but I think you should also create a new scam accusations topic (with name of website as title) if not already done by you or another user.

Actually they are using same template and all details same, that's why I have not bothered to create new thread. A single team doing that scam activity. However, I have changed the title of this reply, so that it would reflect on search. If someone use search button they will see that thread as well as you also post the website link.

i also made a thread;  but put it in the mixed bag forum;  didnt see this subforum....  tis why i linked my post.

but even the company timeline is 100% identical;  the background image i found; was icing on the cake.   On top of the fact that its a roulette site, but they call it an exchange, etc.

They tried talking to me in the fake chat/support like i was an idiot, yet couldn't answer simple logical questions to their illogical statements.... i knew before it even happened that it was a scam, i just tried to see how deep the hole went.

It seems their website actually pulls live chat from yobit and possibly other exchanges.

If you go in, set up a fake account, and continually spam the chat;  someone has to receive those and read them (the scammer) because its in there interest to coax people to make a deposit when its 100% apparent its not a legitimate request on their end... it will eat up their time.  I dont think they built in the ability to ban people.....  he kept messaging me to "shut the fuck up".

They say you need to make a deposit to prove you are not "abusing the referral code for a free 0.0022BTC"; but how does my deposit prove I am a unique individual??? LOL! Idiots....

scan the same version from the github compiled by fireice-uk..... you see the same detections.

This is because people use these miners in their background processes of their spyware to mine for them....



Might wanna research before you speak.

I did that before and just did it again and with the fireice-ukversion ZERO virus! so who's laughing now friend!

https://www.virustotal.com/#/url/d57a2f9a914f30e2ad70c49d1d17cf18ad9bf9de04058c8f8152f4b382bb0c97/detection

I always double check every download i do these days.



your original link is erroneous.


since you have trouble with the basics:

download the same version I compiled from fireice-UK's github like I just did right now. (noting the github specifically mentions it shows up in virus detections where the download is...)  Do not direct-link the .zip file on github as the web-file scanner won't download the file and scan the hashes from the files inside the zip like it does when you submit it from your own pc.  If you were to upload my file to github and scan it the same as you did his;  you would get no detections because its only hashing the main zip itself; not its contents.


So now:
upload that file to virustotal from your pc like you did with mine originally.  (notice it will scan the hashes inside the zip [unlike the web linked scanner that only checked the zip itself])

see [like i just did] that the results are a near mirror of each other; but there are differences because I modified the original code before I compiled it; as the notes are clear about on page 1.

Here is a valid link, not a screenshot:

*edit* No response to your faulty claim being disproven, so ill delete your messages and leave this one as a reference.

Staking my interest in the thread.

Presently holding and/or staking some:
BTC, ETC, LTC, BAT, XLM, XMR, and BUB.


Still mining XMR with a single 1070 now.  took all my pre 10-series cards offline, and all my 9-series are long since sold off.

The market has been interesting;  and BTC's reactions to the stock market have been quite unpredictable....   These should be interesting times as the bull market seems quite prevalent and isnt showing signs of pulling back... not yet anyways.

Most of the bitcoin fork coins are like BCI. You can't get too greedy and need to sell while the price is attractive and get out.

Bitcoin Cash was the only Bitcoin fork which would of paid you well if you've held it. It opened at $300 and it peaked at $3000 once. The other forked coins like Bitcoin Gold, etc all basically peaked at the time of the fork and have been going down ever since.

Same with the Bitcoin Cash SV coin. Was hoping to get 0.02 BTC for it but it got delisted almost everywhere and its worth less than 1% of a BTC right now. So once again the best time to sell BSV was around the time of the fork.

I think people realized after bch that forks are nothing but a dead end TBH....

It looks like this is all related to cryptual;   chck this out:

look at the background image;  they forgot to edit it.


Cryptual was a failed scam ICO.....

Yep;  ran into the same person;  gave negative trust for his lies in his post about being able to withdraw instantly, etc, and also flagged his posts.

I took screenshots of when I made an account to see what this "free .0022"BTC" was about.     Ironically I win a large sum, but they want a large sum deposited first;  to prove i havent used the promo before.



