401  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: SCAM WARNING!! FROM User BitcoinDoubleSpender on: January 05, 2013, 07:08:11 PM
I just got the exact same message from Robert Fienstien. I had seen him in the newbie forum within the past couple hours posting basic "hello" messages.

For those of you that are aware of the digital currency Bitcoin: There has been a discovery of a exploit that utilizes the worlds first Quantum computer. This exploit is not illegal as no Governent controls the bitcoin network, nor backs it. The Bitcoin network runs a series of algorythms at extremely fast speeds, in comparison to classical computers, which the network runs on. This happens for BOTH receiver and sender to certain bitcoin rcv address programmed into the algorythm.

In other words while the payment is in idle circulation it can be spent twice, (this is the time it takes for the Bitcoin network to catch up, quantum computing can run at full speed for only so long.)

Do NOT try to spend more then twice with same addresses, I will not process orders and I will send the Bitcoins back because Bitcoin Network will catch on.


This is working as of January 04 2013 its no telling when this exploit may be fixed.
I take 50% of profits off double payments, so really your receiving 150% of your payment. for example 10 bitcoins = you get 15 back.
I paid over 117,000$ for the D-Wave F600 don't complain about my fee's. I am looking for many users in a short period to make most profit before exploit is found. If you like the service please tell as many people as you can.

HOW TO USE:
You need to make two addresses. You can go to the website http://blockchain.info/ and make multiple addresses. After you have made two addresses send email with the address to BitcoinDoubleSpender@yahoo.com and send the bitcoins to --> 1KU3LK7eTYJkc2Er5t91krGUGKmgK1QXud<--
The algorithm will only work with WHOLE numbers at this point . So the minimum amount you can double is: 1 bitcoin (not .1 or .01) You can send 1 or 10 or 32 but NOT 1.23 or 10.50!! So ONLY whole amounts -- no cents.
You can use as many times as you wish for any whole amount. I have experienced one issue with a client using a wallet version 0.51, so make sure your wallet is updated. This will not be a problem if Blockchain.info is used.
Payment will on average be doubled within 5-20 minutes, and will never take longer then 1 hour after order. Understand that each order has to be processed manually do NOT complain if it takes longer then 20 minutes. Each time you double spend you must use two new addresses, a new sender and receiver address. This is so Bitcoin network does not catch on. Also, I predict once this exploit is found and used by others with access to quantum computing the price will plumit to an all time low. Bitcoin as a monetary system is doomed to fail. SELL YOUR BITCOINS AS SOON AS YOU CAN.

Hello all, my name is Noah! I was wondering if anyone wanted to loan me a bitcoin or 2 so i can start seeing how this bitcoin thing really works... I would pay you back what you loan me +50%... I just havent had the time to stop by CVS and process my bitinstant stub... Any loan under 2 btc would be returned +50% because thats all I can afford.

I doubt anyone will loan you money just to "see how this BitCoin thing" works. That goes double for the fact that you're already about to process your BitInstant stub anyways.

If anyone were going to loan you 1 or 2 BTC, expect them to have some strict requirements. I wouldn't be surprised if someone required you to send an ID scan and proof of address for this kind of loan.

For just learning how BTC works, I agree with the suggestion to use websites like dailybitcoins and bitvisitor to get some small amounts to work with.

There's a reason the "Trust No One" topic is a sticky here: people are very protective of their money, and they're unlikely to lend it to someone who just wants to look at it.

EDIT: This topic does a great job of covering loans: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=97214.0

Welcome to the board. You might want to clean up your website a little bit. Some things look a little off-placement (maybe it's just my computer) and I noticed a handful of spelling errors throughout the pages.

I haven't noticed any. is there an exact page you have errors on?

Thanks in advance

First example I saw was "penitration" (penetration) on several of the pages. The commitment part at the bottom of the "About Us" page has a couple of punctuation errors, and the first sentence "As is could not be stated enough." seems off to me (there may not be an error there, but I feel like it should be worded differently).

If you look at the https://multibit.org/releases.html you can see there is a test version of MultiBit with them in already.
(it's the 0.5.7beta version)

There is some more work in finishing them off before it goes on release to everybody.
You can download it from https://multibit.org/releases/multibit-0.5.7beta to try it out.

