Все тут ругают бинарные опционы, а между тем вероятность получить прибыль в них больше чем в нынешних ICO. А гарантий конечно нет ни там, не там.

16  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: coinurl.com is no good on: August 20, 2013, 05:10:48 PM
Actually it would be the opposite of what you said..something like:
Build trust with small transaction and then catch the big fish.
I do not think a respectable site like Coinurl would scam for as low as 0.15XBT  so just be patient and give the poor Richard some time to resolve the situation  
Also you wanted to use their service and were give a 0.1XBT coupon so why not use it?

No, for a scammer it's better to catch small fishes because nobody believes them and they are more likely to forefit and give up their money. For example, I will not bother contacting the police for my 0.05 BTC that they have stolen. If it was 1000 BTC I would have contacted the police.

However if the scammer intends to shut down the site and leave with the money they can of course steal from both small and big fishes.

"Poor Richard" has had several weeks to fix this super small issue of a lost 0.05 BTC. If he hasn't fixed it by now he sure as hell doesn't deserve to be called "poor Richard" by my standards. He is just Richard and he should have resolved the situation a long time ago.

I did use their coupon, I turned it into credits in my account. I had planned to use it, but after they magically lost my real 0.05 BTC I non-magically lost faith in their system and wanted to pull out.

Why even accuse of it being a scam when he has given you .1 credit to USE ON THE WEBSITE?

Are you serious man??

No one has been scammed, they gave you credit??

Why accuse? Because it's justified. I've stated several times that I have put money into my account, got nothing in return and now can't get my money back.

I'm serious. They gave me 0.1 BTC extra for my troubles (I thought, turns out it was just imaginary bitcoins that I could use to make a campaign if I wanted to -- there's a big differance between real BTC and those that just work in their system). These 0.1 BTC were extra, I should still have my original (real) 0.05 BTC.

I didn't use the imaginary 0.1 BTC because I wanted out. I deemed their system too unstable so I wanted to take my money and leave. I stated in the mail that I might be back when their service got more stable. They said I couldn't withdraw the 0.1 BTC I got from them but I should still be able to withdraw my original 0.05 BTC. That's why I HAVE been scammed.

[...]

If you actually read this thread properly you will see the guy got CREDITED. He did not get scammed.

The guy asked for his deposit to be processed and why wasn't it processed, so .1 was put through.

Vouchers cannot be withdrawn - Thats a bugger, but at the same time you have just doubled what you were going to put in - Who would complain about that?

[...]

It's you that has not read the thread properly.

I put 0.05 BTC into their site.

I got that. Plus 0.1 BTC extra.

My total balance was then 0.15 BTC.

Then they lost 0.05 BTC (the real bitcoins). All that's left in my account is 0.1 of fake BTC (only credits). I had NOT gotten any hits from them.

The problem is that they aren't returning my original 0.05 BTC to me. I just want out of their buggy system and they are doing nothing to help me. I don't know what book you are reading but in my book that reads a total scam.

I've said so many times, 0.05 BTC is not a lot, but if it was 1 BTC or 100 BTC -- it doesn't matter. A scam is a scam and people must be warned.

Even IF it's not a deliberate scam it's a fact that they are treating me, a customer, very badly and this is reason enough to tell people about my story. I'm glad YOU have had good experience with them but obviously they don't tread everybody kindly and I'm happy if I make someone think twice before sending them any bitcoins -- because chances are they won't get anything for them and they won't get them back either.

Back on topic: To the OP.

So what you are saying is that they made a mistake, and they realize it so they gave you twice the amount credited to your account as a apology.  But you want even more from them?

[...]

Think of it this way.  You deposited 0.05.  They f**ked up and didn't credit your account.  They apologized, and not only gave your your 0.05 credit to your account, but added another 0.05 to "try and make the customer happy."  Why not just use it for what you originally intended to and move on?

That's not at all what happened. A lot of people seems to half-read my thread, assume that I'm just an asshole and then continue to defend CoinURL.

+ I sent 0.05 BTC to them.
+ They gave me an additional 0.1 BTC.
+ My account had 0.15 BTC before I made a campaign.
+ I made a campaign for 0.05 BTC to test things out.
+ The campaign disappeard from their system and no hits were sent to my site. I got nothing for those 0.05 BTC.
+ Now my account has 0.1 BTC and I want out. But they refuse to give me back my original 0.05 BTC.
+ Meanwhile they don't respond to my mails and the guy in charge goes missing.

I hope this clears things up.

[...]
Sorry OP for driving this off topic.

