Suspicious ANN

ANN - [ANN][RECYCLEFORLIFW][RFL][Global decentralized Tokenized Recycling Network]

I have a strong feeling of this being a scam. I'd like for the people who know more than me to look into it. Thanks! Smiley
There is already scam accusation thread made about that project, so if you have any new findings, best is to share info there.
[WARNING] Recycle For Life Plagiarized Whitepaper

Purpose of this topic is to share ANN threads with suspicious links, not ANN of suspicious projects in general, for that Scam Accusations board is used.

Suspicions -

- Fake Team members (Possibly)

- Plagiarized Whitepaper

- No wallet links or anything other than information on their ICO

- Typo in the main Subject [RECYCLEFORLIFW] (No real project miss stuff like this)

- Website is just another WP theme (Seems like they were in a hurry)  Roll Eyes

- Last GitHub activity on Aug 15, 2019 (Probably a stolen/sold account.)

At least some of the threads are still there:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-ravencoin-rvn-pow-gpu-mining-asset-transfer-blockchain-updated-ann-3238497

And if you follow the link for the windows miner it goes to:
https-:-//github.com/RavenCommunlty/kawpowminer/releases/download/1.2.2/kawpowminer-windows-1.2.2.zip

Not the proper link so a flag is good. Also, if they ever come back as a legitimate user we can pull our support from the flag.

-Dave

Flags show in his own threads (does not have any) and on his profile/trust page.
I know it's phishing.. I also said that a few posts back.

It's just that I don't feel confortable leaving a flag on a hacked account. The original owner posted only russian and at some point someone else "found" his password and user gets a flag
. A permanent mark on that profile.
IMHO a negative would suffice in these types of cases.
Most of them were newbies accounts, jr member... dispensable basically.
I understand you want that banner to be displayed in the thread because most of them are self-mod and they delete the warning posts but... At least for higher rank members I would rather not taint them for having a week password.
The user is locked and needs to email us before using it again.

It's permanent, but if everyone withdraws their support you have to click to see it.
And if I change the reference post to say it was a hacked account and then recovered it shows what happened.

Heck I have an unsupported flag against me. suchmoon has a bunch. So long as they are not supported it does not matter. IMO
You and others might feel differently. But if the user does come back and post the he got his account back I will remove my support of the flag. And note in the post that the issue was resolved.

Maybe let me know if the Account gets recovered and all is fine again with the Account so i can remove my Feedback i have given.
Also i will take a look of older ANNs that was done in the past maybe i can find some changes from there Gihub links and Sources too.

Also reported.

That user bagera was most definitely hacked and his threads were trashed. A flag might not be that useful right now imo...

Or should i report it ?

His first post since December 29, 2018 was a link to RavenCommunlty GitHub repo made back in May, which indicates that it's probably a hacked account.

Thread trashcanned
Archived: https://archive.vn/HTSbC

OP's account was locked.
Definitely had the good github repo and edited it later on. As OP admitted he was hacked (but I call BS on that)

Another one for the list I guess...

P.S. sent a merit to the first guy who mentioned the link issue before trashing the thread (just so we're clear on that  Tongue )

And as i have written in the thread why he hasnt posted the Website and original github link.
Nice catching and watching on that morvillz7z, thank you .

Suspicious ANN !!

Thread : [ANN] [HNS] HandShake - peer-to-peer root system [POW/Own algo/Exchanges]

We got in the past an User firehawk71 that has posted the same ANN too but it got deleted !

This is indeed suspicious but i think i was only able to report firehawk71 for his Tellor (TRB) and Kadena fake threads and not for HandShake.

firehawk71 was trying to push the following GitHub: "https_://github.com/kyokano" http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5386/53868592.html

I wouldn't be surprised if both accounts "kyokan" and "kyokano" are malicious, especially after reading these two comments:

http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5399/53998776.html
http://loyce.club/archive/posts/5398/53983159.html

Dont know whats going on with this thread from that User and will watching it !

I think i will do the same!


edit;

It turns out it is a fake ANN, OP changed the windows wallet link earlier today:

http://archive.md/VkcnK

from: https_://github.com/kyokan to https_://github.com/kyolkan/ (created two days ago)

Looks like copied and pasted from there Webpage as there is no source link in the Thread !

About HNS
HandShake - decentralized, permissionless naming protocol where every peer is validating and in charge of managing the root DNS naming zone with the goal of creating an alternative to existing Certificate Authorities and naming systems. Names on the internet (top level domains, social networking handles, etc.) ultimately rely upon centralized actors with full control over a system which are relied upon to be honest, as they are vulnerable to hacking, censorship, and corruption. Handshake aims to experiment with new ways the internet can be more secure, resilient, and socially useful with a peer-to-peer system validated by the network's participants.

The next thing is on the Github from github.com/kyokan is also a folder github.com/kyokan/hsd/releases !

But on the Webpage https://handshake.org/ they have the Github:

Do you guys have any thoughts on this ?
First thing, there is no need to quote their whole ANN  when you are reporting something suspicious, link to topic and archived version is enough.

Regarding that DSF project, whether they intend to spread malware I don't know, but they are obviously shilling their thread. Newbie accounts made in 2018/2019 with no prior activity suddenly  appeared just when this thread has been made, and showing classic shill behavior. That is not something that any legit project would do, and is  a big red flag in my eyes (not the reason to delete the thread though, but you can always report shill posts, and usually they get deleted.) So yeah, they are definitely suspicious.
