Title: Bitcoinera.net-SCAM TEST
Post by: CrackedLogic on November 27, 2013, 03:42:24 PM
I'm sure most of you have all heard of bitcoinera.net
and how they give 6% in interest.

I decided to risk a small amount of bitcoin and I deposited into
my bitcoinera.net account.
I shall notify you at the end of the month if I got the interest, or if the
withdrawal worked.



Wish me luck :P


Update: I have received my interest, I will post again for my withdraws,
I want to withdraw a big sum.

Thanks for doing this for the community. It will be unfortunate if you lose your BTC.

Don't worry, I was curious myself.

Its 100% a scam.  I put a bit in there a few weeks ago and the withdraw feature has never worked.  Anyone that puts anything in there will lose their money, guaranteed.

I think they spent about half of the deposits on more advertising to draw in the suckers... :-[

Is there any way you can contact support? You should make a thread showing that they dont allow withdrawals with proof.

Their support is also a scam.  No responses and not a really operational method of contact.  When i go to withdraw, the page just loads for a couple seconds and then goes to a white screen with nothing on it.

withdrawal worked.

Depositing money and waiting for interest to be paid is not a good test at all. Any Ponzi scheme will pass your test.

Even depositing and then trying to withdraw a short time later is not a good test because the operator knows that if he returns your small amount of money, you will follow with a much larger amount of money.

In general, testing a scheme by sending money is not a good idea because the scammer will make plenty of money just from all the people sending money as a test. When his scam is uncovered, he just shuts it down and starts another one for people to test.

Wow never thought of it that way. I did the exact same thing (send a tiny amount, and then a large amount) but with http://pokerbyproxy.com (http://pokerbyproxy.com). Luckily I didnt lose anything (ended with a 0.05 profit).

I can confirm myself that it is a scam.

I had thrown a little into their account a couple months ago now, and yes I got paid my interest, and was able to withdraw the first month(Sept).  As of the end of NOV.  I attempted to withdraw a little bit, and like the other folks here, refreshed to a blank page.  Ive attempted to contact support myself, with no response what so ever. 

STAY AWAY!