But using logic;

If I made fake accounts non-stop;  and when I got a winner;  deposited the "less than my winnings" amount, and presto;  no loss and abusing the promo.      


Their reasoning is 100% flawed.


Nobody in real life would EVER ask for a payment from you to them before they would pay you what they owe you (typically more than they are asking for).

See my post;  I have screenshots.  They owe me over $1100, but are asking for a serious amount to withdraw.  The reasoning is to "make sure people don't abuse the promo code".

Do not use any credentials to sign up that you think can be used against you....  I used a one time use fake password to test this site.


They give you a promo code to redeem for just enough to make one roulette gamble.   (0.0022 BTC)  They say you can withdraw it right away if you want to.

The website tells you otherwise that you need to make one gamble to withdraw. (ironically, 0.002 BTC minimum, and there's a 10% fee)

You make that gamble and win a large sum of $.

You try to withdraw and get hit with an alert telling you that it is necessary to send a deposit in order to do a withdraw.


Here's some screenshots.

FYI: as soon as I commented about it then started collecting screenshots to post in his thread;  it was deleted.    Oah the irony.

So if you take a 6 month break, you get perma banned? why else would I have been perma banned?

Anyway, new account here.
Interesting market movements. Happy to see some hype back in the scene Smiley

Your account probably got compromised and did some nefarious stuff on here.

Yeah, I suggest PM an admin to see whats the story.


Phil, we reached 100 pages of bear market posting. Time for a new thread. Give it a good name, like "9th altcoin thread - We're back beotches!"

TBH im surprised this one thread lasted as long as it did... usually it was a few months to half a year xD


Its nice to see the BTC trends.   Early this morning the indicators showed possibly a pullback/selloff, but im glad to see after I woke that BTC pushed up into the 8200-8300 range.


Also nice seeing a nearly $100 XMR price.   Glad I left my rig of old GPU's chewing away at it non-stop.
389  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 8th Alt coin thread. Or what to do now that asics are all over the place. on: May 12, 2019, 12:01:30 AM
Its pretty crazy how bitcoin is going bonkers but the alts are either trading sideways or going down. So if you are a GPU miner, profitability hasn't really improved since the last few months.

Really would like to see ETH above $200 and maybe it might be worth powering up my rigs again. I am sure the people with the SHA256 sure are happy this month, since Bitcoin is the only coin accelerating in the last couple of weeks.



This is probably because a lot of people are selling alts to put into bitcoin as it rises.  Combine that with the massive amount of altcoins that are either complete shitcoins or really do not have much of a future.  Unfortunately the most profitable coins to mine are the ones that have the least potential. I regret not selling every single alt I had when the prices started to crash.  In the long term I don't forsee any alts that will outperform Bitcoin or Eth in terms of % gains

agreed for the most part...

But;  coins like XMR, Dash, LTC all have a purpose as an intermediary;  like 'coins' to BTC's 'paper cash'.

Even in the whitepaper it was known that BTC had a long way to go to be able to support large transactions and volume;  so having side networks for smaller quicker payments are actually a good thing.  Scaling up the blockchain data could be disastrous in certain respects.    Newer alts, are pretty much going to be a dying breed;  in the future I hope they become less of a coin/store in value, and more of a function or program.  ETH doesn't count;  it's got the same level of respect and trust that I have in Java or Adobe Flash.

There are few alts I hold, but all of my alts are ~25% of my crypto portfolio.   99.999% of my crap alts I have gambled on;  I have definitely profited, so ill only sell them if its worth the effort, or a few of them get re-enabled on exchanges. (exchange wallets offline)

You can probably use teamviewer for over 100 rigs as long as your location is a local one and not remote.

Basically I've read the disclaimer saying you can't use it for business purposes and if you use it for too many (they don't state how many) different computers they will lock you out. However I never had any issues. I like the program and was basically going to pay if they ever required payment since its convenience and the cost isnt too much. However most of my rigs were local network.

I think what they are talking about is if you have rigs in multiple locations and you tried to access them from 1 location. Because they realize that if you are already physically there with your rigs, you can always just locally connect a monitor and keyboard and do your work.

If its a remote location where you would have to drive too then they limit those because they know that people would obviously pay for the program rather than have to drive back and forth whenever they want to check on their rigs.