Not your fault, don't worry about it.

Anyway: Bottom line is that CoinURL is not responding to my mails any more and they will not refund me my measly 0.05 BTC.
17  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: coinurl.com is no good on: August 13, 2013, 03:46:10 PM
Firstly, CoinURL is not a scam.

We have been using CoinURL for the last 12 months and its perfect for us, we make plenty of money via coinurl.

We also have had the same issue, with a deposit going missing.

As his developer is rebuilding the verification system related to the deposits function on their website, sometimes richard has to manually approve a payment or he gives you a voucher code.

Just back off a bit and wait for a reply.

I'm glad they haven't scammed you. That's another common scam strategy:

+ Don't scam anyone for a few months. Build a good reputation.
+ Slowly begin scamming a few, always less than half of the userbase.
+ Never scam the big players or the oldest active members.
+ When the small fish complain that they have been scammed, nobody will believe them because most people don't get scammed.
+ Sometimes they even have fake forums accounts to help put out any fire that threaten their good name. Good scammers make sure these forum accounts are old and active to add credibility.

Listen friend, I know there's a possibility that they aren't scams. To be honest I was very surprised over this bad behavior. They seemed very legit and was recommended to me in the first place. I was pleasantly surprised to get the voucher too, a nice gesture I thought.

The reason I am shouting scam is because I feel like they aren't taking this seriously enough.

Money goes missing from a customer's account and they can't get it back in WEEKS? Even such a low amount as 0.05 BTC? And then all of a sudden the guy in charge disappears?

Think about it for a minute, how professional is this? Would you like it to happen to you?

Maybe if they are getting accused for being scammers they will finally take it seriously. Because it is serious.

Even if they aren't scammers people will at least see that they aren't that good at solving problems. Caution is good when dealing with such people.

so, they gave you a 0.1 voucher for your lost 0.05 btc if I got that right?

wtf is the big deal then?

The big deal is that their system isn't reliable at the moment and I want out until later (I just want to withdraw and leave).

But I can't withdraw the voucher because it's not really my bitcoins, it's just a promise by them that I can make a campaign for 0.1 BTC. If they had really given me 0.1 BTC I should be able to withdraw them.

So, at the moment my account has 0.0 actual withdrawable BTC in it. I just want my original 0.05 BTC back that disappeared without a trace from my account balance.

Also having a go at his employees, isn't the best idea either.

And just because richard isn't contactable, your claiming a scam....

Im going to make some popcorn when richard comes on and makes a reply.

Speaking my mind is "having a go"? I don't really think I've treated this guy badly in my mails. All I've done is stated my dissatisfaction, I haven't "attacked" anyone in my mails.

I even warned him about his boss. If I couldn't get a hold of my employer I wouldn't feel safe, would you? Maybe this guy just hadn't thought about it and needed someone to say it.

Also, "just because"? If a major bank chief goes missing, along with some money, is that not a reason to think something might be wrong?

You eat as many popcorn as you like. I'd love to hear a reply from Richard as well.

I'm going to throw these guys on bitcoinscammers.com  I encourage you to update us if this gets resolved

You can put them there with a "warning" notice. It's not 100% sure they are sammers, it might just be that they treat some customers badly and that I finally do get my money back in a month or two.

So... You lost 0.05 BTC, they gave you 0.10 BTC to compensate, and now you're asking for a 0.15 BTC refund. Awesome.

No, you have misunderstood. Understandable since the mail conversations is pretty long, can't expect you to have read it all.

I sent 0.05 BTC to them, it didn't show up in my account. I mailed Richard and he credited my account with 0.05 BTC and also gave me a voucher for 0.1 BTC.

After I used the voucher my account had 0.15 BTC. I thought I had been given 0.1 BTC compensation for the trouble I had to go through mailing Richard, but it turns out that you can't actually withdraw a voucher (so he never gave me any bitcoins, just some credits to use on a campaign).

That's why I wanted to withdraw 0.15 BTC, because I thought I owned 0.15 BTC. After I learned that I wasn't really given 0.1 BTC I just want my original 0.05 BTC back. Seems fair, right? Since I didn't get anything for my 0.05 BTC I want them returned to me.

If I get any e-mail replies from them I will update the thread how things are progressing. As of now my latest mail hasn't been replied to (and of course I haven't gotten my refund either).

Where's my bitcoins?

---------------------------------

Hello, I deposited 0.05 BTC to my account here on CoinURL yesterday.

