How WhaleClub.co stole my bot's earnings (1BTC per hour)

[Thierry71]

Hello, I managed to develop an algorithm that wins a lot in Turbo trading on www.whaleclub.co
In an hour my bot can earn 1 BTC or more.

Screenshots while I was testing my bot and its algorithm (in Demo mode):
First round, promising, 5.0 BTC ended up with 5.8900 BTC - https://pasteboard.co/GPxKkda.png
Second round, after fine tuning the algorithm, 6.8040 BTC woohoooo! - https://pasteboard.co/GPyUMYg.png

At that moment it was obivous that it had to earn a lot!

So I started with 0.1 BTC funds at 4am, bidding 0.01 BTC.
At 9am I had enough (0.25 BTC) to cashout my initially deposited funds (0.1 btc + a little extra ;P) and to continue to play with 0.1 BTC (like free money!).
I started to increment my bids, at 10am I had 1 BTC, bidding 0.1 BTC (max) for every turbo trade (because I had enough balance at that moment to risk more).
20min later I had 1.26 BTC, they removed my earnings, they even left me with a negative balance... It is set to zero now. I guess they were in a hurry to remove my earnings ASAP hence the "negative balance bug".
They also removed the transactions from the history logs, and sure enough they banned me from the chat.

Screenshot of my empty balance:
2 hours after the brutal balance removal, balance reset to 0, banned from the chat (I have never talked on the chat with this account) - https://pasteboard.co/GPDwMNl.png

Stay away from them, if you start to win they will do the same they did to me.
There are a couple of other reports showing how they freely steal your earnings if you really win.
Obviously a lot of people will tell you they play there since years without any problems.
Sure, they have a global balance that is negative (the house always wins) or not too high.

Please spread the word, honest people will fall for this scam.

If enough interest is shown I will release the source code of the bot (developed in python).
This way they will be forced to stop the Turbo trading scam.

This is an awesome post. You seem like a helpful person!! I appreciate you taking the time to warn people about the danger of turbo trading. I have seen more than a few people lose all their Bitcoin gambling on turbo. And the worst part is that whaleclub isn't even happy there, they have to zero balances from winners too!! There have been a few other sites that operate in this way too and you are right, they didn't change until too many people started winning.

I saw some haters complaining about you; don't worry about them, they don't make movies about haters. You remind me of Kevin Spacey in the movie 21, outsmarting the casinos! I'm sure someday they'll make movies about Bitcoin stuff like this too.

Bitcoin definitely has the potential to change the world and keeping it in the hands of people not whaleclub is key. Let me know what I can do to help you in your quest.

Are you same person on this site?



You have the same situation with this guy. I have my research and i found out that some scam review site are shilling this kind of investment because the rate seems high. But if you look deeper. There are so many people were scammed by this scammers. Some of they scammed were members here in this forum including you.

- They almost tripled the spread, which made my timed entries and exits much harder.
- They wiped my account of my gained 1.5 BTC when I tried to withdraw 1 BTC.
- They blocked me on their chat interface so I am not allowed to complain about them stealing the bitcoins.
- The support never answered for a week despite I gave them tips to improve their service.
- When I choosed URGENT level, I got answer but they act as if nothing happened
   The log of my withdrawal request never appeared on my profile. Only now does it work correctly.
   Obviously it's only 0.01 BTC so they don't need to go and steal it.
- To this day, I have no answer why they don't send notifications when they either increase the spread fee
   and when they decide to prevent you access to chat. I didn't behave incorrectly whatsoever on this chat.

Be careful next time. Make a deeper research on investment you want to join.

I have also ran into a scam by Whaleclub / Whaleclub.co where they are stealing nearly $46,000 from my account by simply claiming I broke their rules which really just say "we have the right to take your money for any reason we see fit".  All I did was trade.  No bot, not automation, nothing but pressing "buy" and "sell" like any other user would at a time when the price was moving strongly.

Sorry to hear that you got scammed, did you read my post before you transferred 107 DASH to this scamming website? Or did you think that playing with a bot was the problem? The fact that you play with a bot or by hand doesn't change anything. There is an official API, to let bots play through it, you can place orders, fetch market data, etc. I thought it was clear sorry if it wasn't.

The next time you pick an exchange think about the following: who pays you if you win? The losers or the exchange? If the losers pay while the exchange gets money through the fees then they don't need to steal their customers obviously. The more you win the more they win. Simple rule. Follow the profit.

Sorry to hear your loss but gambling is gambling, one has to lose so other can win. Mostly people get scammed when they try to get rich quick.

Sorry linkybit but you don't get the point. When you play and you win, and the house doesn't give you what you won it is called a scam. Even worst when they even steal your funds. Imagine you put your money in your bank for 1% annual profit and by the end of the year they simply remove your balance and don't answer to your requests. Scam.

If I had to guess I would guess that you are part of the scammers family and you try to discredit the scamming reports with false assumptions, to lure people and let them think our losses are "normal".

For the others, again, follow my advice when you choose an exchange. If when you win you get the house's money then it is a scam, only put your money on exchanges where you win the losers' money and the house (exchange) always wins the fees. Scammers are also in iqoption, iqmining, finrally, etc. They are a large family of scammers, follow www.finministry.com . whois, google, dns, etc. are your friends. You will see that everything connects easily. They are really bad at IT design/deployment/config. Lots of vulnerabilities on their crappy shit.

very sad for your experience, sent a PM, let's see if can do something

Hello! I'd personally love to see and analyze your bots code. I am a college student that has been crypto trading for a while and am just starting out with algorithmic trading in python. There isn't a lot of online resources for whaleclub.co to work and learn off. If you could post or send to me that would be fantastic!

Ran the market Cryptsy which was great for ALTS in 2014 but exit scammed... Wish I still had all the BTC he stole from me
