ajvpot multi-accounting, phishing HF members, is possibly Who? - Mohatu - May 14, 2013

Hello community.

Be warned about ajvpot (https://hackforums.net/member.php?action=profile&uid=191932). Whether or not he is Who?, I'll leave up to you, but be warned that he can not be trusted, scams users out of virtual currency, and multiaccounts.

To start off, yesterday avjpot released a link to website allowing you to create your own custom BLC address, as long as it was 40 characters long.

The link to the thread:

In case he junks the thread:

I already didn't trust that, as it gives him the ability to store your bloostamp (user + password) on his server. Regardless, some members decided it was safe to use it, including the unfortunate member "Jennifer Lawrence" (https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=3478891).

Jennifer Lawrence posted this thread earlier (https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=3478891) in which he/she mentions that her bloocoins had been stolen. S/he goes on to say that it was a person named "Who?" who stole the coins.

Immediately I thought back to the website to generate your own bloostamp address. Could it be involved?

Jennifer Lawrence has a custom address generated by the site!

Thinking the two might be connected, I did some more research.

Throughout the day, a person named "Who?" has been posting in the Bloocoin IRC chat, not only admitting to stealing the coins, but also to having a "GPU miner", and complaining about being banned because of multiaccounting.

(^ note that ban link goes to Who?'s closed account)

In order to show off his amazing GPU mining speed, he linked us to some website with a graph on it:

You know what's funny? ajvpot openly advertises the SAME website on his profile:

In addition, in this thread: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=2508028

Those graphs look pretty similar, don't they? Oh wait, IT'S THE SAME WEBSITE!

There you have it. Something is clearly not kosher here.

Well shit... case closed. Nice job.

Except for the fact I was in a Skype call with AJVpot until about when he went to sleep last night and since then he has been in school. So I don't think he can be asleep and messaging you lolol.


* - Legеnd - May 14, 2013

Doesn't look like much proof to me, I wouldn't think Who? is that stupid either.

How do you know he really fell asleep?

How do you know you aren't imagining this message?

He is in the same time zone as me, has school, and he sounded tired.

Nope. Who? and Ajvpot are not the same person, if you don't believe me check out irc.teamavolition.com #avo . They're simply friends and Ajv allows Ryan to use the website.

And scamming? Stole is more like the word.

Then explain why both members used the same website? :)


* - kawaii - May 14, 2013

I've spoken to both a few times in the Root IRC channel and via XMPP and I can assure you they're not the same person.


* - Daring - May 14, 2013

That's hilarious

Regardless, virtually no proof. All circumstantial


* - Stev - May 14, 2013

We all know Who? likes to multi account a lot, but ajvpot is not Who? ... Maybe he can not be trusted, but he's not Who?.

I like the hosting setup (you take a look too, it's interesting), it's locked to the domain.

'Nope. Who? and Ajvpot are not the same person, if you don't believe me check out irc.teamavolition.com #avo . They're simply friends and Ajv allows Ryan to use the website.'

Even if Ajvpot is not Who?, then he did still help Who? to scam members of their BLC or whatever, since Ajvpot directly advertised that site.
