Beware if you recieve the following private message, It's a blatant SCAM:

Quote
You have just been sent a personal message by BitcoinDoubleSpender on Bitcoin Forum.

IMPORTANT: Remember, this is just a notification. Please do not reply to this email.

The message they sent you was:

For those of you that are aware of the digital currency Bitcoin: There has been a discovery of a exploit that utilizes the worlds first Quantum computer. This exploit is not illegal as no Governent controls the bitcoin network, nor backs it. The Bitcoin network runs a series of algorythms at extremely fast speeds, in comparison to classical computers, which the network runs on. This happens for BOTH receiver and sender to certain bitcoin rcv address programmed into the algorythm.

In other words while the payment is in idle circulation it can be spent twice, (this is the time it takes for the Bitcoin network to catch up, quantum computing can run at full speed for only so long.)

Do NOT try to spend more then twice with same addresses, I will not process orders and I will send the Bitcoins back because Bitcoin Network will catch on.


This is working as of January 04 2013 its no telling when this exploit may be fixed.
I take 50% of profits off double payments, so really your receiving 150% of your payment. for example 10 bitcoins = you get 15 back.
I paid over 117,000$ for the D-Wave F600 don't complain about my fee's. I am looking for many users in a short period to make most profit before exploit is found. If you like the service please tell as many people as you can.

HOW TO USE:
You need to make two addresses. You can go to the website http://blockchain.info/ and make multiple addresses. After you have made two addresses send email with the address to BitcoinDoubleSpender@yahoo.com and send the bitcoins to --> 1YauBXqmy8fSnuMV444Py9g1zN5oFk6w7<--
The algorithm will only work with WHOLE numbers at this point . So the minimum amount you can double is: 1 bitcoin (not .1 or .01) You can send 1 or 10 or 32 but NOT 1.23 or 10.50!! So ONLY whole amounts -- no cents.
You can use as many times as you wish for any whole amount. I have experienced one issue with a client using a wallet version 0.51, so make sure your wallet is updated. This will not be a problem if Blockchain.info is used.
Payment will on average be doubled within 5-20 minutes, and will never take longer then 1 hour after order. Understand that each order has to be processed manually do NOT complain if it takes longer then 20 minutes. Each time you double spend you must use two new addresses, a new sender and receiver address. This is so Bitcoin network does not catch on. Also, I predict once this exploit is found and used by others with access to quantum computing the price will plumit to an all time low. Bitcoin as a monetary system is doomed to fail. SELL YOUR BITCOINS AS SOON AS YOU CAN.

Why is this is general discussion?

Someone is trying to scam forum users via private messaging and the OP has kindly started a thread to point out that it is an obvious scam (which might be a necessary service considering the history around here).

What's the problem? In which sub-forum do you feel this thread belongs?

This belongs in scam accusations, if anywhere at all. The user was banned no reason to keep posting his scam.

Because i don't see a 'Scam Alerts' board, hence it's in the 'General Discussion' board, which is also at the top of the forum, so likely to warn more people where as the 'Other' board is right down the bottom and less likely to be noticed.
Do you have a better suggestion or are you just bumping your post count?  Huh

Notice how the scammer is banned, meaning admins already know of the scammer and he is dealt with. Deeming this thread useless

Because i just emailed the admin. You seriously need to get a life  Huh

You may know it's a scam, i may know it's a scam, others may not, so bear that in mind before jumping on your high horse.

He got banned as spam by me. I didn't know he could still send PM's though...

Note that such scams will surface on the coming days. I suspect it's someone bitter at this forum behind this...

This is essentially the same scam which is being promoted on Craigslist, so a heap of people are going to try pulling it in different places including here.  Funny that he picked a username which should scream "scam", though.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

Yeah, at first when I opened this thread (before I read it), I was wondering why he would send any money to "BitcoinDoubleSpender".

I just got the exact same message from Robert Fienstien. I had seen him in the newbie forum within the past couple hours posting basic "hello" messages.

Looks like he changed the Bitcoin address from 1YauBXqmy8fSnuMV444Py9g1zN5oFk6w7 to 1KU3LK7eTYJkc2Er5t91krGUGKmgK1QXud.

He probably wants to setup someone else(  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=131107.msg1415478#msg1415478 ) since he only received 1 satoshi at his original address.

If you read his message backwards, I'm fairly certain you'll find the phrase "YOU WILL ALL BE MY SLAVES AND LICK MY ASS FOR A MILLION DOLLARS."
