BitcoinExpert, do you know if the account 'Niktitan132' was bought of another forum user or if the original owner of the account is the scammer? I have the full personal details of the original account owner but I am not disclosing them until I'm sure he's the scammer.
I was the #1 original owner of niktitan132 account.Account was sold a long time ago and the Escrow was Monbux.
The account was sold on 2015-06-25..and after that I had no access to that account. https://blockchain.info/tx/4f9525fa9fd8d34e28b0577dedb03825ebbc715e6a20ff859a21cd5ed21161d4
I still can sign the message with the BTC address 1MY8JmG3Jtpx15uk28MJmwp1Ju8JNRfvPP which can be found in https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/niktitan132-pgp-key-970876
Too bad you weren't arround when the ICO started, but for investors a lesson we should ask for a signed message to verify the OP was the original owner or not. Thanks for posting.
I wasn't very active on the forum after I sold the account,so I didn't seen it.
I'm going to sign the message in few minutes.I need to open one of my old wallets.

Also TheNewAnon135246 ,if I remember correctly I bought from you a Galaxy S5 S view cover? Correct?
Where is bitcoinexpert? Where is the thing going on?
This is really funny, using a photoshop photo to make people trusting the site and the amount is so huge, lol, great find on that 2 picture, can't stop laughing now 
Is there any BTC rewards for the person which will get his real name and surname ?
That's some good sleuthing.
I wouldn't expect someone who was so good at pulling a con like this to be doxed so easily,
but I guess anyone can be careless and leave footprints on the web.
AWS SES is "Simple Email Service"?
I'm guessing people buy and sell these accounts for email spam campaigns.

How many bitcoins is he selling?
He posted this address HERE : 1Ey2LDW1RsdoAuapNvvUVBPJZC62SvMsbE
That address also leads to THIS account, named 'omodz'. Omodz has posted in the Indonesian Section and he has also mentioned his Skype name: hafidz_aa15.
I searched his Skype name on Google and ran into his account on TheBot.net. His profile page shows his website http://hafidzaa.com/. The website is down but I used web.archive.org to get a cached version of his website. The front page shows his full name, Hafidz Akbari. I searched that name on Facebook and ran into this page: https://www.facebook.com/omodz
Omodz posted a loan request using the address 14tcyDnR55hVypzC64RiTU1y7YNcYg9CTk. That address leads to the account PremiumAccountSeller
His post history on TheBot.net (http://thebot.net/members/omodz.133953/) shows that he is trying to sell large amounts of bitcoin for USD since July.

I've spoken with the previous owner of the Niktitan132 account. The account was purchased by this user: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/nichlahghe5-8925
Wow this is actually quite impressive.
A website and a photoshopped picture earned 300 Bitcoins?
No wonder people are pulling these type of cons.

what a shame , why the community DT member still haven't put their red scar on the Scammer's profile?
I believe thats because a lot of people have ICO's and people claiming scams. And they don't want to just ruin the reputation because of a thread. Or because some of them have to read the thread at first.
Crypto evil is altcoin scam buster, but other dt guys don't cares alt scam because they hate alts
... or they had enough with the people's stupidity and hypocrisy. Most of the people does not care if something is a scam, as long as they take their $5 profits. They only scream "SCAAAM", when their personal "wealth" is affected.

Never heard of them, but I've noticed that there are multiple threads were people are accusing declouds in scam:

The full explanation from me
I would like to tell you exactly how it all started and what has been done so far. Having participated in several ICO projects as investor, I gained knowledge on how to run an ICO project correctly. Then I decided to provide this knowledge in new projects as Independent Advisor. I sent offers to some new projects and one of them was deCLOUDs. I had made two different offers, one was only for Advisor and the other for Advisor and help with Marketing. He accepted the second offer and agreed to 5% of the funds raised and 500k declouds tokens.
We had never talked about Escrow. After some days he was looking for Escrows. He couldn't find, so I volunteered to become myself, more for being a degree more confident that they will not make some fraud, because I would have in my possession one key. In simple words I wanted to protect myself and investors. As I said before my only mistake is that I showed more confidence than i should, and not insisted on certain things, such as make video call and see him and 3rd escrow too.
The conclusion is that I have no involvement in all this. I am a victim too. An investor should do its own investigation before put money somewhere. I never paid for my work, because the agreement was to be paid at the end of ICO. Of course I invested too 0.25 BTC, and like everyone else I lost them.
I apologize again for my naivety in this case, but i want you to understand that i'm not responsible for all this and please don't blame me. We all know that the crypto industry has big risks, i have lost many thousand $ in trading, investments, scams and i know the risks i take. When we invest somewhere we need to be ready to lose this investment.
I am a honest man, who loves cryptos and support decentralization. You can see that i m still here answering questions and trying to help as much i can because i m clear and i have not to afraid anything.
I hope to meet you, and through this whole situation to get wiser and not make the same mistakes again.
Thank you!
300 btc, damn serious fraud, and you are also victim because 5% of 300 btc is 15 btc. You waste time on it..

People are getting e-mails that they should invest more in this scam.
Shit load man! at the first instance i thought that the image was original but after scrolling down i found the truth. Shame on such people who fake stuffs.

This is getting more hilarious by the minute.
Obviously photoshopped. It doesn't even take a forensic analysis or an image search to see that, the photos are obviously shopped from the way that people are (not) looking at each other.
The second photo was taken from here: http://aktion-pro-aktie.de/deutschlands-groesste-direktbankenstudie/ then shopped the "dev" with his mic on it. Good job.
