HitBTC - SCAM !!! Watch out!!!

[iaminlove]

hmm, EVN will be listed there soon, but with that problem does it mean that i have to wait with tokens transfer and wait for another exchange listing?

[kopam]

For the moment only a few people are reporting to have gotten the TRX deposits.
Until this issue is truly resolved i would be very careful and wait to see what happens, before depositing any more funds to hitbtc.

[Exploid]

Also have many promblems with this scam.

[kopam]

As i mentioned, they did give a decent explanation. The problem is that nothing changed after that.
If you are to blame it all on technical issues and say that most people have TRX deposits fixed and just some are left, you should at least make sure that people actually get the deposits they did.

Most of the people in the hitbtc forum say that they still did not receive anything, same is with slack/discord/telegram groups. Noticed 3 people altogether that got the deposits.

I do hope that this is just a technical problem for hitbtc and that they will eventually fix all this issues.
BUT, until this is done - stay away from hitbtc! You might get your deposit in weeks or never get it!
Read the forums, twitter etc. before you do ANY deposit to ANY exchange!
For the moment i still have a small amount of hope left, so lets see if things will actually get fixed or not.

Binance all the way!

Hi,

this is the worst experience so far. I can fully understand if technical issues can happen, but if issues are raising its important that there is communication. Communication is key! But that's not the case, no one is answering the tickets and on the forums where currently hundreds of people are afraid that they have lost their money, a single person answers 2 or 3 threads per day ( yes per day, not per hour or per minute - its per day  ) and only those threads which are 4 weeks old. Then this person cleans up the spam messages ( very important ) and closes the threads which have been answered. So at least people are not even able to answer to their own threads in order to leave a comment if the issue has been solved or not. And just a few days ago they disabled all the main forums, so you are not able to post threads in place where they belong.

I'm also having an open ticket, in my case WRC token are missing. I can see them right at the address which HITBTC provided me but now 7 days are gone and nothing appeared in my HITBTC Wallet.

I can everyone recommend not using HITBTC at the moment. The first time I used it, I was impressed about the interface and how everything works. But Deposit and Withdraw are just a nightmare. I'm not even sure if I ever see my tokens back.

I do not understand. What is the difficulty in add manually XEM an account?
On January 12 I sent XEM with a multi-signature.
So far, I have not got anything to deposit.
When enrolling, it was not written that the Hitbtc does not accept the multi-signature.
I very much regret that I did such a stupid thing.

I do not think they are scammers. But they work terribly most likely because of the high influx.

[kopam]

Well ... as expected, everything that hitbtc said a few days ago was simply a lie and nothing else!
So now i can confirm that they are using our coins to make money and eventually they might steal everything!
So watch out! DO NOT USE HITBTC EVER AGAIN!

A few days ago they said that they fixing the problem, most people already got the coins and there are just a few left - this is simply a complete LIE!!! Anyone can check the hitbtc forum and see how many people got their TRX, same for telegram/whatsapp/discourd and other groups! ONLY 4-5 people got the TRX - NO ONE ELSE!
They DO NOT respond to ANYONE's emails - they simply send out automated robot emails to make ppl think that it will be fixed.

They said that only ppl that deposited before 18-th of January have problems - another COMPLETE LIE - you can check the forums/groups!


So HitBTC is simply lying to everyone, they do that so people think its simply a technical problem and everything will be fixed soon, in the same time there are new ppl with lost TRX- EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY!!!!
DO NOT USE HITBTC! IT IS A SCAM SITE! 100% SCAM SITE!
They will simply continue saying that its just a technical glitch and nothing else, so more people can send coins that they can steal!

EVERY single person already send his TX ID, account and everything else!
How hard can it be to open the person account - check if the address he send his TRX to was ever connected to his account and if so - credit his TRX?
1 person can fix 10 accounts/hour and the problem would be fixed long ago.
In the same time they say that they are "working on it"- what the fuck are you working on? Stealing our money?
Fuck that stupid excuses - this is what they use - they hope that people do not understand anything about crypto, so they can simply tell them that "oh its crypto, so its very hard to fix it!"so non technical people believe that shit and continue sending them fresh coins to steal.


