I noticed that you gave him a negative reputation for stealing physical bitcoin. How did the theft happen? I would like to know more so it can be exposed further.

I do not know the details, but the source/seller is a credible/trusted collector. If they share or post, I'll update you

User attempted to sell me the following 2013 Lealana BTC set. He named/dated the one picture, I tried my best to inspect it and it looks legit to me that he actually had these coins in hand. Assuming he stole them from someone else? That or my photoshop/AI detection skills have started slacking  Undecided

Maybe he used another person to manipulate it and put your name there, in order to generate trust. He asked me for photos of my 25 BTC Casascius, but then he never replied again, which seemed very strange to me, since when people ask about something they usually either reject or accept the offer.

Normally I would agree but he did it so surprisingly quick after just learning what to write, that it didn’t seem like there was enough time for him to have a third party do it but I suppose you never really know.

For future reference, here is the BTC address he requested payment to.

Interesting. Someone should probably contact Mrsats1987 if darkday bought them from him.

After the negative trust received from cygan (not related to a specific scam but collectible not pay) this user Mrsats1987 has "vanished" from forum
Last Active January 03, 2026, 07:47:43 PM
I have the suspect he will not come here again to answer ...

Anyway @OP has requested from me to buy some coin but he ask many times for "photo with name and time" .... Roll Eyes (the same coin was already traded here)
I don't know what he had to check with this photo Roll Eyes but yes definetely this one of the reason sometime people add "a reason" why they are sharing a screenshot...

mrsats1987 robbed another user in a bank - maybe mrsats1987 is Darkdays?

Bingo! Most likely that’s the case. It can’t be that he can automatically provide the photos so quickly to the user Rymaster, because clearly he is the same person as darkday… incredible.

Bingo no.. I was Mrsats I sold my account to a person I met on Reddit… the casascius collector dude he offered me $10,000 dollars including a few items I had posted for sale. I sent him that set of Lealanas I purchased from Mojo along with a few other coins I purchased on here. After I sold him the account and I noticed he robed a few people I decided not to join again but after seeing this and hearing this today I thought I’d chime in to see he record straight.

I can confirm that my account was compromised. My account has now been secured.

I was attempting to sell the attacker an unredeemed 1 BTC Casascius coin. He offered above market rates ~1.3 BTC. In the process he managed to infect my computer to some degree and gain access to my account. I am still unclear on the details, but I am gathering data on this.

I sent him extensive pictures of the coin, which I believe he may have used to attempt to scam others with after looking through the DMs he sent using my profile. He has since deleted the conversation but I took screenshots of certain parts on another phone.

But more than this, it appears he was also pulling a sort of confidence scam. After I refused to meet for fear of a wrench attack he switched strategy and asked me to provide temporary liquidity in exchange for high interest rates. Again, I refused so he said he would send me two high value coins to use as collateral (a big mistake on his part I believe).

Note the collateral got stopped at customs. He almost certainly sent an empty box.

If this man has indeed physically robbed people. I have extensive evidence that can be used to identify him.

I am also willing to reveal the IP login history on my account. I believe he did not use a VPN. He sent me a video which can be undeniably used to reveal his identity. The IP access location is identical to the shipment origin location from which he sent the "collateral".

From my information gathering I have the following:

(EDIT: I HAVE REMOVED THIS INFORMATION TO RESTRICT HIS ABILITY TO GENERATE AN ALIBI ETC. I HAVE SENT THE LIST TO BOTH MINERJONES AND DJJACKET)

What are the best practices for this?

Edit: From what I can see, I don't believe he managed to scam anyone yet. But in an abundance of caution, I've DMed everyone this account interacted with over the last week to warn them to cease further communications outside of Bitcointalk.
