Same for me... 5 days in and still missing a 3 BTC withdrawal request. I guess we are all in the same boat. That btw terminate my BTC travel here.... was a fun experience... lost a lot of money, not willing to try it again. Eventually once BTC gets better "securities" with a more trustworthy community i guess i ll try again. Until then, good luck everyone. Figured i could buy a few BTC on the side and try to make it grow... wrong.. lesson learned though, the hard way unfortunately. Technology changes.... people don't.

Ouch my friend. Don't get too turned off by the community. Reality is you weren't buying a security or a real investment Sad.

STAY AWAY: rockwell,btc-arbs,bitcoin-trader - I've been playing HYIP's and have a near flawless record over the last year. Made over 1000% return last year. Play HYIP's safely and smart! Stay away from the referral whores on this forum, especially from those putting out their referral links in their signatures. They have no other interest but to profit from you.

I agree this is the real draw back to customers. Probably a big reason they have been going down the big money made their money now there is a small groups of people that use crypto's and half of them use it for illegal things. The more people that get burned the more likely it will be that governments step in.

Definitely seeing a trend. Sub-1 BTC amount withdrawals? No problem. More than 1 BTC? Wait a few days.

This is what I stand to lose. It's nothing compared to some people.
Still frustrating though as I could be trying to turn a profit elsewhere.

I totally agree... I'm making between 8% and 19% / day on the rest of my BTC, the only reason I put it in btc-arbs was because I thought I should keep some in a safe place that would generate returns Tongue
turns out the safe place was the dodgiest place I could think of...
Can I ask what you're doing to get that kind of return? Does it involve a lot of time ?

Did anyone actually receive a full legacy transfer ? Can anyone confirm the message on the results page " Numerous complete legacy transfers have been made and many more will be coming soon" ?

The week has passed and BTC-Arbs is on the right path to getting back on track. Numerous complete legacy transfers have been made and many more will be coming soon. Today's arbitrage result 1.0%

I have no legacy transfers today, just the crap with above that was in today's results.

No getting back on track. Even in the most amazing circumstances that they all paid everyone back to today - the instability of this HYIP would be so ridiculously unpredictable. You really wouldn't be able to tell what direction it would blow into. There just shouldn't even be the discussion of such instability / not paying people 8 weeks into a program that has taken so much in deposits. Really pisses me off...

STAY AWAY: rockwell,btc-arbs,bitcoin-trader - I've been playing HYIP's and have a near flawless record over the last year. Made over 1000% return last year. Play HYIP's safely and smart! Stay away from the referral whores on this forum, especially from those putting out their referral links in their signatures. They have no other interest but to profit from you.

Bitcoin has nothing to do with btc-arbs. Bitcoin with its blockchain is a great piece of technology and I'm sure it has a bright and a long future ahead. Will the value of BTC rise? Who knows, personally I bet it will. Will BTC die as a payment method? Never. Maybe in a long-term future when another crypto will take over.

Exactly. The idea of bitcoin is to have a trust-less payment method where you don't need to trust the bank or government. Trusting your bitcoins with a pretty obvious ponzi site operated by complete anonymous strangers, is pretty much the opposite of the principles of bitcoin.

Under no circumstances should anyone deposit any funds to btc-arbs.com

It is a ponzi scam. They are prolonging the operation to obtain more deposits and have stolen previous deposits under the guise of a legacy account (that people can't withdraw from).

CORRECT...no one shouldnt deposit before everybody here have confirm their withdrawals.

I got my withdrawl today, but I still have a boat load stuck in legacy and would never deposit back into btc-arbs! I did deposit some money into bitcoin-trader.biz though.


That's good to hear lesnod11 - U got some of your deposit back. Hope U can get it all back + the interest that U have earned.

I'd like to ask why the OP updated the thread title today to something that almost sounds like it is trying to divert the attention from the scam status that btc-arbs is?

Well, I agree with you. Noticed it this morning.

It looks like he got his BTC back so it is less of a scam for him.

I just saw those updates also in the main post of this thread. His update for May 3rd says he got a tiny withdrawal a few days prior. The thread title really needs to say flat out SCAM DO NOT INVEST. I do also see a referral link with his username in the main post, so no doubt the btc-arbs admin made a priority selective payout on his account.

Agree, it's obvious.


No it's not, I did not withdrawal any of my BTC, But is just that my account no longer have LEGACY TRANSFER FUND. This is because for weeks, I have not made any deposits into the account. I think this is why my balance got transfer back to my NORMAL balance so soon. Also, I did not invest a lot of BTC in the site. Now, my accounts look and function like before the takeover - no more LEGACY TRANSFER FUND & is earning the daily interest.  

Now, can you people confirmed to me, when did U last made deposits into your accounts? Did U made any deposits in the last 4 weeks or 3 weeks before the takeover or during the heartbleed attack? If U did, then this is probably is the reason why it takes longer for the fund to transfer  back to your NORMAL balance. Well this is my logics about the situation on LEGACY TRANSFER FUND.

If U people want me to change the title of the thread to that, then I will do that. That's me, I do not like to profit at other people's expenses. I also like this to be vice versa. Nor should U be profiting @ my expenses.

Dude, sorry, but to me, "potential scam" is way too soft for btc-arbs. I deposited 35 btc. Now have 49+ btc in legacy (btc-arbs : account is lmiko). They made tiny transfers to normal and all together, I got back 2,8btc out of it since the beginning. I know that i should have been more careful... To my opinion, you should put in bold letters something like "100% SCAM - 100% AVOID". And saying that I know that I could probably say goodbye to my btc... As only new deposit could guarantee my transfers...

So mate, please tell, when did you made your last deposit, is it during the heartbleed attack? Like 3 or 4 weeks from now? Checking the support ticket, the HeartBleed Bug was occurred around 11 April. It is like 3 or 4 weeks from now. Having said this, I am not a believer about BTC-arbs' problems and takover stories. I am more convinced that they are just story to scam people. But why don't they just disappeared for good - Like LEANCY did. Well as some of U have say this is because they want to scam some more deposits. Well, anyway I am more of a conservative/pessimistic person, i err on the negative aspects all the time.  Also, maybe arbitrage trading is also a story. Perhaps btc-arbs & other HYIP programs are just purely stories that suck people in. Having said this, I am currently involved in two other HYIP programs, but I just played with them around the minimum deposits allowed, and I only choose to play with HYIP programs that allowed low deposits amount

It is obvious people, all HYIP websites are the same. By now, I am sure people who had participated in btc-arbs and seen many other HYIP websites. U can easily distinguished that, can U? The answer to this question is, if the website simply have info. about investment plans to lure people to give your BTC / $ to them and U will get over 100% in returns. Then these websites are simply offering a HYIP services. So there U are people! It is really easy to tell whether a website is HYIP or not. A legit website do not just contain these info., eg. comparing to a legible website, such as a bank, they are involved in more than one products.

I was so surprised to read lately that people are reporting that they have made so much deposits into the website - over 1 BTC. Anyway, if people do really paid attention to the wordings within this whole thread, especially the OP, I don't think they should have made those deposits in the first place.
