We think they are just doing their best to contribute positively to this great forum
It's going to get your thread trashed as soon as someone reports it. What you think does not overrule the forum rules.

We need a trusted user to create a central database of bounty managers.   Then, as a community, we distrust and harass those managers that do not register in the database.
Something like this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4412712.0 ?

The Bitcointalk forum is not the place for such databases/registries. They should be third party.
Shameless self-plug for BPIP? I'd be down to help creating/maintaining that, if you choose to host it on your site.

For the sake of people being stupid, can you please break those links (yes, you have added a disclaimer to NOT click them, but let's make it impossible to click them).
If you do not want to alter the content, just add [code ][/code ] tags around them.
324  Other / Meta / [Ban Evasion] Wapinter (u=527272), WBP (u=2094446) [& btvGainer (u=550869)] on: June 17, 2018, 05:48:31 PM
In this post, the user Wapinter admits they are in control of the two accounts btvGainer and Wapinter Bounty Portal.
They also admit they never sold/bought any accounts, which would mean that they have always been in control of those accounts.

I only own 2 other accounts besides this one.Btvgainer and Wapinter bounty portal.I am not involved in account selling.I still own all my accounts.

Furthermore, they also admit that WBP is currently banned (for 30 days, apparently). They admit that the ban is not yet lifted and still active.

I promptly lock the thread as soon as I learnt that a campaign I am managing is dubious. Unfortunatly xeonframe was posted by Wapinter bounty portal which is not available due to ban for 30 days hence I can not lock the thread but I am deleting the forms and posting this info in spreadsheet too.

Combining #1 and #2, they openly admit to be evading the ban on WBP with their alt account Wapinter, which they use to manage/bump the bounty threads posted by (the currently banned) WBP.



Wapinter Bounty Portal: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2094446 [account is currently banned]
Wapinter: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=527272 [account is active, evading ban on WBP]
btvGainer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=550869 [account is inactive, no ban evasion]
325  Other / Meta / Re: Most of bounty manager's are too careless about scam ICO. on: June 17, 2018, 05:26:44 PM
The only reason I can think is that some managers are paid daily/weekly with real btc/eth and if this is true there is no point for them to report a scam even if they find it since they will get money anyway.
NOTE: This is a personal supposition, I don't know how they are paid.
Having been in charge of a few campaigns, and having talked with the "managers" that are involved in the cases cited here, I have to say, this is wrong, at least for those incidents I am aware of.
Managers usually get paid once they complete their work (which is either at the end of a round when a payment is made, or at the complete end of the campaign). Neither of the managers in these cases saw any money.
ughh123 themselves admitted that they have been scammed (not paid for their managing) in not only the TQ campaign, but also at least two campaigns before that.

The way I see it is that a lot of super inexperienced people are looking to find their way into management positions, without really knowing what it means, what they should be doing, and what the risks are.
By making theses steps, they do not only take an uncalculated risk themselves, they also put others at risk (the people joining the bounty, trusting the manager).
And I'm not saying that new people shouldn't start managing campaigns, we all have been inexperienced at some point. But they should take more time to educate themselves and research, before they take onto positions.



Although one example of a situation like the one described in your post comes to mind, the aTriz incident.
I would however hope this is an exception and not all managers are acting like this.
326  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam ICO XeonFrame with fake team. Be aware from them. on: June 17, 2018, 05:14:10 PM
Dear Bounty managers, Please take a look at these discussions:
TOKENPAY ⚡ SCAMMED 1 MILLION $ FROM BOUNTY AND REFERRAL PROGRAM ⚡
TokenPay Charity Bounty Program - Help Us to Raise Voice Against Tokenpay Scam
We are participants in the TokenPay Bounty campaign and Derek Capo CEO of TokenPay decided not to pay us the Bounty campaign because he alleges that our Bounty manager jamalaezaz was cheating him with fraudulent Wallet addresses.
Please, we need help!
Off topic in here, you should start a seperate scam accusation against jamalaezaz / TokenPay and investigate who's responsible in this instance.
Though you also should consider the feedback of accounts before starting to participate in bounties managed by them, and jamal has a long history of terribly managed campaigns and failures.
Look at who you trust to be your manager, check their past jobs, jamal has a long list of feedbacks pointing out what you really should know about them.

