Topic: deliciousowl [Sr. Member] == gumcruise [Jr. Member] who made a false giveaway (Read 1740 times)

Somehow I have a feeling that this is the case. I don't think that they're related, but we definitely know that BitcoinStriker is an alt of a scammer now. This just keeps getting more and more interesting, doesn't it?

If - and that's still a huge IIIIFFF - BitcoinStriker and owlgummy are unrelated then it would be a hilarious irony that one scammer accidentally smoked another one out by paying 0.5 BTC. Dumb and dumberer.

Bitcoinstriker is now an alt (at least 1) of a known scammer, regardless. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12906106

I liked that one too, but opted for the image depicting a movie I don't remember ever seeing.

Doesn't remember making the thread? Makes sense with all the extra posts ya made bud...

gumcruise started this thread.
I proved that you and gumcruise are the same person.
Both of you told me in your own specail ways to get lost.
You, deliciousowl, paid the 0.5 BTC bounty offered up by gumcruise.
Now, you're claimin' that you don't remember making this thread.
To be fair, I honestly don't remember if I masturbated yesterday or the day before, but I'm pretty certain that I'm overdue given this stiff hard-on that all of a sudden materialized upon reading your post.

In all fairness there is absolutely 0 proof that BitcoinStriker is an alt of deliciousowl, and I don't really think that he is. Just seems like a random guy with a random life doing random things.

To be fair, I'm 'bout 80% certain he did just that: paid a random poster. I checked a many bitcoin wallet addresses, along with BS's posts, and I'd be hard-pressed to connect the two, albeit still not outside the realm of possibility.

What is near-100% fact is that Filip has lost it.

deliciousowl sent 0.5 BTC to BitcoinStriker's address:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12898529

Doesn't this show BitcoinStriker is owl's another alt? What other possible scenarios could justify sending 0.5 BTC to a random poster in the thread?

See my latest post over there. I'm lost for words.

Well he's been online today and I'm sure he has at least noticed this thread and is aware of what has happened, so judging by his failure to reply so far that doesn't seem very promising. That's a massive shame.

Edit: He's paid out to a person using his main account, although it would seem that he just randomly did it to get himself out of being backed into a corner. The negative rep will remain for a little bit.

I don't believe that's the intent with the exception that Filip should probably pay up to save face, coupled with a fairly simple apology, one of which would easily be accepted by the community given his demeanor on occasion due to life's adventure there in Slovakia. If it were any other, I'd say the path would be a tad more difficult to overcome.

We've all fucked up, and yes, even Phinn (that's me), but it's how the aftermath is handled that most the time dictates how bad the fallout is. The money aspect aside, again, Filip can easily get this resolved with very little effort as long as it comes across as earnest. I'm almost for certain that if done properly, the recent negative trusts may be removed, bearing in mind I'm not speaking for DC, but I would do my best to influence such course of action, again (again), predicated on Filip's actions.

I like this thread great drama so you going to make him pay up ! 

I think my twitter link is much better evidence that both are one and the same: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12889902

The affiliate link is the same (note: hocayoli): https://t.co/sSejuapxOk resolves to http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1449374042/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=1449374042&linkCode=as2&tag=hocayoli-20&linkId=YHU6JZVMUH4WVOCZ

Those are oddly similar times to be getting offline combined with the OP, don't you think?

It seems likely that someone went through and deleted their own posts. I volunteered with Counterparty full-time for just over 6 months and had a number of discussions on censorship with the founders. They're all against it and I'd be pretty surprised if they went through and deleted posts, especially old ones. It makes less and less and less sense for Counterparty personal to delete posts as they get older (the same is true for just about any thread). Newer posts are generally what's deleted by a thread owner (to control discussion) and older posts are generally deleted by the poeple who made them for one reason or another.

Was that earlier this year when Counterparty thread go few page shorter? Someone delete own posts or moderates delete something?

I'm such a loser! I guess I'll delete it myself, then. See how easy it is to acting professional oppose to the alternatives? To be clear, I admire Counterparty and have them at the top of the list for something I'm working on.

Later, bud.

I passed this on to Robby (Counterparty co-founder) and he mentioned that Filip is no longer doing support for Counterparty and hasn't for a while. I think they'll update the site to reflect this. He was never a spokesperson. Nothing ever gets deleted from the Counterparty thread, we're not here for censorship.

I'll admit to having you at the bottom (seriously, not top) of the list of sockpuppet candidates, but I will now take your name off said list (not published anywhere; only in my mind). Please let Adam know what's up so to get in front of this debacle, bud. Also, he has my permission to delete my post in the Counterparty thread.

As I've stated above, there's still time and a way to get this unfortunate episode behind all those concerned, even for Filip.

Later, bud, and thanks for your input.

So much for the dude who alluded to me being some sort of conspiracy nut. HAHAHA

I guess there wasn't much happening in Bratislava, Slovakia (or thereabouts), for Filip to opt to bring attention to his sockpuppetry, thus causing a stir in the Bitcoin community. Here's to hopin' that Counterparty will be able to ride out the ripple effect:

I'm a real person and my identity is known. Not affiliated with anything happening in this thread as was not even aware of it until I saw the link in the Counterparty thread.

This is really fucked up! Looks like Adam Krellenstein was well aware of the sockpuppetry going on during the time he was conditioning Patrick Byrne-cum-Overstock for a Counterparty relationship. It was paramount to hype and continue the dialog about Counterparty as much as possible via the myriad sockpuppets. I don't even wanna guess as to what else about Counterparty was or is contrived.

6 hours, 49 minutes and 40 seconds later, gumcruise posted his very first post in the Counterparty thread pretending to be a NOOB.

This doesn't look too good for Counterparty given that Filip is their spokesperson. I have strong reason to believe that there's at least three other sockpuppets in play here under the control of Filip pumping Counterparty.

This no looks good.

I'd say for Filip to get back on our good grace he simply apologize and pay out the ).5 BTC equally distributed to all those providing an answer (I'm not one of them) in his tread mentioned in the OP. Upon doing such, DC may consider retracting his two negative trusts. It's his call. (no HAHAHA)

Thanks to the one and only Phinn for bringing the proof up here.

Pretty standard troll account and thread, Jr. Member "gumcruise" wastes a bunch of people's time waving around a 0.5 BTC reward. Pretty clear looking at the replies to the threads and quotes.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-1-bitcoin-conspiracy-barn-1235516

Eventually he edits the OP and thread title to "The #1 Bitcoin Conspiracy Barn" making it pretty obvious he wasted everyone's time.

Actually, he seems to have tried to cheekily made a bit of extra commission too by using an amazon affiliate link in the book he linked to, which backfires.

For quick reference, an amazon affiliate link requires an affiliate tag (basically an ID) to credit. The amazon website states how this is shown as follows: "For example, you must include your Associates ID or “tag” (appearing as XXXXX-20, or such other format as we may designate) as a parameter in the URL of each link you place on your site to the Amazon Site.". Keyword is that it is called a "tag" and ends in -20.

On July 6, 2015 user "deliciousowl" made a post linking to a book on amazon which used tag=hocayoli-20 as the affiliate identifier.

In our false giveaway thread by gumcruise, the post linking to a book on amazon also uses tag=hocayoli-20. If you think it's a coincidence, try searching "hocayoli" or "hocayoli-20" on Google. It's most definitely the same affiliate.

"deliciousowl" also happened to post on the false giveaway thread in a trollish manner, though this doesn't prove anything on its own, rather seems like a strange coincidence.

More juice:

Turns out he paid the 0.5 BTC prize to BitcoinStriker who is a proven alt of the scammer "Tymer" and also an alt of "HueSinger".
