No need for reviews. Pretty sure its a fraud just by looking at their business model.
It works in a way where the users have an overwhelming advantage over the system which makes the promised returns unsustainable as they would go out of business bc they're basically giving out money.
So how do they earn and keep their site running? by stealing users funds

Op has the old wallet of blockchain.com (legacy wallet) so the seed alone is useless as back then it doesn't contain private keys. From what I know you could only get your password through it.
@op, do you still have your backups? the .json file(s)? paper backup?

On initial review of the images made public, they all appear to be dated from February of 2018, at which time Binance had contracted a third-party vendor for KYC verification in order to handle the high volume of requests at that time. Currently, we are investigating with the third-party vendor for more information. We are continuing to investigate and will keep you informed. We believe this is the same data set that was covered in previous news articles, such as: https://decrypt.co/4648/binance-kraken-exchange-data-haul. Hmm... I don't think binance mentioned this third party during the 1st alleged KYC leak issue and they seemed to have only started investigating about them after this current issue broke out

if you read OP threads gonna buy 1000 btc lol I took a look at op's history and wow... what are the chances of a millionaire reading this thread? it's very low so regardless of true intention, they're not gonna find a legit one here. Even if op got lucky and had a few millionaires read this, pretty sure they already have their ways of selling which are more convenient and safer compared to a f2f with a stranger over the internet. It's just so risky when you're carrying a huge amount of money and some stranger knows it.

Hmm... try to not follow the satoshibox standard.
In other words
-get a better UI/UX -provide an optional escrow -allow registered users to leave a review to the seller after purchasing -setup other ways of communicating to your users (SNS, ann thread here etc..) -FAQ page
oh and wdym by "Refunds are not allowed after content has been purchased"? when are refunds allowed then?

By joining Coinfirm’s AMLT Token Network as well, Shortex is giving itself and its users the capability to report and monitor addresses related to nefarious actions like scams and hacks as well as trusted parties such as themselves or business partners. Well, the tool is gonna be of some help but I'm not expecting much given that anyone can just create completely unrelated addresses, my guess is it will mostly catch noobs. But I'm curious how its gonna be moderated and the extent of related addresses detection. also worth noting that some tools are already made available but how they're used is a different story as they are only mediums.

Make a proper thread in Currency exchange with all the necessary details. and lol are you gonna trade millions? with your process, it would be hard for you to get a buyer/seller. Imo, I don't think you should worry too much as f2f transactions generally eliminate the use of middleman. Just find someone reputable in a reputable site and meet up in a public place where there are cctv's or better yet in a police station.

Just do note that cmc's warnings are late so, by the time you see a certain "notice", the issue has become widespread, just like in this case. So if you see an exchange without warning, that doesn't mean its good.
Same with others, I've used this for like two times? before this whole issue and that was it. I have never really considered small exchanges for regular use as they are more susceptible in this kind of acts.

"unknown app" : I get your concern but if people don't use them, how a well tested App with good UI get popular? Giving ppl a reason that your app is worth using is your job. Users are not gonna flock into this just because you put it there for download. If it works that way, everyone should've been successful. I will ask Developer to immediately review all permissions and remove unnecessary asap.
App DOES need access to memory like other apps to save its state as it keeps all your data and API key on device. It doesn't send any of data to any remote server. API key never leaves your device. Anything to back that up? Where'd you find this developer? How did you make sure they're trustable? About API Key: Use of Read only api key is safe. Safety guarantee is provided by Binance and not this unknown app Smiley I've been using other apps with read only key and never had an incident. Trusting an exchange 100% will never be my cup of tea. and the X time I'm using it or anyone doesn't guarantee anything.

If they pre-generated the txid they shouldn't forward it to the user but actually leave the withdrawal status at pending or something. I have never seen a service that I use forward me a txid that hasn't been broadcasted to the network. Makes little sense in my book. It only causes unnecessary confusion. I've never actually experienced it but I've seen a few similar cases here, like this one for example Coinbase pending transaction - No transaction found with the hashDefinitely agreeing with the confusion part but there's also the possibility that it was not intentional and was just a result of their faulty system. In any case, it doesn't make the situation any better.

I can understand the camera but not the storage permissions, why does your app need it? welp. IMO even if the api is read-only, entering it to an unknown app just for that one specific feature is an overkill and not worth the risk.

They gave mi Transaction ID, but it can't be found in blockchain explorer. How is this possible? May be they gave me fake Transaction ID?
They can always generate a transaction (with TXID) without broadcasting it, and if it isn't broadcasted it will never be confirmed as it won't show up in the mempool which explains why you're not seeing it in any block explorer. It's not exactly a bad thing as it's a process when spending from a cold storage. So assuming that coinapult isn't pulling an exit-scam. I'm thinking that your transaction is still in queue waiting to be broadcasted. Your biggest problem is reaching out to their support team 'cause it seems dead. Wishing you luck! also if it isn't a bother, it would be great if you can give us updates.

Hi, do you have something new with Coinapult?
I have the same problem with them. I am waiting about 2 weeks now and my BTC withdraw is still processing. And I can't find this transaction on blockchain.
Did they give you a TXID? If you had looked it up in multiple block explorers (blockchair, btc.com, chain.so etc...), it's probably because they haven't broadcasted the transaction yet. Do you mind posting it here? no txid means they haven't initiated anything

Regardless of who's at fault, it doesn't change the fact that web wallets are one of the least safe ways to store funds as it is more susceptible to attacks. The amount of time you've used it without issues doesn't change anything, no one should wait until a problem has occurred. @op, note that securing funds doesn't end in picking a wallet as none provides 100% safety. Your wallet won't protect you in case of human error which is why adopting healthy practices helps in increasing your security. Take this as a reference https://bitcoin.org/en/secure-your-walletLastly, don't forget to verify your electrum files to make sure what you've got isn't compromised

ye ye, there are risks, possible disadvantages, and whatnot but it's far lesser than cloud mining as you barely have any control there. It is based on trust which is pretty easy to break-- history is the proof. End of story.
also, nice advertisement, that's pretty much what this is for

Is mychargeback.com an option that could help? weird site, they actually support cryptocurrencies which are usually irreversible once confirmed so, in order to get it back, you need the recipient to send it back to you. If you think you have been victimized by a cryptocurrency scam, consult with the fund recovery experts at MyChargeBack. Challenging crypto scammers can be very complex and mistakes can cost you. MyChargeBack analyzes your case and assists you throughout the entire recovery process. I'm thinking that it's gonna be a lawsuit route all over again which may not be worth it if you're gonna spend more than what you lost. I would only jump if it's huge money and there are other victims who are willing to join a class action. Your chances of winning or getting back your money vary too 'cause (it could also be a factor for mychargeback.com in accepting cases) 1. It could take too long to catch the scammers as someone needs to pay 2. even if they're caught there's a fair chance they already spent all your money 3. there's a lack of third party to sue in case of 1 or 2. Lastly, I don't see any of their team on their site

>signature is about coinbaazar >pm is about coinbaazar >almost all posts is about coinbaazar
sure, you're not promoting it

In any case, promoting a blatant scam site here regardless of how subtle they do it will only push away potential victims rather than draw them as users are actively busting scams-- basically what happened here.
as for backlinks, op already did it wrong by not making the link clickable so it's more of a citation, not a link.

If they don't even have a decent website, I highly doubt they can develop a hardware wallet.
and most importantly, there's little info about the wallet so you don't know what you're getting into. The usual red flags which are unknown team, new in the market, faking a review applies too.
