Why didn't you tell me this could happen Veeky Forums?
>Missed the SelfKey ico >Someone in the telegram messages me >Says he's a referrer and you still might be able to buy a smaller amount >Asks for my email >Send him a throwaway because I thought it was a scam but what the heck >Get an email from the official selfkey email listed on their site >Its the official email, it cant be a scam right? >Send 8 eth >Wrong
Well that's me done now. That was my entire portfolio gone in a second. I didn't know what email spoofing was until about 2 hours ago. I don't even know what to do now I want to kill myself
>'I didn't know what email spoofing was until about 2 hours ago.'
Maybe you should just get a day job. I don't think internet-coins are for you.
Carson Moore
....you didn't know people could spoof emails?
Fuck user. Always triple reference that shit.
Josiah Allen
Lol tard. I probably shouldnt post this, but it's this easy to fake an "official email": emkei.cz/
Grayson Ross
Damn I would fall for that too. But luckily I don't invest in icos
Julian Brooks
>I suspected it was a scam >I engaged with the scammer anyway >Sent 8 ETH after engaging with this scammer
Xavier Long
delet
John Clark
well, luckily its only 8 ETH. now you learn, grasshopper.
Dylan Howard
This is why the US government doesn't allow the poor to be early investors.
Landon Cruz
I know No, not greedy really. It wasn't listed as a discount, it was the same price I just thought I could buy at ico price I should have known I fucked up but it wont change reality for me now
I cant believe I did
Yeah I thought it was just paranoia after seeing the official email
No i think its done for me now
Hudson Gray
>Well that's me done now.
Good. Stupid people like you will end up killing the game. The government use idiots such as yourself as an excuse to bring in regulations and fuck everything up for the rest of us.
Kayden Powell
c'mon, don't be a little pussy. get some ETH and hold it until summer and you'll have your gains back.
Jaxson Ross
can you send me some eth I am official ICO :^)
Tyler Ward
I feel generous. If you post your wallet address to prove you were scammed and you're not a LARPing faggot, I'll send you 2 ETH.
Chase Turner
>implying youre not being scammed right now
Eli Cook
>babby's first Internet adventure cost him $8K Wew lad
Juan Bennett
At least an hero some communists or try to kill kim jung un by pretending to break off from america.
Hudson Gonzalez
>I didn't know what email spoofing was until about 2 hours ago
what the fuck are you doing on sites like Veeky Forums and investing in crypto without knowing fuckall about anything? how would you not just intuitively know about spoofing? this is something thats been around for like 20 years
Blake White
LOL U MORAN
Jason Robinson
Hello can I interest you in NIG coin? It is going to be a block chain for food stamps. Just send me some ETH and I’ll get you started.
Brandon Cooper
OP you must scam them back now
Carter Rogers
How? I haven't cried to the government. I take the blame I fucked up
Poor as shit. That eth was everything I've gained from September to now after I started with 1k
I see it all the time too but I thought it was legit the email being the official one convinced me
Fck him this makes me angry to look at
Charles Harris
I was legit scammed man, no larp
Aaron Bailey
dont feel so bad OP, it a risky business. Imagine if you get 200k in the next few years, I bet you wont lose it all because of this. Ive been ripped off begining last year when I was high on Xanax. start of 2018 my ICO went up 1000%. This whole thing is up and down, you have to learn from the downs. This happens to everyone eventually.
David Moore
God dammnit I keep getting connection error when posting Only me? >inb4 trojan
Josiah Robinson
Maybe it's the universe telling you to stop trying to dabble on internet money that's clearly beyond you, should've listened sooner
Dylan Rivera
No it isnt beyond me I just didn't know what email spoofing was until now Doesnt mean im not more knowledgeable than you in pretty much everything else
Elijah Torres
You clearly aren't if you hop on assumptions just to make you feel better about the FACT you lost your money just by being stupid
Matthew Ross
>no larp proceeds to hide the wallet
Cameron Allen
The email threw me off
Daniel Parker
i already posted the wallet above
Jack Williams
Never reply to anyone talking you in private faggot
Bentley Kelly
>A magical unsolicited visitor appears from nowhere offering you an incredible awesome deal for no good reason, just send him the money no strings attached through an unverified channel exposed through private means of communication But it's alright because the mail threw you off
Wyatt Green
>as you probably heard
Zachary Sullivan
God damn that "I" as an L they done a pretty good job, best I've seen for a while.
Years of playing Runescape as a child opened my eyes to this shit.
Kevin Walker
what I? There is no i as an I
It's the legit email, but spoofed using some software or however they do it. It shows as the legit email. That is how it got me
Easton Reed
...
Hudson Wood
Those characters who had their name like "lIlIlIlI" (LILILILI)... who could tell that it would be useful later in life.
Yep, that's a capital I which seems like a lower case L. I = l.
Chase Jackson
>Live EDU 10x
Julian Moore
No, you're not understanding. It's not a trick where the L looks like I or whatever. It's the actual email. They edit the headers of the email somehow and it appears genuine
It's not an uppercase/lowercase trick.
Ian Parker
MODS please ban veiled begging threads
Lucas Wright
This isn't a begging thread I was scammed not a larp or pajeet shit Read the thread
Parker Perez
This happened to me from "mt gox support" back in the day. Stole $2k and a few 100s BTC.
Had made some gains, so didn't lose money, but still.
>would've been a millionare today It stings, but you'll get over it eventually. Invest what you can afford to lose in safe staking coins, like ETH and ADA when it's available Q1/Q2 sometime.
Why are you answering in place of the OP? Want to get some free money???
Evan Reyes
>OP gets free coins for falling for a Nigerian Prince scam
If you're feeling generous and don't want your ETH in the hands of Nigerian Princes please send some to my address

Carson White
Took a while before I bothered with crypto again. Started investing july/august 2017.
30% ADA 20% POT (mined for a few days since it was new with a single R9 280X) 15% LTC 10% INT 10% VEN
Last 15% spread in EOS, BWK (mined), XMR (mined) and IOTA
Tyler Davis
I am OP but Veeky Forums kept saying connection error when trying to post, plus I'm using 4g LTE so it changes ip randomly.
No one sent anything and I never asked anyway I just got scammed and maybe this will stop someone else from falling for it It's probably a profitable scam. It looked legit
Oliver Perry
I'm sorry then. I didn't want someone to send eth to the wrong person. I know you didn't ask, but... just in case.
Grayson Barnes
No worries He was trolling anyway. Got my hopes up for no reason m9
