Found this:

Vanity Generation - Up to 9 digits long!

Considering they don't have a referral program it's at least a bit strange that this guy has 2 links pointing to the scam site in his signature.

Take your own conclusions.

Scammer hunters please look into this.

Huh? http://bitcoinvanitygen.com/ and Bitcoinvanitygen.com is the same website. And it's a scam site as stated in this thread. Even if you find a site which do vanity address search for free, it cannot be trusted. The best and secure way to get a vanity address is to generate from your own uninfected computer.

Not necessary true if you use the split key generation feature

i dont get this story
some forum, some IP, some vanity adress. and no proofs on blockchain

Why would so many people suddenly start shouting scam?

Besides blockchain only proves that transactions were made not who ordered them or the owners of the wallets.

What we need to do is: Get the word out that this service is 100% Scam.

Easy money for them. They waited 2 months to take my btc , lucky not much!

Should be taken offline this website.

I did generate a few addresses using this service. However, I never used those addressees as I know they have my private key. I just use those service for fun. If I really want a vanity address, I will not ask a trusted user to generate for me. I will generate it myself. Also remember to use the original version of vanitygen - or maybe some popular one.

You can ask someone to generate it for you if you don't have the computing power to do it but ONLY do it with split key vanity generation that way you can get be sure that only you would know it's private key and the not the vanity address generator. I had couple of addresses made by someone through that but I lost em in a HD crash.