Giving it a download now. Thanks!

BitCoin-QT was a little intimidating for me when I first started using BitCoin (though I knew very little about the currency at the time). MultiBit made the learning process much smoother for me, especially since I didn't have to wait 24 hours for it to sync, lol. I would personally recommend MultiBit for new users, but I do want to see BitCoin-QT gain more user-friendly features (and for MultiBit to gain encryption as a feature).

You didn't pay the contract. Matthew did. And you're refusing to transfer your end of the contract.

So TECSHARE has no legal obligation to provide the work to you, since you didn't pay for it.
And TECSHARE has no legal obligation to provide the work to Matthew, since he was paying on a contract he had no right to pay on (since you won't transfer your rights, as you claim).

There is no requirement to transfer all your rights and obligations together,

Then stop trying to claim that -- it's a very weak defense as I've already satisfied your request for proof. It makes you appear biased.


Why should the money be refunded to you?

I don't care. I outlaid three acceptable responses. One of them is returning the money to Matthew, as you seem to suggest. Fine, whatever.

Matthew and Tecshare possibly worked out some sort of deal together outside of your involvement, which gives you no right to demand anything from either of them.

Don't waste my time with "probably". Wanna hear something? Several people have told me there is an organized campaign to defame me. That is a fact. Based on that, you probably were asked to come here and troll me. Now I say --> That probably makes you guilty of fraud.

But does it? No. It's mere speculation. Please do not spam the forums with useless speculation.

What TECSHARE, Matthew and myself have said is very clear. Stop posting here. Your input of speculation is not required and you have already voiced your opinion. Thank you for that.


I'm not trying to claim that. You are.

This is a non sequitur. You said quoted above "You didn't pay the contract. Matthew did. And you're refusing to transfer your end of the contract." From this you state I am claiming that the transfer of debt requires me to accept the transfer of performance, which I denied. In other words, when it is convenient for you to make an argument that the transfer of debt alone requires the agreement of the obligee you make it; when it was shown this was accepted by TECSHARE you not only shifted your argument to state that the transfer of debt requires the transfer of performance, but you stated that it was myself who was claiming so (above, emphasis mine).

If this was so, then you would not have been able to claim that the transfer of debt requires the permission of the obligee as was your original contention. And I would have no need to correct you.

In short, you've been caught lying.

I don't recall saying it required the agreement of the obligee. As much as I can see, you essentially defaulted on your end of the agreement and someone else offered to complete the sale. At that point it's out of your hands. I said you claimed you didn't want to transfer the rights to Matthew. If Matthew and Tecshare made some sort of agreement regarding the files, you're no longer in the loop. You refused to pay for the files, so Tecshare (possibly) sold them to someone else. I haven't seen the post yet of Tecshare confirming that, however (that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, just that I haven't seen it).

As far as I can tell: you hired someone to provide artwork for you. They started creating the artwork and possibly finished it (or were about to). You didn't pay for it. A third party offered to buy it and sent a payment to the artist. The artist and this third party possibly worked out a deal for the sale. You want the artist to either give you the artwork that you never paid for or to refund someone else's money to you. The artist is refusing to do so and you're upset. You want my speculation? You're probably trying to drag the argument on as endlessly and convolutedly as possible until everyone gives up and gives you what you want.

But if calling me a liar makes you feel better, go on ahead Wink

I'm not trying to claim that. You are.

Refunding money to the person who did not pay it is not an acceptable response. Greedy on your end, sure. But not acceptable.

It's a fact that people have told you there is a campaign to defame you, not a fact that it's actually true. I have no idea what your business is or why I should care. All I know the situation of you asking for a product you didn't pay for, or else a refund of the money you never paid. And yes, this is my speculation, just like you're speculating that you deserve something you didn't pay for. Nevertheless, this isn't a conspiracy as much as it is common sense.

And you're very welcome Wink
410  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Tecshare lied about me scamming him on: January 04, 2013, 05:31:29 AM
There's a flaw in your legal argument here: you were the one paying for the item in question, right? The assignment of the debt to an assignee is done by the person collecting payment, which would have been TECSHARE. Did TECSHARE contract Matthew as his assignee? Or did Matthew simply offer to pay him for the work he did?