Updating this Thread about XCOV CASE, I have tried many times to talk with the team but they are avoiding me. All admins has blocked me and banned me on their telegram. So today i am declaring this project as scam ico and will update also in my bounty thread.
You had no funds escrowed on behalf of participants, thus are not able to offer them any protection, correct?
Meaning everyone who was part of the bounty campaign will go unpaid for whatever tasks they have done, right?
328  Economy / Reputation / Re: Gleb Gamow account was sold Proof on: June 16, 2018, 11:44:58 PM
Suchmoon should be given negative trust.  It is setting a dangerous precedent if we allow high ranked users to break the rules of this forum.
What's this "dangerous precedent" that is being set here?
Suchmoon offering to lend Bruno money for an indefinite amount of time, meanwhile securing the GG account, so it cannot be sold or used for any possibly malicious action, is that it?
The way I see it, suchmoon helped a bitcoiner in need and eliminated a possible risk with their decision.

If suchmoon uses the account in any way (be it signature campaigns, any other posting, trading, or in the worst case leaving feedback), then yes, this is a problematic situation that should be addressed.
But as long as suchmoon's control over the account simply means they are locking anyone else (either Bruno or a possible buyer) from using the account to cause harm, I do not see the problem/danger here.
329  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WON 2000+ LTC on Fortunejack - Withdrawals being delayed, FJ stalling. on: June 16, 2018, 11:33:31 PM
To be frank, FJ is known for taking a long ass unreasonable time to process withdrawals.
They've drawn attention to themselves several times in the past, with accusations about unprocessed withdrawals, them intentionally delaying transactions and stalling.

Eg it took them almost 4 months to eventually process a 3BTC withdrawal earlier this year (from October 2017 to February 2018).
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2961440.0
Similar situation a month earlier, with a ~6BTC withdrawal being paid after a delay of 3 months.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2697105.0

I would assume you'll get your money, eventually. As for how long and how much effort from your end it will take you, no clue.

Meanwhile (and maybe also in the future after your withdrawal(s) have been processed),
I'd suggest to stick to other sites which have a reputation of processing transactions quickly and without much hassle.

Watching, following and tagging the accounts in question.



Thank you. I will do it today . Their Project Manager will contact me tomorrow and whatever we discuss i will update on this thread.
Your initial reaction to the accusations was good, what's the status of your follow up research about the situation?
331  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam ICO XeonFrame with fake team. Be aware from them. on: June 16, 2018, 11:05:15 PM
well, I've been looking at that thread and I've seen something very weird, there are some participants with negative feedbacks who says this: "Cheating bounty with alt accounts." And yet the bounty manager has not removed them from the campaign, which makes it very strange
Given that Wapinter themselves have a history with multiple accounts and account sales, that rule is somewhat ironic.

Main reason to say scam for fake team members picture.
just this week I've seen many cases of ICOs with this same problem, maybe they are projects executed by the same scammers
This is the third thread this week I am aware of now. There's likely more to come/not discovered yet.

Bounty manager should lock their bounty and update about their scam. People will wast their time.
I'm considering to start leaving feedback for "managers" that do not do even the least amount of research before accepting a position and starting a bounty thread.
If the "managers" would check just as much as you do, they'd easily catch these scams, and not only save themselves some trouble, but also their participants and possible investors.



As with the last two threads, watching for the reaction from the manager and their taken actions.
332  Economy / Reputation / Re: Gleb Gamow account was sold Proof on: June 16, 2018, 10:50:07 PM
That somebody right now is me and I'm quite confident I was dealing with Bruno:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2544574.msg40211259#msg40211259

So from my point of view the timeline is this:

1) Bruno needs money, makes the ill-conceived decision to sell the Gleb Gamow account.
2) Some sales action takes place, including PMs, but I don't believe the account changes hands.
2a) I can't explain the changes in posting style though Bruno is known for elaborate trollery so...
3) Unable to sell the account Bruno enrolls in a sig campaign to make money.
4) PMs get published, Bruno gets red-tagged and loses campaign revenue.
5) I make an offer to prevent the account from falling into malicious hands should Bruno decide to sell it again.
6) Bruno takes me up on my offer and now I temporarily control the account. When/if Bruno gets it back I will state so publicly.

Even if I'm wrong about some part of this, the fact is the account is in my hands. I'm fully aware of the irony given my stance against account sales and sockpuppetry and the aforementioned impossibility of proving account ownership but I've already stated I won't be using it for anything so it will be really easy to see if I'm telling the truth or not.

Hopefully this puts an end to the drama. Given the circumstances it seemed to me like the best way out. I would appreciate if you could remove neg trust as I don't believe Bruno deserves it but that's really up to you.
I've left a neutral tag refering to your post (and quoting it now for reference as well), contact me in case the situation changes in any way and I'll make sure to adjust my feedback based on the new situation.

