Topic: [SCAM][SPAM] User "bitcoinicon" selling corrupted Bitcoin wallet (Read 2014 times)

Good news everyone, expect for bitcoinicon...  

Bitcoinicon has 2 more bitcointalk accounts.Let's see the proofs!!  

https://www.bitrated.com/bitcoinicon - Linked his Bitcointalk, twitter, reddit account - Diffidently him !

https://www.reddit.com/user/bitcoinicon - Posted that he is the Tittiecoin team and again his bla bla about suing..



That other bitcointalk account is tittiecoin --> https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/tittiecoin-231357

When you check the WhoIs about for the website TittieCoin.com and compare it to his other website bitcoinicon.com, you see the same "company"/"organization" - DIY WEB BUSINESS LTD and name Ricky Heuwel..connect the dots.  

https://www.whois.com/whois/tittiecoin.com - https://web.archive.org/web/20170812152235/https://www.whois.com/whois/tittiecoin.com

https://www.whois.com/whois/bitcoinicon.com - http://web.archive.org/web/20170812152318/https://www.whois.com/whois/bitcoinicon.com


Also when searching up the name Ricky Heuwel you stumble onto his one more account --> digitalgold - https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/digitalgold-446015 and one scam accusation thread --> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/thief-ricky-heuwel-aka-digitalgold-aka-digital-gold-ltd-1024863.There are not any strong proofs in that thread that he scammed that person and neither do I.

These are his 2 companys..

He is a little bit Italian and African.  

this thread blows my mind. you dont seem to have the proper understanding of blockchain to even BE a scammer, let alone even CLOSE to a legitimate user here..
I also tin foil head a bit of a circle jerk on this forum, but damn dude, you NOR your shills have even ONE retort of the REAL hard evidence, and as said, im also at a loss to words to whether you just think people hear believe WORDS blindly or you REALLY dont know how the chain proves payments here PUBLICALLY :/
Either way, you, sir, are a mess, oh snap someone called YOU Sir for once

haha, what a joke, dude give it up. 
Oh, i guess i now await your lawyers you send to everyone here saying what i did, good!, i need a good ball emptying

Here is the main investigation thread, I will update this thread regularly and will create separate threads for each of these so called people. If you have been a victim and have lost your reputation or business as a result of false allegations on Bitcointalk.org please get in touch, I also have a mailing list there where I will share legal best practice.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcointalk-ring-exposed-2079010

You are the main culprit here I already know your Full name and where you live, to prove it these are your initials A J and if that is too wide for you your name ends in a (j) and your last name ens with a (c) I have traced you to an address as well wont be surprised if you are friends with the turd claiming to be Satoshi (What a joke) you are in an island just besides that where people feel a bit inferior, no wonder you act the way you do.

I started with you because you are the main instigator and I will not stop, today I will unleash a shit storm for you turds, screw the negative ratings keep it. I have a profile for each of you with enough information to make sure you people are exposed for the little turds you are.

To be honest, Lauda didn't start this. This guy already received some negative feedback by the time Lauda showed up.
There is no need to fight, you just have a different opinion then us.

That is usually a major weakness.

Benefit from what? How?

It takes two to tango.

You might as well invite criminals to a island paradise for a few parties.

When I see them actively trying to make up for their mistake, helping out to prevent similar scams in the future I am willing to forgive them. Malicious or stupid is not decidable from here. Maybe I shouldnt be so forgiving, but thats who I am. Since you benefit from this as well, maybe just for once, you and the others that tend to follow you can not make this another shit show. Im trying to mitigate further damage, while you again torch the earth.

Water is wet, but apparently not for bitcoinicon. Have fun with your lawsuit in case that you don't remove the negative rating.

Thanks for posting this.

---

Just my 2 cents here, but this will lead to nothing.

I did none of the above but you have your head so far up your snake butt that you cant see straight. This has gone way above redemption, it's not about making sure you all pay for not talking the time to give me the benefit of the doubt.

Before this i have no idea it was even possible to fake a mo*^%&& FU&*%& WALLET!!!! JEZUZ!!!

As there seems to be a group of people here hell bent on only destroying the name I work under you removing your feedback is not enough, you will need to work with your little clan of turds to do the same. I will make a video tonight where I will showcase all this and pass it over to youtube to decide and will email a link to all of my mailing list and subscribers with the threads I am creating... They can then all leave you turds feedback about how to go around damaging other peoples feedback... You all deserve that, and I have a fair few subscribers and a very large mailing list.


