Title: bter scam
Post by: bterscam on January 13, 2014, 07:47:24 PM
Hello,

Just wanted to expose my situation and check if there is a lot of persons in same situation as me. I have been scammed by Bter. I had around 0.2 BTC (I know it's not a big amount) and when I tried to withdraw it showed an error:

Funds error, please contact admin, error code:BTC-xxxx--yy--z.zzz

It was aroung 6 BTC inbalance, funny thing is maximum amount I ever had and traded in my account if we sum all alt-coins are not worth more than 2BTC. I contacted them and didn't get a reply in 7 days. That's when I decided to try a solution I found on this forum and just do stupid trades to lower the inbalance. I ended with 0.14 BTC but I still had 4.5 BTC inbalance so I stopped doing it. Finally got a reply from Bter support and they asked me to deposit BTC to solve the inbalance. When I entered my account, they have taken everything and it's -25$. So they take all the money without an explanation and they say I owe them? How is that? I sent them 3-4 emails already for explanation but they just ask me to make a deposit.

Is anyone in same situation as me?

Im web developer, I'm even thinking of making a website to denounce this and warn everyone about what is happening in that exchange.

Thank you

I've made 3 NXT deposits to BTER:

But after 24 hours, only 2 are there:

So 51000 are missing (transfer has 500 confirmations).

Beware before you trade there, your NXT will disappear!

Support does not respond.

The fee for transfer is 1nxt? So 3 -  1 = 2?
