Just for the record, I was unable to recover any more BTC.  The following addresses of mine hold the secured BTC:

1BNY74WiVn66PQuQTXkzvRaHXnLMbQz9ww
1EeKfHRc6GTcc4Tv5tVGzWNHv4ERirsSk8
1Pw9CkBC6qSxwDgsPqx3kMmofWj8jLwLXH
18a1RoNu3WRneMimHEUYAB9FTmnhymagW1

I do not have time to work more on this tonight.  I'll post tomorrow when I figure out a good claim procedure.

Just for the record, I would like to give you props for your efforts. You are awesome.

Google his nick FooDSt4mP. Way too much information comes up on this guy.

Interesting, Lynzoy only has over 70 because she is just a speculator http://pastebin.com/WxkUM0fe

Jesus, I'm surprised people put up with Pastebin

Yeah, I thought that was interesting also.

The origin of the info seems to come from here: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/researchers-find-malware-rigged-with-bitcoin-miner/8934

Not related directly with this particular scam, I guess. But if could also be the first steps in information warfare to discredit BTC.


How the hell can you watch that shit?
What specific part of the video triggered your emotional reaction?
A reaction against encouraging anyone to watching a video by some ignorant fuck reading his screencapped emails “exposing” the “journalistic hitman” ex post facto is completely rational. There is nothing emotional about it.

Has anyone else received an email from "Bitcoin Mining Accelerator"? With the text as follows:

==

Hi there, we'd like to invite you to be a beta tester of our awesome new Bitcoin Mining Accelerator program called "Coin Miner".

We have been keeping it under wraps developing it for the past few months and are ready to get people to test it out.
Basically how it works is that it automatically safely software overclocks your GPU to a stable level for optimum mining performance.
This way you don't have to fiddle with BIOS overclocks, MSI Afterburner or any other overclocking software - this does it automatically on the fly.

We are currently achieving around a 23% increase in Mhash/s mining speed. Some users have seen even higher gains.

The program is in Beta right now so we are offering it for free to anyone that wants to try it out.
If you are interested, check out our site: (a link to a counter, with a bogus website)....

His name is Brett,

he is also linked to http://www.prankcallradio.net/

and he was implicated earlier in a bitcoin heist on OTC, but I wasn't involved so I can't vouch either way.

Just a note:
The website is almost textbook selling-crap-website, with the awards the seeming expertise and so on.

Typical example: Selling a get rich quick book.

Maybe run the addresses through this list that was scraped earlier today?
http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=24346.0

I wonder if unemployed still has the unfiltered list... (any address added to a sig after this was released can't be trusted)
Backed that up earlier and was even checking those first few addresses cd posted (obviously curious for myself and any other forum members, in a weird way, the list came at a convenient time lol)

The list is at http://pastehtml.com/view/ayrpygp5m.html

I don't wear a tin foil hat, but if this seems like he has an agenda so it seasy to believe something like this.

When refreshing the FTP directory periodically, three .dat files appeared.  I have downloaded them and removed them from the FTP server.  After starting up bitcoind with them I will report on any addresses they contain that have been seen in the block chain.  If they turn out to be your addresses, create a new wallet on a secure machine and spend all of your coins to one of its addresses ASAP.

EDIT: More keep popping up every so often.  I am downloading and deleting all that I find.

Dude, you are a goddamn rock star! Love to see this kind of crap foiled

lol, does someone have a screenshot from that website?

btw, this scam shows that the scammers are actually noobs. They might have done some nice site, I won't know that unless someone has a screen,  but WHO THE FUCK IS THAT STUPID to create a wallet stealer and then use a ftp account that is not write-only?

You know what, I smell something fishy here. This whole americanrevolution thing with the java exploit, associated with this professionally designed site seems like an outside organization to me targeting bitocoin using a libertarian site as camouflage. It does not seem to me like the profile of a corrupted independent techie inside the community. They were just too lousy on the programming side, and too good on the marketing side (in fact, better than any other bitcoin site).

To me it could be some top-down order, like: infiltrate this thing and start attacking them to break the trust. Its just another conspiracy theory, I know, but just made that association after watching this today: http://www.youtube.com/user/BitcoinChannel
This will be my only and last conspiracy speculation, btw.

I currently have 41.91003938 secured.  One of the wallets I checked had an email address as the label for a receiving address, so at least I have a lead on who owns them.

Time to commute home, it's 8:30 PM already.  I'll try to work through a lot more of these tonight.

That facebook page is fantastic. This quote, in particular, really tickled me.
Quote
f the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.

Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws. -Mayer Rothschild
Yeah, it might be hard for the banks to deprive people of their property after someone has already deprived them of their wallets. And I think you've taken that "give me control of a nation's money" bit way too seriously.
