Impossibly Perfect Sphere posted:hay guys i tried to send my monthly mortgage payment to the bank but instead i sent it to some guys in jakarta, whoops oh well learning lesson lol I have to be really careful when opening my billing statement from my mortgage lender because 10 identical pop-ups will appear and if you click the wrong one a scammer gets all your money. All it takes is a single click and the cancel button is right next to the send money button so even if you do identify all the scam windows make sure you don't fat finger the mouse even once!

No, the cancel button is also the send money button. You have to close the pop up.

Also enter in the 30 digit alphanumeric address perfectly or it will go to someone else/the void. Or use the hand QR code, just make sure that someone didn't stick a different QR code on top of it.

This is just the "which one of these fifteen buttons marked DOWNLOAD NOW is the actual download" thing, but instead of guessing wrong and getting a Bitcoin miner installed, guessing wrong lets them just steal all your money directly.

They're so deep in that they don't even consider non-crypto options.

I'm in absolute awe of the stupidity of these BBBY bagholders. It's mind boggling. So they had two auctions for BuyBuy Baby: one for the IP and another for the IP + the operation as a going concern. The first went for $15 million to Dream on Me. There were no bids for the second one. The cope is that some billionaire (Cohen, Ichan?) doesn't need the IP when they buy the operation for billions. When it's pointed out that whoever this is could have had the operation + IP for, say $16 million, their brains break Yesterday the lawyer recommended to the court that the sale to Dream on Me be approved. People quoting directly from court documents just get downvoted and replies with clown gifs. Rather than discuss this unpleasant news, they spent the better part of the day wondering if there really was a teddy bear in the window here: These guys are dumber than crypto bros. At least crypto has this layer of obfuscation that one might expect would confuse a few people. This is just a company very plainly in bankruptcy and they're convinced they'll be millionaires.

Boxturret posted:look at this fool My wife worked at a company that printed checks, and other security-type documents. This guy and one of his idiot partners were trying to start some kind of libertarian oasis in Hawaii, and they thought it'd be a great idea to create their own currency. The company filled the order, thinking nothing of it, and was promptly raided by the FBI. Apparently, you can't just start printing your own currency on a lark. The printing company just thought it was novelty money. The FBI was ready and waiting to seize their computers, and even had large flatbed trailers on call to haul off the actual printing presses if the company didn't cooperate with them. They shrugged and handed over everything that they ever had on the guy and never heard about it again. I looked around for info online, but never saw anything about it. fake edit: found it https://www.cbsnews.com/news/feds-seize-fake-coins-featuring-ron-paul/ mf was putting his face on coins too lmao

Bankruptcy is very confusing to be honest. The idea that the stock holder gets nothing is very counter to the common surface level understanding of normal people about what it means to own a stock. Now if public companies and bankruptcy could be a smart contract then everyone could just audit the code in the contract and we wouldn't have this problem.

zedprime posted:Bankruptcy is very confusing to be honest. The idea that the stock holder gets nothing is very counter to the common surface level understanding of normal people about what it means to own a stock. Makes perfect sense to me. As owner of stock, you own a certain fraction of the company. The company has negative value (liabilities exceed assets), so your fraction of the company is worth negative dollars. We round that up to zero and say you have "nothing". Not sure where that seems unintuitive?

Scratch Monkey posted:What's the significance of the teddy? Ryan Cohen recently filed for a trademark of "Teddy Inc." The BBBY cult believes that this means he will soon relaunch Bed Bath and Beyond under the name Teddy, which explains why he didn't need to buy the company's IP at the recent auction. This is linked to their belief that the auction for the non-IP assets of Bed Bath and Beyond was cancelled because Ryan Cohen already secretly came to an agreement to buy everything else (so that he could re-brand it as Teddy).

DOJ indicted a DeFi hacker today:DOJ posted:In July 2022, AHMED carried out an attack on the Crypto Exchange by exploiting a vulnerability in one of the Crypto Exchange’s smart contracts and inserting fake pricing data to fraudulently cause that smart contract to generate approximately $9 million dollars’ worth of inflated fees that AHMED did not legitimately earn, which fees AHMED was able to withdraw from the Crypto Exchange in the form of cryptocurrency. This conduct defrauded the Crypto Exchange and its users, whose cryptocurrency AHMED had fraudulently obtained. Additional details regarding the attack, including AHMED’s use of cryptocurrency “flash loans” to further defraud the Crypto Exchange, are described in the Indictment publicly filed today. you gotta love stuff like this

drk posted:DOJ indicted a DeFi hacker today: The best part of this story is that the hacker seems to have legitimately been quite sophisticated when it came to his crypto usage, since they describe him using a variety of different coins and exchanges to launder the money. But it doesn't matter if the FBI can't trace your obfuscated Monero transactions when they can instead just read your search history. These people get so caught up in the idea that crypto is untraceable that they forget about everything else that can trace them.

I know accounting is a lot of people's least favorite subject but if education on it was more widespread the core equation could have probably helped a lot of these people: Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity. aka, the assets aren't worth poo poo for your shares if you're underwater. E: Oh dear god, lmbo: Loss carryforwards, definitely something people are going to buy a deeply underwater company for. Sardonik fucked around with this message at 17:45 on Jul 11, 2023 |

You know the saying, billionaires stay billionaires by wildly spending their money. Buy Buy Baby is worth so much this guy wouldn't think of buying it for like 16 million along with some ip he doesn't need that he could sell off, no he wants to buy it all for billions instead. Because it will engender lifelong loyalty from the current stock holders, whom I'm sure are the prime demographic for a baby supply store.

The actual reason "Teddy" is a thing for Ryan Cohen is that he's started writing childrens books under that brand name. https://teddy.com/pages/tribute
