Inspired by my last tentative here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=104108.msg1140185#msg1140185

Where not one clicked on the dear ads, here is version 2.

http://tny.im/gF

After payment of 0.01BTC you will get access to an Instawallet address with a stunning 0.1BTC provided you find the missing character.
There is one character missing at the beginning highlighted by the *.

www.instawallet.org/w/*somethingrandom

where * is the character to find.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I'm amazed at how the OP followed my suggestion on the other thread and how he managed to set this up without my help. I guess my documentation on tny.im's 'internet toll' service is great Smiley

People must pay 0.01 BTC to access the wallet address. Basically, if the first person to pay gets access to the wallet and the coins are confirmed, then the OP would have earned 0.01 BTC and given away 0.1.

However, if people access the link while the transaction at Instawallet is still unconfirmed, it may take several users to access the link before a lucky user refreshes the page in the right time and sends the coins.

It's a bit like a lottery where you pay 0.01 BTC and have a possibility of earning 0.1 BTC (if nobody came to the wallet before you).

I'm obviously out of this game because I know the link to the wallet (admin superpowers...) - obviously I won't give it out to anyone. I can say, though, that nobody visited the wallet yet (see http://tny.im/gF+ ).

If you wonder: the deposits done to the addresses displayed are first sent to the tny.im wallet and then sent manually to the OP (all at once). Feel free to open an accusation thread in the scammers forum if I don't pay Wink

When you pay the 0.01 BTC you get access to the incomplete link. You can then keep on trying characters like on the other thread.
You can even share the incomplete link here or anywhere if you really want to, because I still haven't found a way to protect the long link from being shared by people who paid for access to it (read: it's impossible to do that).

Funds no longer there and I got whopping 1 hit.
So no need to pay anymore as chances are nill..

I guess that was to be expected that the first one will eventually find it.

I'll await the funds;
