I think all posts with ALL RED or special fonts are very suspicious and seem to be either FUD or hacked accounts.

Hopefully administrators can clean this up, delete all those posts, suspend any accounts that look hacked, and get any substantive posts into an official thread

There's nothing suspicious about this, jeez fenican.

I installed the client and miner for YACoin on a windowscomputer to test it yesterday, the computer has several altcoin clients on it, there was still an old bitcoinwallet on that computer (unencrypted!) that had a very small amount of btc's in it. Not really enough to get worried about so I actually didn't bother much and didn't transfer them. Also a wallet with an even smaller amount of Litecoins in it is on that computer (also unencrypted), just checked and everything is still there and no suspicious activity is going on. I downloaded them from the mega link.

FACT: YAC fear mongering is a testament to YAC's success. They want it.

I am deleting all messages in ALL CAPS bright red font. Nothing personal. Looking at you hdclover.

Thank you!

For what it is worth, I had no coins stolen. I used the original executable from the OP announcement, plus compile from source on linux. If (if!) this is true, I suspect it is one of the later binaries that came out.

Just Jr. Members lost ther BTC and they registed in this Forum just to post, that they lost some BTC. A bad joke

Says the JR member? I'm not saying it's true or false, but I will say that its amazing so many people are willing to download a random 'wallet' and run whatever commands some random member tells them to with NO idea what it is they are doing.

Ehh, not really amazing. The herd mentality is really popular nowadays; why think, when you can be led?

I think it's more the profit motivator at play. Throw in the opportunity to make money, and much reason/caution goes out the window for most folks. It's all about getting there before the other guy. Not saying I don't suffer from this too, but I realize it. Can only mitigate it when you realize it.

Oh my god this is some well orchestrated FUD.

Mods will be busy today.

FACTS:

- No proof has been posted as of yet
- Initial claims by non-reputable persons on the forum
- At least one claim probably debunked (bennybong's claim https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/10-btc-sent-to-unknown-address-after-downloading-yacoin-202087) <-- He also seems to say his account is hacked? Possibly his account was hacked by FUD spreader.
- User Poly has not been online since april 18, and suddenly comes in here right now to spread this <-- hacked or FUD.

Gotta agree, after monitoring the situation for almost an hour something very fishy is going on and it smells a lot like like FUD. There is a good chance if it is real then it is not the executable linked in the YAC OP launch topic but some other .exe or even miner software downloaded afterwards.
