As a few of you know, some phisher tried to collect e-mail addresses and Bitcoin addresses a few days ago by asking for them in private messages, claiming he wants to give away BTC. I replied and used a throw-away e-mail address to see what happens, and I just got the following e-mail: From: contact@coindesk.com
Subject: New Bitcoin exchange secured 10% higher prices
News has emerged that a bitcoin exchange service has opened in Iowa, USA. The bitcoin exchange http://btcmonetize.com allows you to transfer bitcoin to the traditional fiat currency - the dollar.
With intention to attract new clients, for the next 12 hours http://www.btcmonetize(.)com secured 10% higher bitcoin price compared to the other exchanges.
At this moment the value of 1 Bitcoin is:
BtcMonetize: $646.1
Coinbase: $595.99
BitStamp: $593.00

BTC Reward offered BTCHe writes:I messed up big time. I sent this address 800 bitcoin: 113MmkyjjH6zS9VMvbwrhBNoMe6upzdvNC https://blockchain.info/address/113MmkyjjH6zS9VMvbwrhBNoMe6upzdvNCI had previously sent this address 300 bitcoin a year ago, and for the life of me I cannot remember what that was! Any and all help appreciated. The answer comes:Mystery solved: this is a MtGox address. You sent 300 to it one year ago ae1332a4-f3c0-4805-89d4-396387e7a96e,8c71169c-c0b2-46a8-97c8-8940cf2bb89a,"2013-04-16 18:37:04",deposit,300 So. I guess my goxcoins just became 800/202000 = 0.4% more worth. Thanks buddy. Jokes aside this clearly sucks. I would recommend that you write a PHYSICAL letter and send it off to Japan. If you have better advice for him besides "send a letter to Japan," please reply to him in the thread below.http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/273vi2/if_you_just_received_800_bitcoin_out_of_the_blue/Thanks!

That image of KNC's poorly packaged boards being damaged is bad news.  |

My typical 30 day trading volume is 300k at minimum.
And you didn't notice you were being ripped off? If I had I would have been the OP. Shit happens. I guess that somehow as "obvious" as it must have been, none of the other handful of people who use stamp noticed it either. Our bad. Still no reply to my comment on their facebook or the tweet I sent them. Link to tweet? I will check quality and retweet. |

Hi.
I have a problem. I reset my phone to factory default and I've lost Poloniex verification codes on Google Authenticator.
How can I access my account now? Any idea?
Thanks for your help
You will go to poloniex website and contact the admin there. From now on, always take screenshots and/or print out those codes prior to enabling 2FA. |
