I know you've heard it before from other people trolling for attention when they don't really have anything. But I'm NOt TROLLING.
There will be something big on April 15th, I'm sure most people get the significance of that date.
Until then...

just done something really stupid  Got an email from support@localbitcoin.com saying my account had been flagged for fraudulent activity. checked my account and nothing, opened up electru grabbed an address and then send my funds to the wallet. incoming transaction. check the support desk no ticket. check back at email and obviously the link contains a hidden phishing address, phew close call but all is safe. Go to electrum to send my funds back over to LBTC, need them to have online adverts active, upon entering the password all i get is invalid. Turns out i sent them to a wallet that was generated on the 6th of December on my run around laptop and i don't appear to know the password at the moment  tried several combinations but nope..... must have been feeling smart that day and NO i did not right down the seed as i was actually generating the wallet whilst giving my friend a step by step run down on how to setup electrum, why i didn't follow my own instructions of remembering password and keeping a copy of the seed safe i will probably never live down  who's the local brute force expert? Thank you very much to those who pointed me in the right direction! big thanks to the devs of btcrecover, great little tool! |

Out of curiosity, did you remember the password after seeing what it actually was?
TT
I did not remember making it that combination no, the characters used were of course familiar. |

thanks! It appears to be working away and it found the password in seconds!!!
You see you don't need Teamviewer right away  These software often don't have GUI support and hence you cannot really run them with doubleclisk as they will simply show a command prompt for a second and then quit. This is due to the lack of a GUI. Similar software have to be run by firstly opening a command prompt and and then calling the software from within. Anyway, happy coin recovery! Glad it found the password so fast! I had a very definative list of words and numbers, just a complete random combination, especially for the situation in which it was created. I normally have a default simple password i use for the none important situations it was completely different though. Againt hanks for the help and yes mostly user error on my part! |

where am i going wrong?
Did you run it as, btcrecovery.py --wallet wallet.dat --passwordlist passwordlist.txt or how did you try to run it? just by double clicking the btcrecover.py with the btcrecover-tokens-auto.txt placed in the same directory. running it via a command prompt with extra commands is getting me nowhere. payment is offered to anyone who can give me a team viewer tutorial using the test wallets as i am clueless  yes i am better with visual instruction.... |

0.1btc is the other mans 100btc, but for me i can handle the prolonged security of a small portion of the hodlings, i have the .dat file. still it frustrated me to know i might be the cause of some "lost" bitcoins. The fact on the 6th of December i typed a password in twice and cannot remember it annoys me. I even looked back in a chat log and it was the 6th of December i gave me friend a teamviewer tutorial, so i do know that is when i generated the wallet, i just don't know what i set as the stupid flyby tutorial password. what a stupid thing to do..... |

I got a similar mail a few weeks ago. Did you have any dealings with cloud mining scams? If so I guess that would be the source of the phishing. They, the scammers apparently had a guess AS to whether I had a Coinbase account or not. I also got a phishing mail from a fake Blockchain site, I reported the mail to https://blockchain.zendesk.com/They confirmed my suspicions. Hi,
A recent review of our accounting system has shown that we may have had a security breach which contained one of our hot wallets. we are currently unsure how many users this has affected and ask that everyone checks to ensure they still have access to their funds.
Coinbase Login
If you do not have access to your funds please contact support immediately so that we can check our logs and ensure you have the correct amount of funds.
Please rest assured that we have funds in cold storage to cover any loss.
Respectfully,
Coinbase
Compliance Team
Actually, it was a fresh email addy generated today dedicated for lbtc and attached to my lbtc advert after 2 years of having a none independent account and then I got my first phishing link |
