I got scammed by Freewallet.org for 120000 USDT TRC20. SCAM alert! Don't use th

[mocacinno]

Looks like the user is able to withdraw his money again, he just moved 70k USDT TRC-20 out of his wallet.

AFAIK, freewallet is a non custodial wallet... Which means that the only thing we can see is that freewallet moved funds (at least, i suppose that's how you deduced he got his money, by looking at the block explorer?), there is no way of knowing whether or not OP got his funds unless he tells us.

Never used such dangerous wallet and wouldn't reccomend anyone to do so!

It looks like they just steal coins and act like they are just following their own KYC procedure
As a lawyer I can say, that if I would decide to become a scammer, I would do same thing. Like you like in the terms of service that you can block anyone for KYC. And the KYC may last foerver. And then good luck to try to get your money back.

Freewallet is a known scam. There is no need to repeat that anymore. But I find this whole thread a bit weird, and I will say why.

Blockchain data shows the incoming transaction was made on 10 July. Less than two hours later, the money moves from the address to a different one. Can we conclude that you (n1k_lev) didn't make this transaction but Freewallet did? Frewallet is custodial, they own all of the keys. I am trying to understand why they would move the tokens from your address to a different one. It's not like you can recover them without their intervention.

Only 24 hours after the transaction, you open a scam accusation thread, make one post, and never return to the forum again. All that seems weird to me.

I'm not the topicstarter, so can't be sure. But I've met some info that freewallet often moves coins to something they call "cold wallet". It sounds incredibly weard since cold storage means no internet connection. And if some storage is not connected to the internet, then how can you withdraw your coins any time you wish so?

Since they are scammers and their intention is to ultimately steal your coins, you are not going to withdraw anything anyway. Cold storage means they are storing the keys physically or digitally on machines that are not connected to the internet. Freewallet is a custodial service, so you have to ask them for permission to withdraw your own coins. When they see the withdrawal request, they act on it. Or in Freewallet's case, they start requesting documentation and ask questions until you give up or can't comply.

Exactly. But if you keep something away from the internet then how can you use it in the online service. It's just a lie from freewallet scammers

Like I said, they can, you can't. I don't know how many people have managed to get their coins back after they got taken and frozen due to "security reasons". But if the Freewallet team wants to give you back your coins, they have the means, regardless of cold or hot wallet. Elon Musk got his tokens stolen at one point using this scam wallet, but I am sure they gave it back to avoid further negative press. Many other people aren't going to be that lucky.

Please give me advice on how to act in that situation. I am ready to invest money in that case in order to make their lives harder. Can you propose a legitimate law firm that can take care of that situation? They also plan to make a website about their scam activities. I appreciate your help and advice.

Hi! I found your topic saying that you were scammed by Freewallet.
I have an idea to stop the fraduelent activity

To make this Ive created a website freewallet-scam.org

And make a petition to police to investigate freewallet scammers crimes. Please take a look to its text: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5462119.0

You can also PM me because I have some ideas on how to stop them!
