2781  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Description field changes automatically on: August 02, 2021, 11:21:38 AM
I think it's because of the previous payment invoice's description.
If it's for the same address, the previous ones will be added to the history as well.
Yeah, it's actually the same address involved in all the outgoing transactions, but my send tab is clear. Whenever I send out a new transaction, I don't see any previous payment invoice there, and I don't see any right now

It even gets worse in the mobile app  Cheesy
Here is an example of how it looks like

I have emailed their support about the issue and asked them to look into it. I may share the details here if they respond to the email, for purposes of clarity. Let us hope they respond positively for the sake of their reputation.
2783  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet | Bitcoin Casino & Sportsbook | The No.1 Bitcoin Gambling Site on: August 02, 2021, 09:36:18 AM
I am not certain if we can assume that Cloudbet is sinking.
Sadly they are. They used to be so good back then. They would listen to user complaints and make necessarily adjustments where possible. The customer support on their platform and around the forum were super quick in resolving issues.

I think you can also see lately that this is the opposite. Things have been on a downtrend and with that you get to chase away your good customers indirectly.

There have been similar reports on other sportsbooks in the cryptospace. Nitrogensports which was the best sportsbook in the cryptospace presently has a negative trust rating because of doing something similar to a customer. Might this also be an operation to prevent money laudering from their service?
KYC verification may not be the problem, but how they implement it matters. You can't make someone to send documents for verification and then make them wait for days or weeks without any single response to even emails about the progress,
2784  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Description field changes automatically on: August 02, 2021, 09:08:30 AM
I think OP is faced with this kind of similar problem



In this case, all the 2 out going transactions description had "Binance.com" but upon reloading the wallet the transaction description for each transaction in the history tab is now showing "Binance.com; Binance.com"

Now imagine if the 2 transactions had different descriptions like "Rent bills" and "Hospital Bill" on reloading, each transaction description ends up as "Rent Bills; Hospital Bill" which confuses the user if they want to do some record keeping.

I don't know if it's a bug or some mistake from my side,  but it happens to me also sometimes.
2785  Economy / Services / Re: Help me find my BTC and I give you half on: August 02, 2021, 06:46:28 AM
I wonder what motivates these accounts? It's fishing for information, but what kind of information?
Is this a modern "nigerian prince" scheme?
Very many possible scenarios here while playing on the victim's greed
1. Social engineering
2. Possible sharing of Malware to the victim in attempt to recover the Bitcoins using some "tools"
3. Asking the victim to send the money in exchange for the 5 BTC they could recover etc

You won't believe how stupid greedy people can be.
2786  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Idea of Bitcoin As A Religion on: August 02, 2021, 06:25:54 AM
Why would someone even think about Bitcoin in the lines of Religion. Religion is more like a process of brainwash right from the time someone was born into believing something they have no idea if it even exists.

With Bitcoin, you are not obliged to believe if it works or not. It's a matter of choice.... and it's real, you can use it for your day-to-day transactions. It's not like a 2,000-year-old story you have to blindly follow, praise, worship and believe.
2787  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Prominerz on: August 01, 2021, 07:37:34 PM
<...>
Sorry for the loss. I have been seeing so many complaints about them, and I am confident that they are scam or exit scammers

I don't know if the asicminervalue site is credible enough or not, but I don't even see prominerz listed there (seems to be delisted at the moment).
I don't trust that site at all. They have a habit of listing scam mining gear reseller sites. Like right now, there are so many people complaining about CoinMining Central, and they have it listed there as tested.

Sesterce Mining is confirmed scam yet it's also still listed there.
2788  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Manipulation in Binance Futures Trading on: August 01, 2021, 12:00:51 PM
You don’t believe that short squeezes could liquidate accounts that have used high leverage to open their short positions? It’s obvious that small moves in price against the trade with 100x leverage is a quick liquidation.

I don't know if you understood my point. What Binance and all derivative exchanges I know use to liquidate positions is the Mark price because it's manipulation resistance as compared to the market price.

Let's assume  during that time, you opened a short position at $40,000 and the liquidation price was at $43,000 but then a few seconds later, the market price of the perpetual contract you traded spikes to $48,000. At the same time the spot markets across all exchanges that Binance uses to calculate the index price stays at $40,000. There's no way your position is getting liquidated because the mark price hasn't crossed $43,000 during that short spike.

I would agree that people who might have managed to open long positions using high leverage during that flash spike may have been liquidated in an Instant, since the mark price was already low. I have ever experienced such a thing before on Bybit. It was a bug they corrected.


I’m confused. How could long positions be liquidated if there was a “flash spike”, and price went to the direction of their trade?

Using the same example, Let's assume during the spike, you managed to open a long position at $45,000 at market price of the perpetual contract you are trading, and your liquidation price is at $41,000 but remember the at the same time, spot markets are still at $40,000 which means the mark price is already below your liquidation price.

You would be liquidated in an instant before you even blink

I hope you now understand.

Hi all, im just here to confirm, that i was scammed too.  Grin Grin

Its no big deal, i lost 900$, but people should be informed about these scammers.
However small it may seem. It's still a big deal to them. You just made them $900 richer so that they can build more sites and continue investing in their scam. Anyway, it's good to report such incidents here. It helps those who might think about buying from them but first try to dig up and read these threads.
2790  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: coinminingcentral.com scammed again on: July 31, 2021, 09:40:55 PM
ou ask great questions, because once someone is scammed, they usually learn a lesson - but if they are scammed 9 out of 10 times, then the question arises as to whether that person is actually looking for trouble and finds it obviously in unlimited quantities. Of course, it should be taken into account that the OP obviously has a lot of money, because how else to explain that it wastes it so easily...

