Each time I visited a blog article about BTC mixers I found several scams promoted in. Either they post about a website know as scammer either they post a website which is nothing more than a clone of a previous project (so a scam too), knowing perfectly what they're doing.
Better to rely on Reddit, forum discussions, etc

This is why making some further verification's thru deep searching is always been advisable or just make it as a habit because if you do just let yourself on easily to believe on what you saw then most likely
you would really end up on being scammed yet not all things being suggested on a site is always a valid or a legit one.There might be some legit mixers on the site but majority of them are unknown or
been known to be a scam this is why search and verify before putting or making any transactions.

There is a scam accusation section to the forum and that might yield relevant info on these sites or similar or you will find people posting there who have a depth of knowledge to various website problems and previous history

Good advice above, its a bit boring to say but established sites are far more reliable.    For a mixer site I would always start with the minimum amount and take it from there if only for familiarity and learning the factors in play like timing

How did you find that URL? Was it from a Google search?

EDIT: Ignore the ramblings of a tired man with not enough coffee!
obviously, coinmixer =/= chipmixer


For reference, the ONLY two legitimate URLs for coinmixer chipmixer are:
clearnet: https://chipmixer.com/
and
TOR: http://chipmixerwzxtzbw.onion/

They are both in every chipmixer signature on this forum

Download Wasabi Wallet or Samourai if you want to use a mixer. Never trust centralized mixers.

These review sites are built for one and only purpose, to mislead people. It's almost certain that they are the exact same people that built these scam mixer sites to begin with, or at the very least affiliated with them.

Given that a lot of services are closing down recently, be extra careful - don't just go around google and use the first mixing service you see. There are tons of both fraudulent and phishing sites, both on these fake review sites and especially google ads. Always check back on the forum for their reputations.


I'm not sure how sure how effective this is.

Reporting the coinmixer.** site as a phishing site will likely get some response from google, however, the mixer review site itself isn't a phishing site, but rather one that promotes scams. I'm not sure how Google will deal with this issue as they don't seem to delete potential scams off search results (as it could potentially lead to censorship concerns).

Hello,

I have just been scammed by these little rats for over 1000 USD. Did not read this post before. Doesn't matter. Was just a trial to check their validity.

I will pass this matter to our boss, he do not like worms like this. We will engage heavily in finding those little pricks and bring them to justice. You do not mess with Chechenia lords...

If we are successful i'll let u know.

Igor

Yes, I've been scammed by these guys as well. Do not trust mixing sites at all in 2019. Mixing has been objectively demonstrated to be utterly useless as dedicated investigators can always trace the source funds of BTC through the Blockchain. This is a flaw on Bitcoin's part. Simply use Monero or look for other solutions.

Do not use any mixing service. I lost around ~$30 in BTC trying to mix my coins through the same site. Actually, it was a clearnet site ranking the "best mixers", all of which were scam sites, possibly connected to the same person.

And add coinmixer.it to the list.  another site that looks legit but returns nothing.   Has an email on protonmail at the bottom of the site and does not respond.

Blog articles will probably sell their souls just to publish an article so there's no surprise that they will promote a scam website, in short they don't have a principle. Reddit as a source of information isn't really the best for me because there is a chance that people are trolling and some trolls can really get too far.
