Its funny how people all of a sudden come up with ideas to avoid spam,especially after the merit system broke everybody's lives Cry

In ‘wаllеt’, the second character is a cyrillic ‘a’ and the fifth a cyrillic ‘ie’, encoded in Unicode. This kind of scam is known as a homograph attack. You can find all characters using normal search as long as you’re searching for those exact characters.
If this is really a thing,phising sites would only become more complicated to identify in the future.
LoyceV,that is very much surprising what you have found.

Sorry fella I couldn't resist
No problemo. Humor is a must in most circumstances.
Issue solved. Thread locked.

Assuming it's an android phone you need to pop the screen, pull the red cable from the mike then add a dollop of superglue and attach it to the charging cable. Once it is dry you need to charge the phone fully then put it in the freezer for 24 mins, then in the microwave for 12 hours without turning it on.

Once those steps are complete you need to take your phone to a full length mirror. Reassemble the phone then record yourself as you repeatedly punch yourself in the face for being such a prick

That's the NSA. They're on to you.
Please tell me you're being sarcastic.  Cry

Nope it's the tracking software they use. It connects to the big brother server and sends a direct link from your microphone
What the heck...

SMH. It's off now. I reinstalled it and it's gone I suppose.

I see only two options now. You can reinstall browser, that would probably solve the problem.
Second is, installing some protective software to check if your phone is infected, and trying to clean it.
Last resort would be factory reset (hard reset), that would  probably clean your phone. But I know little about viruses, maybe some  could stay even after hard reset, but I doubt it.
I installed malwarebytes, avast Antivirus and AVG, and none of them showed any signs. Maybe I should try reinstalling. A factory reset will be the last thing I'll do because I have transfer a lot of data first. I'll see what happens after reinstallation.

I have never seen that symbol before. I use Chrome on my phone, and I don't have that symbol.
There are tree possibilities:
- its related to your phone (possible if only you have that symbol, but I doubt this possibility)
- its related to browser you use (try out some other browser, if symbol is still thare than its not browser)
- its related to some setting from the forum (but non comes to my mind)

Honestly I doubt its harmful, but I understand your concern. Tell us when you find the explanation or solution.

EDIT: I have installed Firefox on my android, and tried to make post and p.message. Waited for some time, but symbol didn't show. So I guess its not browser related, but it would be good if other people try it as well.
Funny thing,I have cloned Firefox app and I have two Firefox browsers on my phone. This symbol only shows up on in the main browser and not in that of the duplicate. I believe only I'm experiencing this atleast from what I have known. And I don't think this is there in chrome either.
Have you got voice input disabled for google or some other voice to text writer?
I haven't. I doubt it's related to voice related issue.
The symbol looks like a wifi/signal connection. However  I'm also not familiar with it, but if you find nothing weird on your phone and if it's working normal just like before I think you don't have to worry about anything.
I suspect that a hacker is tracking me, am very suspicious about it.

Joe, I'm not promising when and how much I'll send but I'll surely do so at least once. Am sort of busy right now and in a month's time, after I get free and if this campaign is still running, I'd further provide help. I might send you some funds over tomorrow if possible, I still haven't decided how much.

Have not seen this symbol before, maybe it has something to do with wifi or internet connection?
Even if it does why is it showing up in a text editor while you write posts.
Looks like the Volume is muted on your phone?
Nope. Has no relation whatsoever.
One more thing I noticed, initially no symbols show up but a few seconds later they do. I  use Firefox on Android so if it is related to that... Is it by any chance a sort of a keylogger?
1452  Other / Meta / For some reason I find this symbol suspicious... on: March 04, 2018, 07:11:55 AM
Hey ya'll,
Since a couple of days I have been noticing a weird symbol while I make a post or send a message to someone on this forum via my mobile. I'm for some reason a bit worried on this.
Wait for it... Image is loading
Its on the bottom right corner. Should I worry about this? Is this dangerous? Theymos, you have anything to say on this? Is it a problem on my phone? Or in general? Or should I just let go?

Oooh! I'll also help Cheesy Another runner up award? Or a third prize? Or merits as an additional incentive alongside that one merit? I'll gladly do it. If you need me to send some cash as prizes, I'll send tomorrow itself, and you yourself can reward the winners.

Question: We ya'll have been on this forum for quite some time all thanks to Satoshi or whatever his real name is. Most of us even earn on this forum, some people even abuse it but we never thank anybody for it. If Satoshi ever returns to this forum or rather reveals himself IRL, what will you do to make the world a better place? How will you thank him? People say bitcoin is shit and is useless but it did reach 20,000$ and a lot of people became millionaires and billionaires because of it and yet there's no token of appreciation. So elaborate on how you're going to thank Satoshi. Even theymos has played a big part, so he deserves a hell a lot of appreciation. Bring it in.
This is not a question where you are going to learn about bitcoin, but I felt bad on people being such assholes and cunts. Learn to thank people for what they are and how they are trying to make this world a better place to live in every single day.

Finally thank you people. I have learnt so much from this forum than I ever thought I would, now it's my turn to pass the light to the new ones.

1459  Economy / Services / Re: [FULL] ChipMixer Signature Campaign | 0.00075 BTC/post on: February 25, 2018, 03:09:12 AM
Whoop, whoop. Payment received.
Stats for this week:

Average: 43.86 (21.5% increase from last week)
Median: 33 (17.8% increase from last week)
Total: 2544 (21.6% increase from last week)

This campaign now represents 3.08% (8% increase from last week) of all merits given on the forum. (2544/82394)
These stats are flabbergasting. The percentage increase makes it even sound even better. Thanks DarkStar_ for all of your hard work and dedication into this. Long live Chipmixer!

Bump. Any additions?
Mention about the possibility of merit decay if merit is received through unfair means or if the merit being hoarded?
Why not merge FAQ: Everything you need to know about forum 'activity' and ranks and Forum ranks/positions/badges (What do those shiny coins under my name mean?)? This would reduce the amount of stickies-> more possibility of newbies to read them seeing the lesser number of huge-ass threads.
