Ok I have updated to the newest version:
{
"version": 60300,
"protocolversion": 60001,
"walletversion": 60000,
"balance": 0.22,
"blocks": 189965,
"connections": 7,
"proxy": "",
"difficulty": 1866391.30500321,
"testnet": false,
"keypoololdest": 1337701139,
"keypoolsize": 101,
"paytxfee": 0.0,
"errors": ""
}
It seems that some coins have been lost I still get 825 coins in my account, can anyone give me directions how to get rid of that?

Ok, now I'm really confused.
I re-downloaded the blockchain, replaced it, re-scanned it and it still shows the same 825 coins.
The problem is not on your blockchain, but in your wallet.dat Export your addresses and import them into a new wallet. How do I do that? BackupWallet? Do you have direct console access? Could you post "bitcoind getinfo" result? Do you have some wallet backup before all this happened? Allot of questions I know, try to answer at least some of them Yes, yes and I have no backups { "version": 60006, "protocolversion": 60000, "walletversion": 60000, "balance": 0.0, "blocks": 172110, "connections": 5, "proxy": "", "difficulty": 1498294.36281651, "testnet": false, "keypoololdest": 1337701139, "keypoolsize": 101, "paytxfee": 0.0, "errors": "URGENT: upgrade required, see http://bitcoin.org/dos for details" } Thank you people, you have been more than helpful. I just updated it to the newest version and it's currently synchronizing with the network. Hope you work it out, although I see you have 0 balance in there. Don't confuse server balance with accounts, they are two different things, the later only helps you out with the user accounting on your server, while the main balance are the coins it currently stores in all wallets put together. Seem like an upgrade was needed yeah  Btw, having backups is crucial for any online service, at least for the "wallet.dat". On Rugatu we store encrypted backups on three different mediums and locations, like for example server's HDD, separate pendives and wuala cloud storage every hour. You can never be completely sure that everything will work just fine. 3 different locations? Seems like that would compromise security and anonymity it seems much more secure to have backups on an external HDD in a server with 24/7 physical security. Well thanks everyone I hope it's going to work now. |

your change is probably in another address from a transaction you sent
try getbalance("*", 0)
I have got all the addresses associated with that account and there are 120 of them all of which show a 0 balance both on the server and on blockchain. It seems to work with other accounts that have less addresses associated with them. ... i'm not sure what that means the result of getbalance("*", 0) was... 0.49, there are other accounts that aren't bugged though |

I didn't use any trojans or third party applications that I didn't write along with bitcoind.
I am thinking maybe the problem is with another address associated with the account since I'm using GetBalance on the username.

No transactions found for this address, it has probably not been used on the network yet.
This guy is funny.
Even if it was an unconfirmed or double-spend transaction it would be known. I think he is confusing the MySQL database saying the address has coins with bitcoind saying it. I am using a JSON call and yes it shows that it has it. Not the MySQL database |

I have a remote server running Bitcoind along with my server programs where a fraudulent user tried to hack me and one of the accounts is stuck with 825 "fake" bitcoins.
I tried move, I tried SendFrom, I tried SendToAddress all of which fail to send ANY coins at all. I am trying to "filter" the bad ones from the good ones so I expected to send all of them and see the real balance appear but it just throws an exception and nothing happens.
Most probably that you have stolen, and "injected the fake bitcoins", so typical for do these magical applications that offer out there I testing with the same wallet on different devices, I had balances wrong, fix it by exporting and importing my addresses to a new wallet. EDIT: blockchain 0 balance...nothing left to say Ok here is the address: 15hjpvA5PGb4RuJKMspwqwdhaLaP6JLT79 I know for a fact it contains at least SOME real coins since I checked the transactions myself. No it doesn't and never had. http://blockchain.info/address/15hjpvA5PGb4RuJKMspwqwdhaLaP6JLT79Ok well I have 2 addresses, one on my remote server Bitcoind and one that's not mine, the user has claimed he has sent 1 Bitcoin from his address to his address on my server I checked the address he sent the bitcoin from and found the transaction and it seems legit, yet blockchain.info shows NO bitcoins have been EVER received at my address while the Bitcoind on the remote server shows it's all there. |

Can you post the address?
Due to security reasons I can't. Can you kindly point me through the steps you were about to make with the address? Thanks. EDIT: It shows 0 balance in http://blockchain.info even though I know for a fact there are at least 0.3 real coins there FAKE coins?
What I mean by "fake" is they are only verified once by the server since there is no point verifying transactions more than once if the transfer is between local accounts but the hacker managed to fake his balance in the MySQL database I patched up the problem but I am left with 800 of these "fake" coins. |

But I am sending the money to someone else not myself Sorry I misunderstood. Not sure if anyone would be willing to escrow a 3way tx for the obvious reasons. Your BTC -> Vendor. Vendor Cash -> 3rd party. Lots of room for fraud/theft. Say the person you are paying says they never got the cash but the vendor says they mailed it. How do you handle the escrow? Thanks for clarifying I can see how cash would be optimal for a situation like that. Maybe someone else will offer it. The money is sent as a financial support for a family member who is very trusted by me and he isn't a client of any sort. I want to use a traceable letter so there is only the option of him saying he got an empty letter or a letter with not enough money so then it is obviously the vendors fault. |

Hand them across the globe? I guess I am confused then? Sell BTC -> Cash in Mail -> 3 to 5 days -> Cash in your hand. Sell BTC -> MoneyPak -> ATM -> Cash in your hand. Isn't that the apples to apples comparison. What you do after that isn't really part of the comparison. If you need to pay someone someone who isn't local then you will still have to figure out how to get the cash to them but that applies to all forms of cash. Still thanks for your insight I guess some people just want cash. But I am sending the money to someone else not myself |

Are there any other people who can send physical money for coins?
I am curious what advantages mailing money would have over using something like a MoneyPak? Are those advantages significant enough to warrant the risk of loss, theft, fraud ("yes I mailed you the funds last week")? With MoneyPak you still have to deal with your bank/Paypal and pay them big fees and there is a risk your account will get frozen etc. I don't think the risk is any bigger than dealing with your local bank (dem money grabbing fuckers) provided you use escrow and the seller has good rep and possibly some form of insurance. What if I want to pay someone in USD from my coins? First I need to pay the MoneyPak fee, then the PayPal fee, then both my banks and Paypal fees for transferring the money to the bank, then wait 2 weeks for it to show up, then pay the bank fees for international money transfer, then wait 2 weeks and even then the person I am sending money to is risking of the payment bouncing back or both our accounts getting frozen AND after all that BS I still need to pay my banks monthly fee. Or MoneyPak fee and withdraw from an ATM, and hand them the cash the same day? Hand them across the globe? |

The question you should really be asking is what advantages does transferring money 2000 times and paying fees every time has to do over mailing it. |
