Hello,

I have been searching for a cheap and reliable way to buy bitcoin. I found one service, Bitnake (https://bitnake.com/), which is located in Germany. I  chose the option of paying through PayPal. I sent $100 to Jan Faber (sales.400@bitnake.com) and I have yet to receive the money in my wallet. I was told that I would receive the money in just a few minutes. It has been a couple days, and I have sent numerous messages to their support, but I have yet to receive a reply.

The company, Bitnake, seemed legitimate at the time, and it even had an address listed:
Address: Ollenhauer Str. 67
Germany / Stuttgart / 70184



However, I am now 100% sure I was scammed. I would just like to warn other users about this fraudulent company...Does anyone have any suggestions on how I would possibly get my money back? I have just opened a dispute on PayPal, but I have my doubts about whether this will yield any results.

You can get your money back as you used Paypal , just open a dispute and charge back

Most likely you will get your money back this way
