I can't say for XCOINS.IO specific but generally sites that share this business model end up being scam. I don't see real proof on their website of users in need of loan. But this scheme just deposit and earn will almost sure be scam. I would be safe and stay away from this

Thx for the feedback...the search to find a legit site to purchase bitcoin & one my bank will approve of has reached a dead end. Local bitcoin semmed great until you read all the requirements the sellers require to make a purchase. Take a pic vertical & horizontal, jump through this hoop, now do a backflip...beyond frustrating @ this pt. thx again.

[electronicash]

they do have few threads in the forum, one is here which there were also people accusing of being scam. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1575948.0

i certainly think the site could turned scam as well. if a site asks for money before anything else, it could be true.

[zend7]

Anything that offers you passive interest of 15-30% is an absolute scam. People should stop being so naive regarding these websites. Through their naivety those people are contributing to the scammers wealth and giving scammers incentive to open other such websites to rob even more people.

It has been said many times in this forum but I want to repeat again as I see people who never take notes.

The most sound investment of your coins is to keep them in your wallet, done.

You have said it all. Any site that promise any unreasonable returns with a short period of time is scam and if not scam currently, will eventually turn into one whether now or later. And op, good for you to have asked, I want to believe you have not put your funds there then coming here to ask, because eif that is the case, then its medicine after death. I have fallen victim and I won't forget the experience...

Well most exchanges will require you to do that. Keep in mind, if you were the seller would you sell your btc for someones paypal for example just like that if you know that they can reverse the transactions ? By asking for your ID there is less chance that service is scam

[thebatletbet]

what is bussness xcoins.io
cloud mining or what can get return to member
but xcoins.io support paypal so is problem you can dispute and back your money
all investment online, is nothing plan bussines nothing source income only wait to scam

[magemist]

offering upto 30% is a scam. have you ever heard of anyone paying you that for loaning on your coins?
you must of gone crazy if you think they will do that and survive even 5 months for they're running this long.
companys like virvox ask you to pay 30% for you to pay them for their coins.
so this xoins with wirex is just a joke.

I've search reviews about xcoins and seems that they are not legitimate there are so many users leaving negative feedback about their site. If you look at their website they also offer a loan and bitcoins exchanges. So please be aware I'm not accusing the site a scam but based on what i've read the site is untrustworthy.

[youdamushi]

The idea is not... Bad in itself.

I was looking at the site wondering "why didn't I ever read about that".
But clearly a 1% fee yeah, a 15%/30% is pure scam.

I would have maybe tried it with low interest. Cause the principle is worth trying, but it can be nothing but a huge usual ponzi scam...

[swogerino]

So this site is not legitimate for not last longer which in it's self is the a sign of it being a ponzi scheme.
I was looking into it when looking into getting a debit card to use for the site. But after reading this thread not anymore.

I wrote a fairly detailed review of my experiences using xCoins in the following thread if you want to check it out.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1779678.msg17906839#msg17906839

It covers most of what you need to know if you intend to use the platform...

[LittleBitFunny]

Well when you go on the website there's hardly any details about their actual service, just how to give them money, and that's pretty suspicious.

Plus the layout is the same as I've seen on scam sites before, I think.

Definitely not as obvious a scam as all this crap with promised returns, but I would stay away if I were you, could be a Ponzi.

That's not actually true. They do have a full FAQ section on their website.

Also, a Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator pays returns to its investors from new capital paid by new investors, rather than from profit earned through legitimate sources. xCoins is a Bitcoin escrow platform who charge fees for matching buyers with sellers, providing verification and acting as a middleman for the trade, so I don't think you can really compare them.

[texasbread]

I have used Xcoin serveral times to buy and sale. It worked flawless I disagree with all the fees but its a business. I would not leave my funds on the site for more than 30 days in fear it would shut down but that was back in 2016. I have not had to use the site in 2017 but I can see it is still up amd running!!!

[xcoins-io]

My name is  and as the new Customer Relations/Lending Manager at xCoins, I wanted to introduce myself and clear up some of the confusion and misconception that has spread throughout this forum over the past few months.

xCoins operates very simliar to that of an exchange, where the exchange earns a commision based on every transaction. Like an exchange, our lenders earn a commision with every transaction they complete. This commision does not come from xCoins but rather from the people who borrow Bitcoin.  

In March alone, xCoins processed thousands of successful transactions between borrowers and lenders. With the vast majority of these borrowers serving as returning borrowers, one would question some of the “scam” and “ponzi” accusations getting tossed around so freely in this forum.

It’s rather unfortunate that more often than none, it’s only the negative feedback that gets blasted on the forum. While ponzi schemes are prevalent in the Bitcoin industry, it’s unfair to label xCoins as one because of a few bad apples attempting to cheat the system. xCoins does literally everything in our power to make sure our lenders are protected and don’t receive chargebacks. All potential borrowers must complete a verification process (to prove their identity) before they can borrow Bitcoin.

