This post is just to inform the community about a situation that occurred after I bought Lealana coins. I ordered some coins a few months back, after checking the funding once I received my coins (funding released via escrow), I saw that one coin was double funded. It turns out that the coin had a duplicate address, as well as a duplicate private key. This was confirmed by smoothie. A large portion of my order was duplicate coins, but only one had a double fund. I received a refund for my order and sent back all of my coins ordered. The coins were sent back for smoothie to destroy the duplicate keys, as requested. As informed by smoothie, this was an isolated incident and after destroying the duplicate coins, there are no further duplicates.
I had asked smoothie to make some sort of public announcement about this, but he had mentioned that it would open up a a new form of attack to his business by having people falsely claim that they also have duplicate coins. (Please do correct me if I am wrong in describing the new possible attack, I can't fully recall all of those details)
This isn't a flame or attack on smoothie and/or lealana, nor is it a rant thread. I felt that this was an important event to make public, even if it was just an isolated incident. I don't want to be held liable/accountable about knowing this information if a similar event occurred with other lealana coins.
