Experiences with CoinsMarkets.com?

[reiniere2017]

I would advice people not to log in to CoinsMarkets. watch the troll-box at the moment. A guy named CoinsMarketsWeb makes
statements there. He claims to be web-developer from CM. Here are some of his quotes:


- our wallet.DAT file had been stolen by 3rd party and we cannot restore the exchange .. We have the exchange at current state because of the current
   threats. i hope you understand and bear with us.
- we cant repair it because the servers have been hacked by russian group of members
- we are scared our team have been in contact with some of the bad members and they have been threatning us what can we do? seriously we cant even
  go anywhere out of the house
- we will be shutting the website on 10th this cant be given on news as it would be a big threat to us. we are trying to communicate to people here .
- On 10th Feb - we will be officially making an announcement on the main News section

I'm not sure of this all is true or that he is a troll but I should be carefull until there is real news on the website.

Take Care,

He is clearly just a troll who tries to scam people for "donations". And he is clearly not a web developer because all he is saying doesn't make sense from technical point of view.

There are strong indications that this guy CoinsMarketsWeb is a troll and speaking nonsense.
Coins have been checked on the blockchain and all seem to be there. Sorry about any confusion.

It's been a month now, in this day and age no migration to new servers takes this long. Let's face it, the site is not comming back. And why should it? As soon as it opens practicly all people will withdraw and empty out their accounts anyway. They know this, so they'll try to string the whole fiasco out untill they can figure out what the best possible scenario is to empty out everyones wallet for themselves while making it seem that they were working on it but in the end lost all data just to be on the safe for the legal side of it if anybody tracks them and puts them in court. This way in court they will be able to proof that they had indeed been 'working' on the site for months to bring it back up which resulted into losing all wallet data in the end. Then after some time has passed or even immediately after, people will see the wallets getting emptied out one after another while they will make sure they cannot be tied to it. The only reason the site came back up is that coinsmarkets got suspicious that some have been able to track them down for real and are now trying to cover up their behinds not to end up in jail. Ofcourse there is a chance that criminal elements have been on this exchange as well so when the courts fail they might take a different form of action.
So don't wait out their nonsense and report them allready or at least take some form of legal action before they have covered all their bases. The whole thing is nothing but fraud. If they were really working, one would at least expect almost daily news about it. Even their first news was two weeks after the whole thing stopped working, now that there sais it all.

it's been 100 years in crypto time

[alphaboss]

Website has been saying "Trading will be enabled in few hours ." for a few days....wtf??? 

[CrustySir]

Everyone chill out. Coinsmarkets team know that they're going to get fucked if they steal our coins at this point. You just have to understand that the coinsmarkets team have always been inefficient and underdeveloped.

Also I really don't think they work on weekends hence what should've taken a few hours is taking a few "days" instead, but saturday and sunday aren't business days.

Except they made the announcement with more than a few hours left in the workweek. And if there's only a few hours of work left for them to do, there's no reason for them to not spend a few hours on the weekend working to get the site running again.

Stop making excuses for these lying and probably scamming pieces of shit.

it was announced before by coinsmarkets.com not to listen to chatbox trolls i wouldn't really care what sort of fake infos is being passed around there.

Sometimes it is hard to listen to what coinsmarkets said. They also mentioned "Only official domain for our site is coinsmarkets.com ,all other are fake , used to steal your data , Pin will be reset before starting site again" at https://coinsmarkets.com/news.php
And the weird thing is same message at https://coinsmarkets.org/news.php.

So, let's conclude:-
Possibility 1: coinsmarkets.org is fake, but will a fake site tell you that it is fake?
Possibility 2: coinsmarkets.org is not fake, but the message said other than coinsmarkets.com, all other are fake.

Conclusion: don't take so serious about coinsmarkets message, seems like I have to believe it is an exit scam now.

[jardine]

I think owners of coinsmarkets.com don t afraid of legal law case against them.

Really, guys, anybody of you know ANY info about owners?
Names/surnames, id number, country of residence, at least?
Probably, not.

They take old guy as a drop and register domain on him (or old guy play dumb and he is the owner ).

So, i don t say, we should not take legal actions, but without any info
about owners first, it will be huge problem.

[Isle of Groestl]

LOL, I cant belive it.  Theres still some that thinks they are going to open ths site agian.  My god, how stupid are you? Ure Money is gone, idiots

You're the fucking 'pigshit-for-brains' idiot.
If you really believe the coins are gone, why waste your time commenting here -
Because you're a low-life maggot-scum with nothing better to do.

Seriously?

They are copying the original site word for word to make it look like it's real. The moment you enter your username and password and pin, they record it. Simple as that.

Really because, I was really angry and frustrated, so I tried to login on the 185.66.140.234 out of desperation to get my coins back. I know it said it wasn't secured but I thought 185.66.140.234 was the real website. Because when I logged in, it took me to the coinsmarket.com secured website. So are you telling me 185.66.140.234 is a fake website for them to steal my username and password?

[Bartier_Cardi]

coinsmarkets.com is a fake site

You can't believe anything you read on the internet.  Not even this.  You may or may not believe what the say on their news link on the website which is supposed to be the only source of info they allow to give.  They seem to be very private.  For all I know, all the talk about law suits is just a scam too.  I'm waiting for the end of February.  If nothing by there is nothing by that time I'll just stop reading all this crap and move on... well, I might check back to see if there's any new  developments but for the most part I'm not worried too much.

Spoken like someone who doesn't have much invested or anything at all.  You can tell who the users are that lost a lot and want their money back.

coinsmarkets.com is a fake site

How can it be fake if even this topic's name contains "coinsmarkets.com". Those that end with .net and .org are fake ones.

[Isle of Groestl]

You're also the same old 'blah blah' bullshit - with bad spelling and syntax too.
Try using spell-check since you spell like horse-shit.

Or, we can tell who the users are that have been around since 2009 and have seen this all happen before.  I don't doubt there is a lot of hurt and pain out there.  I don't doubt that even some of the more experienced and veteran bitcoiners were hurt by this.  I was hurt by this. 

The difference is I've been hurt before.  I've made mistakes before.  No matter how much I get hurt I always come back stronger than before. 

I have learned to always believe in myself no matter what.  Always keep going.  It all averages out.  Win some lose some.

however, I will say that i agree with many who say this kind of thing is why blockchain is not mainstream and will struggle to be viable because of things like this.  Nerds are awesome.  I'm part nerd myself.  The problem with nerds is we are like anyone else with our flaws.  We observe thing through our nerd prism and things like setting up VPS servers for this or that are no big deal.  Or we manage complex security aspects as if it were like breathing air or drinking water when the fact is that the average person won't adopt such madness.  And, of course... the average coin trader doesn't want to put up with what this CM is doing. 

I like to say I can see from another POV.  Anyone on the outside looking in at this would see some monkeys performing brain surgery.  I can't say I disagree with that observation.  CM needs to get their sh!t together to say the very least.  But hey... the same or similar could be said for Nicehash.  NH has come back better than ever. 

And...I liked the unique staking features CM brought to the game.  It raises a level of awareness such as, "wtf are other exchanges doing with stakable coins??"  many have said they are pocketing the stake amounts.  That is also a problem to be worked out.