We have many satisfied lenders who have profited thousands of dollars from using xCoins and many, many borrowers who use our platform daily to borrow Bitcoin that they otherwise would not have access to. This service that we provide is hardly the operation of a ponzi.

I invite everyone to try xCoins out for themselves to determine the legitimacy of this company. We are located in Santa Monica, California, and can be found on all major Social Media platforms.

I've sused xcoins many times. Its a good site except the support really sucks. They don't really care about the customer. I've never had an issue with them not paying me but if something happens your looking at a few days before anything gets done. Like right now i've been tryign to get a response from the support for 2 days as i broke my phone and can not withdraw my bitcoin with the confirmation they send my phone. But i can't get support to respond.

So for the most part its a good site. However just don't expect when something arises to get anything done in a timely manner.

It is good for you to introduce yourself and put a face to the companies name.
And as a representative to the bitcoin talk forum community we now have a person too go to if any problems should arise and we can not get a hold of anybody at the support level for the technical side of things. You are a point of contact for us so the technical people can do their jobs in resolving trouble tickets and just gives that extra level of confidence in dealing with this highly risky payment method to use. Especially when dealing with a cryptocurrency exchange using their payment processing service which is obviously against their own payment system's t.o.s to use with.
As we all know they are reversible up to a long period of time and that is where the uncertainly lies when dealing with paypal transactions for bitcoin.

Hi,
I use xcoins as a lender since 3 month.
I loose my money at this time and I'm sure i receive more PayPal disputes in the future.
I only hope don't receive disputes for all my transactions make by your site because maybe a lot of people are loosing money.
You have say me by your support, the lenders have 50% profit margin guarantee, can you tell me how you do that and if you refund the lenders in this situation ?
Thanks

MagicMike83,

Can you please clarify what you mean by saying that you lost money.  Are you talking about on a specific transaction or overall? 

Because this is impossible with our 50% profit margin guarantee.

For each lender in our system we compute the profit margin, and if it drops below 50% , as an active lender, we reimburse you. 

Therefore it impossible to lose money with xCoins as a lender.

Thanks,

xCoins

Now saying there is a bounty campaign in the services section of the forum.
It is nothing more than the affiliation link given when someone clicks on their referral link.

Hi Jay,

Like you can see, I'm under the 50% profit margin.

Can you refund me the difference for stay up at your 50% profit margin guarantee ?

Thanks

Will get back to you ASAP

I have send you my email by PM.

Please don't tell me like your support, for make more transactions for stay up at the 50% profit margin, because i don't want more problems with my PayPal account.

You say have an automated process in your system for refund the lenders falling under the 50% profit margin but it's not true or your system don't work because i'm allways under this.

Thanks

[MagicMike83]

Hi Jay,

Can you tell me when i receive my refund because I'm allways waiting.

Thanks

[pawsdog]

Customer support for lenders is pretty non existent. There are issues with the software that allow you to get ripped off as a lender. There are credit card exploits that can result in the buyer getting your coin prior to the transaction clearing or being processed. This is not a paypal issue or lender issue, this is an XCOINS issue in that this loop hole exists. As an investor I would likely be careful, accept that it is high risk, that if anything goes wrong your own your own in a big ocean with no paddle. Use at your own risk. You can make a profit, but the risk of getting burned is also very real.

[tamerlatepu]

Don't use this website, you won't get any profit! The only profit you will make is to make them richer and you poorer.

I don't see any profit on my Paypal account, my balance show $127 + $1.54 on my xCoins balance, where's my 15% profit?

You can take a look at my screenshots

Hi,

I am sorry to say but you are incorrect.  You made the correct profit that we guarantee, I believe you are a bit confused.

I looked into your account and saw  that on June 8, 2017, you deposited  0.04679955 btc  to (which was $129.49 on that day) into your xCoins account.  On June 8, 2017 the average bitcoin price for the entire day was $2,799.70.  

Today that same 0.04679955 btc is currently worth $105.14  (as opposed to $129.49), as of 10:13 AM Pacific Time 6/15/17, because the average bitcoin price as of today is $2,263  which leads me to believe you did not account for the price fluctuation of bitcoin .

Here is a breakdown of each and every successful transaction you made, showing each profit you made for each transaction.

06/08/17 07:08    - Transaction SV3KSI8EUL- $4.44 profit from loan amount of $37.66

06/08/17 07:20   - Transaction OWJS4VL5SE- profit $4.64 from loan amount of $39.33

06/08/17 10:39   - Transaction WFSW9OFGS8 - profit of $3.15 from loan amount of $26.81

06/08/17 13:29   - Transaction LVH2TJJTPO- profit of $2.25 from loan amount of $19.24

06/08/17 18:24   - Transaction H25QMOOXRD - profit of $1.50 from loan amount of $12.92

This makes a total of $15.98 profit .  You still have $1.24 left in your balance.

