What filenames and locations would malware check? As in a good list of the most popular files used.

I thought about just creating a file named bitcoin.txt on my desktop, put a public & private address into it and send a couple dollars worth of bitcoin to it. Then create a small script to have my computer check that address when I turn it on.

It would be cool to create a few other target files that could also contain the same address & private key.

You load the wallet with a small amount of money that you can afford to lose (e.g. $10).

In two years this amount of bitcoin will be worth $1000.  Honeypots are a good idea, but you need to continually reassess how much you are keeping in yours.

Be cautious, but all he can take is the bait money and not even that if you make your own wallet. I'm all for being paranoid but this seems legit. He just can't steal from you.

What I find true of people who are too cautious, is they end up getting scammed much bigger. Eg. Pirate, gox, etc.

Your going to have to deal with scpetics after all the scams bitcoin is witnessing

You'll have to do more to gain trust

I won't be using your service until its proven to be trustworthy

Forum post from newbie account won't do it, no thanks . I will assume its a scam.

Just the way it has become

I'm not sure but I think all you can do here is say "email/sms me when money got moven out of bitcoin address x". So how is this a wallet stealer? Sounds like cool service.

Everyone who uses bitcoin should follow some basic security measures like disabling JavaScript by default (NoScript for FF) and obviously disable Flash/Java/etc. So I do recommend to only open links on bitcointalk if you have basic security measures like that. I always recommend reading this for a start: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Wallet_Security_Dos_and_Don%27ts_(Windows)

Guys don't click, its a wallet stealer

Somehow I figured that even before I opened the thread.  Still, that means his service does exactly what he claims...
