I've made myself a public wallet (sort of by accident in my first post). Not sure what use it's going to be but it seemed a shame to waste it so I've put it in my sig. You could send it some coin and we'll all watch and see where it ends up.  Cool

I just received a text message alert from my wallet stating I've received .25 bitcoins

Sender:

1BW9AYABR72GEWY4gwe5nXwNsAoZkJmxhL

Me:

1ARESQKa1AjMvRPfiBGkrc4981uzu8ecbd

That was in error. It should have gone to my wallet. Please forward it to the address in my sig.

That was why I was being vague.  I did not want to put it in writing.

It does not look very different from some of your other transactions.

It looks like it could be a resolved bet from [urlhttp://www.bitbet.us]BitBet[/url]. May just ended so they closed out a bunch of bets. This weekend I had a moment of confusion as I wondered where some of the coin I received came from, but the address seems to match this bet:

SatoshiDice will be Taken Down/Seized By the US Government Before June 1st.

Thanks I forgot all about that.

LOL I can just imagine rich Bitcoiners doing this as a pass time to mess with people and laugh at them Cheesy

No see then they would be sending very specific amounts down to the satoshi e.g. 0.23590128

Ha ha that give me a the tickling of an idea... anonymous telephone directory  Huh send a an amount equal to your phone number to an address. Not sure what you could use it for but maybe a text message lottery  Huh

sucks if you live in Azerbaijan 00994xxxxx but pretty good if you live in the states 001xxxx   Tongue
Even better in my country: 370xxxxxxxx

I think all international phone numbers start with 00.

No I've never used liberty reserve.  I believe the only people I ever gave the address to were bitinstant, and casascius.  I don't think it's ever been public.

Or [conspiracy theories on] maybe someone was trying to find the owners of different wallets involved in a chain of suspicious transfers/payments to see if they would post a question about it somewhere... did you use Liberty Reserve recently? Smiley