I will post when I pay everyone back, but i'm sure someone will say its fake because that what the little babies here are like. I'm paying everyone back because I would not have sold this wallet if I knew it was tampered with.


Providing what TXID? The one where I paid the guy back yesterday? What difference will it make?? Someone here will still say its fake!

It is not a "false statement" when you are actively promoting it without doing any tests to prove that it is real in the first place. Its actually quite time consuming and expensive to sue people for defamation, especially when you most probably won't win the lawsuit. Oh yeah, it might be quite hard to sue people overseas too.
Just a reminder, the negative feedback you gave implies that "Negative - You were scammed or you strongly believe that this person is a scammer.". Retaliatory feedback do not work in this forum.
I will give you the benefit of the doubt and I will consider to remove MY feedback as long as you can prove that you have compensated for everyone who was affected by your sale of wallet fairly.
Sure.

---

You seem to be avoiding the issue on providing the TXID.

You're definitely on the right path towards redemption by:
1) Spamming fake negative ratings.
2) Threatening users.
3) Creating, likely, shill accounts to leave positive trust ratings to yourself.

---

Users like this usually do the most damage to themselves post an accusation.

I love surprising arrogant little turds like you...

Yes you did. Failing to admit wrongdoing makes you even more shady.

Threatening people around here usually results in a negative rating. Go ahead and sue a cat for leaving you a negative rating on the interweb.

Why would shorena (and me) want to damage your reputation? You have no reputation to begin with, idiot.

Yep, I've heard that story quite the number of times from people who have threatened me in the past. I'm still waiting for someone to show up.

1) I did absolutely nothing intentionally
2)I am threatening lawsuits you are correct on the following grounds and I am not going to hold back on this! http://www.alllaw.com/articles/nolo/civil-litigation/defamation-character-lawsuit-proving-harm.html
3) I am not leaving fake feedback! I am making sure people know that you all are only out to damage my reputation regardless of anything I do to correct it so I will make sure that I follow through with what I have been working on over the last couple of days.

I have already emailed all 4 people that bought this wallet, not one of them complained it was fake and I had no idea that it was even possible to fake a wallet. I run a Youtube channel and website linked to this name that you all are trying to sabotage. I have many youtube subscribers and a mailing list of people, the same way you lot have carelessly left me feedback without giving me the benefit of the doubt they all will post feedback for you on how you have been working together to damage my reputation.

I have websites, email address, Bitcoin talk handles and a few other things you people think you can hid behind Bitcoin talk but you are wrong. I will be creating a main thread for this whole issue and separate threads for each person involved. Some of you have gone as far as posting on my customers threads, for this there needs to be some sort of example made in this cesspool of snakes called Bitcoin talk.

Yeah, he left everyone that feedback..Also, if someone is offering him a reputation service, he should tell us who offered him that, so that user can be left with negative feedback.Also, such service is impossible to do, but as bitcoinicon is so desperate, he is then a easy target for such things..

This guy left a very weird negative feedback today for me
"I have since been offered reputation services to the cost of $4000 to clear my Bitcoin talk name" and referenced this topic.
Now I have him on the ignore list since he was annoying, but I see no one offering him any services here...

I'm still waiting for this and no answer either from jannetdesbiesn or bitcoinicon..


You probably sold the wallet to qasimilyas99, either way how would he got the wallet file download link from your website? Maybe someone posted it in your youtube comments? Can't see that..


I agree, you have good points there.

Even if you return the money to any *past* customers, your negative trust ratings won't be removed as:
1) You intentionally did what you did.
2) You're threatening other people with lawsuits.
3) You're leaving fake retaliatory ratings.

Please also see this thread for proof of communication with a buyer I refunded and an email where I said I no longer sell the wallet months ago.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2065259.new#new

Here you can see that I was accused of scamming user qasimilyas99 by user aleksej996


When you look at the feedback its user qasimilyas99 that was accused of scamming people with this wallet

I do logo contests, threads, trading and websites I am not a crypto creator. I do not create currencies so the fact that I am full time in crypo does not suggest that I am the one who created this wallet. I have said over and over I had NO idea it was even possible to do this!!! I will do a lie detector test to prove my innocence. Also since this has happened I have been offered reputation services to the cost of $4000?? How convenient!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's clear that several people have been conned by this particular wallet (not that the wallet-selling-scam is anything new). It also seems that at least a couple of people have been reselling this wallet, possibly without the knowledge that it's empty or broken, or possibly with that knowledge.

