Title: Has anyone used this BitCoin debit card?
Post by: Xtal on October 17, 2012, 10:22:47 PM
Just found link post on Redit http://bitcoin-debit.com/index.php

The website seems vague

Never heard of them. Looks shady, but if it's real it could be great. Company claims to be in Panama, solid place to be incorporated. I wouldn't trust putting many BTC on the card unless I knew who was running it, though.

Looks like a US$-denominated card you can load with BTC.

Pretty strange they did not make any official announcement on the forum. They use a proxy company in Malaysia for WHOIS information + they don't use encryption to submit documentation and ask immediate payment of 2 BTC. It smell like a scam and OP look like a shill.

OP why not post original Reddit link? http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/11niur/any_reviews_of_bitcoindebitcom_is_this_legit/

Great job in looking to the that site.  I tried to post the redit link but when I clicked the title it just redirected me to the site. I haven't used redit much and I'm not familiar with it.

About me being a shell: I could see why you would think so due to my small amount of posts. Arguing that I'm not is fruitless, so believe whatever you want.

They make you send a picture holding an ID and scanned copy. If I remember correctly mtgox increases your daily maximum withdrawal limit if you submit the same information.  I'm would venture to guess most bitcoin exchanges that comply with ALM use the same criteria. 
*stretch of logic?* they use your information to assist their liquidation of illegally obtained bitcoin/identify thrift. Or they just want your $25 :)

Mind you I'm doing all this from my phone. I clicked the redirect post thinking it was going to redirect me to the comment section, instead it redirrected me to the site

This is likely a scam. There is no evidence anywhere that one of these cards has been issued. Don't waste your money!
