Title: MegaCrypton.com is a complete SCAM!
Post by: Crypto8man on December 14, 2016, 09:25:59 PM
What happened:

I saw there is a good rate of Leo coin on the website "megacrypton.com", I deposited 2 times: 0.16 and 0.082 Btc and bought 260 Leocoins.

However I got the following message trying to withdraw:

"Sorry we do not have enough funds in our hot wallet"

I had been trying for few days, wrote to chat, sent tickets but they never answered.

And after a few days they just changed my Leo balance to zero. And still no answer to email neither to tickets

Additional Notes: I want to warn other people not to deposit any Btc to their Scam website, a lot of people already falled for that. I hope this scammer will be banned from this website as well to not promote his scam website

Whats your username?
You do not see our any post or do not follow to our any twitter or FB? Last month We had huge strike(SQL Injection+DDOS) on our website. All has been fixed, But order between strike time has been cancelled due its created via sql inject.
You will only get BTC that you made deposit, not leo as order was cancelled.
If your BTC fund are missing let us know, we will credit balance.

Crypto8man, please post here when you have received your BTC from megacrypton so this scam accusation can be closed, and I can remove the neg rating.

megacrypton has PM'd me to advise of a massive SQL+DDoS attack on their site which resulted in this mess. Apparently it has all been fixed. I do not personally have the time at this specific moment to confirm this all myself, and will look into it tonight. But if you can confirm that you received your BTC, I can at least remove the rating.

Thanks

As we checked, you made one small BTC withdrawal:

Still not received your BTC then  :-\ Keep us posted OP.



I would advise anyone and everyone from trading at live.megacrypton.com until this has been resolved. Actually, I would advise against trading there altogether. There are a lot more trustworthy exchanges out there to choose from.

To add on to that point, you should also probably stay away from LEOcoin.  It's an obvious scam coin.

Plus the founder, Gavin Anderrson, also was advertising a "get quick rich" scheme of binary options/trading, which was really annoying.  Just overall a bad coin, I'd stay away.

If you wade thru the ocean of red ink (fully justified) on megacrypton's trust (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=881707) the only positives you find are from

Unixcoin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=868681): dead shitcoin

Is there a certain time he needs to return Btcs back? So if he not you can ban him out ouf this forum.

Scammers are not banned from the forum. They are tagged as scammers and that is it.

People need to use the trust rating system to work out who is reliable to trade with, and who isn't. In other words, do your due diligence on those you want to trade with.

In the case of megacrypton, their rep (or whoever he is) has been tagged. There is nothing further we can do.

Unfortunately, yes, he can. Scams are not moderated. It is down to individuals to due their due diligence on a person or company before they trade. Sorry, not the answer you wanted - but it is how it is, I don't make the rules.

Do you have the same issue? How much in Btcs?


Title: Re: MegaCrypton.com is a complete SCAM!
Post by: LEOcoin member on December 22, 2016, 04:46:20 PM
I know of at least 70BTC that have been taken - not all are mine, some from other accounts of people I know who trade.

This is pure criminal behaviour and no emails are being responded to.

It's only a matter of time before they close their site,they are not making money from trading at all,because the volume is very low compare to other exchanges,and because of this they resort to scamming all their remaining client,I lost a small amount of altcoin there,but have promised myself that I will never trade in an exchange which is not a year old.

I have now received 2 separate PM's from megacrypton asking for me to remove my neg rating. One PM when this thread was created, and another earlier today.

In the latest PM, he has stated that the OP, Crypto8man, has received a full refund of his BTC. Can you confirm this, OP?

Seeing the number of people complaining about that site lately, I am not sure removing the rating in its entirety is the best thing for the community anyway. It may need a revision, as it would appear that there are other users that have BTC locked up at their site.

Will be keeping an eye on this.

As I stated before, I can't withdraw because of same error message

"Not enough funds on hot wallet"

And there are many people as I see in shoutbox have same issue.

If your BTC fund are missing let us know, we will credit balance.
. their platform is a complete SCAM.  they didn't return my 0.26BTC balance even if you email them or get ticket, I have proofs even conversation on Facebook. Put more negative trust on this one.
