Here's a new one:

"I Razick am the sole owner of the address 1vayZZw4U1pKQic2FjZ7aYg8e1qDSNxCC. Today's date is 6/9/2020."

I also managed to verify it using Brainwallet: Verified.
So this should be good for a start.
3723  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scammers using Profile of High rank members to join social campaign of UNIFINITY on: June 09, 2020, 02:13:57 PM
A lot of accounts should be investigated here, we can trace who owns those Facebook accounts or twitter accounts linked to a specific account here in Bitcointalk and tagged all these accounts, it's bounty manager's fault why this thing happens, he should know that there, a verification post is important so the entry can be validate now they have to fix their mistakes.
Everything used including the social media usernames and profiles are just random. It's only the Ether addresses that may be the only actual thing that belong to the person behind this... But problem is the addresses are also brand new so there is no way of linking through transactions to find out who actually the person behind this is.

To confirm if you have subscribed for the board or not and this is just a bug, Head over to your profile, then under Modify Profile click on Notifications and Email. You should be able to see the boards and topics you have subscribed for.
3725  Other / Meta / Re: FYI: Stolen Account on: June 09, 2020, 06:46:21 AM
If the posts from your account that made members who left you feedback believe that you were cheating on signature campaigns  were made in the period when your account was hacked. Then it would be unfair for such feedback to be left on your profile even after recovery of your profile. 

What makes things complicated is that you didn't warn members here back then as soon as your account was hacked so it's hard to determine when hacker took over the account.
Maybe you should point out here when the account changed hands along with visible signs like change of posting pattern and also sign a message from an earlier address so as to convince members who left you negative feedback to reverse or remove it.

USDT withdrawal problem slowly
You are trying to mean that withdrawal of USDT from cloudbet is slow,  right?

I think it's a general problem for even other cryptos on the platform as seen in the past by complaints from different members. Probably their withdraw approval or verification process is slow as compared to other online gambling and casino platforms. Hopefully Cloudbet works on the withdrawal spend soon.

This is like a case of someone following poor security procedures for their Social media account by getting their login credentials leaked and then when hackers gain access to his account, he goes on to blame the platform.

If Tab trader was hacked or indeed it's scam. Why would they go for just less than 1 BTC, yet they have thousands of traders using the app with a lot more money?
OP's API keys got probably compromised, and he still thinks it's tabtrader's fault. You can't blame someone else for your mistakes.

You can start off with basics like how to make orders, creating stop losses, Introduction to candle sticks, the dos and don't when trading etc. All this information is readily available on platforms like YouTube where different traders try to explain to newbies.
After you learn the basics, you can practice trading using some little money you can afford to lose before starting off on serious trading
3729  Economy / Exchanges / Re: [ANN] Bittrex - Next generation exchange (btc/ltc/eac/ppc/rdd/ftc/and more) on: June 08, 2020, 10:34:34 PM
I don't see many users getting the emails asking for the source of funds though so I guess my account is fine. I don't see any reason to panic if they ask for the source but I'd like to know if a lot of us received the email and goes on without worries after submitting documents. I checked my email which I find nothing is sent to me about it.

I have not logged to my account for a year but I have few tokens I kept like ADA but nothing much.
Don't wait until you receive the email asking for the source of your funds even thou you have no worries about submitting your personally documents. An exchange should never be used as a wallet. A lot of things happen to an exchange such as hacks or getting shutdown on short notice.

Word of advice. Always try as much as possible to avoid less popular platforms and instead use the popular alternatives. Less popular platforms are in most cases untested by so many members and therefore chances of getting scammed are high.

Fore example Bitnuks Android App was released 4 months ago on 16th Feb 2020 and a little above 10 downloads.
3731  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pablo Escobar and Bitcoin and Satoshi Nakamoto on: June 08, 2020, 09:23:06 PM
I don't know why this keeps popping, very old news, two years ago, Pablo Escobar's Brother Says He Met an FBI Agent Posing As Satoshi Nakamoto.

I'm not sure what happen to the project, but I guess they need to create another news so that people's interest will be piqued, but Nah, I don't think so. There is no connection whatsoever.
Now this even makes the claim look more stupid and a desperate attempt to grasp from attention. Something certainly is not right. Satoshi being a very mysterious figure who has never responded or defended himself against any claim despite months and months of different claims from different people. This makes him am easy target but the good news is that people barely believe this kind of crap these days.
3732  Economy / Reputation / Re: About Bestchange [again] on: June 08, 2020, 06:28:37 PM
Unfortunately, this situation is still causing us some unwarranted suspicion, and BestChange suffered some damage to their reputation as well. To help things clear up, we have addressed the case and its resolution in a topic on another forum dedicated to security in crypto.

