Hitbtc.com is not just and fair

1. The amount involved is big : about R1.6 million($1:R12.61)
2. They were supposed to respond to your query quickly and verify you with other means not only the email link
3. When you posted this, it took about 2 hours to get a defending response why was that not done when you first lodged your query?
4. I have been reading a list of complaints from various people complaining about hitbtc.com especially waiting 4 to 5 days without support, why hitbtc why?
5. Exchanges exist and strive due to traders and their security systems no matter how good should not prevent honest traders from getting their money because of 1 error email link

If this has not been solved, I join all scammed traders and say to new traders: stay away from this hitbtc please. At least share solidarity with victims because who knows tomorrow it might be you. You will need every body's help to see justice done.

Did you know traders have massive power, just use social media and also support hitbtc competitors until hitbtc close, yes until hitbtc close. Scammed people unite! Never trust anyone even these unscrupulous greedy scammers!

Waiting to see if you will get back what belongs to you. Please let all of us here know, hitbtc have solved your matter to your satisfaction and if not, keep posting here and we will keep the pressure. No you cannot lose such a big amount because of just an email link when you can log and trade in your account. This is daylight robbery. It is a shame people are trapped so easily.

Hitbtc is controlled by the US fbi just like localbitcoins.com is .I have proof about localbitcoins.com being controlled by the fbi from them threatening me for moving so much money there to them even sending fotos of their fbi badge. Hitbtc is another part of their elitist scam just like localbitcoin.com where their agents have bulletproof account you can not leave bad feedback for the us government agents on localbitcoins.com it is a conspiracy. Also hitbtc is controlled by the illuminatti and the fbi, they can rob and have been robbing for 4 years from people and nothing happens because they are with the elite at the high level.In a real system, governments would close companies like these but because it is  a big lie they let is keep going. Dont worry about alqaeda and isis worry about their owners, the Us govt.

Hello,

I think you have been reading too much Above top-secret, Godlike productions, etc all these things you talk about eg. The Illuminati this, the Illuminati that, the freemasons..... are things that I used to read on the conspiracy sites never took them seriously and was more as a hobby to kill time reading interesting things people tends to invent out of the top of their overactive imagination, but let me tell you this, I never found a single concrete proof that backs any of these conspiracies posts I read about.  About the Illuminati, I think the only thing I was able to find about was that they were an old religious fraternity or something like that from around the year 1500's but I don't think they are relevant or exist today and about the Freemasons? Well I know they exists because when I was walking by I think 20th to 23rd Street I stumbled upon a building that read "Free and Proud Freemasons of New York" well something like that, so they clearly exists as an organization, further research by me reveals that their mission is to make the world a better place than how they (the members) found it, well that doesn't seem to "evil" to me, that's a perfectly good goal on my watch.  So, I suggest you try to verify the claims of each conspiracy stories you read, because not everything you see on the internet is real.

Aside from that, I am interested to know if you were able to get your issue resolved?  Was planning on engaging on some arbitrage opportunities between HitBTC and some other exchanges but after reading your OP I guess that would be a no, but I am still on the fence whether they are truly a scammers, or if the email issue is the only issue at play here.   

Pro tip: always make sure your email address is up to date on all of your exchange.  Here's what you DHOULD have done first:. Checkk what email address is on your HitBTC file, can't access it? No worries attempt to change it, can't? Contact support and see if they can change it for you, not possible?  Assuming the account had zero balance, dump the account, erase all HitBTC cookies from your browser to prevent session based recognition and then create a branch new HitBTC account, you could even take it a bit further and force an IP address change from you ISP's modem (by changingWAN MAC address of router and then power cycling cable modem, release and renew IP of FIOS Router, etc) before creating your new HitBTC account with your active valid email address.  And then you PROBAVLY wouldn't have a problem trying to do the exchange you tried to do.

