Lol...yes BUBBA... They can track the IP address too. FBI was able to go to the darknet and track the impossible. He will get caught for sure

The fact that he sent it all to one address is dumb right?  Should that not make it easier for the FBI to track? My guess however would be that this dick-wad is smart enough to use a mixer and what not. I hope he gets to meet Bubba in prison.

edit -I remember seeing this on ebay over and over too.  I bet I might own some actually (bought indirectly in MJ's xmas satoshi pack..maybe).

Very well put bro! They will get whats coming to them. BTC can be traced..they gotta be dumb not to realize that.

Yes, we all should have known better but that doesn't excuse what was done.  I myself lost $80.00 which I too put on the card more as a test.  I just feel so bad for all of the people that really put a lot more trust into these crooks and put their life savings on the cards.  I see some transactions were several Bitcoins per card.  I myself informed the FBI and I was told that others have contacted the FTC, the local authorities in Elk Grove, as well as other authorities.  I look at this as a hard lesson learned for myself and will hopefully learn through this experience what to do in the future if something similar happens.  I wish I wouldn't have waited a few days to write the FBI.  I found out about the theft the very next morning and their eBay store was still active as well as their local internet site WWW.Cryptopaperwallets.com in Elk Grove, Ca.  There has to be a way to catch up to these low-lifes.  Of what I have read and about the blockchain and what little I do know about IP addresses and websites as well as having an actual store on eBay and an account registered with PayPal, there has to be a way for the authorities to catch up to these guys.  I hope more victims read about this on here or that eBay will pass the customer information on to the authorities so that they can get as many witnesses together as possible.  I think this wasn't thought out as well as some hacker hacking an actual exchange somewhere in China.  There are just too many footprints for this thief to get away with this.  And one last thing, even though we were a bit "careless" by trusting a third-party seller of a paper wallet, please don't be so hard on the other victims.  Like I said, some of them just lost their lifetime savings and I'm sure they could use some encouragement rather than insults.  We're all here to learn from each other's mistakes in hopes to not make them ourselves.  That's just my 0.000000002 Satoshi's worth......

   My friends..you are both right!

   I had him make me custom total annihilation plastic wallets and sprinkled with a minute amount of BTC just for the fun of it.

   And yes, was very well aware they would or could be stolen.SO the fault lays with me.

   I would never trust any serious amount of BTC with anyone unless I created the paper wallet myself.

   But it is what it is. The thief scammed people out of 7.7 BTC and probably alot of alt coins since he also sodl wallets for them too.

   

The server of that site isn't responding, so they are gone for good.

Thankfully it was only a small amount that you put into this, and not a huge amount that some other people put into it. The scammer's got around 7.7+ BTC in that wallet received in scammed funds, and everything has already been emptied into other wallets.

And that's not to count the profit that he made by selling these paper wallets to people both on his site and also on ebay.

You should never let anyone else know about your private key, period. If you want a vanity address generated by someone else, you need to use split key generation, no matter how trusted the other party seems to be.

Wait... you bought a pre-made paper wallet that someone else had the private key for... And now you're surprised that your bitcoins are gone?

Why on earth would you put any coins into an address where you do not have exclusive knowledge of the private key?

I'm surprised it took the guy 8 months to take them... he must have been waiting for the "big score"... ie. a decent amount of coins to get loaded up before taking them all.

Sure..I will reach out to you

Man, I'm so glad that I found this post.  I too fell victim to this crook.  I was wondering if you could contact me so I could share what actions I've taken so far and to see if there is any more that we should do.  Fortunately i only lost $80.00, but like you pointed out; He stole over $70,000.00  so far and that is just off of the eBay customers.  Who knows how many others he got through his website which also just shut down.  Please PM me and I'll send you my number or email.  Thank you again for posting this.  Everyone needs to know!!!!

This company or person sold crypto plastic wallets on ebay.

I bought some custom made wallets from them on Ebay...loaded two with $40 in Bitcoin back in July 2017.



Last week both wallets were swept or breached! Thanks to my bitcoin address tracker I was alerted right away!

The user is no longer a registered user on EBAY.

His website looks like it has been taken down as well!

https://www.cryptopaperwallets.com/

AS of today, over 7.7 BTC have been sent to the same address from which mine was stolen and sent to as per following

https://blockchain.info/address/1Nu95AhzqXC8tqZKjojSkqGG2w951ZZQhA

And that is only in BTC..I can imagine other alt crypto that probably was stolen as well!

I am sure many BTC newbies who loaded these wallets are not even aware their BTC is gone!

Other people whom have been breached have contacted the appropriate authorities!

If you know anyone who has purchased these wallets, then let them know NOT to load them.

And if they have to check their BTC. I am quite sure it is gone!