On behalf of the entire ChangeHero team, we would like to thank BestChange for handling the outcry professionally and not giving in to unreasonable demands. We hope that our continuing partnership will help both our services to make a good name for ourselves.
I thought everything about the situation was resolved sometime back when I saw some members reverting the negative feedback they had left on bestchange. Since this thread was mostly about the reputation of Bestchange at that time, Maybe you guys can make a new thread concerning the current situation of your reputation and what you did to resolve the issue that led to your negative feedback.
3733  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ProExchangers Exchange Review and Aggregator platform on: June 07, 2020, 10:49:07 PM
We are thinking of deploying anti plagiarism tools to help penalize offending exchanges. and setting a minimum length of 200 words for reviews.
Not a bad idea but just in case the culprits decided to spin the text. Then that anti plagiarism tool may not work well. I don't know if it's practical but maybe you could also put in a mechanism to determine the weight of a review depending on the age of the account, number of other reviews among other factors
3734  Other / Off-topic / Re: 5 Privacy Browsers that are available for Android on: June 07, 2020, 10:14:19 PM
How the hell does Brave browser appear in number 1, It should be the last give the recent developments.
Tor on a mobile phone is quite tricky but it's far much better than most privacy based browsers.
so for me it's
1. Tor
2. Duckduckgo
-----
5. Brave

I have never used Firefox focus and Epic yet. I will check them out.
3735  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The MEMPOOL just cleared :D on: June 07, 2020, 09:53:24 PM
The largest required fee that would have guaranteed you will get your transactions confirmed the next block was 240sat/b during the last 3 months, which is 6$.
you can't detrmine how much fee he has to pay without knowing the transaction size. 6$ or ~0.0006BTC  is actually what he had to pay if it was a basic transaction (1 input, 2 outputs) which is obviously not the case here Smiley
even 6$ is too much and in some cases you can't just wait for the mempool to clear up.
And to make matters worse, @wwzsocki was using a third party payment service which means that those fellows can decide to hike the withdrawal fee to any amount the feel like just like Pooya87 stated.

This is why payment services that can allow you to modify or adjust the fee to your liking depending on the bitcoin network condition are good thou they are so rare to come by.
3736  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Brave browser hijacking links and affiliate codes! on: June 07, 2020, 09:33:17 PM
What a way to destroy your project for a few bucks...
Greed at its highest level  Embarrassed Things will never be the same for them. At least not from me. Imagine the whole team of brave project including the advisors sat down and thought hijacking links and adding their affiliate code was the best thing to do  Huh

If they can do such a silly thing for a few bucks. Imagine what else they can do to sell off user data for more bucks.

3737  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The MEMPOOL just cleared :D on: June 06, 2020, 09:53:37 PM
How did you manage this?...

It was a withdrawal from third party service and as stated above I forgot about the congested mempool and higher fees problem, additionally, this was exactly the case that:

the transaction... have been 40 kb in size. which means it was a perfectly reasonable fee to pay...

and the size was even bigger.

If I would check the mempool and wait for a less congested network the fees could be significantly lower.

https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/7ca3b8f997ababf16da9558f1b1d3d6ef581a6e53870e563717bf3f5a58e473d/
That fee was ridiculous bro  Shocked We are not even in the period of a huge bull run like it was in 2017.
Anyway looking at your transaction, I can see 6 inputs and 2 outputs resulting into a higher number of byte size which was around 1,844 bytes. This coupled with the high fee per byte which was 150 sats made they fee so high.

Being a third party payment service there was nothing you could do to avoid the fee, They only Option would have been to wait for weekends in order to withdraw at a low fee and that only works if their withdrawal fee is flexible.

I've barely used the account the past year, I think they try to disable inactive accounts to seize the assets.
The account was used more intensively before that and has been properly verified for at least 2 years.

The fact that they use personalised links is quite disturbing, I definitely won't be using Bittrex any longer.
I hope your funds weren't in there (in fact never ever leave your valuable assets in any exchange in case you are going to be off trading for a long time)
These crypto exchanges are like unstable weather, you never know what kind of requirements or regulations they can come up with tomorrow.

The personalised links could have been tailored for the territory you come from since different territories have slightly different regulations.
3739  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: New stupid/greedy move from Brave Browser on: June 06, 2020, 07:35:11 PM
As soon as they started their KYC bullshit, I stopped using the browser. Binance acquiring them was like the last nail on the coffin to the once promising privacy based browser for me. I uninstalled it sometime back and even forgot about it.

Nice discovery OP. I guess my instincts were somehow right.
3740  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [RED ALERT] marlboroza attempt to "conquer" bitcointalk with his friends. on: June 05, 2020, 09:25:10 PM
Btw, I don't like this "it's just code" attitude. It's like saying "it's just words, nobody got hurt", while code (as well as words) clearly do have the power of causing a lot of hurt, in whatever way.
Looking at the rest of his behavior. Someone with good intention would never behave the way OP has behaved,
- He's abusing the trust system by sending retaliatory feedback to anyone who doesn't agree with him, He's attacking a lender for denying him a loan among other things. In other words, he's being a scammer who's an asshole.
