Title: block.io [ Is Scammer? Has anyone make withdrawal ? ]
Post by: remalrfrence on November 14, 2020, 09:22:25 PM
Hello.

Has anyone make withdrawal from block.io (http://block.io) ?

We have some money there and we want to withdraw, But their system gives strange errors.

The important point is that the support of this site does not respond in any way.

Does anyone know the management there?

Do you think block.io (http://block.io) is a scammer site ?

Never heard that site before, but when i visited it, i just know if block.io is only provide us their crypto's wallet

When i read their FAQ, i found this
Quote
The sender says your Dogecoin/Bitcoin/Litecoin address is invalid. What gives?
Block.io uses MultiSig addresses that require two signatures for every withdrawal/transaction: yours, and Block.io's. This means that Block.io has no control over your coins, and cannot move your coins without your signatures. This also means that in the event that Block.io is compromised, none of your coins can be lost because of just that event. MultiSig addresses exponentially increase users' wallet security.

If a sending wallet/service says the MultiSig addresses at Block.io are invalid, this means the sending service does not support MultiSig addresses. It is very likely that the service is insecure, and outdated. We recommend you stop using that site or service immediately, and contact the developer for comment


They said, they have no control about their user's money. What exactly the strange errors you got? Can you give us like screenshot or proof?

This is why it's good to make a little research before using a service or website as a precautionary measure to avoid getting scammed. When so many people complain about a service then it simply means that you can not trust it with your money or Bitcoins.

I don't know this page. There are secure and solid wallets on the net, why did you want to use this comic website. In my opinion even the exchange is more secure than this website

By searching on google about this block.io site I have pretty sure that this site is a scam and there is a lot of complaints that have presented against this site. So I think the chance is very low near Zero that you will get back your money. Learn from this lesson and don't send any funds anywhere you don't know much about the site/wallet.