If you absolutely want your ACCOUNT FROZEN BY PAYPAL, then go for it. I have 10k NOW sitting for 180 days that I can no longer touch thanks to LENDING ON XCOIN. Paypal froze it as a violation of their terms of service for acting as a currency exchange. Lend, sell, it don't matter. PAYPAL WILL FREEZE AND PERMANENTLY CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT.


You will get a message like this:

We recently noticed an issue with your account. To see what you can and can't do while your account is limited, go to the Resolution Center.

Why is my account access limited?

Your account access has been limited for the following reason(s):

Jun 15, 2017: We need to confirm some of your account information.

(Your case ID for this reason is PP-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.)

This limitation cannot be appealed.

After speaking with numerous people at paypal, managers, senior risk management folks etc. The verdict remains the same. It violates their Terms of Service, Its High Risk and Paypal says sorry bout your luck, your account is permanently closed. You will get an automated email in 180 days that will allow you to withdraw your funds. Funds minus any charge backs that is.

The hold being in effect so as to provide them a buffer in the event of excessive charge backs. 

Other note of interest when your account is banned you cannot capture funds, so if you have any transactions outstanding that already had bitcoin delivered. To Bad, you can not collect the payment.. You can just sit and watch the frozen balance go down, down, down.. 

This is really stupid as Paypal ruled in my favor on a few chargebacks, which I would think would minimize their risk..

Basically Bitcoin competes with paypal, paypal will fuck you for selling/lending it and collecting payment with their site.

[pawsdog]

It just seems as if quality control in the process of "screening" borrowers is handled haphazard at best. If not handled in a way that would be considered blatantly reckless and expose potential lenders to undue risk.

One of the highly screened loan applicants from xcoins.. Can't believe he did a charge back..

Brandon Robert Kling.

http://mugshots.com/US-Counties/Georgia/Fulton-County-GA/Brandon-R-Kling.152148758.html

Setting the mugshot and long criminal history for theft aside; as I doubt xcoins runs a criminal background check. If I look at the information provided or that xcoins had access to prior to them pairing him with a lender for a loan its pretty obvious that a 6 year old mentally handicapped monkey would of noticed a red flag or two.

First off.

His billing address:  2909 W 15th St, Plano, TX 75075                            Oddly enough this comes back to  Wu Wei Din Chinese Cuisine  (The address is a Chinese restaurant in a strip mall in Texas)

Address on his ID  223 valley brook dr woodstock, Ga 30188-1787           Comes to his deceased mothers home whom died over a year ago  http://www.lakesidefuneralhomega.com/memsol.cgi?user_id=1745143

His IP 174.228.4.59                                                                          This is from Tampa         Tampa, Florida 33622, US


So basically none of his information lines up, not even remotely. I have looked at the majority of charge backs and it seems as if each and everyone there are discrepancies like this. IP does not match ID address, ID address does not match billing address, billing address does not match IP location etc.

That said I think that approvals have been handled recklessly on the part of Xcoin. Especially in light of the fact that their "boiler plate" dispute text for paypal states:

The payment was authorized. The buyer made the payment through the site XCOINS. He/she submitted a photo of himself holding a sign with the word "XCOINS" on it. He also submitted his photo ID to verify his identity. Additionally, he confirmed his account at the site by email. The buyer's IP address was analyzed and determined to match his billing address.

Obviously we see that this is not the case.


I'm just saying that someone over there needs to get their head screwed back on in the right direction and perhaps reevaluate the screening process and or provide some remedial training for what I presume are employees conducting the screening.

[xcoins-io]

xCoins has a very strict verification process, and everyday we are strengthening our methods, we prevent almost 99% of all scammers, but occasionally, as with every business, some get get through.

There were no red flags with this user, and I'm not sure where you obtained the Plano Texas address, as it is not in our system.  Many people can have different IPs if they have moved or are traveling.  We don't have any connections with law enforcement, but we do now look at public records.

In the unfortunate instance that someone does do a chargeback , xCoins has a 50% profit margin guarantee. If you ever fall below 50% in regards to your profit margin, xCoins will reimburse you to get you back to 50%.  I don't know of any other company in the cryptospace that does that.

xCoins members have been making a great deal of profit since our inception, and we have a lot of very happy customers.

Here are some videos members have created on YouTube detailing how to use xCoins and the profits they've made.

Not happy with xcoins at the moment.

The support is low to respond. Charge backs are more rampant now. I am staying away from xcoins until I see a positive change.

Actually as I understand their business model it sounds extremely feasible..
They are not the ones paying the extra interest, they are directly taking it from other users and they clearly state that.
So I don't have a problem with the business model, it is not a ponzi scheme what I am wondering if they indeed deliver on their promise and actually pay the money after it's all said and done

[xcoins-io]

Hey guys, our business has tens of thousands of happy lenders, and some have increased their wealth drastically.  We have strengthened our verification methods, and we also have a 50% profit margin guarantee, which means that if your profit margin ever falls below 50%, we will reimburse you back to 50% profit margin. 

Also here is a video a user did showing proof of how it works:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOTF7hQq51I
