[coolon]

I did not long ago with the bittrex sent coins to YOB. with bittrex went to yobit did not reach)

Cryptopia is safe and they are addressing the withdrawal issues, read their tweets.
Everything will be solved within couple of weeks. Cut them some slack, delay is bad - agreed, but at least they are keeping their customers in the loop and communicating properly about the issues.

Their investbox is like a ponzi to me. There's nothing new with yobit, their support sucks, their withdrawal and deposit are really frustrating.

The next scammers in the market are crypto currency.

You have a point so we have to be vigilant and stay watchful, just review the exchange you are trading so that you know who's the exchange you're trusting.

thanks for the info!
well that there are people who do not keep silent about the discovery of scammers but help others not to get on them !!!
I'll keep it on mind. Once again I am convinced that it is necessary to check up hundred times before to make what or action!

I do not know if yobit scam,
and I never played in yobit, why now many marketplace like yobit scam?

[easytipz]

I withdrawn all my money and moved away from Yobit last year. I dont think Yobit is a scam but there are many many Better exchanges now a day, such as: Binance, Bittrex...

I faced this problem. And then I message on support for this problem, but there are no reply.
And I saw by a google chrome extension this site is not safe.

After waiting 3 Days, I saw there are no mail from yobit.
Then I open my new browser and try to login, I was surprised, login successful.  Then I withdraw my all Dollar to my safe wallet.
You can try a new browser, it can help you.

Man yobit was the last option that I will choose if I can't sell my coins. Almost all exchange have a similar issue with support, the problem is yobit always have a problem way back then before a good amount of user rush in if I remember.

[Space32]

We do not recommend keeping all your crypto on the exchanges. From the exchange, even with the most secure features, you can lost your funds, for example, according to your own irresponsibility.
In addition, we recommend that you make a deposit on the exchange in parts, not the all sum. And after that - withdraw immediately.
As for the Yobit.net exchange - there are many rumors about unreliability, possible scam, long and hovering on deposit and withdrawal of funds, as well as extremely long responses to tickets to the customer support (1-4 months).
We personally experienced such difficulties with this exchange.
But you can not guess how this exchange will behave, also other large exchanges can also cause such or even worst problems. Therefore, it is better to use different exchanges, not to keep all funds on exchanges in general, and on one (even the best) in particular.

I agree, I will also choose yobit only if I have no other choice. In general, I try not to keep funds on stock exchanges, immediately after making sales operations I deduce all funds in my wallet.

[Nivelir]

There were a lot of bad rumors about the Yobit stock exchange, so you're not the first one to say this, probably just do not use this exchange, buy or sell on Binance, I think it will be safer there than on everything else

I am an user of YObit InvestBox. It offers daily 5% or even daily 10% for 

your invest. All you have to do is wait 24 hours and play DICE game for at least 5 times.

You can cancel your invest at any time and call back your investments. 

I bought 0.1 BTC worth of LIZA coins. Under 12 hours my account was closed. 


Now i keep on getting these errors (since 13.2.2018):


Invalid login or password.


You cannot log in now. Please try again later or contact our Support Team.


Temporarily disabled.


Now "funny" part is that i can not play DICE so i am not getting

my daily payments. Price of the LIZA will be dropping 10-30% daily.


Please listen to my warning about this exchange!


This exchange can work well for a months with the small amount of money (under 1 ETH).

Right after you start to trust them and raise your deposits, it is more likely that they will rob you.


This exchange need to be closed and blocked as soon as possible for our savety!


My login on YOBit is plaakkon1.

This is not new as this exchange is very from long and their are lot of complaints about this exchange but still it is running and no one can block this exchange.  I am also using this exchange but i never deposit in this exchange, i only use it for my altcoins which i am getting in bounty and trading their. i always withdraw small amount of bitcoins so never got problem.

[plaakkon1]

Update to my situation. With the different computer i was able to log in (after a few attempts).
I have now saved 90% of my balances to a different exchange. Maybe i was only a unlucky.
I lost about 70% of my invests, but at least i could take out a small part from them.

If you meet similar problems, try with the another computer and a browser.
YObit support should work better. After all i did not receive a single answer from them.

[publicjud]

This is one of the worst exchanges I ever saw and if you have an opportunity not to trade there it is better to do so. Many people have problems with this exchange. I also had problems so I got out of there few months ago. I'd recommend to avoid such crappy exchanges.

[l10no]

it's no secret that yobit is a market exchange full of problems, so I suggest for the traders crypto to be careful if you have an account on YOBIT exchange, too much shit coin there and things that are very unsafe

[leialdover]

I thought yobit is a good exchange. Most of the altcoins have been listed there. but when  i read this thread im afraid that at some point in time one by one exchanges may turn out to be a scam.. I just hope not.
Well thank you for this information.. Now i know i should avoid this exchange.

[leea-1334]

I will be objective here. I see a lot of scam accusations about Yobit, but I also see the same scam accusations against Poloniex and Bittrex and whatever other exchange you want to mention. But on my objective view, there is not a single valid or actual scam proven against Yobit, as of yet. As far as I can see and even with my personal experience, they are slow and they take time but they have not scammed. They were also official exchange partnering with coins like Bitcoin Gold, so there you go.

[adzino]

You should avoid Yobit like I personally do. The exchange itself is very fishy and most of the coins found over there are just some shitcoins ready to be pumped and dumped.
This isn't the right way to report a scam in forum. By the way, did you try contacting support and see what they have to say?

[aalborg]

Yobit exchange is totally full of shitcoins. I was "lucky" investing in their Invest box and just couldn't stop. I see how token is going down, but just invest more. Shame for me. And their support is really awfull.

[sana54210]

Just a reminder to everyone never trust exchangers always keep your assets to your wallet.Just transfer your assets when you want to trade it.If you are daily trader always secure your account,put 2fa or email verification.Everything is under your control.

There are even some exchanges you can still at least have a little bit of rest of mind, even though not completely since you do not have full control of your funds, but some exchanges like Yobit, you had better be sleeping with one eyes opened all the time as they can drop the needle on you anytime they wish.

That is what they know how to do best; close account, have no support to report to, but even at the end, some will just not listen and still use them and to me, whoever ends up using Yobit, knowingly or unknowingly about the kind of exchange they are, deserves whatever happens to them out of their carelessness.
