You _do_ realize, of course, that whomever generates that address for you
will know the private key and will therefore be able to spend any coins sent
to that address, right ?


lol! Looks like you should never get other people to generate your addresses  Grin

Normally I just use query on IRC to pass this information, using IRC over SSL. To be honest, I very much doubt that the forum administrators are going to steal a few BTC and risk jeopardising their positions on the forum or the forum's own reputation.

You need consider the attack vectors; on a system outside your control, anybody can be admin:

and your emails and probably most internet traffic are recorded forever by the US government, as well as email accounts that can be hacked:

Now make sure only two people can know the private key...

I would make a new address for the recipient. Send it directly to his email account after using 7zip with AES encryption to compress the text file containing the details, and a long password that is exchanged through a different medium than email. Many can potentially read forum private messages and even email, you need to know that nobody but you and adamas can possibly have the private key.

I'm far more concerned that somebody gets ahold of Adamas's password and looks through his PMs, which is why I told him to delete it once he's successfully imported the private key.

Confirming that I've received the 1BTC from Adamas.

I sent you a private key for the address 1Adamas1Pt9dDHqUhGmL4ja4UPJYh3NrUG, please import the private key and then send 1 BTC to the address in my signature.

I have deleted my whole outbox and closed the terminal which had the private key in, and replaced it on my clipboard, so I have no further access to it. It's up to you whether to trust me on that.

You must delete the message I sent you, because if somebody gains access to your forum account they will be able to import your private key and gain access to the BTC held by that address.

He could use https://vanitypooltest.appspot.com/
But it still needs to get out of beta. I doubt someone will do the job for him just to get paid with testnet coins lol
