is yobit exchange scam?

[astropark]

Hi all!
I sent 5 hours ago some ETH tokens to my ETH token deposit address on yobit, first deposit, but I can't see anything! nothing!
even 0 "awaiting deposit".
Is that normal?
thanks all

I'm not really sure but someone I know is having some problems with that trading platform weeks ago. I am not sure if his problem has been solved already as I haven't heard from him. Did you try contacting their support or their social media platforms to reach out? Hope they'd be able to solve this soon.

If you can wait for 12 hours , if there is still no show on the yobit website, you can contact their customer service, we can believe yobit, yobit this web site is a reliable website.

I also haven't used yobit ever before but if you have got transaction id, check it on etherscan.io. However you should wait atleast 24 hours, may be their system pushes the transaction to network during that time. If the problem remains same even after 24 hours, you can create a support ticket and their is nothing abiut worry, yobit is a trusted largest exchange , they will help you to sort out issue

I would really suggest to trade only on the reliable exchange such as Polonix, Bittrex and Coinbase.

It' s not a scam, but they are very slow! I know from personal experience. Might be useful to contact them

first of all check one of the ethereum block explorers to make sure your transaction is out there and see if it is confirmed or not. ETH network is very congested these days and in the past transactions have actually disappeared just like that from the face of the internet!

second if your transaction was confirmed then simply send Yobit your transaction ID and ask them to fix the issue. it usually is fixed in 48 hours. i have had similar problems specially when ETH network is at its worse.

and finally avoid Yobit if you can use any other exchange. i wouldn't say scam but they are pretty shady.

Definitely check the block explorers to see how the transaction is going.  I have also heard Yobit termed the roach motel of exchanges.  Coins check in but sometimes they dont check out.  I hope your transaction goes through and you get your coins.

I made a lot of good trades on Yobit, is not a scam. But the support is not really efficient... You have to wait a little time to get an answer.

I haven't really used yobit until now but as far as I know the exchange is kinda okay. I know it has some coins that will have absolute 0 future in crypto but I think it's just a strategy of the owners to get more money. But overall , Yobit seems ok.

[astropark]

Thanks to all!
I have transaction id of course, I checked they "received" my coins, after 2 hours someone "sent" the same tokens I sent to another address, where there are "millions" of that tokens (I sent 1k tokens).
I don't know what to say, I already opened a ticket
Tokens arrives in 10-20 minutes in a little exchange like coinexchange.io, so why should takes more than 6 hours (now 6 hours, yes) in order to make them available to me for trading?
I still don't see them in the awaiting deposit column...
I hope I will have again my tokens

No  it is not scam exchange but it is exchange of scam coins. Such problems are faced by a lot of people in different exchanges. You should contact with their support.

Try to wait for 1-2 days. If unsuccessful - write to criptocurrency exchange support. I think they help you

I have been using Yobit since many months but never really faced any issue like yours. I would have recommended you to check out your transaction on etherchain but since you say that the transaction was confirmed I would suggest you to contact their support. Additionally you can contact dominikhergoz who is the admin of that exchange and tell him about your issue. Give them your transaction ID and ask for help in the chatbox in yobit. I am sure somebody would help you out in this case.

no, yobit is not a scam. I do not have an issue on this exchange
just the support slow to respon a ticket if have a problem. But deposit and withdraw is working.

thanks, but I can't use the chat, as I have 0 balance currently, this was my very first deposit on this exchange. I registered myself in this exchange just one hour before making the deposit!
Now I think I have to wait...

it is a well known fact that Yobit never runs majority of the wallets. the have always been like this and will be the same. you can not run an exchange with thousands of shitcoins listed and run every single wallet for every single one of them and also nobody wants them, people are just buying and dumping them on exchange never taking them out.

they have also always been the most shady exchange in existence, you should always avoid them as much as possible unless you have no other choice.

Please post the transaction hash so we can see.
But yobit have a lot issues about withdrawal and deposit. You shouldve just used another exchange rather than that.
Those who told their stories about Yobit is real and I am one to experience it too.
Next time you know what to do.
You dont have any choice now but to wait.

Remember total txpending in ethereum network has been decreased a lot. But if you are not seeing your transaction right now and there are two possibilities, the first yobit just put little fees for your transaction. and the second your transaction still not processed by yobit exchange site. Remember yobit is untrusted exchange site right now.

Never use it but I have seen a lot of bad comments about yobit, some claim that their wallet is in maintenance while there's no problem with the wallet so they can't wd their coin, misleading people by refusing to delist a coin that have been forked etc. Just wait a little bit more, make sure you deposit it to the correct address and if it doesn't show up in your dashboard by tomorrow then you should contact the support. Don't forget to check etherscan to make sure your transaction went through.
