Yes, I use Chipmixer and Monero, just like I use VPN and TOR, because I have something to hide, it's my privacy.

Why I tried to exchange ChipMixer's chip to Monero, I could explain, but does that matter?


WHAT DOES MATTER:


  • They have TOS, but if I wanted to settle this in court, which court have jurisdiction? They don't have company, they hide their names.
  • I have found that Openchange lie and hide their identities and use fake names and fake verified accounts to make payments.
  • They are Russians, based in Russia, speak very poor English, but they use, for example, multiple Paypal accounts with American names and addresses. And there is probably more, I'm still investigating.
  • They are in business for a long time, but the current domain is relatively new, because their previous was seized. I still don't know all the details.


Who would send their documents and selfie and many more things they asked to site like this one?

They promote themselves as:

Quote
BestChange.com is a free online service that helps to find exchangers with the best currency rates.

And they state this:

Quote
Every exchanger presented on our website has been thoroughly checked before listing, and the BestChange team constantly monitors exchangers' services quality. This minimizes risks when making financial transactions in exchangers listed on our website. Should an exchanger fail to properly fulfill its obligations, a number of measures would be taken against it which stimulate the exchanger to solve the issue as fast as possible.

Actually, they list only exchangers with referral program and all they care are their referral earnings. If you take a look at exchangers list, most of them are with 0 (ZERO!) negative reviews, because if you post negative review they invite the exchanger to comment and all that exchanger have to to is to click "cancel claim" and your negative review becomes a comment.

Today I have found that there are many exchangers listed there with more "comments" then positive reviews, but they are still listed.

Some exchangers, like Changelly, next to it's name have icon which shows:"This exchanger can require verification of client's documents", meaning that they might ask for KYC.

But when other exchangers who does not have this icon ask for KYC, freeze the money, like in MY CASE, they won't do anything and they will take exchangers side because they are the ones who are paying them.

They have multiple domains:
bestchange.com
bestchange.ru and mirror bestchange.net

What happened:

It was supposed to be instant exchange. They have good reputation on BestChange.

When you go to their site all they ask you is the direction and email address.

I have tried to exchange 0.256 BTC, one ChipMixer's chip, to Monero.

After receiving enough confirmations they changed order status to "Mistake" and accused me of trying to money launder stolen funds. According to their AML bot funds that I have sent are stolen. I have tried to explain them what Chipmixer is and it was a waste of time. They keep insisting on:"Risk of your transaction - Stolen 100.00%".

Conversation was going on inside their internal "messages" and now I can't find all that they asked me to refund me, but it was from source of funds, who sent me, conversations and screenshots, can't even remember everything and in the end KYC (ID, selfie, etc), but most of what they asked I couldn't provide even if I wanted to. It's the first part about source, who, how, links, transactions, conversations, crazy.

Quote
"Risk of your transaction - Stolen 100.00%. You've tried to launder dirty money through us....Refund will be possible after receiving from you supporting documents. Now it looks like you stole money from the victim and failed to launder it."

I kept asking them just to return funds to the same address from which they received the payment. And they keep repeating that they can do it after I send them all "supporting documents"

Website: openchange.cash

Amount Scammed: 0.25598350 BTC ($4,838.92)

Proof of Payment: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/1f393532c18ac21a21b17ea890579a6d071f008400b2c73ced357cd59fe194d3

PM/Chat Logs: Some of them disappeared from their internal messages system (I don't see old messages) and I haven't took a screenshots, but there is a public conversation on https://www.bestchange.com/openchange-exchanger.html


UPDATE:

A couple of days after public posts, threats that I will expose their previous wrongdoings, their use of fake identities and everything else that I have found, and proved them that I do have some info, like names and addresses of their Australian Paypal accounts, that I will report them to every hosting, domain registrar, etc. they accepted to process my exchange after answering a few questions, without KYC, but to keep 10% as fee because transaction is high risk.
So, I got 90% back.

Just to let everyone know, they have at least one more site: imexchanger.pro

I'm finished here.
