Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Just tried typing [empty string] and empty string into brainwallet.org and the compressed & uncompressed private keys don't bring up 1HZwkjkeaoZfTSaJxDw6aKkxp45agDiEzN?

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

the interesting part is that 3 bots already try to spend the coins (1 sec after receiving)

On Freenode #bitcoin the channel topic includes "The brainwallet.org guy tries to crack your keys"

Wouldn't be surprised if he made that address the default just to sweep it. If I ran brainwallet.org and knew how, I would code it so there was no private key by default, it would only generate one after actual text was entered.

Then it already comes with pre-loaded keys in case you do a mistake and don't enter a receiving address??

Weird, and almost scammy