Yeah, all the machines i have teamviewer on.   most of them are on the same network;  some are on nested subnets....   but generally speaking when I use TV;  I initiate a VPN to my main network, and initiate a direct-connect....     Only when I just need access to one little bit that's not sensitive, will I TV into lets say my game PC, cellular network router, or a media storage pc to do whatever task or fetch whichever file/detail.

once in a blue moon, ill connect to help a friend;  but if i do it more than once, i add their machine ID to my list;  which takes it off the radar a bit I would think.

Also it helps that my main network my VPN is attached to, is hosted from a private IP;  not a hosting company.
391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How to start a hidden miner? on: May 10, 2019, 09:59:15 AM
One hint on how fast detection happens on a miner in a business that is properly secured is an alert happens within 5 seconds of the miner being attempted to execute and the miner is not able to execute, so you lose your job over zero profit.  Considering the cost of the job loss the math turns to a loss for attempting this at work.

 
you clearly overlooked the fact that a vpn is a typical solution to staying anonymous....  [and i'm not here to nitpick on hypotheticals]

I know this works even today, because I installed several miners at [insert silicon valley corporate company's name here] on a rack designated for his department.... and they have strict rules as well.
392  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Chinese mining motherboards suck! on: May 10, 2019, 09:52:51 AM
A word or caution, even the Lexus of these turds are terrible. There is always an issue, they're finicky as hell, the bios are old and outdated. Stay away from the pieces of shit, just buy a reputable motherboard maker, a cheap cpu and a server case if that was your plan. Use good risers and forget all about that terrible Chinese shit.

Sincerely a mad motherfucker who's had enough of this bullshit and is buying a new server case and listing the Chinese shit tonight.

I haven't had a single issue with my Onda B250-D8P V1.0;   and manu others have had similar results with Onda boards....  My board takes a normal 1151 cpu, and one sodimm of ram...

...it is still chewing away xmr like a champ.


The all in one, or "backplane type" cheap chinese units are hit and miss;  typically for the lack of good 12V rails feeding the PCIE ports or poor build quality/lack of Q&A.  I would say that in my endeavors;  I have had just as much problem with them, as i've had with riser setups as well.... the onda has been lightyears above the rest.

You know your tools are getting old when
1. Your Ryzen 5 2600 shows up in HWiNFO with a 108 Degrees core temp..  like wtf
2. Your Vega 64 reference shows up in GPU-Z with 8 Gig of Micro memory.  like wtf.  I know it has Samsung..
3. ATI pixel clock patcher complains that the driver file is too large.
Luckily all above items were resolved by upgrading the corresponding tool...
Time to overhaul the software repo..
Goes to show you the amount of innovation going on in this field called mining..

Perhaps I should mention that I needed to upgrade OverDrivenTool to 0.2.8. beta1 after I upgraded my AMD driver to 19.4.1 and lost fan control on my RX 570s...
Then I had to upgrade my Teamviewer to 14 something after it complained that the machine I tried to connect to had 14 something....

BTW does anyone know of a replacement for TeamViewer?  I am getting tired of its ways..  I can only stay connected a few minutes at a time now it suspects business use...

I still have a license for RemoteAdministrator 2.1; and its my fallback for when I need to double wrap a session, or don't have the ability to install TeamViewer;   it's basically windows RDP before windows had RDP.

If you know how to properly filter/restrict your traffic;  just use windows RDP;  just be absolutely sure you know how to configure the machine to only respond to you.   There are many ways to do this....


would you mind sharing a few ways.  I could always use a few tips.


for linux you can use xterm, or for windows you can use the built in RDP or a 3rd party such as my commented remote administrator;   there are countless how-to's on remote desktop protocol stuff out there....  TV is just nice because they have a 3rd party reporting/relay server.

I'm actually on the fence about selling my B250-D8P V1 board with everything in its spotswood frame....   Put the $ into other ventures or just buy and hold BTC or another coin...  Im guessing the combination with no GPU's is worth ~550ish with its 1200w psu and being ready to use....   I do have enough computers lying around to get a substantial amount of GPU's running if need be...

choices....    oh a fluctuating market breeds choices....

