1  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Changenow.io illegally holding 440,000$ and not releasing it ! on: July 25, 2025, 06:29:22 AM
Why are people using this scam instant exchanges? There have always be complaints.

Stay away from such exchange.
Stay away not only from ChangeNow but also its Evercode Lab scam ecosystem which has more than ChangeNOW but has more scam projects like Changelly, NOWpayments, Guarda wallet ...

You would feel so fearful about this scam ecosystem after reading.
Beware of Changelly's shitty customer service/possible scam.
ChangeNOW is a SCAM exchange that has been illegally holding my 1.38M Zilliqa
ChangeNOW.io Evercode Lab - Scam. Defamation. Abuses. Threats - Russian Business
ICO. ChangeNOW.io has failed to list or exchange their own NOW tokens.
Changenow.io selective scamming
[SCAM EXCHANGE] CHANGENOW.IO trying to steal my 3 BTC
ChangeNow.io (Evercode Lab) - Scam. Illegally holding of 100 BCH (11 bitcoins).
Scam about 1.6 BTC.

It's a pity and they are getting away with it, nothing seems to touch them and people keep falling for this trap.

Yikes, thanks for the heads up,  sounds like one of those classic scams where they build up trust, then start freezing bigger amounts once you’re verified and can’t easily fight back. With no real oversight and money being so easy to move around, it’s super hard to pin down who's actually behind it. Four months isn’t a delay, that’s straight up theft. I was actually thinking about using changenow  for a mid sized swap, definitely not touching it now. Hope you get your funds back soon.



Exactly this. They let smaller transactions go through fine to build false trust, then the second you move serious money,  they will steal your funds claiming aml review with no end date. Months of radio silence isn't compliance, it's stealing. Keep in mind my cousin sent another transaction, same source wallet and the same destination wallet, it got blocked. He verified the kyc link sent to him and guess what? It got refunded in an hour! the only diff is the amts involved.


I've been doing some digging and unfortunately, this is very normal for them. They seem to have stolen from so many people, there are so many complaints about changenow and changelly all over reddit and other review sites. You may want to escalate via other means because these people are relentless scammers.

Some have done good reports but have not communicated their username, they can still contact us via PM if necessary.

Following our last post, we received numerous PMs.

We confirm that we will answer to everyone in the coming days, we need time to do the necessary checks.

I can understand how people could have missed this. Personally, I didn’t see the email on time because I receive a lot of emails daily and was relying on the first post in this thread for any important updates. I’m not blaming you, but if the original post had been updated to ask us to email you our usernames, the situation might have been avoided.

Honestly, i used to think address poisoning was just some niche thing? it’s a wake up call. What really gets me is how subtle these scams are. Like, someone sends a few sats from a fake but nearly identical address, and next thing you know, you’re accidentally sending real funds to the wrong place. That's terrifying.

It hits different when you hear that someone’s friend actually lost funds because of this exact trick. Makes you realize how easy it is to slip up. and sure, triple checking an address might feel tedious, but it's worth it if it saves you from losing real money.

Seriously can’t afford to get too comfy out here. Whether it’s clipboard hijacking or address poisoning, the scams are evolving. Gotta stay sharp.

10  Economy / Gambling / Re: FORTUNEJACK.COM | Ongoing lawsuit, 120k usd stolen | Shady practices on: March 04, 2025, 06:02:14 PM
I won the lawsuit, though only to get about 85% of the amount I claimed initially (plus interest and fees…). I won’t be giving any further details for now.
Congratulations, hopefully they pay up. Keep us posted!

I think most people would give up if in your place, and that is one way how dirty casinos like fj are earning extra money.
Dirty indeed. i wouldn’t deposit a cent into any unregulated crypto casino. Its scary whats happening out there, including with the reputable ones.

They took the bet and should have paid up. i imagine they wouldn’t have refunded the op if he had lost the bet.

This will encourage more players to not be afraid of suing. of course, not everyone has the op's resources and patience.
11  Economy / Gambling / Re: FORTUNEJACK.COM | Ongoing lawsuit, 120k usd stolen | Shady practices on: February 12, 2025, 09:32:46 AM
After many times postponing judgment, now it’s postponed until 24th if February. Though according to my lawyer, due to some circumstances, this should be the last time

After reading both threads, you may want to revise your options and sue them in France instead, assuming you sued them at all. Your Curacao lawyer is wrong, don't take my word for it, though, do your own research or get a second opinion. Just like any other profession, there are good and bad lawyers.

You can sue them and their licensor in France. You have to understand how the legal system in Curacao works. it is to their benefit to drag this out as long as possible. Even if they eventually pass a favorable judgment, they cannot enforce it.

The worst case scenario for Fortunejack is that they will have their license pulled, but for them, the cost of the license is only a fraction of the amount you are suing them for. It would be cheaper for them not to pay and simply obtain another license, perhaps in Costa Rica, which would be even less expensive.

The moral of the story is not to bet at shady casinos with questionable licenses. I hope you find resolution, though I doubt it will happen. Kudos for fighting back.

One more thing, it wouldn't hurt to present some evidence. Some of us are genuinely interested in how this pans out. You shouldn't allow the actions of a few posters to dictate your behavior, unless this is advice from your lawyer.

Court cases do not need to be a secret. Sure, they can gag you from saying certain things in public while the case is ongoing, but details such as the general nature of the suit should not be a problem. I want to believe you as I don't see any reason why you’d lie, except maybe to save face.

You’re mistaken, OP. Amazingly, the coins have not been moved and are still in the wallet.

Could this all be a big misunderstanding?

It's disheartening to see how betcoin is handling this situation, especially when transparency and fairness should be paramount in any dispute. The lack of communication from them, as mentioned, is indeed concerning and raises questions about their integrity..

These are serious accusations that need thorough investigation. It is only fair that the community and other potential victims be made aware of these practices.

For betcoin, sharing the evidence of alleged fraudulent activities would demonstrate transparency and could help clear up any misunderstandings. This would benefit not only the parties involved but also restore trust among users.

Let's hope for a fair resolution soon.

16  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: Buying Skrill $100+, Paying with Btc/Bch on: October 11, 2020, 11:00:07 AM
An escrow would be helpful if both parties refuse to go first, but aside from that, it's useless since the payment method (Skrill) is reversible.

Have you seen Shasan's thread? If not, then I suggest you reach out to him, he's trusted: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5102555.0

Thanks, but only as a last resort. Their fees are kinda high for me.

I'm still still buying. I need between $500 - $1000 weekly.

Ps: For those asking via telegram I will only use escrow from this list:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2439910.0

I will cover all the fees, and if you contact me via Tele, please expect that we will conclude any transaction on this forum.
