Badd-Boyz Scammers

About this source

Mitchell Krogza's Badd-Boyz-Bitcoin-Scammers repo aggregates Bitcoin addresses reported in extortion, sextortion, hacked-email-password scam, ransomware, and webcam-blackmail campaigns. The dataset is small (~90 addresses) but covers an angle our other community sources miss: low-volume targeted-spam wallets that don't show up in CryptoScamDB's MyEtherWallet-clone-heavy index or in the government sanctions feeds.

How we got the data

Daily fetch of bitcoin-scammers.txt from the GitHub raw endpoint. Each line is parsed as `<address> #<category>`; we filter out non-Bitcoin entries (the file mixes in a small number of Litecoin / Monero strings from cross-chain campaigns).

Why this confidence

Community-reported, same grade as CryptoScamDB. The upstream curation is by a single maintainer; we surface the category string verbatim so users can judge how credible each entry is.

License & attribution

Public-domain community list; we retain the per-row category text and an upstream link for attribution.
