701  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [WARNING] SchainWallet Content stolen from TrustSwap on: August 08, 2020, 07:55:39 AM
Schainwallet have stolen almost everything from Trustswap. They have just used different color and changed their headings slightly. Huh. What an cheap idea to steal people's money. Usually this kinda scammers launch their project with high expectations and they think its too easy to make money from crypto world just by creating a 100$ website.

Flag supported and user profile tagged from end. I will suggest everyone to keep them far from this kinda obvious scam. @$crypto$ you can add the flag link on your main topic.

  
702  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM] Hourlyminer.com - Ponzi scheme on: August 07, 2020, 05:42:25 PM
I wonder how many of these website that is listed in the link below are also scam like this one. Hourlyminer is included on the list of reviews on that site.
[1] https://bitmoneytalk.com/crypto-t.com/
Its nothing new for us. Basically this type of websites run by old scammers who want to get profits from both sides. After finding a ponzi project like this one they contact website authority and give them offer to get listed on their site. Usually they take minimum fees for the listing  and give fake reviews to make their visitors believe that these projects are giving profits to their investors.  

Just stay away from them to save your money & time.  

It was quite surprising to me as well. Anyway, seems Hhampuz took down the announcement thread and moved to the Archival. But I don't know how Hhampuz missed their Ponzi plan.
He is managing multiple campaigns together and maybe forgot to check the website properly due to high amount of workloads.  
703  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM] Hourlyminer.com - Ponzi scheme on: August 07, 2020, 08:30:25 AM
It was detected by LoyceV when Hhampuz made their first official ANN on service announcement. LoyceV notified Hhampuz by giving reply on his thread that its a ponzi project. By the way maybe Hhampuz didn’t made enough investigation before publishing their thread. Its just another ponzi project which is offering unrealistic return plans to get some new crypto investors on their website.

Flag supported from my end and hope others gonna take their actions too.            
704  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM ALERT] bitmaiṅ.com is Fake and Impersonating bitmain.com on: August 06, 2020, 06:14:36 PM
Sometime its really hard to find differences between real and fake domain when scammers domain is almost same like original one. Specially for this one i can say that only few visitors will be able to detect this. I think domain providers can change their rules of domain selection and if they don't allow this kinda domains for their customers then phishing attempt will reduce for sure.

Bitmain have large amount of customers and its common that scammers will try their best to make some easy money by creating a website like this. Most concerning thing is that when scammers have the opportunity of purchasing almost similar looking domain like this then their success percentage get higher and hard to stop people from getting scammed. Even in your topic title its not so easy to detect the small dot above (ṅ).

By the way, good catch "Bitcoin_Arena"

Few months? Did you see that our is registered for the next 5 years? https://morcrypto-exchange.com/ please check it on who.is
Registering a domain for next 5 years doesn't mean that you are not going to repeat your previous activities again. I think you guys should learn this forum's rules first before continuing further debate here. I am seeing from my end that you are continiously giving mulitple replies at a time where you don't know how to add multiple quotes in a single reply.

You can't force anyone to change their mind about you. Maybe negative trust is nothing but shiny numbers in your eyes but for this community users its the sign which keeps them from brainless scammers who haven't got minimum ability to make something by their own.    

Our project is still under development, and some things are temporary and are yet to be updated, you can keep looking for errors while we keep moving forward, Thanks
Another false statement after getting caught with stolen contents. Thanks @marlboroza for investing your time to reveal their real face again. 
706  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM] Sportsbet.io seized my profits on: August 04, 2020, 08:39:11 PM
But if you ask for KYC and then say, "you're multi-accounting," without any indication of why... then you're just getting KYC from desperate gamblers for free, and that is completely dishonest.
Most unexpected thing is that some gambling platforms are using the KYC for their own benefit and using it as a weapon. Everything goes well until anyone make a good win but after a big win they ask for KYC. Even after successful KYC submission they block account just by showing a common reason "Multi account".

My question is,  If your platform don't allow multi accounts then why didn't you detected the user before winning/placing the bet. So you guys have no issues if multi account user lose the bet but rules only activate when they win....Huh.

Because I have no clue or I don't know if there is a feature here on Bitcointalk where I could just report this account and not each post?
Just use the report button and write details on comment box. If you can't report each posts then just report one and mention on comment to check that users post history. Moderators will do rest of the work from their side.

Edit - Someone have already given you the suggestion about report submission. Just follow that from next time.

As for the website itself, it was registered way back 2016 as I've checked on Whois. It may be an established site, so I suspect that account was used for "paid shilling".

Maybe some one is promoting their site to get payment from them but i haven't seen anything relates with that on their frontend. You can take a look on their author's  page and most of the authors profile have got no profile picture. 


708  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does anyone know about the Charity to Help Hungry Children in Africa? on: August 04, 2020, 07:49:53 PM
Why do you specifically want to concentrate on African charities, when there are so many people in need all over the world? Also, there are a lot of 3rd world countries with a lot of poverty and health care needs... not just African corrupt countries.  Roll Eyes
Maybe the answer is "Due to corruption African people are not getting proper help from their government and that's why worldwide donators keep Africa on their first choice list". When its a matter of helping helpless people i don't think anyone care about corruption on that specific region.   
709  Economy / Reputation / Re: is it just me? on: August 04, 2020, 07:23:11 PM
I am watching the various cases, by the way, but insulting other people and adding more fuel to the fire doesn't really help.
Yeah,,,It was really unnecessary to create a topic again.  

