CRYPTSY stopping withdraw locking accounts without notifying users! Class Action

[rascal777]

 WOW,  the number of Hero posts in here is amazing...

What Big Vern really needs now is rescuing by an investor.  Really I don't think it would take even $1 million to get them back up and running.  And the investor would get a majority stake and some advanced cryptocurrency software.

I am very interested in seeing Cryptsy get back up and running, because they now have a ton of hard experience. And I have coins there    I feel bad for Vernon, because I'm sure he has poured blood, sweat, and tears into this, for the trial he now has.   Cryptsy's back end systems are likely quite advanced over other exchanges, IDK.  I've tried to just get bitcoin up and running with an account management system and it is not easy.

I would support them in whatever I could do to help out so that users could retain their funds, up to 10% of my funds.  Granted, I don't have much, but maybe it would help.  Possibly I could make up the loss trading.  Also I could wait longer for withdraws.

Well fuck.... I don't even know what to say...

I found out about the blog post when a customer called me and told me it was up. I found that irritating to say the least....

Again, I never worked with any wallets, had access to any wallets or any code. I ran investigations and customer end security ( like 2fa and getting back into hacked accounts)

This is a really shitty situation. I understand people are upset and have every right to be. I admit, I drank the koolaid and when people told me things were alright, I believed them whole heartedly.  I don't know code or hardware at all, so when I was told it was a technical issue, I had faith.

Now I just look like an asshole for believing it, and for that I do apologize. Since I heard about this, Ive been sifting through dozens of emails from people with "tips" and it is exhausting to say the least. Although I am no longer paid by Cryptsy, I feel an obligation to try me best to help locate coins, whoever may have them.

In the mean time I don't mind trying to answer any questions I can and I know trolls are gonna troll hard at the moment. I'd be trolling too so I can't blame them.

I've always tried to help people since starting at Cryptsy and I find it a real shame it's come to an end like this.

What exactly were you in charge of "investigating" if you didn't have access to financials and couldn't see the coins that disappeared from the "cold" wallet?

I just filed a ticket for the hell of it.. lol HEY I cant trade, dep or withdraw..but my balance is off by 1/3 *gets popcorn* lol

I asked and they said everyone should see proper balances soon. There was an issue with password resets not working and apparently that issue is fixed as well now. Just passing along info Im getting.

Asked who? Who answered? Sure wasn't Paul Vernon by your account a couple posts earlier. Since you're no longer employed, why is the source replying such to a person who's no longer on Cryptsy's payroll?

grasping at straws now man, dont want to come across as desperate. Just because Im not on payroll doesnt mean Im not willing to help try to do anything I can to get coins back for people.

then tell your friend to kindly return the funds he is clearly now attempting to run away with after stealing them in the first place. did i not say to you any claims of stolen funds will be a lie? did that bloody rat jshock and the punk calling himself ban hammer not dish bans out to anyone that even suggested anything apart from technical issues was wrong . has far has i am concerned you all guilty in this attempt to run away with our stolen funds until you prove yourself innocent. and btw why did you not tell us you moved office claiming it was for cost reasons and you did not give your new address then your big bird vulture boss comes out with this pile of shit excuse days after . has of now like i said you are all guilty even those fake female admins you have answering tickets telling people technical issues are blocking withdrawals . so what part of big birds pile of dung fits the description of a technical issue with our withdrawal systems. and what part of i got robbed millions but did not report the crime to the feds because i plan to use other peoples money to make back the millions .oh wait let me remove trade fees so more can put money in . i don't see how this is not 5 year minimum for whoever is involved in this . and something like 10 for big bird. so don't think you welcome here and talk yourself out without providing any proof of your supposed innocence in this crime . big bird come out of your hole.

Dude. You just cling to that hope don't you. You are clearly in the bargaining stage of the grieving process.

Nobody is going to prop up this exchange so Paul and whatever incompetence designed and ran the place can continue living the pipe dream. It's done. The patient died on the table.

It's like when I was in college and my grandmother called me out of the blue balling her eyes out to tell me that her dog died. All I could say was: "It's ok grandma. You can always get a new dog." Anyway, you get the idea, but that's my shit I guess.

BREAKING: FBI has put out an APB for Vern. It is confirmed that he changed his appearance. Latest photo of him.

Dude. You just cling to that hope don't you. You are clearly in the bargaining stage of the grieving process.

I would guess that you are correct, I do have hope! and I am grieving.

[GoldSeal]

Harsh reality. I'm not going to pull any punches for you.

[GoldSeal]

I know it sounds horrible, but I have pets and I love them, I play with them, feed them, and they sleep next to me at night. However, if it's a question of my well being or theirs, I will fucking eat them and not think twice about it.

The greatest honor that you can give an animal is to eat it.

Maybe I had a rough childhood.

Sorry if you lost money playing Craptsy, but signs of the downfall started months ago...

Craptsy accepted an XPY Prime Controller and added pump-n-dump scamcoin(s) on the same day (007coin)
"Someone" dumped 150,000 Craptsy points for BTC
Craptsy, strapped for cash, adds 'sponsored coins' and 'pay-to-ban' for chat
2-3 months ago, Vern went on vacation to China(?) and has not been back(?)
Complaints about stuck withdrawals started 2+ months ago
Complaints got so bad that Craptsy removed chat trollbox (when not logged in?)
CoinMarketCap delisted Craptsy a month ago
Craptsy office in Florida was visited and they have moved out...

Prolly several things I missed, but all the warning signs of MtGox 2.0 were there... I even called them GOXtsy back in November

[bones261]

I will never give up hope that someday I'll get my coins back!

I will never give up hope that someday I'll get my coins back!

So you can keep trading at Cryptsy?

Tell me about it. I lost 17 sprouts in there and I can't sleep at night picturing Paul Vernon paying for his dim sum with our coins.

It took me a year to accumulate those points. As you can tell, I was a big fan at trading at Cryptsy.

Cryptsy's back end systems are likely quite advanced over other exchanges, IDK.

No shit. I heard they implemented wallet remote control.

I was gonna laugh at you two suckers but then I realized I probably have some dust there too because it was impossible to get rid of those idiotic Cryptsy Points. Joining class action first thing Monday morning.

This is a really shitty situation. I understand people are upset and have every right to be. I admit, I drank the koolaid and when people told me things were alright, I believed them whole heartedly.

Yeah I never left coins there. They aren't a wallet service or a bank. That dust was there just so I could chat for a few minutes each day before I got banned. I was AngrySnapper BTW.

Shouldn't a security investigator not accept what people say as being true. I would think a good trait for an investigator is to always be suspicious.
