Topic: Mt. Gox user details for sale - page 4. (Read 23916 times)

Like I said in another thread, the database dump of 500,000 verified customers who uploaded minimum 2 documents ( suppose the average size is 1MB ) would be of 1000 GB size, not 20 GB.

Seriously, does anyone believe that this kind of data is worth anywhere near 100 BTC?

This is a SCAM!

nanashi would not take a penny as he said on IRC and hes english is terrible and this is well written.

Mt. Gox database sale: steps to remove yourself from dump before sales.
    
Most around here know we are selling gox customer info. Many have contact us requesting to pay to have their data removed before we sell. We are doing this for a cost of 0.25 BTC per person removed. We have already sold and release 20% of data to 2 buyers, so if you are apart of that it's too late for you.
    
We are release the rest of this data to our buyers sometime this week, so after that happens it is too late for everyone who has not been removed already.
    
1) Email [...] with the email you used with mtgox.
2) I will check file already sold, if you are not part of that I will send you unique bitcoin address. If you don't get response it means your data has already been sold in first batch or we have finalized sale of all data.
3) After you have sent .25 bitcoin payment, email us again to inform us of this.
4) Thats all, we will delete your personal data and passport scan from all copies of database.
    
DO NOT email asking to do this for cheaper unless you are doing 10+ accounts at once. Also do not email us asking to confirm what information we have about you. If gox had it, we have it, and as you can read on boards we have confirmed possession of this dump for many people. We let you use our same email for this as all other gox hack communication so you know we are same people. Doing this things will cause us to ignore all further message from you.

Now, I live in the UK, and in law here the accused has the presumption of innocence until proved otherwise..

This is not the same as what he did. What he did is to allow people to use his service and deposit Bitcoin and fiat while knowing that he did not have all his customer's funds (despite publicly saying that he did all the way until the end).

Older than you apparently. Others will judge whether wiser or not.

Look, the point is, its a bit like blaming a home owner when there house is left unlocked and subsequently burgled. Just because they made it easier through some inaction, at the end of the day it is the perpetrator of the crime who is the real villain.

Okay, so Karpeles is an idiot, but he didn't force people to give them their bitcoin / fiat.  But you're going after the wrong man.  Don't get hung up on vengeance against the gun dealer, go after the man that pulled the trigger.

or are you delusional "it's not Karpeles fault" how old are you kid?

Shortly after I MtGox incident, I started getting a lot of phishing mails with fake "Bitstamp" and "BTC-e" messages. So obviously someone seems to have access to the very same email address I used on MtGox.

Did they really have 500k VERIFIED accounts?

Whoa.

It is not Karpeles fault that a criminal is trying to sell your data.  The perpetrators of crime are the criminals, and in this case MtGox & its customers are the victims.  In fact, if someone hadn't been defrauding them via the malleability exploit, we wouldn't be in this situation.

So, how about we start actually blaming this fiasco on the perpetrators rather than the victims.
