Bitcoin fog scam?

[michielnl]

Hi,

Because of these strange deposits:
    http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1xenyd/just_received_weird_tiny_payments_1sochi_1enjoy/

I wanted to test bitcoin fog.

Does anybody know if they are still operating?

There seem to be some problems?

I have never used it.
But, several people made post in the official to complain about the slow withdrawals...

Hi,   If by "problems" you mean Bitcoin Fog is a bunch of scam artists that have many types of creative ways of stealing your money from you.  Yes the topic is right, Bitcoin fog scam.  No question mark necessary at the end.  They will steal your money, if you are lucky they will respond to a support message you submit.  But they will treat you like garbage, be part of the scam, and ignore any issue you are trying to explain or solve.  They will show you no remorse for stealing your money.

Yes the topic is right, Bitcoin fog scam.  No question mark necessary at the end.

Technical difficulties and logistic issues are one thing.  But using them to keep peoples money, like the monopoly card "Bank error in your Favor"

It's the act of keeping the money and refusing to return it to the client that makes Bitcoin Fog a scam.

And they are a scam, read my posts in topic 50037 if you want the details on how they scammed me.  But they run several scams according to what I have read in forums.

If you enjoy giving your money to thieves and scammers I recommend Bitcoin Fog highly.

This post shows up on top when doing a Google search for "bitcoin fog scam". That's why I decided to reply, as the issue has just become urgent again.

There are strong indication that Bitcoin Fog is doing an exit scam right now, maybe selectively. Please have a look at Bitcoin Fog's main thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50037

Complaints accumulate there since the last hours and days.

There is an easy solution:

bitmixer.io

And/or if you have a blockchain.info wallet: use their shared coin service.

Both work fine.

If people would read the thread on Bitcoinfog before they use them, they would likely avoid a lot of indigestion, just sayin'...

An important disclosure!

I have just joined bitmixer.io's campaign, as have many others here at bitcointalk.

If I were in this solely for the money, I perhaps would have not joined them.  But, I don't care about getting the maximum number of BTC possible as I have actually used bitmixer.io many times now, their service has worked very well.

Highly recommended.

Better avoid that site, so many complaints on main thread. Probably they're doing selective payment.
Why don't you just use Bitmixer service? It looks more professional and trusted.
