I require help. I've either been scammed or put my coins into a dead website.

[chinesekato]

Bottom line I put around £300 into the coinmixer website https://coinblender.net/. The problem is that I haven't received the money yet (it's been 5 days now). I've tried contacting them numerous times but the website appears almost dead. Their last tweet was from April 1st giving someone a refund so I don't know what I can do.

I really would appreciate some help about what I can do. Will donate if they help greatly, thank you.

This is the first time I have heard of this coinmixer, don't know anything about it but if you're telling the truth and you did send money to this site and you haven't received your mixed coins in 5 days, chances are it may very well be a scam site.

Who told you about it? Did you do any research prior to sending that much money to an unknown site?

I really hope I am wrong and that you get your money back but it looks like you were scammed dude.

[Amph]

why did you put your money there if you know that they are half dead, their twitter being from 1 april should've told you a something

if they scammed you we can't do nothing sadly, next time start with something smaller if you really want to try it, this is the only advice that i can give about those site

This is why you should not use mixers unless necessary.  You are trusting them 100 percent.  They can go out of business and keep address open and hope for people to use it.

I wish I had a good way to tell you how to get it, but it's gone forever chances are.  If they ever redid the website maybe you could get it, but were talking very very slim chance.

[LiteCoinGuy]

your money is gone. sorry for that.

next time start with 5 dollars  

[chinesekato]

Thanks guys, I've sort of come to terms with it now sadly enough.

I went into the situation all in such a rush I didn't consider the extensive amount of research I should've put in. Normally I'm better with these sort of things but christ. I searched up 'bitcoin mixer' and click one on the first page. Such a silly mistake, but only a small price to pay for such a valuable lesson I guess.

My only glint of hope is that the minimum amount of bitcoin I'm able to mix has changed from 0btc to 2.02btc (a similar amount to what I put in).

As far as I'm currently concerned it's lost. I'll keep my eyes on the blockchain and make daily prayers to Satoshi at night.

I never heard about this site. Why did you choose to use this site?
You've likely been scammed.  They use whois guard to hide their identity.
It looks like your money is gone but you might find something on the blockchain to identify them.

Hi I really hope you get your money back.  Also you are doing the community a service by being vocal about getting scammed.  I suggest if you see posts about this site in the future you should mention your experience to save others from getting scammed.  I am really sorry you lost your money.

[chinesekato]

Gah money is only money at the end of the day. I'm just sad that the plans I had for it will be stalled now which could've helped a lot of people and I feel I've let them down more than anything.

Final stupid assumption I made was just taking the website's word that it was affiliated with the company coingateway.net which seems mildly more reputable.

[bitbaby]

So wait, you don't know anything about bitcoin or the likelihood of getting scammed when sending irreversible currency to a random website, and you ...already needed to use a mixer? Would it be indiscreet to ask why?

> I searched up 'bitcoin mixer' and click one on the first page.
Which search engine? Google gives plenty of results, but your site isn't anywhere in the first pages. Even when mentioned by name, by typing in 'bitcoin mixer coinblender.net,' Google tries to correct me & lists 'bitcoinblender.net' at the top.

You seem to have the worst luck...

That's true, I just did the same and that site doesn't shows up on the first page of google and if you search the term it tries to correct it to bitcoinlender. I don't know how you found that site, did someone mentioned you it or were you using another search engine, it might be possible that you have some malwares which is editing the search results to show bad sites. So do a thorough virus scan (boot scan preferred).

And the thing about bitcoin mixers is, you're sending money to a black box and hoping that it comes out the other end, which is why trust is the no.1 factor whilst using these types of services, so next time make sure you do proper research, read current reviews before trying out a site and do that in small quantities to avoid big losses.

[michinzx]

ive personally never heard of that mixer before, your suspicions are most likely true and the site is dead.

[notlist3d]

What made you use a mixer in first place?  And out of curiosity what made you pick that one out of all of them out there?

[chinesekato]

RIGHTEYO GUYS

The trail has become hot again. I've been speaking to a man who claims he owns coingateway, he also claims that coingateway is linked to coinblender. We've been conversing and he says he's trying his best to return my coins back to me. I'm giving him a day before I fire up the big guns. He's able to remove my extra (abusive) tickets from the solution page so I trust him (to an extent).

I mixed the coins because some people buy coins off of me. Any typo I made is a typo.

I'm looking forward to any extra information I can give to you tomorrow. But I think god had mercy on my soul. I'm not out of the woods yet however.

Thank you all for your support. It's been difficult and you guys really helped by giving me the motivation and information to keep digging for answers.

[smiletyson]

I wish you've asked first to the community to gain opinion.

Did the story end happy?  Did you actually get your money back from mixer? 

I'm hoping for happy end of story they do happen sometimes. I hope this was one that surprises me and you get it back.

Awesome! To be honest, I wasn't optimistic about this situation because a lot of users have ended up scammed in that same scenario. Now you've learned a valuable lesson.
