need someone to register that domain

Post the name of this people. Fast!

 Those people who "lost" coins don't really fury about it and it makes that suspicious...

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.

Also, in the newbie section:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/yacoin-steals-your-wallet-do-not-use-202079

I have lost coins too.

So far the reports are contained to 4 people creating all these topics (some of them making multiple topics): bennybong, Aahzman, Brewins and hdclover. Now poly has stepped forward.

It is looking increasingly likely something bad is happening here.

I belive this people work togetter to make 100posts to reduce the YAC price. Where is the proof?

Important update: user who claimed to have lost bitcoins is now saying his account was hacked and someone else made those remarks:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=202068.msg2110230#msg2110230

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2110421 - Skytape has lost bitcoins

How you can help:

1. Please add reports. It seems this is occuring to individuals who ran the windows binary downloaded from mega.
2. If affected, PLEASE state what programs you downloaded. if you downloaded the windows binary, was it definitely from the first page of the Launch topic or was it a repost to Mega you downloaded? Important!

Everyone:

1. If your Bitcoin wallet isn't encrypted, encrypt it immediately.

Possible source of Trojan is NOT in the client:

The possible cause of these claims maybe this miner which has suspicious activity in it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2110724 This is NOT the client and is NOT officially connected to YAC.
