Hello everyone, especially you who created the thread. 

First of all, thank you for sharing all the wallets, but I believe that more than 95% of the published wallets are fake, and I'll tell you why: 

I've been working on deciphering wallets for almost two years now. I've managed to unlock several wallets from other clients (always real ones, not ones found on the Internet) because they provided me with clues, and for me, that's a great success. These here are practically impossible to crack because no one would ever publish a **wallet.dat** file with all the clues for just a few euros—it’s simply impossible. 

The scammer behind this is, logically, just that—a scammer. They are not interested in helping anyone but themselves. That’s why they either publish a fake **.dat** file or a real **.dat** file BUT with false clues. 

How do I know the clues are fake if I haven’t managed to open the wallet? Well, a few weeks ago, I met the real and original owner of the wallet containing 340 BTC online. 

It was pure luck since I get contacted by many people, but this person explained that he was the genuine owner. I asked why I should believe him, as many try to deceive me with that claim. So, we connected via Google Meet, he shared his screen, and he showed me an email he received in 2010 with the wallet file named **"wallet.dat"**. The email description stated that it contained 340 BTC, which at the time was worth only $15 or $20, and it was sent for a specific reason that I won’t disclose. 

This email was sent to him by the original owner, meaning someone created the account and password, and this wallet was used as a payment method for another person. Fortunately, I was able to meet both people during the call since they are friends, and they confirmed 100% that the clue circulating online regarding the 340 BTC wallet is an absolute, total, and complete lie—it’s entirely made up. Therefore, the **.dat** file circulating on the Internet is most likely fake as well. The original **.dat** file we have shows in its "properties" that it was created in 2010, meaning it's the real one. 

They lost the password because it was something they used only for that specific moment and for a reason I also won’t disclose, and they never remembered it again. 

Why am I writing this message on this forum? Why am I wasting time doing this when I have the real creators of the wallets who can provide me with unlimited clues? They already have, and we are creating multiple dictionaries, and we believe we are getting close. However, after discussing it with them, we concluded that we need to post this message to find the REAL person who first received the wallet from my client. 

We need the REAL person who originally received this **.dat** file to contact me at **pacossii105@gmail.com**, because the original owner told me that seeing the email he used to send the file might help him remember the password. 

We talked about this, and at first, I didn’t understand, but it turns out he doesn’t remember the email he used because he had many. Seeing that email would remind him of the exact theme and certain clues related to the password. The theme is something only he understands—the email itself is not part of the password. 

I encourage the real person—the first person who received this **.dat** file back in 2013 or 2014 (which is when it was shared with the world, a mistake on their part, I must say)—to come forward. 

This is not a lie, this is not a bluff, this is 100% real. 

We would appreciate it if you contact me privately with that first email where my client explained the situation and the exact email he used. We know that scammers change the clues so that no one can ever solve it—this has been 100% confirmed, at least in this case. By extrapolating, I assume it’s the same for the others. 

As a token of appreciation—because we know this is an effort for everyone—we are offering **5% of the 340 BTC** to the REAL person who contacts me with my client’s original email. 

Since we also know that this message may never reach that person, we are offering **2.5%** to anyone who gives us the contact information of that person or provides a different clue. We **do** know which are the real clues, so don’t come to us with lies. 

Thank you very much for reading.
