The Bitcoin CEO got arrested 

Do you have any ideas on my qren issue?

Cinnamon_carter is right. Obviously, the twitter account was created before this happened, and is proof that I am legit, you are not. I already know someone who lost BTC to you. You are disguising keylogging software in the wallet  .

Got it fixed! Now I got all up to qrencode. Here is  my error on configure:


Any ideas?

Oh. It says

I am getting this error:


when I make openssl.

I have followed the guide exactly. I saw it just changed today, I am using openssl1.0.1g. I do still have perl and python installed, but I don't think that would do it. I set the path environment.

What am I doing wrong?

Records can malfunction, they can be forged.

I am not saying this is what happened, but the agent could have been lying.

I don't feel I was hacked. I think this was a server error on there end.

Hello all!

I understand what you are all saying. I know for a fact I am not lying, but I understand if you think I am. I am just looking to watch out for other people, and that is why I posted this. If you do not want to believe, suit yourself.

Personal answer to each of you:

coiner8:

Chose what you want to believe. I know for a fact that I was the only one on that computer, and I did not enter the trade.

Wolf_Pack:

Security issue? Look at the news at the top of this site.


I got hit by that before I was able to change it.

Bit_Happy:

Suit yourself!

MrWDunne:

That is not true, but believe what you want.

Rulishix:

I believe this was a server error on there end, but yes, I agree.

You are correct. I would put a note like cryptsy to say "Do not mine to this address", only send confirmed coins.

I was the only one logged in on that computer. I always logged out right after I got in. I am saying there system has a bug because I cannot reasonably log in and then within 1 Minute and complete the trade. Bugs do happen. It is up to you to believe me about this. If you don't, I respect your opinion. But, I know that the computer there did NOT make a trade, so on my end I know it was a MintPal bug. It is hard to get you guys to believe me. Believe what you want. I am leaving MP before I get toasted on more money. Maybe they were patient to go through this with me, but I think not.

What more evidence do you need?

Hello,

I am sorry to say it, but I am leaving MintPal. I really liked there webpage and trading platform. But, I have to leave after this issue.

The issue:

I logged onto MintPal from a PC at a friends house. I was on multiple times throughout the afternoon. I was following WC, viewing the page every once and a while, but I was out in the morning, and was going to get back in around 1700 satoshis.  That evening, after I got back to my PC at home, I saw I owned 3000 WC. I was like, I never bought WC? The trade price was 2116 satoshis, a lot more than where I was gonna get in. Of course, I was not going to get in (I already owned coins). Looking into the trade records, I see the trade was placed a minute after I logged into the MintPal for that time. That is impossible, as it takes 30 seconds just to make a trade blindly, let alone look at the charts. So I messaged MintPal support. Here is dialog: (If you do not want to read the dialog skip to the end)


Me opening ticket:

Hello,

I logged into my account today, and I was following Whitecoin. I was out of it at the time, so I was not following it carefully. I saw it dropped to 1700ish. I did not think anything of it. Then, I saw my balance of WC as 3000, I was really confused. I think there was an Unauthorized Trade on my account. I have changed my password in case someone hacked my account. I would like to get my BTC back, the 0.063BTCish that was charged my account. I am down %20 right now, on 0.063, not much for you, but a bunch for me. Can you fix this?

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Brandon,

I'm afraid once coins have been traded or withdrawn there is nothing we can do.

Thanks

My reply:

Jason,

I understand if I complete a trade there is no way to reverse it. But in this case, I did not do the trade. Somehow, your software completed a trade without me (a bug in your software???), or someone got into my account, whether on the front end (website) or back end (server). Either way, it is not my fault that this happened. Maybe you should require email confirmation to trade. This does not help my experience at MintPal.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Brandon,

You can check the login history on your account to see if someone else logged in and did it.

It would be best to set up 2FA on your account if you do not currently have it.

Regards,
Jay
MintPal

Me:

I can set up 2FA, but that still does not change the fact that I am still out my BTC.

I see the trade went through at 19:15 and 19:28 MintPal time.

 The closest login attempt was 19:14, and that was me. I did not put a trade in a minute after I logged in.

Thanks,
Brandon

Hi Brandon,

It's simply impossible that the trades would happen by themselves, and we would have it the orders logged in our system being placed by your IP. Checking your order history in our database, we can see a buy order was placed at price 0.00002116 at 7:15pm (I don't believe it was ever this high, so it must have auto traded at the best price). Other trades would be from older orders you had placed in the markets.

Regards,
Jay
MintPal  

Note: The support person (Jay) closed the case, I had to reopen it.  Why did he close the case, it was not resolved?

Me:

Hello,

Can you tell me the IP the order was placed from?

Thanks,
Brandon

Them:

Hi Brandon,

The IP is (IP of my friends house), which does look like yours based on your other login history.

It might be worth scanning your computer for keyloggers/spyware if you're absolutely certain you didn't place that order.

Regards,
Jay
MintPal

Me:

Hello,

Yes, I was on that computer for a time. I will definitely check it for spyware. I am very sad that you cannot fix this, the total trade was only 0.06 BTC, MP makes 7.5 BTC a day right now. I only have 0.16 BTC in my balance, so this is huge to me. I am certain I did not place this order, I would not have opened this ticket.

