Man that sucks sorry @xenra it’s a crazy world with all that stuff. That’s horrible. No chump change either. And to think I was freaking out thinking I lost $350 the other day.
@Bizz:
@xenxra holy shit dude, I’m sorry to hear that. Makes anything I’m worried about child’s play.
@xenxra:
@AnnaSofia not related, scammer claiming my coinbase account was compromised engineered me and took 100k
A@AnnaSofia:
@xenra is this something h that happened to you while attempting to place magazine orders or not related?
S@SoopaFireGuy8:
Yeah I just got rugged for $300 so I know how it feels. I’m sorry it’s something you’re dealing with.
@SeaDonkey:
I hope you end up getting it back, it blows my mind how much technology is capable of
@xenxra:
i looked into hiring a reputable PI firm that specializes in tracing crypto with LE partners but they want $200 + $175/hr so i'm not particularly enthused about that knowing they could do a bunch of work just to tell me "yeah your money's gone" and then i'm out even more money from paying them to basically tell me that.
@xenxra:
@aenima1336 it's hard to say for sure. i did some more tracing last night and they're definitely moving it around a lot. i was under the impression it was one guy, maybe a small group at best, but this could be a more sophisticated group. i wasn't able to go into the fbi yday bc vet's day but i'm going in a few hours. i have my fingers crossed but i'm not expecting anything anytime soon (next few months)
@aenima1336:
So you're going to get your coins back xenxra?
@xenxra:
funny enough he actually tried to hit me again today. I got the toll free call claiming my account was at risk and he never gave me a follow up call. I guess he's got a list on hand that says he already hit my number.
@xenxra:
@CalFresh I've been active in the crypto space for about a decade now and dealt with pretty much everything and anything at this point. this dude fucked with the wrong one big time. plus I have a ton of experience in the IT field specifically with cybersecurity related practice.
@CalFresh:
@xenxra impressive! Did you figure out how to do that all on your own or are you in the industry or something ?
A@AnnaSofia:
@rhodium hey sorry, but Shoutbox is for non-shop talk. So no promotion by vends or members shouting out vends or talking about orders. All of that goes in the appropriate threads. Just a heads up.
@xenxra:
if anyone is curious on an update on my situation, i have established multiple trails through blockchain forensic analysis that have provided me credible leads through wallet taint that could allow me to identify the attacker. i drafted out an extensive 20 page report and will be reporting to the FBI directly in person tomorrow.
A@AnnaSofia:
I took a good deal of chem, organic chem, etc when I thought I wanted to go into a certain program but too hard so I changed to a non-bench science. Now I wish I would’ve stayed in lab science for nefarious purposes at least.
M@Mammasboi123:
@aenima1336 im not smart enough to know exactly what mag your acronym is referencing, but I’ve got experience in solubility of a fair number of areas. Feel free to DM. Or create a post and you may get more input 🙂
@aenima1336:
Hey, I wanna dissolve eMeSTee mags in water(for better dosage, not for sh00ting) but I'm uncertain if I did it correctly. If someone could help, pls dm me. Just 1 or 2 questions