In terms of payment for a good or service, you're the obligor here. Not TECSHARE.


Above you said the flaw in my argument was that TECSHARE did not contract Matthew as the assignee.

I then proved that he did in fact agree to such a transfer on multiple occasions.

Now, you state:

You didn't pay the contract. Matthew did. And you're refusing to transfer your end of the contract.

So TECSHARE has no legal obligation to provide the work to you, since you didn't pay for it.
And TECSHARE has no legal obligation to provide the work to Matthew, since he was paying on a contract he had no right to pay on (since you won't transfer your rights, as you claim).

You seem to be under the impression that I must transfer all rights and obligations together but there is no requirement for me to do so. This isn't an uncommon case. For example sometimes a parent will pay for their children's education. This does not mean the student is not owed time in class.

Furthermore;

I have heard back from Matthew.  It's probably not what anyone wants to hear but it looks like both parties are telling the truth here.  Matthew did make a post saying that he would instruct Tecshare to finish the work and give it to usagi and that usagi should regard it as a gift.  From the information Matthew has shared with me it appears that he didn't actually do that when Tecshare contacted him about whether he (Matthew) wanted the files.

I now demand that the work be finished and given to me, and/or the money be returned, either to me or to Matthew. Any one of these three options is an acceptable settlement for me and I will speak for all CPA investors on that as the issuer.

Why should the money be refunded to you? You never paid it. And Matthew can request his own refund if he wants one. Any CPA is going to take their side on this over yours.

There is no requirement to transfer all your rights and obligations together, but you didn't transfer anything at all. Matthew and Tecshare possibly worked out some sort of deal together outside of your involvement, which gives you no right to demand anything from either of them. You haven't paid for the files you contracted Tecshare for, so you have no right to demand the files from him.

The flaw in your argument was that you put yourself in the shoes of the assignor, which gave Matthew the ability to receive payments on your behalf. You are not the assignor. You are the obligor. You're not really in a position to demand anything.

I've read on this board that you're involved in some sort of business, but I can't imagine you leading investors who have confidence in your financial ability after all this.

This was posted on 12/28/2012:

http://brussels.fr.craigslist.org/fns/3505789483.html

Quote
For those of you that are aware of the digital currency Bitcoin: There has been discovered an exploit that utilizes a series of computers on an "isolated from the internet" back-network that participates in intercepting the data stream where the bitcoins are circulated/stored. The backnet of PC's run a series of algorithms that have the net effect of doubling the bitcoin amount sent to certain addresses. This happens for BOTH receiver and sender to certain bitcoin rcv address programed into the algorythm.

In other words you can double your bitcoins sent total in about 10-30 minutes (the time it takes the algorithm to run and the backnet pc's to sync with the internet bitcoin datastream and finally your PC to also sync with the datastream (bitcoin calls it catchup) after which your amount sent should be returned two fold.

The algorithm will only work with WHOLE numbers at this point in time. So the minimum amount you can double is: 1 bitcoin (not .1 or .01) You can send 1 or 10 or 32 but NOT 1.23 or 10.50!! So ONLY whole amounts -- no cents.

This is working as of Jan 09 2012 and if you wish to double you can simply send any whole amount to bitcoin address:

--> 1NNwtZzLPYWJkabqcenLsqtFFz8BgDmmwe <--

So 1 bitcoin = you get 2 back. 10=20, 23=46, 120=240, ect..
You can use as many times as you wish for any whole amount. If you do not see your bitcoins comeback after about 45 min, make sure you are running bitcoin 0.5.1 beta and if not, get the latest version, install and let it sync. You should see your coins doubled!

Any takers?  Roll Eyes

So Matthew and TECSHARE had this agreement that Matthew would pay for the contract and TECSHARE would give Matthew the files? And TECSHARE offered the files to Matthew? Do I have that right?

I'm still trying to clarify with Matthew whether that was a specific agreement.  Matthew's forum post outright states that he was going to tell Tecshare to complete the work and give it to usagi, which is what usagi is relying on here and he's not lying about that - the post still exists. 