I sent the bitcoins to this address:

18o4uzXXeGAXDrmGTGzxG6PwRts2PfCPhw

This was about 10 hours ago. It said on your withdrawal page that the address would be valid for 24 hours and that you required no confirmations, I would receive the bitcoins immediately in my account.

As of now the trasaction has had 79 confirmations but my account has not yet been credited with a balance of 0.05 BTC.

Please add 0.05 BTC to the balance of my CoinURL-account ("mikper") or return my bitcoins by sending 0.05 BTC to:

Thanks a lot!

While we're talking, I plan on making a safe-for-work ad campaign for:

http://bfg.swfchan.com/?start

I trust this is okay? The reason I'm asking is because while swfchan itself contains adult material the page I plan to advertise for has no such material (even the ads are turned off on that page). So it should be alright to categorize it as being non-pornographic right? As you can see it is clean.

Btw, where do you set such content-related properties for the ads? I plan on making the ad interstitial but I see no such options to set it as SFW or NSFW?

Where's my ad?

Now when I am logged in and go to https://coinurl.com/profile-ads.php I don't see my ad!

Both active and history is blank. My account still only has 0.1 BTC and not 0.15 BTC like it should have if my ad didn't run.

Since my ad didn't run (is not in history) and is no loger pending (is not in active) I draw the conclusion that you have decided not to run my ad after all, even though you said so during our email conversation.

Please refund my 0.5 BTC that I put into the ad campain that you have denied.

If you don't plan to allow me to advertise the BFG program at all on CoinURL I would like to withdraw all of my bitcoins from my account since they won't be used. If so, please send 0.15 BTC to this bitcoin address:

Hey Mikael!

I have no idea what happened there.  99.99% chance the developer denied it.  Since I am so extremely busy (and I'm not ignoring anyone, I just unfortunately work full time so I only have a couple hours per day to work on the site) I have some employees who work for me.  I have a full time developer who is a real life saver, he is extremely knowledgeable and is continually tweaking performance and adding new features, as well as the main admin for the site.  I have recently hired another mod who is starting to work on the site to approve ads and answer emails, but he is still very fresh.  It just gets to the point where I can't possibly return all these emails, but the site is doing well enough to hire help so that's the initiative I am taking. 

I personally have no problem with any ad campaign that doesn't have malware and doesn't break our frame.  The site originally was set up with filters to allow these sorts of adult material to be advertised yet filtered out for users who don't want it, and I think it works great.  However my developer is strongly against it..  I agree with him that we should be as family friendly as possible but at the same time, there is a massive market for these grey market areas so my plan is to set up a clone of CoinURL on a different domain (which I've already started to set up) that is going to be my "anything goes" ad marketplace. 

I've looked at the page you linked me to (http://bfg.swfchan.com/?start) and I see absolutely nothing wrong with it.  Maybe it's still pending?  I wouldn't fret about if it takes awhile to get set up with CoinURL right now, as we continue to grow we will keep adding services and staff to accommodate everyone.  I don't even mind about the Bitcoin amount, I will happily refund your balance AND give you the credit for your initial campaign to try it out simply to have another advertiser on board.  If *everyone* used CoinURL to the fullest we would be untouchable, but unfortunately we have an excess amount of publishers and a lacking of advertisers so when people make campaigns, there is so much traffic that it eats their balances away and they are forced to bid lower and lower to make it last, all the while getting a fantastic deal for the traffic, it is discouraging to our publishers when they see they get like 1 penny for their clicks.  But, such is life.  We are doing our best. 

Let me know what you want to do, if you contact me when you have your ad pending and I approve it right then, and it's approved, you can add to the balance at any time to keep it topped up without needing to get it approved again, so it is permanent unless you change it's URL.  If there are variations to the URLs you want to advertise, submit a few of them so you have them all approved and you can leave them paused for later.  The thing I like about your page is that it doesn't contain any visuals that someone would find offensive right off the bat. 

Talk to you soon!
- Richard

I will give CoinURL a chance again later, but for now I feel it's best to wait until things become more stable. If you can, please tell me the URL of that CoinURL clone that you are setting up so I can check it out when it's finished.

All right, so Richard is busy but I have the back story of your complaint. So first off, you can't withdraw a gift voucher, unfortunately. What I would suggest is that you just use the voucher on a small ad campaign and we will get someone to approve it for you.

Thanks for your co-operation.

Matt.

Me <me@gmail.com>    Fri, Aug 9, 2013 at 5:10 PM
To: Matthew Boyd <admin@matt-boyd.co.uk>

Okay, but what about the bitcoins that wasn't a gift voucher? Can you please refund them.

