User "serenawild" spamming his fake BTC transaction accelerator

[TryNinja]

The account serenawild was registered 1 hour ago and already has 3 posts promoting his accelerator. The problem is that this website is probably fake.

What happened:
Newbie account created 1 hour ago, only to spam his fake accelerator as an attempt to steal users.

His fake website: http://btcaccelerator.online
Archive version of his fake website: https://web.archive.org/web/20170819031444/http://btcaccelerator.online/

Why do I think the website is fake:

1. You can put whatever you want in the "bitcoin transaction ID" field and it will show up as "The transaction number X is NOT confirmed", even if the transaction you submit is already confirmed. You can even put a single space or just visit the page http://btcaccelerator.online/transaction.php and it will work.

2. In addition to accepting any text in the "bitcoin transaction ID" field, they use the same address for anything you input. Which is the address "1NFoFAGNQmYUNHzHimADR2b7CzK4Gd8J7N". I wonder how would they know who paid for which transaction acceleration...

3. The user has 3 posts, and all of them are him spamming his fake website across the forum in threads related to the acceleration of transactions.

4. The user copied the FAQ above the ViaBTC accelerator (https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/) and posted in his website's frontpage. You can even see on the "How does BTCAccelerator.online work?" part that is written "ViaBTC pool and cloud mining contract customers will enjoy chances for an upgraded “Customer-Only” accelerator service [...]"

5. Website registered yesterday according to https://who.is/whois/btcaccelerator.online

What's the goal here? It's clearly just a fake website but are they trying to phish something? Oh no, they know my IP address and my bitcoin txid. Should I expect them knocking down my door tomorrow?

His "service" is not free. He is selling his acceleration service for Bitcoins. People may fall for this since there was a increase of stuck transactions waiting for confirmation.

The account should be tagged. It's without doubt a scammer's account. And the accelerator is definitely fake. It's sole purpose is to rake in bitcoin payments from desperate members here who have stuck transactions.

And that one same address for payments is a dead giveaway of this fraud. There is no way he can identify or correlate transactions without any identifier or descriptor clearly referencing the transaction to be accelerated.

So they copied the FAQs. Plagiarism is fraud and when someone plagiarizes he is a fraudster.

And finally, your whois query confirms it all. Definitely a scammer.

I just tried this out, and surely enough just as tryninja said you can put any value in the txid field and it'll just automatically give you an address to pay to. This is clearly a scam to me since he definitely does not own a pool that is able to actually do this.

The transaction number
3
is NOT confirmed.

BTCAccelerator.online can have this transaction confirmed in no more than 1 hour.

Fee for this transaction: BTC 0.001

Please send 0.001 BTC to 1NFoFAGNQmYUNHzHimADR2b7CzK4Gd8J7N and we get your transaction expedited and confirmed.

It is clear to me that even though this person has not explicitly stated that he is the admin of the site, he probably owns it or is hired to promote the site.

Completely untrustworthy behaviour, avoid the site at all costs.

Certainly.They would knock on your door for bitcoin theft."Hand Over those private keys and no-one gets hurt." Lmao

The guy who developed the website,that idiot is an idiot.I just entered some random integers and look what the website has for me,
(the transaction number lol)

This is an obvious scam. I'm not sure why he spent money and time in domain and development of the site(even though it is simple as hell), because it is obvious that no one is going to fall for it. And he's asking for quite a low amount as well.

Simple rule: Do not trust anybody claiming that they can accelerate your transaction when they do not have proof that they own a crap ton of miners or is the owner of a certain pool with good amounts of hashrates.

It would be pretty funny if someone sent the 0.001 BTC with 0 transaction fees, and let them do their "acceleration"

[aTriz]

LOL

You can put anything in the text and it just works. Pretty sure "good scam" isn't a proper transaction id, well that scam was easily busted.



Pretty sure there is no way for someone to accelerate a transaction unless they own half of all miners or something. Plus no one would charge 0.001 for a transaction accelerator anyway.

Hahahahahaha oh my God that's hilarious. It's the new bitcoin doubler folks! Only this one doesn't seem to have as many shills and newbie accounts saying it worked for them.

Hmm, weird. I used btcaccelerator website and it worked for me. My transaction was stuck for 2 days and an hour after I put my transaction ID in that btcaccelerator website it went through. Maybe it was good timing but I am pretty sure they pushed it through!

Maybe you should read my thread again.

There is no way the owner of the website can know who paid for which transaction. Every acceleration request shows the same address (that sadly already received 4 payments of 0.001BTC).

It's just a coincidence that your transaction got confirmed after requesting a acceleration. Try to input the same tx in the same page and it will show "-your TX- is not confirmed! Send 0.001 to this address bla bla bla"

I wonder where planet you came from, the registered date of you and the owner of this fake accelerator is only hour in between and now you're also go here to support this site for good. So a high chance that you're one of his alts.

And you are also promoting some phishing links of Dmarket.io, base on your post its dmarket.tech archive.is link (http://archive.is/XdRwb).
