Poloniex scammer?

[mrayazgul]

The second part of the info that the OP provides is that the value of the coin is rising.  Now, how is it possible to make money, scam or not, by blocking someone from depositing coins in your wallet that have an increased value, or any value?

Maybe they are just protecting their site for massive withdrawal happening? But I don't know what is the real score on them really since I've already pulled out my balance at their and currently staying at bittrex but for these many bad accusation against them well surely many people will start to get rattled and thinking upon leaving the poloniex at anytime soon. Hope theirs no bad effects to bitcoins if theirs something bad happen to poloniex.

Blocked withdrawals would be another story, but a blocked deposit cannot benefit the site at all.  Once deposited, they cannot be forced to let go of the coins.  Next, the other member is stating that Polo blocked their 6000 coin withdrawal.  At this moment, that is about $80, but the price is down, let's say it was $100.

Sitting back in their living room, doing absolutely nothing but letting the site run, the fees that Polo charges for TX's, the staking balances and other revenue alone is a nice chunk of hourly change, with zero effort other than site maintanence.

Customer service sucks at all these sites, that is not a criminal offense, it is a fact based on small staff sizes running a 24 hour service and the fact that most of them simply don't care.

Wallets break, wallets ned updates and there are many things that can cause an exchange to block coin traffic from time to time.  A price increase in a coin will cause increased network traffic on that coin on the exchange and on all nodes and wallets

This can be the moment when a working wallet hits a bump and needs anything from a restart to a full re-sync.  This does not mean that anyone is running for the hills with the massive $100 investment, it means that a business is doing its normal work and that issues happen.  Lastly, if they are taking off with these cherished Sia, there is nothing that you can do whatsoever, so yelling, screaming and being all paranoid does not return stolen anything.
