Hi. Any idea why Liberty Reserve is sinkholed since 24 May 2013? There are many rumors over the Internet, some fantastic, some retarded. Some say they are under maintenance, some say the owner was arrested by FBI...
All I see is the domain being routed to ns*.sinkhole.shadowserver.org that normally happens to a domain when is taken down for malware spreading. Any verified information?

If it's true wow... they crashed the cybercrime economic system :lol:
Is the same bullshit source allover the net. Your three links go to the same source. LR is not just fraud, is legit e-currency also, don't tell me you never used. Sadly cybercrime always finds a way. Why don't they take down Webmoney or Bitcoin that are more related to cybercrime? Why? Because of mother Russia, they can't! Anyway, if this turns out to be true seems like USA government just ripped out the world again since the big bailout.

go on trojanforge, darkode or whatever europe underground forum and tell me the percentage of people using LR, even Paunch of Blackhole take this currency, there is only in hackforums you can see paypal.
and if you see carders developping LR curl scam script there is a reason.

Krebs says he doesn't know anything but the same source...Did you read at least?
And yes, LR was used by bad guys too but if you see a terrorist between 1000 people you kill them all? Yeah, US govt thinks so...
If I used LR am I a bad guy? Don't watch so much Hollywood movies, the life is not just black and white, is more GRAY!

Bad news for your laughing, LR won't shut down :)
