I sell amazon.com gift codes ($2000) with 15% discount. We'll use Escrow. payment BTC XMR. PM to agree on terms.
I'll bet you a McDonald's Happy Meal that if you add a $2000 (or $1000 or even smaller) Amazon Gift card to your account it will be closed within a couple hours and any order placed will be cancelled. Escrow is meaningless with ANY gift card deal because by the time the account is closed escrow will have been released and the buyer will be SOL. |

This guy is basically selling $500 for $250 and is likely a scammer or selling cards loaded illegally for money laundering purposes or whatever else you might imagine/. Buy this and the only thing you may find is getting arrested for grand theft.

LOL. Aside from being a 1st post newbie with probably multiple other alts ff there is ANYTHING that screams "scam or carded" this would be it. Anyone dumb enough to buy into this deserves what they get ... which would either be nothing or arrested.

This is a bump
No, actually "this is a scam" |

This is a bump thank you
This clown rbgtefsdaxf (NOW BANNED) is (obviously) an alt of the OP of this topic and 1 of probably 50 other accounts. You can see a partial list in post #2 of this topic. |

LOL, I did BEFORE you posted!  (sort-of) pwned!I received several negative trust. Okay. I was able to get access to SPQRCoin yesterday answering "1+1" with "2". No joke. He is in DefaultTrust level 2. greenplastic gave negative trust to me. Now he is security locked for using "5" as answer to "how old was justin in 1980?". He was warned and had left this stupid question (answer should be between 0 and 99, the rate limit is one try per 45 second and IP address - in reality, you get a bunch of IPs and laugh about the limit).Proof: https://bitcointalk.org/seclog.phpFor the record: - Today at 06:39:10 PM - greenplastic - password reset via secret question
My hat is a little bit grey, so I probably would have switched the stupid negative feedback against myself to positive before locking the account. lulz. His negative feedback against you is still there. Yes, I think that you are probably not malicious. You are definitely a little bit naïve. Security questions are a joke and should be disabled. There are members using questions with a probably secure question or maybe even fake questions, but "1+1" is a joke. In case of greenplastic, he did not even understand the problem. We should think of who is member of DefaultTrust.
Security lock is a good thing for sure, otherwise I would control two DefaultTrust accounts now, one of them being inactive for months. Thank god, I was not able unlocking using a fake mail. I want to see security questions disabled, option to disable email recovery per account and 2FA introduced. BCT is about large sums and does not have up-to-date security mechanisms.
I gave only 5 merits for this, because I am widely merit-boycotted; I need to save up, so I can afford to give more when you make a thread about this. I want public key authentication. Disable password authentication (like in sshd). Has the Bitcoin Forum ever heard of such a thing as digital signatures? Do people here do crypto, or not? Sigh. I made some suggestions years ago. Nothing happened. Your way is better: Teach a little lesson, which will be less painful coming from you than from someone who actually wants to pwn a bunch of accounts. It will more likely result in positive changes.
Check the username. Does it remind you the user alia?
 Get a grip. No other way to say this: That is ridiculously stupid. Yes, I may be stupid but how are you so sure 🤣 Because I knew alia as I wish for people not to be reminded—ugh. A smooth-talking gambling addict sex scammer, likely from India or SEA (IIRC), who only temporarily fooled people with a pretense of some technical skills. Not a German hacker who just kindly refrained from helping himself to some tasty DT accounts. To make a connection based only on a very vague similarity of names verges on how schizophrenics find secret messages in white noise. |

While it seems that it is possible that what you were doing REALLY was "for the good of mankind" and possibly completely altruistic, I believe you went about it the wrong way. Don't you think simply starting a topic here in META might have avoided the panic created? You have to admit, the PM's did sound a bit "scammy" as you put it in the title of the PM, and the results, while possibly an overreaction, wouldn't or shouldn't have been totally unexpected. Edit: Whatever the motive, you did jolt me into changing my password for the first time in years and to remove my "secret word" for which I didn't even know the answer which I put in when I joined years ago! Thank you for that. I received several negative trust. Okay. I was able to get access to SPQRCoin yesterday answering "1+1" with "2". No joke.

