I'm almost inclined to go for a drive and meet this scammer face to face Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: iambaboon on February 11, 2013, 10:35:12 PM Guys, check your (MtGox, personal etc.) wallets, there should be a record of the sums sent to CryptoXChange. The address you sent to is the deposit address. Without that proof, you're just helping calculate a total loss, but I don't think you have any claim.

The address you sent to is the deposit address. Without that proof, you're just helping calculate a total loss, but I don't think you have any claim. I do arbitrage trading, so I regularly transfer coins all over the place. No way I could tell which addresses were for CryptoXChange with any reliability. I do have detailed e-mail records of all my trades (hundreds, probably thousands) there from my trading bot though (date/time, amount of trade, BTC/USD balance at the time). Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: Papina on February 12, 2013, 07:03:39 PM Guys, check your (MtGox, personal etc.) wallets, there should be a record of the sums sent to CryptoXChange. The address you sent to is the deposit address. Without that proof, you're just helping calculate a total loss, but I don't think you have any claim. I have an email trail of the transfer to bank account request, I have copies of all real money documentation being sent to them. I dont need a bitcoin address to make a valid claim. It won't matter in any case since they have done a runner, and nobody is getting paid back anything. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: iambaboon on February 12, 2013, 07:31:09 PM You're wrong. If you follow the bitcoins, they are being used as we speak. The funds, bitcoin or USD, do not just 'dissappear'.
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: QuestionAuthority on February 17, 2013, 10:10:28 AM 28 BTC and 8000 NMC lost. Oh well, not like it was very much. I'm so used to being fucked over by bitcoin businesses I don't even care anymore.
BTW: Anybody seen my full one-year subscription to Bitcoin Magazine that I paid for over a year ago but never received? Oh, while you’re at it, look for my GLBSE shares too. Maybe their hiding in the same place! Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: HappyScamp on February 17, 2013, 09:47:24 PM It's troubling to see all this. I am new to this scene, and am looking at making my first buy.
But sheesh! everywhere I turn there have been troubles. MTgox accounts hacked (probably key-logger software). Coinbase super slow delivery issues in recent days. this one... I am wondering if I should just stay clear. what are people's recent experiences with btc-e? TIA Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: BigFigurez on February 18, 2013, 11:32:34 AM It's troubling to see all this. I am new to this scene, and am looking at making my first buy.

I'm almost inclined to go for a drive and meet this scammer face to face Haha not a bad idea :P Anyone contacted law enforcement yet? Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: mc_lovin on February 18, 2013, 09:41:18 PM This saddens me. Huge numbers being posted here.
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: iambaboon on February 19, 2013, 11:50:27 PM About 41000 AUD so far, if I calculated correctly.
Come on, people, I'm sure there are persons out there who still wait for their money, sent a letter of demand and received no answer. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: xorglub on February 21, 2013, 09:21:46 AM Add around 500 USD + 500 AUD to that... :(
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: iambaboon on February 21, 2013, 01:43:54 PM deego, your was 60k, or total for all here ?
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: Wagamama on February 22, 2013, 11:41:17 AM Has anyone filed a petition for a winding-up order?
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: iambaboon on February 27, 2013, 10:24:16 PM Wagamama, please explain what that is.
Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: Wagamama on February 28, 2013, 08:03:21 AM Wagamama, please explain what that is. Perhaps, this link will explain clearly. http://www.findlaw.com.au/articles/2239/statutory-demands-and-winding-up-applications-150-.aspx Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: Wagamama on March 14, 2013, 04:07:53 AM Same here. Sent a letter a month ago. Somehow, hasn't been delivered yet. Let's coordinate on the next action. I am looking at filing a winding-up order but upfront fees are high (3K-5K) as per my solicitor who did the stat demand. Maybe we can join forces in filing the application? not sure how though. Or any suggestion on the next action? Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: xorglub on March 14, 2013, 12:59:18 PM Centralize the action by rounding up as many victims as possible and getting everyone to assist in some way.
Or go the opposite way and put up a bounty... Either way I'd be happy to even get half of my funds back - the other half can go towards making it possible. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: epetroel on March 14, 2013, 04:17:49 PM Either way I'd be happy to even get half of my funds back - the other half can go towards making it possible. I'll second that, but not too keen on throwing more good money after bad.

I'll second that, but not too keen on throwing more good money after bad. Are the dickholes of CryptoXcam still active in the community?

At least this might get some more attention now. I lost 25 BTC at the time which I exchanged for $325AUD. Don't I feel stupid now considering the recent price hike. Has anyone else filled in the form for a complaint to NSW Fairtrading? What info did you provide? I wonder how many complaints they would need to look into this.

Has anyone else filled in the form for a complaint to NSW Fairtrading? What info did you provide? I wonder how many complaints they would need to look into this. I filled it out - just wrote in the detail section approximately how much my bitcoin was worth back then and how much it's worth now - that i was actively trading them - and info from the CXC crooks thread - all ways electrical - colin armitt / ken armitt I think they would need at least 100 complaints to take this seriously - They currently get complaints in the thousands for other companies. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: btcnut on April 09, 2013, 11:49:49 AM - 38.9 BTC which was abotut $450 at the time. Now ~$7000

Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: epetroel on May 06, 2013, 05:43:23 PM For what it's worth, got a response from NSW:
Quote Dear Mr XXXXXXX I refer to your correspondence dated 10 April 2013 regarding Crypto X Change.

It would be worth picking up an old computer or getting a computer someone is throwing away and setting up a clean linux machine. This would be for storing your bitcoins and is safe from every day user use.
I takes some time to setup but its well worth it. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: epetroel on May 07, 2013, 12:46:30 PM Omg you guys had so much money in that exchange what where you thinking?

This would be for storing your bitcoins and is safe from every day user use. I takes some time to setup but its well worth it. Can't speak for others, but I was doing arbitrage trading which requires me to keep a balance at the exchange. I've pretty much chalked up my loss as a cost of doing business and moved on, but I'm sure others lost a lot more. Title: Re: CryptoXChange affected user list Post by: ravinp2000 on September 21, 2014, 03:00:06 PM I have opened an account with CryptoXchange with my other e-mail address (pmravindran20@rediffmail.com) in 2012 & my Bitcoin wallet is: 1CWxx7y9cYHC13zuQYDiZBBgNW6vU4Z6CR.
They have also verified my Bank account of India. In September 2012, I have received 90.33BTC and by CryptoXchange, I kept this money with them. However all of a sudden they closed down without paying up equivalent amount or returning my Bitcoins and my many attempts to contact them have failed and all my mails got bounced. It all started by blocking my access to my account.

I had a bunch of Namecoin with them also. Just lock all your Bitcoins in a safe on a paper wallet because sending them to an exchange you risk losing all of them. Or just trade them for product at a huge reputable company like Overstock or Newegg. Why should you take the risk. Let the company be the loser when the exchange disappears. |
