theorically your request does not enter the program of sub-5k refunds started before 17 of march. It should be taken into consideration in 2 days

lol, there are socks made on purpose. Anyway I am pretty sure there will be (bad) surprises for big account owners...

you cannot anyway, they have closed forever (I suppose for insolvancy)

Dunno if you mean that, the verification involves heavy kyc with scan of ID and even a video saying some given sentences.

Practically, it's a sort of ransom. Not only they have stolen funds pretending to have been hacked, but now instead of refunding with their mouth closed, they are saying they will not give to you the other 50% if you do not post.

All this effort for being trusted by the ones who have not sent IDs, is suspicious anyway.

Well there is no final proof and will never be, but on telegram channels some "bots" who received payments have replied to some questions on how they completed the verification. But again I think for bigger accounts the story will be different. They will ask our mum in hostage before sending money.

Well to be honest some of the first payments received another equal payment.

there are some chances some of those users are not bots. Not everyone using crypto is signed to bitcointalk.

But I definitely think if they will ever decide to start to pay bigger accounts, they will ask other difficult steps to complete. I already have an idea but I will not post to not inspire them   

Well some time ago I figured out there was still millions in tokens in their erc20 wallet. They did not move them. So the loss of the keys could be true.

no moves since then

As it is clear Livecoin monitor chats and this thread, I want to summarize here a list of unanswered questions, in a somewhat chronological order, to put in evidence how crazy this situation is.

-Why "Svetlana Geller" deleted telegram account one day before the hack?
-Why Bitcoin wallet was locked hours (some say 24 hrs) before the hack?
-What caused prices to grow during  "hack" exactly?
-Why, if the server was totally hacked and out of control, it went offline for regular backup on the 23rd December night?
-Why no evidence of real police investigation has never been provided?
-Why a list of affected/unaffected asset has never been provided?
-Why Livecoin has never disclosed how much crypto has been stolen?
-Why Twitter account has never been moved from livecoin.net domain? So they still have access to that domain in reality?
-Why an extremely heavy KYC is required to access the "refund" program? Usually it's required when a third party (officials) takes over the refund process.
-Why KYC is required if we were not verified in the first place to use the exchange?
-Why the first transaction is required? Just a random question to lower the number of requests?
-Why any document ID with a watermark stating "only for livecoin verification" is not accepted? Even if it's not "photoshopped" but only with a small piece of paper for example.
-Why for verification has not been used a third party professional service?
-Why announcement of selling livecoin userbase appeared on the darknet?
-Why the money they are using to pay comes from an anonymous exchange (uniswap). Why looks like they have "laundered" money from their exchange?
-Why have they registered the new domain with an anonymous service "savvy investments" ?
-Why are they hiding like criminals to the fullest amount of anonymity is possible?
-Why they say "we will pay accounts under $5000" and then they are picking smallest balance accounts? Biggest payment $231
And last, the biggest of all questions: why, even if it's clear they will never pay the big accounts, are they doing all this?

these, and probably many others, are all the questions that Livecoin will never reply. And makes me sure no hacking has happened on december. The only thing I really don't understand is why they are making all this "Hollywood" after having stolen million of (our) dollars.

There are many cases of users who have sent all the verification material and received no further replies.

So are you telling me there are people around who have passed the intrusive difficult and potentially harmful verification process for ~50usd.

Honestly things are becoming more and more a joke day after day. An exchange "hacked" who tells to you "do a post on socials or you won't receive your half money".

This is not less than a criminal behaviour. Livecoin YOU DESERVE TO BE CAUGHT AND BE IN JAIL FOR MUCH MUCH TIME.

livecoin you have to work better with your bots. No tx, no wallet, no proof. really?

Yes I was referring to this update.

Until now, no one showed up in forums/chats/socials, claiming to have been paid. And this is very funny, not even the scammers or fake users sent by livecoin to make us send the kyc to them.

Very curious to see if someone will show up with payment received, and how much that will be trustworthy...

If anyone is going to police, try to suggest asking payment processors (for example, talked to advcash yesterday) the livecoin data. But there are many chances they used fake identities to kyc to them.

Looks like this scam was organized since the beginning, or at least they wanted to have a fail safe exit.

The only thing I still don't understand is what they want to do with our kyc and why they asked so many things if they only wanted our identities to do something bad.
If you are thinking "to be more credible" well, they could have been enough credible asking, for example, for the last deposit not the first one, obtaining more replies and more identities to play with.

Ok thanks, hoping they had not used stolen identities like, it seems, they did for creating the company.

So they never completed a kyc in the past?

thought they had a decent volume and I'd not be surprised if they had a spike in volume when the prices on that exchange went to the moon, many users tried to withdraw with advcash coupons if I am not wrong.

Just to start, would be interesting if you could perform some verification on their account. I assume they did a complete kyc to professionally use your services!
Well I'd not be surprised if they verified to you with fake identities...

I can write to you via PM if you prefer,

thanks.

Hi Advcash admin, any chance you can help us with the livecoin.net probable exit scam?

they had advcash as method of payment.

thanks in ADVance!

They have just done the most difficult list of requests they could imagine, to reduce to the maximum extent the number of people making the claim, in order to keep more money for themselves.But at least this makes me think they don't have bad intentions with the kyc, because they would collect the maximum number of IDs with simpler requirements if they just wanted to collect people identities.

the problem is perhaps, what percentage of the wallets do they think to refund, to the small number of users who will do the verification. Of course they did not reply to any request in that.
