Title: Coinswitch.co seems to be scamming - be careful
Post by: leopard2 on January 15, 2021, 07:20:06 PM
Hi all

This is about the instant exchange (built into some wallets, too):

https://www.coinswitch.co

Posting this for a friend who does not have a bitcointalk account. He lost a significant amount of crypto due to a stuck swap, he showed me the transaction. No response from support, too.

We crossed checked on trustpilot, and it seems that since a few weeks there are numerous reports like his.

DO NOT USE...

How long has it been since your friend contacted support? 

I think I've used coinswitch a couple of times for some obscure altcoins and didn't have a problem with them--but there was another scam accusation thread that was started up against them not too long ago, too, so it sounds like either their customer service is extremely poor or they're not averse to scamming. 

It'd be so nice if apps didn't partner with instant exchanges like this one, which doesn't have an extensive (or very positive) reputation.  Thanks for posting the warning, OP.