The post that HitBTC THEMSELVES posted in this very thread confirms everything i posted in my original post and in this post - you can clearly see all the lies there  - all the promises that it will be fixed very soon and only a few people are left with problems. ALL this are complete lies and anyone can check the hitbtc forum, twitter and anywhere else...
Fuck it - just check the Twitter account and check every single fucking post has NEW AND NEW people complaining.


WATCH OUT! DO NOT USE HITBTC! IT IS A COMPLETE SCAM EXCHANGE THAT WILL STEAL ALL YOUR  COINS- THIS IS A FACT
DO NOT FALL FOR THE BULLSHIT THEY SAY ONLINE, BUT NEVER ACTUALLY DELIVER - ANOTHER FACT

I lost hope that i will ever get my coins in a normal way, the community is currently trying to take legal actions against this scammers - the more people join - the better chance we have!
But PLEASE, EVERYONE, share the news and protect your friends and any newcomers into the Crypto world from being burned at HitBTC!

I am using hitbtc for almost one year concentrating on \ETH\BTG \BCH all fine up to date with capital of more than one bitcoin (1.59) also i had never tried to deposit tokens on it . but your warring fire a big red alarm for me and should be for anyone else , actually we fed up from contouinous scam attempts done by exchanges in the past .
I think it is time to apply the idea of decentralization exchanges .
Thank you for putting the red alarm....... i am going to withdraw my coins out  .

[kopam]

For anyone that still was not burned - just look around at forums, twitter, groups and anything - all you will see is people with problems...
Support is unexciting, except for automated emails and the occasional lies in forums.
Every time they say "there are a few people left and there is no problem actually" and then for 10 days nothing happens, except for more people not getting the coins they deposited.

Hundreds of users deposited millions!!! and never got anything!
Just check the existing exchanges and find one that actually cares for its users and does not steal from them!

[kopam]

Another automated bullshit email with no info in it, just that traders need to wait longer. The scam continues! STAY OUT!

[CoinMenX]

HITBTC is Supper Scam )

[traged]

Ouuu I hope I can access my coins as I have quite a lot of TRX there!!

[Lamb0$oon]

HitBTC looks more and more shady. not sure if i want to trade there now. i mostly using bittrex or binance and cryptopia and smaller exchanges for new coins.

[TecScout]

At the time, I also bought TRx via HitBTC.

I would not do that anymore. It took me 2 weeks until I had it on my wallet.

Either the page was not reachable or you could not transfer it.

For me it was the last time I did something there.

[Larrycool]

I sent EBTC from myetherwallet to my hitbtc exchange address. that happened on 20th of jannuary. Its almost 2 weeks and the hitbtc wallet hasn't been credited. I have since contacted myetherwallet who said the transaction was successful that I should contact Hitbtc to credit my token. I have created several tickets on this, till now, i haven't gotten any response.

I do not think they are scammers. But they work terribly most likely because of the high influx.

I recently wrote. I was credited to the account and I withdrew from the stock exchange. Everything worked quickly. I waited 2-3 weeks. Thank you.
I can say this is not a scam. But they work badly because of the influx of likely

[explorer17]

Most exchanges are doing that, its just that the bigger they are, the bigger coins they can scam, pump/dump etc.

And yes i agree that it was a mistake on my part, that i did not do an extensive research about HitBTC. Now that i am digging in, i am finding all the problems.

But what amazes me is that in order to find this problems, you actually need to take your time and search a lot.

Why are there no news on the big crypto pages? Why are there so few posts in Twitter/FB about this- from all the "famous" guys in crypto...

If this does not go public - there will be more and more burned users and eventually there will be another mtgox... but this time it will be much worse...
Tell your friends and share the news!

You are right. The old story, the same problem  I hope people will learn from these sour lessons.

[Lamb0$oon]

shady

[dzkrb1966]

I just can not get used to the interface of this exchange. At Bitrex, everything is simple, but here - full slag. This is the only exchange on which the interface I have not been able to master.
