UPDATE: never mind... i found it weird that the transactions weren't visible on blockchain.info (i still do) but they just appeared.
---
I've got a few transactions coming in that say confirmed: 0 and the TXID is not found when doing a lookup on blockchain.info
I got the advice that I should do getrawtransaction on it, but lack the knowledge to make anything from the output.
Just a few minutes ago someone came to OTC and complained about the exact same problem.
The logical explanation would be that someone is creating fake transactions by directly peering with the BTC server.
I don't think that's the case because there are different receiving addresses that belong to different users and one of them even contacted me (support) asking if it's normal for a payment to be unconfirmed for over 24 hours.
When loading the receiving address on blockchain.info it doesn't show the transaction at all.
Any ideas? For now it just looks like regular people sending regular coins that never arrive and they can't spend them. Kind of scary
Here's my example trx.
listtransactions:

}
UPDATE: yes, yes I see. Confirmations: 2. This transaction was invisible yesterday on blockchain.info.
Here's mastertheknife's example trx that he has the same issue with:
gettransaction 5b47050c1adc70c78978e24a58759465cf6b41ea80e6242e5aba9844316faed9
