If someone is too childish to post their private key which has balance or has plan to use the address in the future then they do not deserve bitcoin. Let them be lol

Exactly... that's what i thought of course I tried my best let no body try to send me any private that's why i keep i self moderated so i can delete the posts but of course if some post even if I delete with minutes there chance someone can copy it.

I started with big banner "NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR COINS"... but still it was too sensitive to ask people for their private keys.. so that's why I'm ok with "Charles-Tim" claim

Well honestly speaking you got us which was your goal of course. It was obvious that someone would notice it that it was april fool. I was dumb until JeromeTash posted it. Trust me I was evern working on tagging you 😅

Hahaha tagging (Trust) is a fun game bitcointalk people love the most after merit (s) [put this s on the end or start and it still valid], if you start reading trust page you will laugh out of course 90% of the time it works but about 10% is just a blame game people blame each other and shocking to see many senior accounts are tagged with -ve trusts. I guess that's why trust is visible only certain board.

Some people do not just know much about what private key his, only when their Bitcoin has been lost will they remember they have been fooled, although that is being a fool truly. Some ways wallet generate seed phrase and private may not include such warning like 'revealing the seed phrase or private key to anyone can be used to steal the whole Bitcoin the seed or private key control from the owner', this kind of information might make the foolish newbies to avoid such scam. But, you are not wrong, anyone that reveal his/her seed phrase are not worthy to have Bitcoin.

Yes when you start with bitcoin there is always some risks involved, risk of loosing funds, risk of being scammed and its not much different then any other online platform. Let it be your bank account or social media account or your bitcoin wallet.

We should understand sensitive information is not to be shared with any one... still every other day people loose their online account or bank funds through "otp" scam or similar. So again people are so naïve, they wont pay attention and may be they will post their private keys too.

damn it is indeed a prank gone bad. it's just not the kind of a joke that we'd laugh at when there are private keys that will be publicized. there are still newbies out there. one of them even copy-pastes his private key upon joining a bounty campaign.

the one that i was very amazed at was Brainboss Vacsino campaign. it's harmless but it's an example that some users aren't understanding what they read and will just post whatever is asked.

Yes I saw this too [April fool] Vacsino media Bounty campaign || Budget $100,000 in stablecoin || and it's funny to see Full Member and Sr. Members level accounts tried to join the bounty, even when all the links in the post point to April Fool. So there is chance some user will start posting their Private Keys too :p

This is further proof that bounty hunters do not see anything on the forum, except for their bounty programs. They do not read forum rules, do not read company rules. They don't care if they are participating in a scam or in a non-existent company. These people, who registered at Vacsino yesterday, will participate everywhere, and then they will complain that they were deceived.
Therefore, all warnings to newbies sometimes become useless if they do not even occasionally start reading something other than the awards companies.

You are right... they will go and find a new bounty and will not read OP and copy paste whatever is asked in rules. One thing i can learn form it I should not have asked for Bitcoin Keys may be any fake coin like
CryptopreneurBrainboss mentioned "Budget $100,000 in BTCT stablecoin (1 month)" ... BTCT it could have worked.
