I have a friend who almost killed himself loosing all the money, he and his wife had. She is sick with multiple sclerosis and they're homeless now since bank shortsaled their house and only money they've had was what left from that sale. The amount was 45.49180000 of BTC sent to 15rxtbdigBTBkRbKLKd1pqomBoey927vX address. I'm new and don't know if there is any way to help him but just wanted to warn good people about what's going on. Bitcointalk accounts are also being hacked so be careful and protect yourself!

Can you explain how the 206 BTC that was also sent in the transaction was not stolen? Your friend must be confused. I doubt that any money was really stolen.
I agree. I wonder if the poster's IP is from Nigeria...

You cant really do anything for stolen Bitcoin. Sorry, better have firewalls and longer password next time..

Hello and thank You for reply! He is confused and he still taking some nasty medications for his bad heart condition. 206 BTC showed spent the same day of the transactions and his 45.49 appeared as spent only recently. It was green "unspent" until now. This is the link from block chain: http://blockchain.info/tx/2316297e9ad4e0919b5f014bcb20c9e9d6cdf77a518322a0d644c07f640b6f5cHe has a proof since he sent coins to the address from his campbx account. Please help, they're very good people.

regardless of anything else, there's nothing you can really do, except maybe watch the coins move around the internet....

Move on from the lost, you should have had a better password, and not used an exchange as a wallet.

Ok, so its more of a scam. I believe some Bitcointalk folk is rich enough to donate some money to your friend. Make a new topic showing proof and saying how he got scam and etc.

"US can pretty much extradite anyone from most countries in the world for Mail & Wire Fraud http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_fraud" Hello Gator-hex and thank you for the info! Do you know more detail about it, where to report this theft? Also, please ignore a few post above about campbx password hack since it's false. Money to campbx was transferred from Dwolla. Money to Dwolla has been transferred from Bank of America account, and he did send BTC himself, so no password has been compromised except his bitcointalk member login.

You have not been very clear about how the bitcoins were stolen. More details might help recover the bitcoins, especially details about where they stored when they were stolen.

There are things to consider..... do we know the account was brute-forced? Or is it possible this was done by someone who had access to a computer that in some way housed the password (in a text file, saved in-browser, etc)?

Thank you so much all you guys trying to help! Really appreciate that! I'll try to file a Complaint with the IC3. This makes the most sense to me. As soon as they'll reply, I'll let you know what's up on this topic. What I'am 100% sure about is that this "person/thief" lives here @ bitcointalk.org My limited time and knowledge tracing someone, allows me to get only this far: This is thief's ip address. The rest is much more complicated... Also wanted to let this "person/thief" know that,- if u consider yourself a hacker? - u are Not! We'll gain some learning experience trying to catch u. Real hackers don't steal!
