Title: Is StuffCoins.com a scam?
Post by: chapmanjw on January 11, 2014, 11:21:15 PM
So, I came across StuffCoins.com and it seemed like a neat idea.  Basically another eBay-style site that you can use Bitcoin or Dogecoin.  Earlier this week, I created an account and added some BTC so I could bid on an item.  I ended up getting outbit.  Now I can't seem to get my BTC back.

I've sent an email through their contact form and have heard nothing back.  Their Bitcoin page just says its now under maintenance (the page where you can add/withdraw BTC). 

Has anyone else dealt with @stuffcoins?  Is it actually a scam?

It's the same admin as earncrypto... It seems like he has abandoned that site.

So it wouldn't surprise he did the same with stuffcoins.

Or maybe the plan was to scam all along...  ???

It's irritating because it looks like whoever is running the site is continuing to post new items.

It has now been a week since requesting a withdrawal from my account.  At this point, I would venture to say that StuffCoins.com is indeed a scam.

Not a scam, your payment has been sent.

I'm just trying to juggle work with just getting over being sick + getting a sinus infection after getting over my cold/flu.

One of the main issues I'm facing is having to manually send all the withdrawals which I need to do because of sellers trying to rip off and scam buyers. So in order to protect users deposits I have to manually review sales/withdrawals to make sure sellers arent trying to scare/trick buyers into leaving positive feedback without actually receiving the item.

I will have everyones emails answered before the end of the weekend. If they aren't answered by then, just send again.

I'll try to have a more open dialogue with everyone and be more transparent.

Those are actually automated auctions. My account has a $5 Steam and Reddit Gold that gets autoposted everyday. The second the auction ends, a new one is recreated. This was to have stuff on the site for users to bid on when there werent any sellers. So I wasn't manually posting those to the site each day.

After about 2 weeks, I finally did receive a payout from the site.  It appears that the site is disabling their BTC functionality to focus on DOGE.  Maybe not a scam, but still frustrating.

Apparently, I sold a long forgotten item on stuffcoins.com - after the deal was completed stupid me wanted withdraw coins, well... end of story, I learned admin left this site and withdrawals are not working for months.
anyways, it seems the admin is running a more known site and I really hope you guys help me spread the word on this scammer.
Site: http://stuffpoint.com/

How I found out: my script blocker helped me there.

they use a script from <script type="text/javascript" src="http://stuffpoint.com/ztest/contentlock/assets/events.js" /></script>

does this make sense? is this a connection?

Most things working ok but withdraws need some work from admin but he is not doing any thing for long time which is suspicious

the admin abandoned this project, no idea why he did not shut down the site by now. however, I think stuffpoint.com is related...
