Post by: EdgarAlanPoo on July 10, 2019, 02:30:47 PM
Hello dears! I am the administrator of one of the popular channels about cryptocurrency. Subscribers of my channel write randoms people who are trying to cheat them on cryptocurrency.

Most of these sites are already disabled. They are similar in design and all ask for a Deposit to perform any action on this site and all of these sites SCAM.

In this topic, I will continue to post information about Scam sites and will try to provide you with more information about them.

Update: Mini proofs

Just signed up in this forum to add my 2 cents.

So I recently got into crypto investing (DGB), and I was looking for some telegram groups to join. Well I found one and after a few minutes I got contacted by some dude telling me that he has BTC stuck at this exchange and he needs me to get it out. I'd get 0.2 BTC as reward.

While I'm new to crypto, I'm not new to internet marketing and the scams that are involved in it.
But enough of me talking. Check the screenshots below to see what he said exactly:

They have around 3-4 websites, all having the same design. I can't do more than fucking with their minds a bit, but thats it. Hope no one of you sent those scammers money

Update: Mini proofs 2

I asked one of my channel members to play along with our scammer and that's what we've identified:

Recently, i was approached by a person with a request to help withdraw his BTC (2 BTC) from this fake exchange https://24xcointrade.com/. He asked to register on the site and send him my mail, that he would have transferred me the balance.

https://imgur.com/a/Qk6TlOP

After that, he explained me how to withdraw money from this site. I did according to his instructions but after i tried to withdraw i got an erorr:

I appreciate what you're doing but you need to post more details on why you think a particular site is a scam. You should also archive pages so if they have the same design and they change it, archives could be used as proof. Someone claiming a particular site is a scam just doesn't suffice. Links to their threads on bitcointalk will help in creating flags as well.

I have already explained above that about this site everything has been said for a long time. For any action on this site, a Deposit is required. Also, don't you think it's strange that the sites are like 1 in 1 and created a couple of days ago?

Strangers write to my subscribers and transfer 3 bitcoins on this fake site to them. Asks to help them withdraw. When they try to withdraw this money, site asks for a Deposit.

Here are more
- https://cryptomate.co.uk
- https://fixtradecorp.com
- https://ancebit.com

looks like this scammer just has a hobby for fake exchange websites



Edit:
cryptomate.co.uk seems to be legit and operation and it could the exchange whose website's templates have be copied for othe scam exchange websites.

Scam site https://fixtradecorp.com and https://ancebit.com scam site 100%.

But i think this site https://cryptomate.co.uk/ maybe legit. The functionality works there and it looks more convincing.

Hey, i have edited the post i had made earlier on about cryptomate.co.uk. I have excluded it from the list as it seems legit. You can well exclude it from the quote you made.

Hey @EdgarAlanPoo Maybe you should update the OP with the latest scam exchange websites you discovered like https://mercatox.org/ because i don't see it there and it's becoming serious as mentioned in thses threads
-  Mercatox.org Phishing SCAM ALERT - MEE6bot Discord (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5168433)
- [Scam Alert] Mercatox.org (DT help needed) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5166664)


Also, I see that your images in OP are invalid because you are doing it wrongly
For example in this image link
https://imgur.com/a/O6pcR7A

You included the whole album in the image tags... which does not work as you did here
Code:
[img]https://imgur.com/a/O6pcR7A[/img]
Instead, you should visit that very link, once the image loads right click on it then select "copy image location" or "copy image address" depending on the browser

You will get a link like this(it must have a ".png" or ".jpeg" extension at the end)

https://talkimg.com/images/2023/07/19/nXD5m.png

Then you can add an image tag

Code:
[img]https://talkimg.com/images/2023/07/19/nXD5m.png[/img]

And you get your image posted  ;)
