Beware of Coins-E - they are stealing coins from the users

[sumantso]

wow..people still trading here...

People see a good arbitrage opportunity and jump on it even though they know its risky. Then they get stuck.

[sumantso]

Just went to check it out of curiousity and saw this in chat:

guest6768: lost 10 btc here
anickname: I take it this site is broken?
guest4867: coin-rider?
guest4867: Really?
guest4867: Still here?
guest4867: Hahahaha
trader0147546: THIS SITE IS A SCAM
trader0147546: DONT DEPOSIT ANY COINS!!!

Will keep bumping this now and then in case somebody missed out.

Son of a fucking BITCH I wish I had seen this thread before it was too late... No way to recover the coins I presume? GOD FUCKING DAMMIT this sucks.

it's possible he could have fallen under a bus, although I doubt it
for those who have lost large sums, might be worth seeing if you can track down ip addresses

[sumantso]

Coins-e won't respond. All those who have lost - hard luck. The rest, get out before you lose everything.

BTC withdrawl is supposedly working fine. If you try withdrawing other coins, send a small test amount first.

Operations on Coins-E I've tried yesterday & today:

Trading activity in general seems to work as expected, but some exchange rates are very much off the market due to bugs.

deposit BTC : works
deposit LTC : works

withdraw BTC: works
withdraw LTC: works
withdraw PXC: works
withdraw RED: works

withdraw IFC: error "Invalid address provided, Please check the address.", nothing is sent
withdraw KGC: error "Invalid address provided, Please check the address.", nothing is sent
withdraw XEN: error "Invalid address provided, Please check the address.", nothing is sent

withdraw DGC: you can confirm and they are flagged as sent but they have not arrived after 1 day. CAREFUL!
withdraw NVC: you can confirm and they are flagged as sent but they have not arrived after 1 day. CAREFUL!

Bump - in case people are unaware.

[int3ractivodular]

Another bump, don't end up like me!

[PurpleTentacle]

Maybe all hope is not lost:




In the meatime, does anybody know if it's possible to withdraw XPM?

[int3ractivodular]

The contact link now leads to a blank page...

[Bitcoin!]

Theyre support seems to be working now just have to wait for an answer from them!
The support page is the same as cryptsy!

Hopefully we can get some of our coins back, that would be absolutely wonderful.

[weenfan]

coins-e has 12666 of my EMD.. doubt i'll ever see that .. send them a ticket demanding the private key to my coins-e EMD deposit address .. lol

[int3ractivodular]

At least there's a glimmer of hope for my coins... maybe

[Vyper]

I withdrawed 3992 DGC coins but they haven't arrived at its destination.
If i had known this then i would never ever had deposited coins at that Place.
Perhaps they are working people and travel alot then atleast they could mention it or so instead of saying a support staff will get back to you within 24 hours and that was 96 hours ago and Three supports tickets later.

Wtf.. This sucks. RED ALERT ON COINS-E

[itsAj]

Be careful depositing funds to coins-e most of their wallets are not updated.

[Spoetnik]

Worth bumping.. interesting story too

[Scooby903]

When I withdrew my 10k PXC, I could have made roughly half a Bitcoin off of .01 BTC investment...now I can only get .02 and I honestly don't even care if I get them now

Too little, too late...fuck Coins-e 

[gorgorom]

Aww this really blows... I'll try to dox the owner and will re-post if I can find anything... Sorry to all who lost It's never fun losing hard earned coins...
