Topic: Mt. Gox user details for sale - page 7. (Read 23960 times)
Haha ^
hey y'all. When I was getting into bitcoin I noticed that mtgox and all other exchanges wanted all that personal info. I said fuck no. no way in hell. To me, this was the antithesis of what bitcoin is supposed to stand for. So I spent the extra time, effort and travel to obtain bitcoin person to person, with no records. I've always been happy about that decision, but now I'm extra glad.
Keep in mind that coinbase and other exchanges also require personal info. If you have an account on any of those, I would recommend closing it immediately and requesting by phone, email and snail mail that they expunge all your personal data from their servers and provide you written confirmation that they have done so.
And next time, buy locally. Even if it means a little hassle.
oh, and one fun idea I have if there is a bitcoin atm in your area. Wear gloves and a mask when using the atm. :-)

This message was too old and has been purged
It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if this was Mark.
First the coins moving into the hot wallet, then - OH NO! - database leak!
Monday morning announcement: "Due to a security breach we must delay planned re-opening..."

no user database dumps have been included.
I think they are some sort of good guys
That's actually the only valueable data. Not givig that away for free doesn't necessarily make them good guys.I think they are some sort of good guys
This is too much for me! I just hope everyone who had a gox account is safe and will be safe!
And Hopefully those hackers will burn in hell if they sell private data!

It will still affect many!!! Imagine the volume of bitcoin from MTgox...
Well we will see. but I think this crypto currency thing start to be a mess in the azz...

Anyway, massive crime and fraud is traditionally how markets operate, so if this is a moment for cryptocoin, I doubt there is enough guts among BTC holders or LEO or BOTH to do anything about it. If they stay silent and ignore that carnage, they will have great vectors for further cointhefts. It's not a zero sum game yet, but this is 10% of coins lost into Gox hole, so, BTC can take a few more total disasters like this, probably, and still serve as the backbone of cryptocoin. The attractors to black markets and also nations, are quite impressive.
Notice that Euronote and Dollar are bloodlines for far far more black market $$$ than cryptocoin, so, this is kinda also about turf war, and in turf war, the innocent regular-people in the turf, are just customers, johns, dupes, etc. I mean in terms of how gangsters and politicians think.

It's been two days that this message has been around, probably a scammer I think.
End of BITCOIN world!
No its just a massive massive pain in the ass for gox victims. <---understatement.

got a reply from the hacker saying he's going to upload data
not to scare off anyone, if it appears that data is real I'll immediatly remove it
if anyone is actually purchasing the database you should think about handing it over to law enforcement.not to scare off anyone, if it appears that data is real I'll immediatly remove it
and btw, just a quick reminder that for all we know goblins_ could trick us into thinking he has part of the database so he can scam others trying to buy it from him. (just sayin')
EDIT:
That nickname looks like the Hungarian Nánási surname spelled with English letters (similarly how my nickname comes from the Hungarian forename János). I am sure it's just a coincidence though.
Since he used a mail account at freemail.hu that actually sounds reasonable.
End of BITCOIN world!
My advice for all who were involved in mtgox
change your ID/passport tomorrow!
It might cost you something but I think it's worth it!
P.S. if someone could scam this guy would be nice!

Yep its a start but I expect that only goes some of the way to sealing up the massive hole.
Also a good thing it will be to declare the identity theft so that the police and everyone can monitor when someone is trying to use on of those identities
post the hackers email address, this need to go to Interpol.
I don't want to encourage people to buy the databse, that's why I don't feel comfortable posting it. But it isn't too hard to find if you followed the posts about the gox leak. [...]

Although that company was babysat by Nazis, they might still do some good. Let's see if any police on Earth, A: Have tech skill (ANSWER: no.) or B: Have ethics to protect the innocents. I'm guessing they see kids as innocents, they are good at chasing after lost children, haha, though they fail in that black market as well.
Sad, not one decent policeman left on Earth who has the balls to do anything right, in the right moment. Sad day for Earthlings.

I came late to the MtGox party and fortunately did not lose a lot and my heartfelt feeling go out to those that did, This news is not good, so now my passport, my bank details and my home address is now in the hands of hackers and they are trying to sell that info. I'm fucking furious. Karpeles needs to pay for this big time. post the hackers email address, this need to go to Interpol.