Thanks,
Brandon

Them:

Hi Brandon,

Please let us know if you find any malware that could have been responsible for the trade

Thanks

Me:

Hello,

There is no malware on that PC. Note: I scanned with Malwarebytes. I have used malwarebytes before, and it is reliable and has always found malware.

Thanks,
Brandon

Me:

This is not closed. It has not been resolved, the BTC is not back in my account. Note: Here is another spot where they closed the case.

Them:

Hi Brandon,

Im afraid we have the proof that the order was done with your IP. We can't just credit you because then everyone could just start claiming they didn't make an order when they lose out.

There is nothing we can do regarding this I am afraid.

Regards,
Jay
MintPal

Me:

Can I have the proof it was done by our IP?

Them:

Brandon,

The proof can be seen by looking at your login history, somebody logged into your account from your IP address moments before the order was submitted. We also have the access logs from our webservers, looking through those it's quite clear the order was submitted from your IP. The first two entries are the login process, the third is the order submission.

Thanks

Me:

This is where I am confused. I placed an order 1 minute after I logged in? I tested it, and it takes 30 seconds to do it blindly, let alone have time to check charts. I NEVER trade without researching it, you can look at my past history. So, I see what you are saying, but I think the server records on your end were forged or glitched.

Them:

Brandon,

You are entitled to your opinion however we have stated the facts on several occasions. The odds are severely stacked against your argument, the fact is that the logs clearly show the order having been submitted from your IP address, the login history clearly shows you (or somebody from your IP address) logging into your account moments before the order was submitted.

Regardless of the above, as we have mentioned already, we will not be returning the BTC balance.

Thanks

Me:

I understand what you are saying.

I am a little disappointed about this, that MP will lose a customer over such a small amount. I will be moving my balance to Cryptsy. I really like MintPal's website, but oh well.

Me:

Also,

I am very suprised that such a big exchange, and a reputable one, would risk making a customer unhappy. But, I am not you, nor making MintPals decisions. I am just saying, If I would be running MintPal, that I would put more importance to keeping customers happy.


Me:

Also, I am a software developer, and I know that 1. records can be forged and 2. bugs/glitches do happen, expecially in complex trading software.

Them:

Brandon,

Sorry that you feel you have to leave. Enjoy Cryptsy.

Thanks Note: He closed the case here again. I did not reopen it.



In Summary

I am very dissapointed MP would lose a customer over this. I have withdrawn my balance to cryptsy already. Also, I feel that they are boasting "great support", and this was far from it. Reasons:

1.

Closed the case multiple times, acting like it was resolved.

2.

Repeatedly stating they will not refund the BTC, it seemed I was talking to a wall.


There are more you can catch if you read the dialog.

If you are MintPal:

If this gets resolved I will delete this post. Maybe there is a misunderstanding here, but right now I cannot see it.

Closing:

Whether you chose to believe me or not, please consider this message.

If you do not: My other account is thecryptodude01, it has been hacked.

Thank you for reading this!

Is this closed?

If someone solves it, they can steal the coins.

New transactions in general are not allowed to be traded if they are newly generated. No coin has changed that yet. So, accept DOGE, LTC, CRAP, whatever, and it will not allow sending newly mined coins.

Same... 900 Million   I caught on when BTC was at $1200

I would recommend BlockChain.info for merchants

That faucet is the "base". Little modifications include backround color, Text, etc. As of now there is no referral system. That is a lot more advanced, you need to record users and their BTC address with a MySQL DB, then have it report to the webpage hidden, and when a user requests coins it would have to get the referring link, find it in the DB, find the address of that user, and send them a portion. 

Hello,

I will develop simple faucets for someone. I can host it on my servers, or I can set them up on yours. I will not fund the faucet.

Sample Faucet:


http://54.186.214.68/BlackFaucet/public_html/index.php

Pricing:

1 Faucet little/no modifications 0.02 BTC or the equivalent of $10 USD

1 Faucet with modifications 0.03-0.075 BTC depending on how heavy the modifications. Or the equivalent of $15-$37.50 USD

2 Faucets little/no modifications 0.03 BTC or the equivalent of $15 USD

2 Faucets with modifications 0.05-0.10 BTC depending on how heavy the modifications. or the equivalent of $25-$50 USD

3 Faucets little/no modifications 0.04 BTC or the equivalent of $20 USD

3 Faucets with modifications 0.10-0.15 BTC depending on how heavy the modifications. or the equivalent of $50-$75 USD

4 Faucets little/no modifications 0.045 BTC or the equivalent of $22.5 USD

4 Faucets with modifications 0.12-0.20 BTC depending on how heavy the modifications. or the equivalent of $60-$90 USD


PM for more details!

Thanks!

I am the same person as the original owner of thecryptocoindude account. It was hacked, and they updated the main post with a virus. I am using the dropbox download (the original one), and many other people are too. I will look into the virus, but it could just be a generic wallet thing.