FWIW, there's no hard evidence that I've found which implicates anyone in this thread (or the others referenced) of being the creator of this wallet / original scammer, so I personally see no reason to assume malice on anyone's part. On the other hand, reselling this wallet (or any for that matter) is at the very best terribly irresponsible.

I wouldn't think this needs saying, but buying a wallet of dubious origin is never a good idea. It's trivial to create a wealthy-looking wallet which appears undoctored but is actually devoid of any spendable funds. This particular wallet is not an example of this (it's obviously messed up in several ways), but the bottom line is: caveat emptor!


Anybody with a full node and the wallet.dat in question can verify that it contains no spendable funds. (This is not true in general, but is true for this particular wallet.) The email where I was quoted above (highlighted in way-too-much-red) shows how to do this.


I don't mean to pick on you, but claiming that your are "in crypto full time" and at the same time were unable to see any problems with this wallet (some of which were very much related to cryptographic mistakes) does little to advance your credibility IMO.

I am telling you that I did not sell this wallet knowing that it was not real as I am led to believe. I am willing to do I lie detector test to prove my innocence. What you and the rest of your crew are doing is damaging my reputation based on the assumption that intentionally acted with the intent to scam, this my friend is not the case so you are the one on the wrong side of the law.

The only negative feedback I have is from your crew claiming I am a scammer.

Right now,you're the one with -8 negative feedback for scamming,stealing bitcoins,cheating and promoting a potential scam all over the internet.What makes you think the law will work in your favor ? The place where I'm from,you could go to jail for several years if in your position at the moment.

Well you seem to be the one that is not familiar with the law, not me. I have the means to get to where you are no matter what it takes.

And you left me 2 negative retaliatory feedbacks ? You think you can really take me to the court from across 7 seas ? What  are you going to tell the judges ? That you were dumb enough to get duped by a 12 year old who sold you fake wallet lol ? Cool bro.

Thank you, I have already refunded one of the buyers and have three left to go. I have already deleted the wallet from my laptop and sever in a fit of anger so cant post it but I'm sure the guy that made the thread that everyone was trying to get the wallet from has it. I'm more than happy to do the video for educational purposes and will do so.

Evidence of buying the wallet file and receiving the refund? Transaction ID and signed message? Proof of communication?

I'm buyer of wallet.dat, today I have received email from bitcoinicon and he informed me about the bad news, he was in shocked but I was also in shocked due to this bad news, bitcoinicon sent my payment back to me, I want to say he is cooperative person and thank you so much.

I have no power over them, but I would appreciate if we stayed on topic here. If there should be anything wrong with a contest you did or didnt hold or an ICO or something else, its perfectly fine to make a new thread about it. Present proof - if any - and ask for DT support if needed.

A new video, maybe with the help of gurnec if they are willing to chime in, would IMHO be a good step for several reasons. For one its better for your reputation than threads. It also helps spreading awareness of this potential problem. I dont know of a similar case. Depending on your youtube and social media skills, you could also monetize the video to help partially cover for your loses.

Speaking of loses, IIRC you said you got 0.1 BTC each for the file, sold it 4 times and that its been a while. Considering the significant price change of BTC I dont think its fair to expect you to repay the full 0.1 BTC each. Maybe adjust by preev rate of last deal or something. I would also expect those claiming a refund to somehow be able to provide evidence that they bought the file from you.

and maybe for education's sake put the zip file with the wallet back online? Maybe with a short .txt note added or something so people finding old links know whats up.

I sold this file to 4 people, I will gladly send them a refund and create a new video. I would like make it clear that there is no reason for this guy to start targeting my customers work. I am going to fulfill the criteria of your requests and request that he stops posting malicious comments o my threads.

Look at what you are doing now, this thread was created after a logo context was that I ran for a customer!!!!! There is no reason why you have to do this to me! I have cooperated with you. I have even offered to talk with you to resolve this issue!! You have no intention to resold this you are simply a little turd that wants to damage my reputation and livelihood. If you think I am going to let you get away with what you are going you are wrong. You are all wrong! 

Thank you Shorena for stepping in. 

Bitcoinicon is trying hard to bullshit his way out of this after realizing that his account got to waste..

