I assure you, I'm capable of handling my job as congressman. However, I can't say for certain if this cock that has been attached to me my whole life is mine or not.

Would anyone like to come forward as being scammed by OP?
So far it looks like the only victims here are the clients of a certain New York based social media consultant.

While thinking about whether this guy may or may not have hatched a scheme to steal people coins it made me wonder something.
At this point in the game when people do transactions, at what point does the sender accept some responsibility in ensuring(by asking or otherwise) that the receiver has taken proper measures to secure his/her Bitcoins(wallet.dat) on the other end?
Just throwin it out there.

At no point. When I hand over cash to the corner store, it's not my fault someone knocks it over after I walk out. |

If you didn't receive the goods you just handed your cash over for you'd be damn pissed pissed if the goods and the cash were gone soon after. And you'd feel a damn retard if the store was in the middle of Compton and had no security of bars on the windows to protect it.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so take the blinders off buddy.

Since many people are scared of Bitcoin as it is based on the very technical nature of it, I hope these recent attacks don't scare too many people off. For those that stay, Bitcoin security is going to be huge in the Bitcoin market.

I have permanently saved his post where he shows that he owns the address I specified. Feel free to use this in your lawsuit: http://www.webcitation.org/5zeCk8VX1 |

Caveat Emptor ie: Don't go into the store in Compton with no bars. This is why they invented Clearcoin. |

Thank you. I will be pursuing this to the fullest extent possible. Second time someone has tried to scam me my bitcoins and not put out a card. First it was Why, now him. Both seemed reputable. Stupid I was. |

Clearcoin doesn't solve anything. Both buyers and sellers can scam the other using Clearcoin. |

1) Yes, that's a Parody. Imperi's a mildly amusing troll.
2) Clearcoin is an escrow house. If you're that paranoid, don't use an automated one.
