POSSIBLE SUSPICION

The same ANN is created twice in the last 50 hours.

OP : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=881377

Old ANN - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5251215.0 (Edited to ~~ now)

New ANN - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5251658.0

Hm, what's the basis for your suspicion, beside the fact that new ANN has been made and old one moved to archival? I am asking because those  threads have been made by HHampuz, one of the most reputable managers on the forum, so chances for malware in thread made by him are extremely low.

One suggestion: You don't have to copy the entire ANN when you think that something weird is going on. Just part of the thread with possible malware is enough, and make sure to archive it.

Hey! I am aware that the ANN is from a very reputable member but I don't understand whats the point in creating new ANNs every day? Does it not break any rules of Bitcointalk?
I added Possible because I don't have much experience on how these things are shared, this is my first time actually so I would like to apologise if I messed anything up. My sole intention is to help and keep bitcointalk a safe and healthy place. Thanks for understanding.

P.S.: Thanks for the suggestion, I will keep that in mind.

Suspicious ANN !

Thread : ✅[ANN] Millik coin 🔥 - SCRYPT, SHA256, X11 , MINEABLE , SCALABLE 🚀 New

I was just about to share that they finally updated their ANN with malware link, when i saw you updated it as well. That thread is still there, I hope it will be removed soon, before someone downloads it.

Yeah it pops as a virus, but it's a newer one, some detectors are still missing it.

This keeps going back to my post about not allowing locked threads in altcoin announcements. Would probably save a lot of grief. Although they could moderate it, that would require work.

Stay safe.

Hey! I am aware that the ANN is from a very reputable member but I don't understand whats the point in creating new ANNs every day? Does it not break any rules of Bitcointalk?

From what i can see, the old ANN has been moved to archival, after new one has been made. So it's not like someone is spamming forum with ANN threads. Users can make new ANN threads for various reasons.

I added Possible because I don't have much experience on how these things are shared, this is my first time actually so I would like to apologise if I messed anything up. My sole intention is to help and keep bitcointalk a safe and healthy place. Thanks for understanding.

No need to apologize, it's all good. After all, it has been your first report. When reporting, just see how others are doing it, especially @Lafu. Follow the format to some degree and you are good to go!

This keeps going back to my post about not allowing locked threads in altcoin announcements. Would probably save a lot of grief. Although they could moderate it, that would require work.

Yep, that's a good suggestion. Something like that would make  scamming attempts a little bit more time consuming for them, and probably safer for others that are not careful enough.

Thanks for being so supportive, really appreciate it.

You are welcome!
Everybody that helps to get the trash deleted and safe some users coins and money are welcome.
As others already has written you dont have to quote the whole ann, just the importanst things with an archived link.

[Rizzrack]

The original ANN had a typo and 2 comments mentioning it with HUGE ASS IMAGES AND RED ARROWS 
I would have also made a new thread in that situation

Thanks for keeping an eye out !

[Rikafip]

Another of those suspicious ANN threads where OP wakes up after big break (probably hacked/sold account), makes self-moderated ANN and adds malware link a bit later. Adding thread here so I can keep an eye on it and add malware once it added.

Ann   📌[ANN] XDigger Coin . New coin. X16S. PoW. Mineable. NO premine
Archive https://archive.fo/hz4Ja

Seems to be a "get your malware from telegram only" kind of ann.
I would suggest posting when you are sure as they probably read this thread also

Yep, we saw these before. Usually they are to lazy to go for this option, but sometime they put some effort, like now. They probably think that they will avoid getting topic deleted, if malware link is not shared directly on the forum.