Also, seems like he is running a ICO scam, Dirhamcoin!

The website states that the coin collected 480 BTC.If, a coin collected such amount there would be at least some talk here on bitcointalk.. 
It's obvious that he is here to scam people, out of their money..

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19290862
https://dirhamcoin.com/

Thats not how this works.


Feel free to find someone trustworthy that can confirm this and resolve the issue with the other party. I suggest you ask very nicely here -> https://github.com/gurnec/btcrecover/issues/85 for an expert option and provide as much information as needed.


The file itself was looked at by an expert and ruled to be intentionally corrupted.

---

That might just mean that you have no idea what you are looking at.


No, its not. Considering the evidence it is very likely that you did this on purpose. Having to wait for your reply would give you more time to potentially scam more victims, thus the usual approach is to shoot a negative rating first and allow you to answer to it later.

---

No. See above how to sort this. Neither my, nor your face has anything to do with this.

---

Good luck. If you instead would like to resolve this issue, start repaying. If I may suggest; a second video explaining what is actually up with the file would also be a good idea IMHO.

This is the truth, I think you are simply out to damage my name... You have no intention to resolve this, you simply want to make me look bad so please accept that you are not as anonymous as you think. I've tried to be civil with you and I will have no choice but to take this up though legal action and through providing legal documentation to the forum.

In case you need to familiarize yourself with this
http://www.alllaw.com/articles/nolo/civil-litigation/defamation-character-lawsuit-proving-harm.html

Hmmm..I thought the answer would be like this...... 

I sent this from BITTREX a very long time ago and it was to someone online also to an email I no longer have.

Here you go, again this was a very long time ago that I got this wallet and had no idea it was even remotely possible that it could be a fake wallet.

I'm happy to give the 0.1 back to all 4 the people that I sold the file to and can send you screenshots why I have said the wallet is no longer for sale and people even getting angry at me. I only sold it to make back a little of what I spent and I was told that its a gamble to crack and I also told the 4 people I sold it to that its a gamble.

TxId: 5e6521f0c44ee9fb520505e0ce92329792b454e6fb7cc3f62a9416454c0c57fe

Please dude I am not trying to scam anyone and this is totally wrong the way you have gone about this.

I think you will find that the joke is on you...

You're a one big joke...

yes that is the file correct, the part that you are missing is that there was no malicious intent on my part I had no idea at all that it was even possible to have a wallet with no BTC showing that it does have BTC in it and that is the honest truth.

Sure its my domain... If it was trying to rob people why on earth would I use a domain? You jumped a little too quick and did not contact me first so worry you are the fallen one here not me.

http://bitcoinicon.com/468-Bitcoin/468-wallet.zip

Here's the link to your wallet file directly from your site.Link was given by that user you sold the wallet file! Search his topic..

And you use your own domain names email..Soo connect the dots..

You got a wallet from someone else that said they got it from me??? and you go straight to accuse me?

Just forget about this account and start a new one.You wasted your chance.You have been uncovered.That's the best option for you.

Try to be honest and try to stay away from scammy tricks and whatever else.

This is obviously from google bots that is used to rank info, please you call yourself a tech savvy person... I made one video and that it. The video might have been published to social media during upload but that;s it. I did not do any other marketing and only sold it to 4 people , honestly.

I am going to be very frank, send me the email where I sold this wallet to your guy... If I do not get that proof or my bad feedback is not removed I am going to be forced to take things further. You guys made a mistake here, I can see how you might think I am the bad one but you stepped a long way out of line.

You have really put your time to spam the shit out of this! And I have only screenshoted the first 4 google pages! There is still more of this...

All I can say is this, I am willing to come and meet you guys and show you that I am not a scammer. In all honesty is this is a fake wallet then I am the one that got duped in the first place because I had no idea one could even fake a wallet and put BTC in it that does not exist, that is new to me.

Another thing like i said I am full time im crypto and you guys chose to not contact me to ask my story before publicly tarnishing my name. I am more than happy to take the video down if it really is a fake wallet, I must admit I am still in shock that its possible to have a wallet that has BTC in it but its not really got BTC in it... to me this is still fishy.

Guys I assure you this was not a scam attempt and unless you have time to work this out with me like decent people and no go around defacing my threads and posts as you have already... you can bet your cotton socks I will have you all in court.

So, you modified the wallet file yourself? Nice job you did there  



Someone, prepare me some popcorns! I want to enjoy this in full Cinema experience!  



