I understand now, thanks for the info.  How can you tell if they are banned when it states activity was months after their reporting to be banned?
Since it's my only current option I will post the message here.

to:  stef_stef

I see that the BTC hasn't left this address
  1MJuFBK113sY3ayJRF7gHUnSK7KPKuSBJi
so I thought I'd ask if you'd be willing to return it?

On 5.12.21 I downloaded a virus posted in phoenix miner forum and had my BTC stolen.  The post was from account stef_stef which was probably hacked itself but I see that the account was Last Active:   July 31, 2021 so I thought I would at least try to message them to see if they'd be willing to return my BTC as it's been sitting here 1MJuFBK113sY3ayJRF7gHUnSK7KPKuSBJi since it was taken but I get this warning when trying to message them, "User 'stef_stef' has not chosen to allow messages from newbies."  So my question is do I need to have 30 posts to no longer be a newbie and then I will be able to message them? Thanks.

While it's no small coin XMR has been often reported to be undervalued and it's a more stable/safer bet then a new unknown.

I have a brand new computer just out of the box, with Windows 10 Home. The security is stopping me from running PhoenixMiner. This is so frustrating.

I had to disable "real-time" protection just to download and unzip the file without it being deleted.

I added Virus & Threat Protection exclusions for both the folder I'm running it from, and for the PhoenixMiner.exe file.

I've added PhonenixMiner to "Allow app through firewall" and it is showing in my list of Allowed apps and features.

I've tried turning off "Virus and Threat Protection" and "Firewall & Network Protection" completely.

When I try to run PhonenixMiner as an Admin, I get the usual warning "Do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device?" I answer "Yes" and then nothing, no window opens, no error message.  I can't find anything in the system logs. The graphics card shows in the Device Manager.

I have PhoenixMiner running on 7 other machines and so I'm not new to this, I can't see any difference between the machines except on this new one I'm trying to run 5.6d, and it is Win10 Home instead of Pro.

What am I missing?

Have you verified the checksums match from link on page one?

The above post (from the forum user stef_stef) probably contains malware! Do not download anything from the links in his post!

Our GitHub account was terminated (not a big surprise after they deleted some other mining software repos but we kind of liked the functionality there). Again, no explanation was given - they just don't want to host popular mining software it seems.

Our new host is up and running. You can find the latest version of PhoenixMiner (as well as older releases and beta versions) here:

https://phoenixminer.info/downloads/

As always, make sure to compare the checksums of the downloaded files with these from the first post of this thread. This is a good idea for any download and takes mere seconds to do.


It very much did contain malware as I woke up and found I had been TeamViewer?(not sure) hacked and they transferred out 2.34 BTC (but left 0.27, wonder why?) among other coins.  Don't be dumb like me, just thought I'd share, sad day for me.  There isn't anything that can be done about it I'm guessing?

All in all I am grateful they didn't take everything but it does hurt quite a bit...  the shock is wearing off and now feeling a bit sickly.  
  That is really bad! The best thing you can do is try to check the destination address and if it is in some of the big exchanges, you try writing them to at least block the account of the scammers.

  The malicious post was deleted by the admins without 30 minutes or so, and we reported it as soon as we noticed it. The github account that it linked was created just yesterday. Please, please, do not download anything PhoenixMIner-releated from posts that are not from our account! And always compare the checksums - it is quite easy to do and can spare you a lot of trouble. Additional good security practice is to always keep your private keys encrypted, and not on the same machine from which you are making the transactions.

Thanks so much for the reply.  This is the Transaction ID https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1MJuFBK113sY3ayJRF7gHUnSK7KPKuSBJi
They got more then just the 2.34 BTC, that was just from my Exodus wallet, it's 3.7142388 BTC total.   I'm feeling soo poorly and stressed I can't think straight at this point but if someone could help me get it back I'd be happy to split it with them.  Total was around $200k at time stolen...
These are the funds stolen from my Jaxx wallet:

5/12/21 @ 3:06AM 0.071481382 Ether & 9,389.268794 USDT
https://etherscan.io/address/0x582262ac8f1f9ce2dfdbf5e3acbbe8eb66c19517

From what I can tell it's sitting unspent...  Any help is appreciated but as far as I know I don't see much reason to be hopeful.  Thanks for letting me share, I don't mean to bring anyone else down.

I don't understand what's going on with this exchange. There main priority right now should be to fix all the Doge withdrawals but instead they are just working on fixing other wallets. The bulk of the withdrawals are most likely Doge so that should come first before anything else.

It is this reason that causes many to speculate on why the DOGE wallets 'error' happened during such a high price and has not been fixed yet possibly because our coins were sold with the plan of buying back once the price bubble bursts.  IF they ever give us back our DOGE I'm betting it will not be worth what it has been during this almost two months of non accessibility.

My DOGE has been stuck on withdrawal error for around two months now.  A ticket was opened then and it is still open but nothing has been done.  Whether it's incompetence or theft there is high risk using this exchange that I know first hand.  I have accepted that I will probably not have my crypto returned to me and this is my first post here about the matter as I see no point in discussing the matter with those who have not been effected and I don't see why those not effected give their opinions on the matter.  I'm only sharing my experience as a warning to others as the value of my DOGE lost isn't that great and I've been trading since 2016 and this is the first time I've lost access to funds on an exchange. 

To conclude, I strongly advise others to not use unnamed.exchange with any amount of crypto you would be uncomfortable with loosing.

It's been 5 days now DOGE withdrawal has been stuck.  It has not been resolved nor has there been any answers as to when it will be fixed...

DOGE payouts failing again. Please fix and push them

DOGE processed, thanks

My Doge is still stuck on withdrawal error...

They equally suffer as they make no fees on coins that are stuck and can't be traded.
