It looks like some scammers are now trying to take advantage of the gap left due to the mixer ban.
What should be done to users who register in the forum to post phishing/fake mixers?
Are they going to be banned or this is a situation where they just get tagged since it's not a real Bitcoin mixer but just a phishing site?
I wasn't expecting anything less - afterall, when Chipmixers left the forum, every other mixer took the chance to wiggle their butts - they all traded through the gap and unfortunately, that was a huge lose and mockery on CM's despair. The years of competition and monopoly ended, not until the government decided to pass in thorough scrutiny on every single one of 'em.
As events have unfolded in 2024 I think we can say that his cautious decision was a good one.
In due time, we'll be toast if Theymos didn't take that drastic decision!
I've never been against it right from the very first day;I always knew the govern's wanna have control - regardless how they'd go about it...and Yes, these has certainly ruined/slized in halve so many people's little earnings, and more have lost pretty much bigger, but I guess we haven't lost everything just yet
[maybe until they decide how seclusive their censorships would be] Or maybe we all wake up to our forum's domain not responding anymore!
Edit:
Say for example, I said I would sell you this imaginary home for $10k if you paid me the money upfront and then I disappeared with the money, what would the judge say? "Don't be stupid?"
I don't think their criterion for an investigation vindicates cases like this regarding the context; I mean it does connotes one of the federal laws regarding crimes. They could decide to take up the case but, Dude shouldn't be daft to send out his funds for some imaginary Ireland at first!