It will be fascinating to see how art morphs over the years as people become familiar with the blockchain world. Not only for art inspiration, but how it's bought/sold, and authenticty as well.
Does any artist do PGP chain of ownership for their artworks yet?
The only thing that comes to mind are Casascius coins sometimes being sold with a PGP signed chain to verify authenticity and account for the whereabouts over the years.
(Sorry for somewhat derailing the thread, but this point seemed too interesting to not comment on it).



I love the latest artwork, OP. Especially the latest one. Keep up the good work.
You could move your thread in the Collectibles section (Marketplace > Goods > Collectibles), as it's likely to reach more interested users in that section than in here.
334  Economy / Reputation / Re: Gleb Gamow Account Was sold Proof on: June 15, 2018, 10:19:27 PM
lol its not solid proof . i also can make the same thing like that
you need more proof . i dont have problem with them but all proof you explain here its not worth .
But unlike you and me, hilariousandco is a golbal mod and you can report PMs to them,
so they have access to the actual PM (not just the screenshot), even between accounts they do not control.

Op sent me the PM so I can confirm that's real at least.
You can fake the screenshot, you cannot fake the testimony by hilarious.
335  Economy / Reputation / Re: Gleb Gamow Account Was sold Proof on: June 15, 2018, 09:11:59 PM
Thus I'd say it's reasonable to assume they are still in control of their account.
Maybe. Any ideas about how this fits in then?
My initial assumption was that they lost access to the account between the password reset and the password change (May 26th and June 4th),

May 26, 2018, 06:42:21 AM - Gleb Gamow - password reset via email
June 04, 2018, 01:44:22 AM - Gleb Gamow - password changed


As right after the reset a new address is staked and immediately after the change, Bruno makes a post about YuTü.Co.in
However, since they use the newly staked address in all applications for signature campaigns afterwards, there might be more to this.

Anyway, I'd like to see the PM in OP being verified as authentic by moderation/administration.
@hilarious, can you check this for us? I'd tend to side with you if the PM proofs to be legit.


Nevermind, confirmed already.

Cross posting from the thread back then (not sure why we're in a new one if there already is a thread about it).

Dudes, the account is still in my control. Taking a pic now that should suffice in proving that my dick is truly a whopping 6cm long.  Tongue Tongue Tongue

... Seriously, send me a hundred bucks so that I can buy a comb.  Tongue Tongue Tongue
Anybody in the US wanna call me at 702-981-5600?
Gleb verified himself after the PM in OP. Thus I'd say it's reasonable to assume they are still in control of their account.
337  Economy / Reputation / Re: Gleb Gamow Account Was sold Proof on: June 15, 2018, 08:47:05 PM
Quoting from seclog:

May 24, 2018, 08:19:02 PM - Gleb Gamow - password changed
May 24, 2018, 08:46:24 PM - Gleb Gamow - password changed
May 24, 2018, 10:40:27 PM - Gleb Gamow - password reset via email
May 26, 2018, 06:42:21 AM - Gleb Gamow - password reset via email
June 04, 2018, 01:44:22 AM - Gleb Gamow - password changed


And according to their trust page:

"This user's email address was changed recently."

Timestamp of the PM screenshot is right after the first password reset.

Copy & Past post:

It turns out the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency continues to decline to the lowest level this year. That's because the case of hacking during this week, which broke into coins worth about 37 million US dollars
The news was delivered by the South Korean cryptocurrency exchange bureau, Coinrail which also said hackers earn about 30 percent of their coin and token reserves.
To overcome this problem, Coinrail said if the coin exchange will be done offline while the remaining time and assets are transferred to cold storage (frozen).
And it affects the other cryptocurrency.
Earlier, in January, Japan's digital currency exchange bureau, Coincheck also reported the theft of XEM cryptocurrency worth 400 million US dollars

Combined from the following sources:

It's not a surprise seeing this trash ico's are using our forum and members to promote their campaigns.People do trust this campaigns and join there.
It's indeed no surprise as long as "managers" like ughh123 enable them, do no research before starting bounties for them,
and there are no consequences for either the scammers or the bounty "managers".



yes. okay Im going to do that, if the hdx token is transferable.
HDX website is already DEAD.
So you cannot pay the participants after all, thus this bounty campaign was a scam.

I sent (mistake) my btc to bitcoin-blender.com and I never received; is a scam site?
You should always verify you are on a correct domain before you send BTC anywhere.
In case of Blender, the domains are:

https://bitblender.io ~ Clearnet, purely informative, no BTC addresses shown there, no mixing happening.

http://bitblendervrfkzr.onion ~ The actual mixer, this is the only valid domain to mix coins via using Bitcoin Blender.



Yes, you have fallen for an impersonator site, a fake domain that is pretending to be Blender, but has nothing to do with the service.
You have been scammed.
