OK, been a lot of talk about crypto currencies, blockchain, etc. A lot of scams too preying on people who are ill informed about how they work. I just heard today about an epic reverse scam.

Essentially the "victim" posted the key to his Minerium wallet in response to someone looking for fools online. It was in a public forum. The wallet had a decent amount of dough in it. Several individuals initiated transfers to claim the dough which require that they send some amount of their own currency to incent miners to pick up the transaction for transfer. The currency in the account had a smart contract attached to it that essentially transferred the currency back to the original owner. Freaking brilliant reverse scam.

Be wary people, be wary...

Not sure about any of that Ching Chong Chang but bundles of fives and tens under my mattress are safe or no?