Telegram channel: https://t.me/xdigger_coin

~~~~~

Looks like they use the keywords : New coin, Mineable, NO premine , New lately.

And yes the ANN looks suspicious and also the view looks similar with only 2 links to Telegram and Twitter !
Guess if looking for the pictures you will find something about and they just changed the Names and ticker for the coin.

I wonder how you guys find these scammers.. I mean, I want to help too.. but it seems there is now way how to do that. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.

[Lafu]

I wonder how you guys find these scammers.. I mean, I want to help too.. but it seems there is now way how to do that. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.

Try to use and work with the search function here on the Forum and also maybe Google.
Look for keywords , or search for the thread title if there is the same already.
Watch out when the thread was or is created , check also when the user has posted last time and if he woked up from inactivity.
Check Github links in the threads and when they was created.
And much more.

I mean its not that you just look at a post or thread and you know thats a fake ann or something , you have to do something for it.

Mediacoin

Mediacoin is a secure and decentralized file sharing network with its own crypto economy. The Network allows you to earn tokens by sharing files, publishing unique content: video, audio, games, pictures and other documents.

Website  / Youtube / Telegram

Download Mediacoin:

Windows 64bit / Windows 32bit

✅ What is Mediacoin?

This is an operating project that provides an opportunity to earn cryptocurrency on publishing and sharing media files. The Network is free of censorship and ads, it is fully decentralized. You can publish and download any content: new licensed films and games, 18+ videos, even software that is strictly controlled and removed from the Internet by its owners. At the moment the Network contains more than 300 thousand files, including the latest TV series, movies and music.

✅ Mediacoin Benefits

MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITY
The platform provides opportunities to earn by publishing exciting content, providing its resources, as well as inviting friends

NO CENSORSHIP
Peer to peer technology makes the application entirely decentralized and impossible for any regulator or provider to block it.

NO IN-APP ADVERTISEMENTS

FREE FOR ALL
You will get an absolutely free access to an enormous amount of digital content

SECURE&PRIVATE
The application does not require that users share their contact details, location information or IP addresses.

✅ Whom is Mediacoin targeted at?

Content Consumers
Get access to free content without censorship and ads

Authors
Publish unique content and earn tokens

Miners
Use your computer resources to mine tokens

✅ Exchange

MDC/BTC
MDC/USD
MDC/ETH

✅ FAQ

How does the network ensure privacy?
All published content is hosted on users’ machines. It is not subject to censorship and is completely anonymous. The network does not have any central nodes, so it can be blocked neither by a provider nor by any other regulator.

Why do I need the cryptocurrency?
A special internal cryptocurrency, Mediacoin (MDC), has been introduced to keep a balance between those who download content and those who share it. Participants share content in exchange for virtual money. The more content users share, the more MDC tokens they get in his/her account.

What content can I publish?
Lack of censorship and peer-to-peer technology allows users to publish any content. Users can give likes/dislikes, leave comments to content. A file rating is based on user ratings.

How does Mediacoin differ from file sharing networks and torrent trackers?
Most websites and social networks are profit-oriented. They use content of their members and make users view intrusive advertisements. Mediacoin is a non-commercial project, designed to fairly reward content authors and network users.
The platform benefits are as follows:
No ads and paid subscription
Full anonymity
The application cannot be blocked by the provider or the regulator
Reward for using PC and Internet resources

How can I earn Mediacoin?
The system rewards members for sharing files, publishing content and attracting new users with the internal digital currency, Mediacoin (MDC). The amount of the reward directly depends on the size of the file: the larger the file you share, the more tokens you receive.

Can I download content without registration?
In order to download a file you need to download the desktop software and set up . a cryptocurrency wallet. Just create a login and password. You are not required to enter any personal data.

Why do I not earn tokens?
Make sure that the content you publish is interesting to other users. Promote your channel, share links to files and playlists across social networks and resources where they can be of interest. Don’t try to get rewards by fraud. The Mediacoin system does not credit any rewards for fraud.

How many tokens will I earn after my file is downloaded?
Mediacoin uses Proof-of-Activity and Proof-of-Stake algorithms. The number of tokens to be credited for sharing one GB of traffic varies according to the current total user activity. The relevant amount of the tokens to be credited for 1 GB can be checked in Block Explorer (Average Rate Link!). In addition, the total amount of the reward for file sharing depends partially on the funds available on the peer’s account.

✅ Mission

Our mission is to create a user-friendly decentralized file sharing network free from intrusive ads and hard censorship. To make the data sharing process completely confidential and simplified.

Mediacoin offers authors opportunity to make money from their content without using embedded ads and other means of monetization. The platform allows getting a fair reward for users’ interest, unlike the proposals by modern monopolistic advertising systems.

Service developers decided to try a groundbreaking idea: to remove any middlemen, enabling consumers and authors to enter into direct interaction and make the content absolutely public and free from censorship.

Windows 64bit / Windows 32bit