I sent 0.05 BTC to you. They didn't show up in my account. I contacted Richard, he put 0.05 BTC in my account and gave me 0.1 BTC for my trouble (but not really, since you can't withdraw a "gift voucher" apparently).

He said my site was OK to advertise via mail. I created a test campaign worth 0.05 BTC (leaving 0.1 BTC left in my account) and waited for it to be approved. After some days it disappeared with no trace, I didn't get a single visitor. The campaign also don't show up in history on my account. Meanwhile those 0.05 BTC disappeared without a trace and my account now only has 0.1 BTC instead of the 0.15 BTC it should have.

I try to clear up this mess by contacting you guys and I don't hear from you from several days, and now when I FINALLY do I get "sorry but we can't give you your money back" thrown in my face.

I can use the fake 0.1 BTC voucher to make an ad campaign later, but to be honest I don't expect much since last time I tried the ad campaign didn't even show up and you just reduced my account balance with 0.05 BTC.

But for now at least give me my original 0.05 BTC back? Those are the real bitcoins I did send to you in the first place that magically disappeared from my account balance after my ad campaign disappeared (I sent the 0.05 BTC to 18o4uzXXeGAXDrmGTGzxG6PwRts2PfCPhw if you want to look it up). Please. The return address is as follows:

I understand your empathy. Richard sent you the voucher as a condolence, he did it for everyone. It it commonly known that you cannot exchange gift vouchers for real money, that applies in all shops. As for the 0.05, I will see about getting that back. I myself don't get in contact with Richard all that much. Also, they are no "fake bitcoins" feel free to use them on a campaign. From what I heard from Richard, he said that you put up a campaign, but it was disapproved for some reason via one of the moderators. He then offered to personally approve an ad of your choice. I believe this offer still stands. Thanks for bearing with us. I will try and get this sorted as soon as possible for you.

Thanks,

Matt.

If this is true my account should have 0.15 BTC, where 0.05 BTC is not from the voucher.

If the campaign was disapproved by a mod it should be in the "history", correct? That's logical. What would also be logical is to get the 0.05 BTC back into the account since it didn't get spent if the campaign was refused (but since the history is blank I guess your system bugged/glitched).

He may have offered to approve an ad of my choice, but he also said, and I quote: "I will happily refund your balance AND give you the credit for your initial campaign". I do wish to get refunded since at this time I don't feel CoinURL is stable enough for me.

I can't believe how hard you make it for me just to get back my measly 0.05 BTC. It's such a low amount that if it was me I would have sent it back immediately. Is this how you treat all of your customers? Something is wrong with your system and you're making me pay for it. Just refund the 0.05 BTC and be done with it please. The time it has taken is ridiculous already.

As I have stated before, I am not in control of any of the money or refunds in CoinUrl, I only deal with complaints. I am trying my best to get hold of Richard as I have a thing or two to tell him so please bear with me.

Thanks, Matt.

That's not good enough. I've been waiting a long time now and are tired of waiting.

If what you say is true and you are an employee of CoinURL (and you are not really actually Richard or whatever his real name is) I warn you about your job. An employer that cant even take care of his customers won't be able to take care of his employees (meaning you won't get paid).

At this time I can only declare for sure that CoinURL is, in fact, a scam and people must be warned.

This is the story of how CoinURL stole my bitcoins. It wasn't that much but a warning should be issued to the community so that it doesn't happen to more people.

Here's how it went down:

+ I put bitcoins into my account on CoinURL.
+ Something "strange" happens to that my bitcoins magically disappear with no trace.
+ The supports tries to be helpful but gives more and more bad news.
+ All of the sudden the guy that handles refunds can't be reached.
+ I'm adviced to wait (forever).

This is a common scam strategy that involves:

+ A friendly face (in order to avoid the customer from realizing that he has been scammed).
+ Waiting (eventually the customer gives up and thinks "it wasn't that much money anyway").

I will post my e-mail conversation with the support. Bear with me since it is a bit long (but not too long if you want to be avoid being put in a situation like this).

It all began after I made an account and made a deposit. The homepage stated that 0 confirmations were required, yet nothing shows up after waiting a long while. That's when I contact support...

(E-mails are unedited, except for changing my name and mail address.)

I would like to add my BFG program to the first post of this thread, under 'Not exactly Free but popular "earn" Bitcoin sites'.

All you have to do is link to swfchan and I pay you bitcoins for each new visitor (IP) that watches at least one flash.
