Scammed with mixer?

[SmartGold01]

This is where people do mistakes I don't know if it was a cause of not making proper inquiries before proceeding using the site or you just welcomed with the .cc instead of the .io, actually mixers are ban here so you can discussed more about it on the other forum that is where you can comfortable. Nowadays what most people does is that they would build a site just as same and they wouldn't mind using Google's to promote it and immediately you typed about mixero the fake quickly appears.

I think I just got scammed out of a few bucks. Last night I was exploring mixing services and came across Mixero, which I've heard about before. The issue is that somehow I landed in mixero.cc, not [banned mixer]. I sent a few bucks into mixero.cc but I have not yet received anything and it has been approximate 12 hours.

Does anyone know if .cc and .io are the same thing/mixer? Registrars are different and .cc is a much younger domain than .io.

How did you find out about this mixero.cc website? Social media? Forums? The darkweb? What do you mean by "somehow I landed in mixero.cc"? Did you visit this website by mistake? Why would anyone trust a website with a .cc domain? Such weird domain extensions are an instant red flag, despite the fact that some legit companies try to use weird sounding domain extensions.
I thought that crypto mixers should be considered dead by now, it seems that many people are  still using them(for some reason). How much is "a few bucks"? I'm glad that you weren't scammed by a few hundred or a few thousand bucks.

How did you find this mixer?

It's better to use https://bitlist.co/ for a list of mixers with official links since it's owned by the trusted user icopress.

It should also be emphasized that there is a PGP checker on Bitlist.co, link: https://bitlist.co/pgp, where it is possible to check the validity of the letter of guarantee for the majority of current and verified mixers.

You shouldn't be using mixer sites, they gain complete access to your funds and your transaction history. Coinjoin enabled wallets like Wasabi allow you to create anonymous on chain transactions without giving anyone else the chance to steal your BTC.

One thing I don't like about coinjoin is that they are very easily flagged by exchanges as coming from a "mixer" (like the terminology or hate it), so they will instantly freeze your account if you send any coins from a coordinator there. So if exchanges or some payment processor is your destination then don't use that method.

Same problem as with some other, legacy mixers, such as Coinomize (unless you use max fees), Mixero, Jokermix, ... etc.

In general, the more fees you pay, he higher quality coins you will get.

OP, use my scam lookup tool on BitMixList to check if a mixer URL is legit or scam next time.
