TLDR The Koolio offered a bounty for help in PPC mining. Messages sent to me indicated I won the bounty but it was never awarded. A recent messages from The Koolio includes a threat of BTC theft. This implies that the user could have the ability or desire to steal from others based on his/her mood. In light of this I'm requesting a scammer tag.

Here's a complete record of our interactions. If The Koolio edits his posts please take note of that. Also please note the times that the posts/PMs were made at.

Hi, still need help starting to mine? Difficulty is rising quickly so pool mining may be the way to go.

I like this pool http://ppcpool.us.to/ It's easy to set up and has low stales.

#1 Get cgminer http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/
#2 Download the ppcoin 0.2.0 client http://sourceforge.net/projects/ppcoin/files/
#3 Install and run the client. It's located within the daemon folder.
#4 Start a command window (in windows go to start and type in cmd). Then go to where the client is installed on your hard drive. Use the "cd" (without the "") to change directory. Example: cd\ will take you to your C: drive. Then cd program files (x86) will get you into your program files folder.
#5 Go into the daemon folder. Example: program files (x86)\ppcoin\daemon
#6 Type in ppcoind getinfo and hit enter. If you started the client before it should output some info about your wallet and the blockchain.
#7 Type in ppcoind getnewaddress. This address will be your username at the pool and your payment address.
#8 Run cgminer and enter ppcpool.us.to:9942 for the pool URL, the output of the getnewaddress command is your username and the password can be whatever you want (it's unimportant).
#9 Go to http://ppcpool.us.to/ and look for your username (address) in the front page after a while. You should have submitted shares. If not there's a problem.

Hope this is through and clear.

hi there, many thanks for the help. Ive done most of the instructions that come with cgminer however ive got to a big problem. when following the instructions below i get the errors thrown underneath that.... any ideas?

* Build cgminer.exe *
**************************************************************************************
Run the MinGW MSYS shell
(Start Icon/keyboard key ==> All Programs ==> MinGW ==> MinGW Shell).
Change the working directory to your CGMiner project folder.
Example: cd cgminer-2.1.2 [Enter Key] if you are unsure then type "ls -la"
Another way is to type "cd cg" and then press the tab key; It will auto fill.
Type the lines below one at a time. Look for problems after each one before going on
to the next.

adl.sh (optional - see below)
autoreconf -fvi
CFLAGS="-O2 -msse2" ./configure (additional config options, see below)
make

*Errors in ming shell*

Kular@NotAsGoodAsAni7 /g/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built
$ adl.sh
sh: adl.sh: command not found

Kular@NotAsGoodAsAni7 /g/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built
$ autoreconf -fvi
autoreconf-2.68: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required

Kular@NotAsGoodAsAni7 /g/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built/cgminer-2.7.3-x86_64-built
$ cflags="-02 -msse2" ./configure
sh: ./configure: No such file or directory

I'm not familiar with building cgminer myself. Do you use IRC? Use this link if you don't know about it: http://webchat.freenode.net/

Fill in #cgminer for the channel and that will take you to the official chat.

Not that I know, but it seems like you are missing a step or some files (library or something?). Your errors are of the file not found type, making me think some previous step didn't work properly.

Good luck.

Did you get to mine some coins? If I helped, can I collect the bounty?

Quote from: OneMINER on September 19, 2012, 02:32:51 PM

Can you please release proof that you paid out to someone so that I don't have to shame you in public?

I'm very sick of people stating that they'll pay out and then just walking away. This seems like what is going on now.

Soooo, I hope you can show me a transaction or make one quickly. I'll give it a couple of days before I air all this out. If possible release the nick of the person who won the bounty for verification.

I apologize if I've made some error.

"Like I said I will be very appreciative, and as a sign of goodwill I will donate my FULL first days earnings on PPcoin to whoever manages to get me mining whether it be pool or solo."

ok calm down, i only managed to get one card mining and no others, dont think my drivers liked mining multiple gpus on ppcoin, so ill send u something tomorrow when i get back

Quote from: OneMINER on September 24, 2012, 03:13:51 PM

Last chance. Stand by what you said or I'll let people know you went back on your word. This will be easily verified by anyone checking the address I posted and seeing no transactions on it. Here it is so you can take a look if you'd like: PXSA8T4qVCrTneJCgPSDDULwcJGn7ZqDmr
It is in this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=101820.msg1177843#msg1177843

I've been more than patient about this and have given you every opportunity to make good on your word. This is the final warning, there will not be another one before I drag your name through the dirt. The way I'll do this is by editing my post in the PPC thread to show that you didn't pay and link to a new post I'll make in the scammer section which will contain all the messages both you and I sent. I've saved every one.

As a last gripe your original post about the PPC bounty located here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=101820.msg1177774#msg1177774 implies that you'll be giving 10-20 5870s running for 24 hrs worth of PPC for the bounty. You reduced that to 1 GPU worth and I never made a peep about it. Now I am. I suggest you take this seriously, I hope you have just been delayed and that I've never had a thing to worry about.

If I am in error in any way, please excuse me.

Quote from: The Koolio on September 24, 2012, 03:54:22 PM

mate, first of all i dont appreciate you threatening me. I was going to send you some coins even though someone else helped more and actually got me running. Now you can scrap that idea. Ill send them to the other person. What makes u think I give a fuck about u blackmailing me? I really dont give a fuck, I have so many ltc and btc that your words would never change my game and unlike u tits I actually have a life out of the forums so dont count many people at all as friends on here.

In future i suggest you watch your words with regards to threatening others. If i catch one glimpse of you bad mouthing me or something you better watch your back... u might wake up one day and be missing a hell of a lot of coins.

Prick

also what makes you think you can blackmail me when you are a noob user, with 70 posts ur in no position to be bossing anyone around... stop being so desperate... you screwed urself over now as ill make sure everyone in my close circle knows ur shit

Quote from: OneMINER on September 24, 2012, 04:14:19 PM

Fine with me. 0.2BTC worth of PPC doesn't mean much to me, it seems your rep doesn't mean much to you ether. You said you'd pay, then you didn't, you gave a deadline for yourself to pay then did nothing again. I'll do exactly what I said I would. This is in no way a response to the hurtful words you used. This is to warn other users that you cannot be trusted. Your most recent PMs and this message will all be posted.

Quote from: The Koolio on September 24, 2012, 04:23:43 PM

say what you wish... regardless what you say i doubt anyone will give two shits. You can check with rubberduckie later as to whether he got the coins or not.... im waiting on his address. His instructions actually got me mining, whereas the ones youu gave me were out of date and involved compiling the miner myself. His was a simple 4 lined instruction which actually worked

Notes/Conclusion: The PPC bounty wasn't even a big deal. I view The Koolio's threats as being very serious though. If you note the times at which all this went on you'll see that I allowed ample time for payment. I have never requested a scammer tag for anybody before. I put my record up for review and will release anything I may have missed if it's requested. To my knowledge all relevant info is included in this post. I don't take pleasure in doing this.

oneMINER:

If you're concerned about the 550 PPCoins Koolio sent me, please post your PPCoin address and I'll send you the coins as a goodwill gesture after work.

PS 550 PPCoins at current market value are worth 0.09295000 BTC
