Ethereum Classic Vision scam

[jokers10]

I was not sure it is scam for long, but when you start own coin with own blockchain you don't ask for ETH like that:

You can also purchase additional ETCV starting from now: send ETH to the contract address below, and you will receive intermediate ERC20 tokens (ETCV), which will be exchanged for Ethereum Classic Vision coins at a 1:1 ratio immediately after the fork, once the mainnet is launched. To buy your ETCV right now, simply transfer ETH to the contract address:
1 ETH = 50 ETCV

(I cleared the ETH-address — so noone would make a mistake sending there anything.)

And additionally, there were several questions in Telegram-chat of the ETCV about explorer, admin ignores all of them! Expecting people would insert privat keys from their wallets. So there could be no coin at all!

These two facts made me clearly see that is 100% scam!

Due to the fact that everyone shared their opinion and investigation, many people here for several days already know that this scam. Thank's

I have long suspected ETCV, because they claim that Ethereum's Fork but is an ERC20 token, which is obviously different from the fork we have seen in the past. It is more like using the official fork of Ethereum to improve oneself reputation. Whether it is scam or not, its motivation is very dark.

Look like OP Accusation is valid. Just now I have read a article on cointelgraph " Two Alleged Ethereum ‘Scam Forks’ Appropriating Users’ Private Keys, Report Finds" by Adrian Zmudzinski. After read full report I don't believe that the both fork are legit. There is enough evidence to called them scammer. Obviously few greedy people's will fall into it.

Does it prove that they are legit ? I think Yobit itself is a scam. Lots of Accusation against them.

I did not claim this, I just shared the information. I also do not trust this exchange.

They list everything they can and they are not removing anything and exchange is full of scam coins, dead coins and "pump and dump" coins(also, not provably fair dice and some kind of weird investment scheme which looks like ponzi). I traded there in the past and I never had problem with them but users complained about waiting for withdrawal for several months, and yeah, they have shitty support. They don't care what they put on exchange.

sorry for a little off topic here, but here is an interesting article about Yobit "Exchange announces criminal ‘pump’ on Twitter"

I have traded also there. I was face problem regarding 2FA code on email address. I never received any code on my email till 6 month. 0.1BTC was there once BTC was almost 20K. I was unable to withdraw fund due to email verification code. I had submitted lots of support ticket. But unfortunately I had not got reply. After 6 month they send verification code on my mail. Then I withdraw my all fund immediately and never use anymore. But bad luck when I withdrawn BTC was 6K . However I have loss by using Yobit and I don't trust them.

Agreed. Yoshit is a total scam - that's why moderators deleted their official thread.

Nice initiative. Like it a lot!

Even if this is already tradeable I will not buy this coin, the only exchange that will accept this scam coin is a scam exchange also like Yobit, you can buy and sell this on Yobit but you will end up gambling in their trading platform because all the volumes are all fake.

what I want to ask, is yobit indicated a scam recently, or indeed for a long time ?
because I used to trade there, and fortunately my assets could be withdraw

[Kasperiko]

Exchanges like yobit are just a shame for the community. The sums of the stolen eth are already approaching 100k$  if you count the tokens that are also stolen from those who entered their private key. Proves again that greed leads to mistakes. Added merits to you measures for this important topic sure that you saved many new users.

I think that the Yobit exchange could well run this scam fork (ETCV). This exchange is famous for its pyramids and dishonest actions towards its users. On the forum many topics about this shit exchange.

This is a big help to other people in the future to first research the project they are joining in. It still sad to see in their scam address have hacked many ETH wallets in just short of time. More like 104 ETH in total.

well I was guess that too  bounty hunters make them famous to steal money from ICO very deprecated bitcointalk becoming the source of these type of scams
