Title: SCAM cryptoUsd - earn350 and other clone fake Exchanges !
Post by: dkbit98 on August 11, 2019, 01:32:38 PM
Someone reported to me this website that offers you to earn 150$ per day
and I noticed that there are many similar clone websites like this.

Lets start with easy to understand images.

They ask you to send BTC to some obscure exchange
That 'btc grab exchange' is made by exact same guy and I will prove that later.

This exchange is offering unreal fake price for exchanging BTC to ETH,
and you can check now it shows that for 1 BTC they will 'give' you 70 ETH coins.

Regular exchange rate on real exchange on same time is much lower.

You should NOT exchange anything there... but they suggest that you move to next step
and now you should exchange that ETH back to BTC in other real exchange, and earn BTC.


ALL FAKE

This is small record I got from his fake video tutorial:

Thanks to the blochain we know that he made that transaction on May 30th
and this was 1st transaction for that scam fake exchange and for scammer promoter.

Now lets move on.

What does this exchange have to say?
They say ...we are based in UK ..... hmmmm  :P

Quick search on domains is showing something else.

and created on same day on May25th

Conclusion:
They created scam websites on May 25th, and video with 1st transaction on May30th.
Owner scammer is the same and based in Russia, and not UK.


Everything is clear, this is 100% SCAM.

Case CLOSED.

Are there any users posting about these sites in the forum itself that? I did a *very* quick look and did not see any.
But if there are, please add that so they can be tagged with a negative feedback and possibly a flag. Also we can report their threads.

Thanks,
Dave

I did search Bitcointalk forum for this, and could not find anything so far.

Somebody asked me on Telegram, so I researched it

If they are, they get nuked once reported.

I haven't seen this particular example yet, but the "free money to test casinos (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5081286.0)"-scam has been posted many times since December last year.
There's a very basic rule in life: if you have to pay for something that's "free", it's a scam! Unfortunately, greed still makes people fall for this.

Unfortunately people really think they can 'earn' this way,
and yes GREED is what drives and connects both creator of this scam and his victims.

This 'fake earn' method is based on a real method that traders and bots are using
where different exchanges have different prices.
