To trace your investment please send an email to investors@blockchain.info, and in subject put your bitcoin address. The bitcoin address must be the same as you used toinvest.

blockchain never open investment
your send email not from blockchain

only phising mail
only newbie can believe send email about blockchain open investment service

It's defenately a scam attempt, even posting the content of such a mail sounds pretty fishy tbh....

Received also such emails and was already aware that this are scam emails not send by blockchain.info. It's a nasty way to try to scam people and bet they made already many victims.

Other threads about it:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1544768.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1544768.0)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1534594.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1534594.0)

does it sound to go to be true? give me 1 bitcoin and i give you 5 back in 10 days? yes, this is o good to be true. also phrases like "guarantee or money back" are just there to give you a fals sense of security. and why does my personal investment address has some transactions already? fishy fishy! you need to learn to avoid those scams!

Exactly. This is one of the dumbest scam attempts I've encountered since years. The payback rate is so unrealistic that you need to be entirely blinded by greed to believe it. I'm pretty sure that this scam would have better chances of success if it would promise lower rates...

Unfortunately there will still be people falling for this blatant scam attempt, because some newbies seem to think that Bitcoin is a fantastic money generating system where basic financial rules are not applicable.

If you receive such an e-mail it may mean that some of your personal data have been compromised on one of the services you use. I would change my e-mail, user login and password on all BTC services used to stay on the safe side... obviously use different login / passwords for every site.

ya.ya.yo!

Definitely looks like a scam to me, please do not send any of your bitcoin's to any address given to you in that email.

Does this question even need to be asked? That's possibly the last thing the real blockchain.info would ever send to anyone. And for starters there is no Blockchain Exchange.

Obvious Scam.
Investment plans are same like an hyips or ponzi scheme, someone should know this is an scam attempt just by looking at those investment plans.
How a legit investment program can provide 100% returns in just 10 days?

This scam has been about for at least two years.
Looks like our unfortunate
three post newbie has been done again....

Hey, that's a successful investment in anyone's book. Just not for the mindless sap who sent the coins.

Its scam attempt, dont deposit there and be careful otherwise you will lose your money, most likely. Blockchain dont have any "investment" project, and it's spam email.

Of course it is a scam, why would anyone send you back more bitcoin than you sent them, delete it and nevr read again, the problem is that people do actually fall for this shit.

Isnt a scam attemp, is pure scam, if there were a legit way to invest 0,01btc and earn double after 30 days this forum would have a thread about such feature and all of us would be very happy to invest, but there is no such gold egss, camon is the same people appear at your home saying you will get 200k dollars just need to pay them 500 dollars.

Maybe you're missing some for reading the emails, let's try for checking again and i think that is obviously a scam email such as the another people get in the passed month.

Anybody who falls for these scams has to have a IQ way below the avg, which isn't very high to begin with.

obviously the OP himself is advertising his own scam by pretending what he is typing is an email he received.
where in actual fact he is just advertising the address to get people to stupidly send funds to.

reported.

your send email for you not from blockchain
only scamer and phising site

To all who respond to my post thank you so much. I had been starting in bitcoin for a couple of months

so everytime i have a doubt i am raising my questions here. I ask my friends also who has a blockchain account if they

received same email to me but they don't have idea either. Anyway, thank you all

Godbless

Everything that promisses multiply your money is a big scam, unfortunatelly that's what bitcoin is now, a sea of scammers.
People want easy money, that's why they keep scamming.

This is obviously fishing email, those investment plans are fake and you will never get any coin back from them for sure. Blockchain.info have never opened or will never open any such types of investment plans for sure. And also be careful of blockchain.info clone site with slightly different names, you have to check the url and ssl certificate carefully when visiting blockchain.info.