After clicking the signature it redirects me to yobit[.]io which is not yobit[.]net.
That doesn't make sense: when I check alyssa85's signature, it links to .net. This is the HTML source:
Code:
<a class="ul" href="https://yobit.net">
There is no ~bit.io on the entire page.
could it be the older style signature of yobit?
perhaps theymos removed all yobit signature based on current signature style and missed a few older ones
if he had checked url links on sig space, I think this wouldn't have happened 

in their sig campaign thread;  you have to go through the pages to find all of the originals... they never kept them in just one place.

I haven't been in their program and I have no clue if they have paid other red tagged members.

Hold on for a minute how did anyone find out if red tagged members were paid in the first place? All the payments are sent in the yobit balance and its not shown publicly anywhere about which users are enrolled and when they're paid.

So who spread this information about red tagged accounts getting paid? Might it be that that person himself is a multiaccount farmer (possibly with a red tagged account)?
There was few red trusted users users like mdayonliner who said that they got paid from Yobit campaign. There is no way how we can verify it, but I think there is no point them to lie and wear Yobit signature for free.
But probably it was not intentional mistake by Yobit, they just didn't adjusted their bot to reject red trusted users. Same like they didn't adjusted their payment rates. They planned to pay 0.00016 BTC per post, but in first day after relaunch of campaign all participants got 0.0003 BTC per post.


Ill admit;  I was with yobit's sig campaign for a LONG time;  and that's just because it paid the most (years ago when I signed up) and continued to pay right up to the end (for me).   I never relied on these funds; and TBH; never once did I post just to get paid....   It was a nice bonus to get a kickback for doing the shit i'd be doing anyways.

I never shitposted; and rarely left one-line responses unless busy, fed up with the person im responding to, or just flat out the answer was 1-3 words.     Yobit's sig campaign didn't increase my post count;  my post count followed the speed of the market, and changes with the mining software as I was always updating scripts, batches, or just helping out others.  Just like how its been slow in crypto for the last ~year.  My post history reflects it because of my type of activities.

I was never banned;  or anything similar; but I would have appreciated knowledge of this discussion before finding out the ass-wrong-way.... maybe notify legendary members of something like this in the future.  Coming in and thinking my 2FA has been hacked because my signatures are changed.... Not fun.


I have heard a LOT about people saying they weren't paid from yobit for this or that.    Most people either walked me into a scenario where they were scammed, or they deposited to the wrong wallet;  expecting a person on the blind "other end" to undo their fuck-up(s).  The delayed campaign payouts were a thing;  but  they always eventually worked;  im pretty sure a yobit owner has an alert that they acknowledge to be able to pay you out...   and Ive only seen payouts processed when I saw active moderators in chat that weren't dominickerzog or whatever his actual username is...

When blockchain fees were at their highest for BTC;  I actually caught them in some pretty shady activity.  They were taking an extra 1.5mBTC (over $20 back then) per withdraw; to "speed up the transactions" via their twitter post.  When the backlog of TX's died, and the extra TX for speed-of-processing fees was not necessary anymore;  they were still charging that fee for over 3 months.   I messaged them about it;  wherein their response was unambiguously that they were transparent in the reasoning for the fee... which they were still charging.   But what I pointed out and what got ignored from then-on:  was the fact that  the TX they sent me to my wallet;  had a fee that 1/2 the original TX fee withheld, not including the "extra speed fee" that was taken from me to "speed up the transaction".     The next day;  their withdraw fee went back to ~1mbit.

Not to mention the fact that, I am pretty sure they are purposefully running certain coins on bad chains;  like VSync;  (XVS/VSX)  they have been purposefully continuing a forked chain for about 2 years+ now.

If their staking wallet forks off a bad chain;  they leave it;  this way they have all of the infrastructure to continue selling it on their platform; and continually liquidating $ out of people.

Yobit's fake volume was easy to spot:  recoccouring buys/sells at the same value that made no sense given the state of the coin's market, buys/sells that were smaller than the minimum you could do from the webpage,  and buys/sell orders that popped up together and went away together....

Lots of fake volumes, but almost always on their own shitcoins they continually ICO'd and dumped.
