1  Economy / Scam Accusations / Scam Report WhaleMixer.com - Mixer That Dispense Freshly Mined Coins on: July 15, 2021, 12:00:57 AM
Update July 16, 2021, 08:49 AM
I received a refund from "whalemixer1"


What happened (before July 16, before the refund):
In short:
I used the website whalemixer.com, filled in 3 Output adresses and the percentage for each adress for output, then I clicked on Start Mixing.
Then it showed me the following (strongly censored):

Then I sent the coins to the given adress.
There was no letter of guarantee that is standard for mixers from what my experience is. Thats why I just copy&pasted the given information (above) to a textfile on my computer.
After that I closed the page and shutted down my computer, because as I know and as it was said in the text above mixing works fully automated.
After nearly 12 hours as I checked my outputadresses and I saw that I didnt received my coins.
Then I wanted to check the mixing status, typed in whale code and whale pass and it said that nothing was found.
I went to the topic and saw that another user had the same problem:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5314083.msg57432375#msg57432375
But this user clearified that it was a bug and he received his coins (somehow he didn't say what kind of bug that was).

I sent an email through the contact form that is given on the website with no response.
I even wasn't able to sent PMs to the user "whalemixer1".

In the topic "whalemixer1" posted that I manually deleted the logs.
But that was the first time I read that this is even possible.
I didn't deleted anything.

Then "whalemixer1" said that I should write him an email with the exact amount I sent and also the transaction ID and after match he will refund to the adress where the coins came from.
I wrote him the email with the information that he wanted.
Then he responded in the thread and confirmed that the amount was claimed and that the amount matches.
He said he will refund and then that he did refunded.

But I didn't received any refund and I asked again through email to send me the transaction ID where I can see to which adress he refunded.
He said that he wasn't able to respond to my email because my email adress doesn't support pgp.
I created a protonmail adress and wrote him at first here a PM ("newbie cannot write/receive from newbie" disabled from both sides and after that I was able to write him a PM).
On the website I wrote an email again with my freshly created proton email adress. No response until now.

I wrote LoyceV an PM to confirm and check my problem. He answered this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5314083.msg57461525#msg57461525

The thing is that the amount and received coins were confirmed from "whalemixer1" so that he made the refund that I never received.

I just want my coins back and keep away from this mixer in future.
Also I want the transaction ID where the mentioned refund was made to.
