Bitcoin Forum

Dear BCT,

You should halt using Safecex immediately, the support is offline which is one guy, wallets are offline and whatever money you send or sell no matter what type of coin it will be converted to bitcoin and moved into their own BTC wallet and there it stays forever, the chat is not working, support tickets are useless people have been waiting for days.

If you happen to be lucky to be able to withdraw your coins do it now, if it doesn't work for you too don't bother with support.

Anyway I am taking legal actions and been able to trace down domain owner from the registrar, I have a friend which happens to know this stuff more than I do, I will make sure to revenge long time for every dime they took.

I am giving them 48 hours to return funds to people and bring wallets offline, otherwise they do not quietly know who they are dealing with, in fact I think what I am gonna do is an over kill but whatever makes me and everyone who got scammed by safecex feel better.

Me as one of ANTI community do not accept scam, and oh boy I do respond and I hit hard.

Cheers and stay safe from safecex!

Was there an exit scam?

They already left the site if that what you mean an exit plan, nothing is functioning, chat is down, auto conversion sucks the money never gives bitcoins, most of high value coins wallets are down, people have been waiting for support tickets for days.

So as I said, take out your money "if you could" as some wallets are running, I couldn't lol so yeah I am not gonna let this pass.

Good to read this from concerned member of the community I will spread this news to my local.

I just don't get it how some exchanges start nice and responsive and treat everyone good, they even assign mods, nice chat than in one night boom, conversion to absolute scam, they are not going to get away with it, about time, I promise, not my first time, and I am currently in the process of getting cloudflare ip login logs, totally legal I know who to ask, if they think a free cloudflare account would protect the server, it wont protect the owner IP, that's not what a CDN is for, and I have been in web development since the internet came out.

Many have said so in the past but nothing happened. The truth is they always got away with it in 90% of the cases. Where is Cryptsy owner now ? Maybe in some exotic island with his chinese girlfriend. The only person caught is Mt.Gox owner which is in jail now, but all other exchanges that have run away, nothing have happened to them so far.

What is it about this that you don't get? They lure in funds and then exit scam...

This is not a good news to the cryptocoin world as most exchangers either turned scam or shut down.
Thank you op for bringing this to our notice.

I have bread crums on there, but a withdrawal just now went through fine.

I agree better safe than sorry and I moved all my coins:

The problem is the facts in ann are wrong:

1. It is possible to move coins out without any problem.
2. Chat working like normal, I checked it again this morning.
3. I chatted to Jaamp about 24 hours ago in Trollbox, for those who does not know Jaamp is the owner.

I do not judge the exchange and indeed you might be right.

It is just a shame as a community member of anti bitcoin (which I quite like) you make statements that are false.

I can't state whether the accusations are right or wrong, but I want to emphasize that this is not an ANTI community driven action, but only the opinion of a member.
And as we are an open community where everyone can think and act as he pleases (as long as the intentions are good), I don't feel like judging in this case.
If it really is another scam, yes they gotta be handled in a destructive way, but as long as it is not proven by hard facts, I'll stay out of this discussion.

Another ANTI dev

TIP: People are able to withdraw if they convert coins to Dogecoin than withdraw in the following conditions:
1 - The wallet of the source coin is online.
2 - Target wallet of dogecoin still online.
3 - You have an account and not using the non-registered services.

Well, another reason to use only large and regulated exchanges. It does not protect you completely but anything s better then nothing.

This is exactly how cryptsy started and we were only able to withdrew dogecoin only though i do not have any coin there at present but i will miss them due to few coin arbitrage tradings that often happens with them.

What ,another Gox exchange ? You should probably never trust a exchange with one support guy in the first place.Secondly,you can still sue them on the basis of their address right ? They seemed like a registered company.

You've found the one weakness all scammers have: their utter inability to lie about who they are when signing up for domain names.

The Internet came out in the early 1980s while the web came out in 1991. You were really ahead of your time there! Quite impressive!

What if they don't think that a free Cloudflare account will protect their IP address because they're not utterly incompetent and unknowledgeable? What if they think that open proxies, Tor, or VPNs will protect their IP address?

My friend which happens to be my lawyer have been contacted by ICAN and he is now filing an internet crime, namecheap turned out to be the registrar and they said they are ready to cooperate if he files, cloudflare is ready to give away the hosting info if also contacted by authorities.

I will let him deal with it, as I said I am doing this for the community "In general" I am no longer part of ANTI because of personal issues.

And because I am gaining nothing anyway from this I will let my friend deal with this, you can cooperate if you wish.

Here is the last communication:



Private communication information not included for disclose policy.

I would recommend everyone who have lost small or big amount of coins on this exchange to fill the ic3 form.

Well, I sure am following this with interest: I have coin on Safecex.

Odd that we have to find that out in this thread  :-\

It is nice to hear that a BCT Community member is ready to help the users who got scammed by safecex altcoin trading exchange. But the thing is who lost their coins they also have to come forward and file the complaint of losing the coins and give the full details and cooperate with law so that like this scammers should get caught and punished , so that this should be the lesson for others to not go for like this scamming.

I got my Doge off Safecex five days ago. It's been down nearly a week now. Will continue monitoring the situation 'cause Safecex is a Dnotes exchange.

I am done doing anything for the community, one of the reasons is the community giving up on me, as instead of supporting my cause which is part of what I though ANTI community is, charity is over and money is my new language, I lost nothing to safecex so I don't really care anymore, I am happy doing web dev jobs in the market and will stay this way, I am no longer retard to work for free, learned my listen thanks to you sir.

If you are going to try and get others to help you accomplish a goal then it is best to tell the truth and make a proper thread that includes proof, structure, visuals, etc.

However, you can't seem to stick with the same story.

1. You said nothing was working, then someone says everything is working fine when they tested it.
2. You said they stole coins from you, then said they didn't.
3. Cloudflare will not give you, some random, anyone's information. You need a court order for this and a judge wouldn't sign off on it because of your suspicions.
4. Reporting stuff to the FBI's internet crime division is like telling the teletubbies that joe smurf called you names on the playground at school.
5. You have not been developing websites since the internet came out. In case you didn't know, the internet came out in the 1960's and is nothing new.

Regardless of whether or not that exchange is in the process of running it is best to come prepared and organized.

Doesn't make safecex legit, like I care anymore anyway, what I have lost is not your business, and personally I don't care what you think of this thread or my story, it's not about me, I am not crying in this thread for my lost money, I came to warn other members.

You'd think that running an exchange would make enough profit that you didn't need to scam - the fees you get paid sustain the fees you pay.

I guess some people are just greedy.

Safecex is down. Goodbye coins.

Do we know that safecex stole our coins and is gone for good? That would be too bad... it was a great exchange for EVIL coin.

Oh well, I cannot complain... my coin does celebrate evilness after all  ;D

Yeah, my prediction was only about time, glad some of you got their money back, those who said safecex is good and not a scam can burn now lol

what should we do then?  ???

yaamp is not coming to surface.  :'( :'(