Personally what would I have done in your shoes?  I would have applied my trust to a most trusting exchange, like for example Bittrex.  Bittrex is as official as official can get, they own a BitLicense that got approved and accepted, are able to service New Yorkers (like myself) not all exchanges have such luxuries, not even Kraken or even the supposedly #1 exchange by volume, Poloniex.  Yes Bittrex requires ID verification which could be a bit inconvenient and is a fair trade off if you want to have SOME peace of mind that your cryptos just won't disappeared from your trading account or they would just run away with all user's fund.  That bitlicense forces Bittrex to hold itself at a high standard, they have to follow regulations and follow security best practice for the industry they engage in.  For the amount of crypto you were engaging in maybe you should have lended your trust to Bittrex.

Disclaimer:. I can only talk about Bittrex because that's what I use and what I am willing to lend my trust when dealing with a large amount of cryptos, but there are other exchanges too following regulation and even with a BitLicense such as Gemini, Coinbase, etc that you can explore to your consideration.

I was just in the process of joining HitBTC and thought I would do some reviews and came across these posts. I therefore done more digging only to discover that the owners of HitBTC (HIT Solution Ltd) as per https://hitbtc.com/legal-information and https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/09239668/officers has dissolved this company. This company should therefore not be trading and taking peoples money.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS IT IS NOT A LEGAL TRADING ENTITY!!

[randyshan]

Good to know and sorry for your potential loss. Thanks for posting.

daniel 12:10

I feel sorry for you fools who make fun of people who believe in the illuminati but because you are wicked and you also have demons you will NEVER understand.that is the curse you sinners live under never being able to see the truth because of the demonic opression you have.I have personally done 2 exorcism and demons live in billions of people and keep them looking at porn, praying to the virgin mary and other destructive activities so these souls will go to hell and hate their creator.People who have demons seem to be perfectly normal until you lay them on the couch and start praying against demons in Jesus name and 30 seconds later you see what happens.you will not know when someone has demons. The illuminatti is more real than you.They are the ones responsible for 9 11 in new york and the creation of ufos to deceive the world after the rapture, the fake moon landing and many other things.You may feel comfortable to be a ostrich hiding your head in the sand hating and avoiding the truth but the truth is here to save you, if you can overcome the evil that is trapping your mind you can become a born again Christian, NOT CATHOLIC, and escape the fate that is awaiting soon many billions of loosers

I heard nothing but bad thing about them , so i never use them . But i expect a lot of new exchanges to pop-up with all the new users the standard exchanges are experiencing.

[gizmodo1987]

Im planning to transfer some of my coins at hitbtc as one of the ICO I join hitbtc will be their first exchange site. So I made a research about hitbtc and found so much negative reviews about this exchange.

Here is an update on the ongoing scams - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2790685.msg28531923#msg28531923

Has this issue been resolved? I think losing one's access to email is "reasonable" and it's unreasonable to lost tons of  money just because of that.

Especially if the email address no longer exist.

[HitbtcSCAM]

no not resolved

[yohananaomi]

yesterday i try hitbtc with low quantity of $

at the moment all works, i receive my money back.. i dont know if legit or not

i try with 100$

I have to confess and tell you about HitBtc, I'm having some trouble transactions with various transactions.
but it can be solved the problem even though there is still one problem that is transfer, which is quite confusing me why the problem is repeated again in the not-too-distant period, thus making concerns.
though so far I can still believe and can rely on this, do not know later.

Hi,

I was reading your story after recently opening an account and then subsequently investigating HitBTC before actually sending money to the account.  I'm thankful for coming across the story as I most definitely will refrain from investing.  I am curious if you've gotten your issue resolved with them and your loosing access to withdrawing funds from them because of the MuchoMail issue.  If you haven't resolved the issue, let me know and I may be able to support you in getting things resolved.  I'm an IT expert and would be willing to work the issue if you you're wanting support.  I look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards,

[jpdorn]

They have bitconnect listed, what do you expect from them?

[tvtinh]

Luckily I had opened an account there but never used it. Thanks for great information you have shared here and wanna share with my twitter followers to warn them.