One thing also catches my eye, and that is that the OP praises one company - so the question arises why experiment if there is someone you trust completely? Specifically in this regard -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228208.msg53916792#msg53916792
He surprised me too. How does someone get scammed for 9 times and doesn't even bother changing the way they try to shop for the mining gear?
When you get scammed that many times, even just 3 times, then just know that maybe the problem is you.

About miningcave. It seems they are not a scam, though OP praising it in a scam accusation kind of raises questions on what the purpose of this post was.
2791  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Golddiamondminer.com Review For SCAM - I WAS SCAMMED on: July 31, 2021, 09:26:42 PM
Sad!

They are scam. If you had asked around. Maybe losing that money would have been avoided.

The site is a complete ripoff from cryptoexperticonminers.com, another likely scam. They even forgot to remove the logo from their site  Grin


2792  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: coinminingcentral.com scammed again on: July 30, 2021, 09:11:23 PM
Also the ebay deals I've had are messed up because they get your money and you wait for the item but it could
be weeks then you go back to give bad feedback and the sellers been banned and you are out.
Trying at that point to recover from the purchase showing receipts and statements to fraud agents.
Like I said, avoid buying miners from sites like eBay, Amazon, AliExpress, Alibaba. Even with the buyer protection. You will still get duped. They will send you something that is not what you expected and by the time you realize. The Buyer protection will have expired.

As far as the Bobcat goes they claimed 8-12 weeks... 2 days to make the 12 week deadline.
Batch 13? at this rate it will be another month
You still haven't specified which site you used. So many fake sites out there, and you might be waiting in vain.

The rule should be to always buy miners from official manufacturer's stores and partners. If the miner is out of stock in official sites. Don't go looking for them in random sites. There's 100% chance of getting scammed.

Thanks for explaining this in detail!! I appreciate it. I have to hold / rethink my situation.  

EDIT: I contacted the support site and have not received any response to my query.
Unless if you already sent some coins to them and were looking forward to getting your issue resolved, why waste your time contacting them?
They are proven scammers and from what it looks, they are not going to come back here after getting exposed

Hello Everyone!

We are here to inform you that we've always ready to discuss any questions you have and resolve all emerging issues.
Three years later, you come to respond to a scam accusation?

So much for your support that is "Ready to discuss any questions and resolve all emerging issues"

I am glad bestchange disabled your site from their platform. You are unprofessional and if OP had provided enough details. I would personally leave a negative feedback on your profile.

I am one more victim of these gentlemen and I am filing a lawsuit against them. My lawyer told me that if there are more people harmed by them, you can contact her for joint action. Anyone interested, please answer me in private.

Try checking out this unofficial telegram group created by one of the victims so that you guys can team up from action against the scammers - https://t.me/minerseuunofficial

You can also contact Niiko Via PM, he's been talking of victims teaming up and looking for a good lawyer

Why would you trust a review site that's filled up with referral links?
It means their aim is not to actually give accurate information, but rather get those referrals.

You should never believe what such review sites say. It's better if you read unpaid reviews from users than can be found in sites like Trustpilot or Google Play but beware of fake reviews too, especially positive ones.
2797  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: coinminingcentral.com scammed again on: July 29, 2021, 06:41:19 AM
It's about time you started learning a lesson, as you have been a victim several times. Ask the community before you send money if you are not sure. We have mining and service boards here where members know legit stores that sell miners.

I ordered a miner on the web on coinminingcentral.com and the price was really low for a great machine, so I had my doubts to begin with.
I paid the fee in coinbasecommerce 1149.99GBP equivalent to 1586.20USDC. I immediatly got a return that the price was an error, and they sent me into a circle claiming I had been refunded but the money never went back into my account
So many complaints about them. I don't trust them

Which site did you use. Is it this (https://www.bobcatminer.com)?

I swear this decentralized coin system is the end of real commerce.
Decentralization means you take full control of your money. If you are just going to careless hand out your money without doing and due diligence. You will end up funding scammers every time.
2798  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Manipulation in Binance Futures Trading on: July 28, 2021, 09:08:57 PM
Liquidation of high-leveraged short positions is more probable in these situations in my opinion. We can also see the same action in the chart when there’s a quick crash, liquidating leveraged long positions. Plus institutions don’t FOMO market buy like us plebs. Haha.
How are the liquidations of short positions possible if they are done on Mark price, not Market price?

I would agree that people who might have managed to open long positions using high leverage during that flash spike may have been liquidated in an Instant, since the mark price was already low. I have ever experienced such a thing before on Bybit. It was a bug they corrected.

Someone might easily confuse your business for transcrypt.eu which surprisingly offers an almost simillar number of services to yours
Why Particularly TransCrypt?

With this kind of feedback, with profiles containing random photos from the web. I doubt I can trust such a service. What are the chances that the "feedback" is also made up?

What kind of project are they going to advertise?
What are the terms of payment and when will they be paid?
What are the terms of the campaign in order to get paid? Post count? Trust requirements?

I can't get people to blindly apply for the campaign, yet they don't know the details. What if the company is scam?

My piece of advice is try to be transparent, share all the details about the service and the bounty company in the OP.
