Not really worried about helping myself.  Sad to see people abuse the trust system just because someone has been posting, regardless of the content of the posts.  You should just let the mods do their jobs
Oh the juicy irony in this post:

You never posted a Bitcoin address and I can't see the email account you registered with so there is no possible way for me to confirm that the owner of this account hasn't changed.

I would go with bought account as well. They are also spamming.

this is a scam?

answered directly above



How did you get so many accounts? This illegal?!

answered directly above.

Happy to sell you my btc for PayPal.  My requirement is you send first and I wait 180 days to make sure no charge backs.  After that I send coins

-snip-
Send me PayPal.  I'll send you btc in 180 days.  Send me a pm if you are interested

-snip-
I can sell you my btc for PayPal.  You will need to send first and wait 180 days to make sure no charge backs though.  Lmk

Send me the PayPal now.  After 180 days I'll send you the btc.  pm me for details if interested

Troll offers on PP to BTC deals.



what ever happened to bitbook by the way?  I'm sure I can dig up some old posts, but if anyone reads this and knows I'll just check back later!

thanks Peeps.  Ill check out nitrogen one of these days!

double post instead of edit.



There's a lot more sellers here.  I won't be buying until below 300.  Then will buy more under 250

There's more sellers than buyers.  We still heading down here.  Buy back under 300

Going back to 300 today.  Reason: more sellers than buyers

how often can you post the same shallow argument before its spam?



So who bought above 400 and is now down over 20%??  I sold my coins at 440,  when should I buy them back?!  I was thinking under 300 but might wait to under 200.  What do you guys think??

2 hours later...

sold at 440.  bought at 400 and sold at 430.  then bought at 375 and looking to buy some more <300

If this ever happend it happend days ago.

may i know the reason why we are interested in it ?
1) If it is hacked and if the real owner cares about it ,he will make a thread in meta.
2) he is not posting bullshit but spamming for sure ( 47 posts today ), MODS will take care of it.
i personally think it is a sold one.

edit:- making threads is not gonna help, is my point.

that guy is on a roll, 49 posts today, I don't think it's a hacked account , most likely a bought account and he is trying to maximize the full potential of his account if there is or maybe trying to get the moderators attention Smiley

I would say with a near certainty that the account is either sold or hacked as of recently (November 4). The account's password was reset via email twice on November 4 (which is an indication of a sale) which also happens to be the time when the account started making very low quality posts, and was not posting prior to that before January 2014
Erm you mean password change right? Pass change twice usually means there was an escrow as well, sometimes it might be three times as well. But never heard of someone selling an account by resetting their password.
@OP it definitely seems like a hacked account, wonder how he may have gotten the email credentials though. Have you contacted the person yet? He may provide signed message or other evidence to prove otherwise

I could say that 90 percent of them is short post - one sentence with not capped first letter. I think that it is not hacked but most probably account farming. Other than that, it could just be someone (with only one account but) who cannot make good and long posts.

Hmm. Maybe it was sold? I've seen a lot of accounts being sold with a lot of pot. activity so that might be the reason why the guy is spamming.
Also I have a question. Where can you see that if an account has recently changed their password? (sorry if this sounds dumb but I really don't know where people see it. ) Huh

You can check that by checking their trust page. There will be red letter saying this account password was recently changed.

and additionally you can check users which changes their password for the last 30days here https://bitcointalk.org/seclog.php

This could be a newbie question but really I don;t know how you know its password was recently reset.  Grin
If one could just view this information, then it must be something a hacker may see it as a vulnerability.

There is already two answers posted in this thread.

You can see it by clicking the trust page of the user.
On the top it will be written like "This user's password was changed recently"

it might just be an account that was freshly bought, and the new owner is spamming nonsense to cash in the banked activity. if their spamming gets bad enough the mods will just ban it, no need to pay it that much attention.

Password recently reset. I'm trying not to jump to accusations but the user has been spamming with three word/short sentence posts to gain activity. I'd recommend not dealing, this is just a warning since the user seems to be posting on alot of sales threads.

Just a warning, this is not my account. I could be wrong (I hope I'm not), but keep an eye out anyways.