Don't play the race card though, doesn't sounds right. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but we can't really say for certain that Sportsbet or any other online gambling site are "selectively scamming Russian" gamblers.
Agree with you. If sportbet authority is taking action against some russian gambler for violating their rules then it doesn’t mean that they are doing this selectively. Sportsbet is running their business for a long time and have enough popularity. I don't think they have any specific issues with russian people or taking actions selectively against them.        
710  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Funds frozen at sportsbet.io on: August 04, 2020, 07:05:53 PM

I am not russian and the same issue happened to me. I sent several docs for KYC (and extras, totally proving who I am) and did the Veriff thing successfully. However, they also seized my profits.

You can not be stereotyping here, because this is not about nationalites, this happened to me as well!
Please keep patience and wait for their reply on your thread. No one have rights to seize your fund without proper reason.

I just checked the accusation you created against them and you provided multiple emails screenshots there. From all your provided informations i got that they seized your fund for violating their T&C and if i am not wrong then they blocked your account due to using multiple account. After checking all from their end they sent back your fund and provided transaction link on the last email.  
711  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does anyone know about the Charity to Help Hungry Children in Africa? on: August 04, 2020, 06:46:04 PM
If you want to donate your fund for african people then  Brainboss can be the right person who is helping poor families by collecting fund through this thread, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5252309.0. You will find other options too where many organisations are gathering fund by running charities but as far as i know brainboss is delivering food during covid19 situation.

You can contact him and discuss in details by sending a PM to him.
712  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Funds frozen at sportsbet.io on: August 04, 2020, 06:25:10 PM
I know sportsbet is a reputed gambling here but since there are 3 cases are discussing recently, maybe something wrong happening with sportsbet users.
Recently we have seen multiple accusation against them and now we are getting new accusation on a daily basis. Yeah its true that every accusation have different story and but sportsbet should put attention to their platform users rights otherwise day by day people will change their mind to use this platform for sure.

For a popular gambling platform like them its common that they have workloads and large number of users issues daily but IMO they should provide professional support to their users which may reduce the number of this kinda topics.

I hope sportbet authority will take a look on this thread and OP will get proper explanation from their end. I have already sent them PM to give response here and hope we will get their reply here soon.

I don't know if the shiller is the blog/website owner or was "paid to shill" by Coinpedia?

Maybe doing it for SEO or backlink purposes? Hmmm....
This user have already created multiple topics where he is trying to promote a specific website named "coinpedia". Almost all the topic contain the same website link and it took my attention today on bitcoin discussion board where he opened a topic about an Australian who wants to sell his house through bitcoin payment. I don’t know you have already reported his post or not but i am gonna do it from my end to let mods know about his activity.

After checking post history its clear that he is trying to drive visitors to his own site by providing same website link.

Impressive and fast detection work done by "SFR10". This user is trying to make some easy money by promoting this ponzi on bitcointalk. I have already checked his profile and its a new account. Thanks for revealing their activities at an very early stage. I have already posted your thread link to their ANN and hope community users will stay far from this money stealing trap.

Its a clear ponzi project which is offering unrealistic 100% return for investors. Investing on a project like this is nothing but sending fund to unknown wallet address. Please stay far from this project and check details here, MetricxP2P - HYIP/Ponzi scheme
716  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [ScamAlert] Chamathcapital.com fake 5000 btc giveaway on: August 04, 2020, 09:21:58 AM
This is not good. There are still some who are really sending funds on that address. On the other hand, do you think those guys are really victim?
You can't say exactly until anyone open accusation against them. Usually scammers show some fake transaction link on frontend to make everyone believe that people are getting profits by following their doubler packages. In that case most of the time they make some deposits by their own. I have seen so many ponzi projects who used 3/4 years old domain and its another part of their money stealing game. Most interesting thing is that this kinda scammers know that experienced crypto investors will not gonna show any interest on their platform and their actual target is new crypto users.

On the street you will see those young people are chilling out and have a bucket with strikers of any charity foundation or talking to you and trying to join you to their charity are paid jobs. Most of them works in commission based so more push more money for them.
Yeah,,,agree with you. Couple of month earlier one social media posts took my attention and it was made by an asian news agency where they mentioned that in some middle income asian countries a group of people forced homeless childs for begging in the street. Most horrible thing is that they use physically disable children for this and take a fix amount everyday from their daily earning.

I am glad to read you will never send money to people asking for donations, I would prioritise my own concerns for the honesty of the people behind any project over any people that might be promoted as being in need of support.  
Its always better to donate for the right purpose and you will easily find helpless people around you who are struggling to manage their food, clothes and living place. Atleast you won't have to think about your donated fund spend for right purpose or not.

720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [experience]; In one family all professional gamblers. on: August 03, 2020, 05:14:20 PM
I think for a family like that, I will assume they were able to sustain their long-term gambling activity because they have a stable and strong business or source of income to the point that a loss in gambling can be covered easily. That reason alone makes them become comfortable in doing gambling since they will never bear any losses.
Although we don't know much about their actual source of income but definitely middle class families will not be able to do something like that. You are right that maybe their financial condition is enough capable of recovering any losses which gave them freedom to be professional gamblers. In my opinion without having enough backup fund no one will be able to take maximum risks for optimum results.

Family support play big role when you want to engage yourself in the field of gambling. In this case their all family members are doing good together and if i am not wrong then younger members got confidence and support from elders which is quite rare in other families.