@nullius I think you have too much faith in the goodness of humanity. Of course you may be right but you have to look at where you are and what often goes on around here and in this world (forum world not geographic world). User in question recently changed email which can possibly also mean a hacked account. Do any of his/her previous posts have such altruistic discussions on protecting all of Bitcointalk humanity? The PM's in question seems way out of character for the posters past conversations. But I guess one never knows. |

Just to avoid duplicate thread, we can further our discussion on this other thread that was created before this one: weird pm receivedWHat he said ^^^^^^^ Topic locked. |

LOL, just got this PM from a user named: newalias (reported) Guess my "entropy" is too low.
MESSAGE TITLE: Security warning - scammy title, serious concern
Hi there,
you are member of DefaultTrust. Therefore, the security of your account is crucial.
However, you have a security question in place, what often means lower entropy than a secure password and maybe being easier to guess. Simplest thing I have seen in DefaultTrust was "1+1" with answer "2" was correct - I have frozen it for security. Easy questions ask for an age (try 0-99) or a birth year (try 1940-2022) or lower case initials (try aa-zz). Many questions ask for a city or a make of first car - brute force can help. And there are loads of questions for names of wife, birth names, pet names and so on. These are things that may be shared even in a post or require only your real name! The better people know the account owner, the better they know the answer!
Recommended action to take is to remove security question at all. Please get back to me stating how you improved account security. If I do not get a reply, I need to inform board administration for our all safety.
I started with whole DefaultTrust as I think the base of community should be secured first. Later, I will go for more users. Captcha is useless as I use some trick I will only discuss with theymos.
Thank you!

Hello My friend sent me a gift to buy the product. But I refused to buy the product. The code was not used. Got it from here. https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-1_US_Email-eGift-Card/dp/B004LLIKVUI can give with 75% btc. Skype: live:.cid.3fed6e268fc88d24 Please before you question my credibility
Check out my trading threads here and look for the negatives.Not questioning your credibility but I did exactly as you suggested in your post and checked out **ALL** 22 of the SELLING topics YOU STARTED and none of them had any replies or any sales. Yes, there were no negatives but there is no POSITIVES either. Your $1000 card interests me but you have zero sales rep that I can find. Please show some of the SELLING REP you are talking about. I asume you would take forum escrow, yes? Why would you "refuse to buy" something that someone gave you $1000 gift card to buy? |

Having bought a lot of stuff from Milkz I can only say I fully trust him and his rep here FAR exceeds yours. And you asked why I negged YOU, just read the REASON. I think it's pretty obvious. Beware of sellers, especially newbies, selling from locked and/or self-moderated threads. Make sure you use BITCOINTALK TRUSTED ESCROW for any of these questionable transactions. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=276897.0This entire topic is simply a waste of bandwidth. |

Considering you sent me a PM I will respond here. Not sure why your PM even got through because I don't accept PM's from newbies. I am not removing any feedback based on your report since Heisenberg63 has had a stellar record for years with me and many others. That is NOT TO SAY it didn't happen butthere is a lot more to it.
Anyway, based on your story:
Did you try contacting Amazon? If your account is legit and is aged (either one or both of those things which I am betting it is not) they will shut down your account after you add THOUSANDS of $$$ in gift card within a short period of time as you said you did. $8000? (I don't believe for a second he sold you $8000 in cards) is totally insane to dump into an account new or old in a short time. That didn't (or doesn't) mean the cards are bad it means the person doing that dumb move had very little common sense. My Amazon account is 22 years old and was shut down once about a year ago after adding 4 gift cards but after first chatting then calling them they opened it again and apologized. I highly doubt you have done that.
That being said, anything is possible but at this time I'm going with cockpit (user) error. Just you PM'ing me saying he is a scammer doesn't do it for me AT THIS TIME.
My account is 8+ years old, under my name my address and everything. I have used it personally till the time i start buying cards from him. I emailed amazon and i got this answer: https://imgur.com/a/JVqzsmcMy account will remain locked and it got in that situation just because i used those cards. I did mistake typing 8k in first place, because my hands were shaking (which is normal) for losing that kind of money My FINAL comment to you about this: I fully understand your feelings of frustration however nowhere in that email does it say the cards were stolen so it proves nothing but only reinforces my opinion that you fucked up by putting in too many at once and it raised security suspicions from their AI system. If they were stolen cards you most certainly would have heard (and possibly seen the police at your front door). I understand your frustration (I had been scammed a number of times but not for a very large amount). Heisenberg63 has a long and good reputation so it will take a lot for me to believe he intended to scam you. Now that is **MY** opinion and of course I could be wrong but I doubt it. No one can babysit what you do with the codes once you get them. Sorry you lost your money. And to add after reading your last message: YOU LOST $10,000 !!!! YOU MUST BE KIDDING! YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THEY WERE HIS CARDS THAT WERE THE PROBLEM. If you put that much GIFT CARDS into an account I would shut it down too! You fucked up. PERIOD! |

I'm an atheist, can I just get a THOUGHT for half the price of a T & P? Only if you accept escrow.