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=103045.msg1131616#msg1131616

I can confirm that the files were offered to Matthew.  Matthew's recollection is that he did not tell Tecshare what to do with the files but merely responded that he didn't need them (rather than telling Tecshare to give them to usagi, as his post indicated he would, or obtaining the files from Tecshare and giving them to usagi himself).

For what it's worth, I think that Matthew saying "I will be instructing Tecshare..." does imply that Matthew believed paying Tecshare entitled him to direct what happened to the files.  usagi certainly didn't object to that at the time.

So if anyone has a claim to the files, it's Matthew (or so it sounds like). At any rate, Usagi can't demand Tecshare to do anything with the files since Usagi didn't pay for them. If Matthew essentially "bought" the files, he and Tecshare need to sort out what to do with them.

You're right but TECSHARE has stated that Matthew was the one that paid him. So he accepted that the transfer took place:

...Mathew M. Wright took mercy on you and paid for the contract...


If Matthew paid TECSHARE with the intention of paying for the contract and the goods it entailed, then I would think TECSHARE should provide him with the artwork. I see that someone is asking Matthew about the terms of the payment, so maybe that will help sort it out.

Actually no. As I stated I refuse to transfer my right to the work I've been promised under contract. Matthew paid for it and TECSHARE agreed he paid for it. I want the work or the money returned. The money can be returned to me or to Matthew.

You didn't pay the contract. Matthew did. And you're refusing to transfer your end of the contract.

So TECSHARE has no legal obligation to provide the work to you, since you didn't pay for it.

Transaction fees are optional now, but there will be no incentive to mine once all the BTC has been mined except for the purposes of earning transaction fees. Some miners may not feel that the small amount of fees to be worth the effort. A lot of people try to speculate how this will be worked around. You might be able to find more info on the wiki as well.
416  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Tecshare lied about me scamming him on: January 04, 2013, 02:19:35 AM
It is precisely because you did not treat me fairly that I do not deal with you. Among other infractions, how dare you suggest I do not have the right to ask for what I have been promised under contract, and which was paid for?

Notice his careful wording here where he claims ownership, yet refuses to admit he made no such payment.

You violated our contract and YOU did not pay. In the court of law that means you have ZERO rights to any work I created. Just because an UNSOLICITED 3rd party paid for the work that was completed up to that point does not mean you have any right to claim completion of the contract. I was not compensated according to the contract, I was compensated by a 3rd party for work currently rendered. You are not owed high resolution images, you are owed what you have up to this point, and you already have it.

So you are saying I had no right to assign the debt to Matthew N. Wright, and therefore, you have not been paid?

http://contracts.uslegal.com/third-parties-and-assignments/

An assignment is a transfer of rights that a party has under a contract to another person, called an assignee.  The assigning party is called the assignor.  An assignee of a contract may generally sue directly on the contract rather than suing in the name of the assignor.  The other party to the original contract is called the obligor.  For example, suppose I sell my car to Larry for $10,000.00.  He does not have $10,000.00 in cash, but executes an agreement stating that he agrees to pay me $500.00 a month for 20 months.  I then assign this contract to Peggy.  Larry is the obligor, I am the assignor, and Peggy is the assignee.

Unless there is a statute that requires that certain language be used in an assignment or that the assignment be in writing, there are really no formal requirements for an assignment.  Any words which show the intent to transfer rights under a contract are sufficient to constitute an assignment.


I think Matthew's intention is pretty clear. What is it that you don't understand about this?

There's a flaw in your legal argument here: you were the one paying for the item in question, right? The assignment of the debt to an assignee is done by the person collecting payment, which would have been TECSHARE. Did TECSHARE contract Matthew as his assignee?

If the amount of bitcoins will stop at 21 million, when the system reaches that limit, won't the miners stop mining?
Miners are supposed to keep this whole thing running, right? Am I missing something here?

Nope, you're not missing anything. That's one of the worries about the future of BTC. It seems that transaction fees will have to become more common to encourage miners to keep up the network. That's my understanding of the bit I've read about it, at any rate. I'm sure more knowledgable board members will provide a better response.
