to him
This could work, although it would probably sell for somewhat of a fire-sale price. Plus you would need to pay the escrow to not only handle escrow but also to sell the account which would likely take up a good amount of the proceeds.
There are quite a good number of free escrows available now in the forum so there might be one who agrees to hold the auction for free. The last choice stays with Caskey. The account shall sell for min. 0.18 so taking all fees and any extra charges Casket can easily make ~0.1 BTC
People might be willing to escrow a simple transaction for free, however I doubt that many people will be willing to actually sell something on behalf of a seller for free
Yeah you are right here that many people won't sell something for free, hence escrow can take a small fee, maybe 0.0075-0.01 that's what Quickseller takes, or maybe even more.
I think that is what it would cost only for escrow, if you wanted an escrow to put the work into finding a buyer then the fee would be more then that

So are you okay with trusting a large amount of money on a site where a random person was able to execute arbitrary JS on their customers' computers?
158  Economy / Gambling / Re: DaDice.com - Next Generation Social Gambling Dice Experience on: June 05, 2015, 12:28:50 AM

What a joke this site is. Every week something surfaces that makes it even more sketchy than before.

As long as they keep on paying their sig participants, all is good.  Cool

seriously man.. you don't need to make them look shady coz the neg rep is enough to warn people here.. you're just wasting energy
As long as they keep funding the escrow address for their signature campaign their shills (and people who are willing to whore out their signature for a scam site) will be able to continue advertising for them.


I cannot imagine why anyone would think it would be no big deal that an attacker can run arbitrary JS on their customers' computers.

I think it is pretty funny that a total of .008 BTC was stolen from their hot wallet though  Cheesy

Everyone in this thread needs to make sure you know that ACCTseller is the trolling alt of Quickseller.  He uses it to troll when he doesn't want to draw attention to his main account.  He used to try to keep it a secret, but it's been publically admitted (even by him).  Just for everyone's informatino.

Guess what guys, a hot-wallet is a hot-wallet.  It gets used for withdrawals.  Are you really going to take the word of a guy who's been in this thread trolling non-stop for days that a hot wallet was "hacked" just because he publishes a bitcoin address and shows a chart. It's not like he's an impartial observer, he's been spreading FUD for days now and for all we know he's getting paid by folks like Quickseller to do so.

Non-insanse people here are going to wait a while to see what the devs say about this.  Geez the drama on this forum has really become over-the-top.
There have been multiple reports from people getting random HS popups. This has even been confirmed by DaDice that someone had hacked their chat.

Can you say with a straight face that you would have no problem trusting a site with large amounts of money to gamble with when a random person is able to execute arbitrary JS on your computer via their site?

I don't think the OP quite understands how the trust system works.

I wouldn't put it past the OP to withhold funds if he was sent funds first in a trade. However I don't think KoS is dumb enough to send first to the OP.

The correct reaction to receiving frivolous negative trust is obviously not to send negative trust in return.
