As far as I know so far hindi pa. At least wala pang disclosed hacking incident from Coins.ph.

Reasonable naman na mag submit ng KYC sa Coins.ph dahil so far ito lang easy choice natin.

Concerning security, I think secure naman siguro ang Coins.ph, pero kahit gaano ka secure ang isang systema, kung maraming nagbabalak at nagsusubok na maghack sa isang custodial exchange, hindi impossibleng maging successful sila sa paghack kahit sabihin nating malabong mangyari.

I'm definitely not a programming expert per se, but blockchain is just a database. Now how do you get to be a "blockchain expert"? Simply learn programming first. There's no secret to being a on-demand "blockchain developer" without knowing programming in general first.

Probably learn Python from the free courses from YouTube and Udemy first.

EDIT: oh and I forgot. If you're a fan of books, look up Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas Antonopoulos and Programming Bitcoin by Jimmy Song.

Yep. For some reason sobrang common parin ung linyang "safe/secure naman ang coins.ph" kahit historically karamihan ng exchanges, kahit ung mga exchanges na malayong malayong mas malaki pa sa Coins.ph e vulnerable sa hacks. MtGox, Bitfinex, etc.

Para sa mga hindi parin nakokombinseng magwithdraw ng holdings sa coins.ph: https://cryptosec.info/exchange-hacks/

Pretty much ang target audience nitong scam na to e ung mga taong walang alam sa bitcoin, pero probably nakabasa o nakakita na ng mga balita tungkol sa bitcoin. Lalo na ung mga balitang yumayaman dahil sa bitcoin? Yep. Tapos isama mo pa ung kahirapan. Ipagsama mo ung promises na yaman at ung kahirapan, boom. Easy kombinse.

If there's something I'm sure about Justin Sun, is that this dude loves attention. And by having a dinner with such a big name in the investing space like Warren Buffet, this dude's definitely gonna get some publicity in social media and in media in general. I mean, he already has an article from CNBC[1] lmao. I completely agree that this money could be used for a lot more better things though; knowing that Warren Buffet isn't really tech literate.

Hence kailangan nating maging sobrang mapili sa pinag susubmittan natin ng information natin; pag ung tipong kailangan na kailangan talaga gaya ng example na to concerning Coins.ph. Unfortunately walang PH traders sa Bisq kaya di natin matatake advantage ung non-custodial service na un.

I'm pretty sure heavily regulated ang Coins.ph(sa laki ba naman nito ngayon) na almost impossible na maging scam to(unless na gumawa sila ng galawang QuadrigaCX). Coins.ph getting hacked? Ibang usapan naman un. Vulnerable talaga LAHAT ng custodial exchanges kaya laging sinasaksak sa mga baga ng mga tao dito na gumamit ng hardware wallet.

I'd imagine that a lot of short-term thinkers are hoping for a positive comment from Warren Buffet(because ya know, famous investor and all that stuff) concerning bitcoin as to pump up the prices.

Yeap. Would be weird for a dinner to have cameras. The best thing we could do right now unfortunately is to set up camp on these people's Twitter accounts(especially from Charlie Lee as I'd definitely trust him more than Justin Sun) and wait for a more in-depth story on what went on in their conversation.

EDIT: This is what we have currently:

I mean, yea it's just a dinner. So of course they're allowed to talk about almost anything. And it says that Justin Sun gave him some bitcoin, so I'm going to assume bitcoin was somewhat talked about regardless how long or how short. I swear though, Justin could've picked better people like Andreas Antonopoulos to talk to Buffet, but I guess Charlie Lee is fine as long as he actually focused on Bitcoin(and not Litecoin).

One thing's for sure, I really wish there's a video of it. Though I kinda doubt it.

Yeap, though baka unlikely na mangyari un, andun parin ung possibility. Ang di natin alam is kung hindi tumaas ung price, di natin alam kung willing ba mag-mine at a loss ung mga miners. Dahil kung hindi sila willing magmine at a loss, chances are, mag ddrop talaga ung hashrate simply dahil mas kokonti ang miners.

In the end, we're just guessing. Time will tell kung anong mangyayari. 

I'm afraid there's nothing you can do but wait. Calm down though, if you comply with their requirements, chances are, they will give you back access to your funds. Just be patient.

P.S. If you hate KYC/AML like a lot of us here on Bitcointalk, try https://bisq.network/

Yeap. It'd be better to be realistic parin. Sure, pwedeng magpataas ng price ang halving dahil sa pag decrease ng mining rewards hence lower selling pressure galing sa mga miners, pero let's not forget na pag after the halving e hindi tumaas ang price, potentially pwedeng bumaba ang hashrate ng bitcoin dahil na-cut in half ung mining rewards while having the same price, hence baka magmmine at a loss ung ibang miners. Not sure what will happen, pero time will tell.

Welp, unfortunately it's safe to assume that those articles are what gets the clicks. I presume that these sort of nonsense price topics are what people share the most on social media, and, well, here. People sure do love speculating.

Probably not a lot, but my guess that scammers are still doing this is simply because though the success rate is low, if they manage to trick someone, they could potentially get away with thousands to hundred thousands to millions. Basically it's somewhat like a lottery. Idunno.

People don't like reading I guess. 

While I don't know if such a list exists, I personally find it pointless. What people needs to know is that the only legitimate site is Trezor.io and nothing else. It's a lot easier that way. If we do have a list, it will endlessly be added up with so much scam sites as the scammers could just purchase new domains anyway every time their sites gets blocked/flagged. So yes, they would keep popping out out of nowhere.

Not saying that this is a scam, but I really wouldn't put my money on platforms that are new or quite unknown. Though I'm personally against doing copy-trading on "social trading platforms" as I believe that everyone should do their own research and due diligence, if I were to use one, I'd go with eToro.com. They've been around for a while now and they're simply more reputable.

To ensure the safety of your funds in the future:

• Do a factory reset on your phone
• Update your phone's Android/iOS version
• Don't download random apps off the internet
• If you're using Android, probably unroot your phone
• After all these, create a new Ethereum wallet with a new set of private keys. Just to be sure as your older wallet's keys might have been exposed

Optional: purchase a hardware wallet if you got a good amount of money on BTC/ETH/ERC20 tokens.

What app were you using specifically? There's a chance that you probably downloaded a fraudulent app in the first place. One thing's for sure though, I suggest doing a factory reset with your phone, and update your Android/iOS version to the latest version for the security updates.

I think they do react, just not as fast as we wanted to. One thing's for sure though, it's going to need a good number of reports for Google to actually act upon it. Fortunately, reporting a site to Google only takes a few seconds so there's really nothing to lose by trying to report: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_general/

Then unfortunately your funds are gone. Sorry. Make sure to ALWAYS double and triple check addresses when you're sending funds to prevent issues like this. Hope you didn't lose that much.

Not sure what you meant by "ghost erc20 wallet", but basically, if it's a wallet that you don't have access or the keys to, I'm afraid there's nothing you can do.