Also, nice scam you have there with your DirhamCoin ICO! https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.19290862 Deleting my post, nice job! You're confirming everything,dudeee!

If you read the above reply in those red lines you should be convinced that the wallet showing 468 bitcoins is fake and this conclusion is coming from a BTC recovery expert with sufficient details.Knowing you have been a target of scam itself and you are promoting it,justifies the negative feedback.
If I was you,I'd return those 0.10 BTC to the buyers and ask DT members if they can fix the trust ratings.As of now,yes you could be a victim to a 468 BTC scam and you have actively promoted it.

I bought this long time ago, I assure you i did not and am not scamming anyone,

Please show me the email where I sold this to whoever says I sold it to them??? There must have been an email form me.

Take a look a few posts up, you will see a quote from  Christopher Gurnee owner of btcrecover, a little info about your wallet file, he is a expert at this.

You should have thought before making this, your fault.Atleast shows us the proof that you bought that wallet for 2 BTC and who sold it to you!

That's your mistake isn't it ? Now you know you can't crack it,you want to get those 2 BTC back don't you ?

So why don't you take those 468 BTC if they're all legit ? Why are you selling it ? Do you want them to have your 468 coins ?

No one has time for that mate,trust me.You could talk to the people who have left you trust ratings.

I have not spammed the whole internet, I made one video and this is not a scam.

Any way let me meet with you, I will bring my laptop and you can see the wallet.dat file with the 468 btc in it

Look, you might think you are dealing with some prat here but you are not. I paid 2 BTC for the wallet and though I'd sell it to about 4 people because I paid a bit for it.

I can show you emails of people asking me to sell it and I said no... The only reason the video is still online is because its good traffic for the channel. At the end of the day the wallet is not corrupted and when I load the wallet I see the 468BTC balance. So you guys could have contacted me fist like any decent human being would do before splashing all over my feedback like mindless snakes.

I'm quite angry and to be honest I'm more than happy to have a video call with each if you and come down to see you in person because all have tarnished my name and I am in crypto full time so this for me is a very serious issue.


Please arrange a time that I can call you and arrange for a meeting, I am not leaving this as is.

Exactly.He is acting so unaware of the event like it was just a casual thing to do.Matter of fact,he has paid adverting for this crap all over the internet and a couple of videos.He says he only has 4 clients but I'm pretty sure he has duped people over other forums too.

You know what else is unfair ? Life.
So you're telling me you made 0.40 out of selling something that you bought from someone who duped you ? If you think it can be cracked,why don't you give out the wallet for free and let everybody try it instead of making money selling it ? 

Its important to understand that I also bought this wallet and it runs for me. I even made it clear in the video that the wallet was bough and it is not easy to crack the pass. Its very unfair that no one thought to email me first to ask what the situation is.... But this is the culture of Bitcoin talk its riddled with this kind of behavior. If my feedback was bad then fair enough I understand you guys going to this extreme. I have not had one single person tell me the file is corrupted and I only sold the wallet to 4 People whom I have on skype and they can tell you they also have it as we have been communicating to find out if we can crack it.

Guys honestly this is not a corrupted wallet it is live on my laptop I assure you that if is is corrupted I have no idea. You could have contacted me to ask me before labeling my profile like this. I'm sorry If you think I tried to scam you but I did not and can assure you this wallet runs.

My video makes it clear that cracking the wallet is a gamble....

I have many people angry at me because I will not sell the wallet to them!

Bitcoinicon PMed me, seems like he is a little bit butthurt.  

Saw the post earlier,didn't bother paying attention since I knew people would fall for it.Glad you opened a scam accusation.He could make up whatever bullshit he can to make it look all legit but the general get rich quick scam is all I sense. I've left them a negative feedback and I hope some DT does that too.

EDIT : Someone please tell Ecuamobi to disapprove of his actions and maybe adjust the feedback.

What happened: User bitcoinicon is spaming and selling a Bitcoin wallet with 468 BTC which is corrupted and cannot be cracked or be saved.He doesn't say it's corrupted in any way..He is using his website email [email protected] to conduct this scam and is offering the wallet file for 0.1 BTC.His email is spammed all over the internet, do a quick search and you will see.

His website and email is linked to his bitcoinicon forum profile here on bitcointalk.I don't approve his actions and he deserves a negative trust!
