https://starcoine.com/ - Ask for a deposit before your withdrawal

[bitbollo]

What happened::
After Coineplay, there is another identical scam. Also same layout for their message.
I searched on google but I wasn't able to find any scam accusations, so here we go!
They ask for a deposit before your withdrawal (I know is a bit non-sense but a lot of newbie have caught into the trap)

Yes they are the same type of scam, with even the same script for the website!
Also they use the same format for their thread!

Attention! Read this. In the withdraw window, you need to enter the amount using a dot, for example in this format: "0.002" do not use a comma.

This is the first scam accusations here on bitcointalk against starcoine!
I hope more people will avoid this "soft" scam.

Same old Cryptual scam. They aren't even bothered to change the site title now.

The thing is that these Cex.io clones pop up in such absurd numbers that it is impossible to report all of them, and inform people about it. Victims getting scammed are generally approached on a third party platform like Discord, where someone with an apparent "withdrawal issue" will reach out for help, asking the person for help in withdrawing funds on this clone site, for a reward.

Of course, they will entice you to send first, and ask you to withdraw funds to your own BTC address, which it will never arrive at.

At the end of the day, once you see this kind of template on a site - assume that it's a scam, unless it's the actual Cex.io site.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Please be careful with this and similar fake sites. We kindly ask you not to share any of your personal data and encourage you to be very cautious with sending the funds to sources you are not confident about.
Also, be kindly notified that CEX.IO is in no way related neither to 'Starcoine' nor to 'Coineplay'.

We are already being taken the necessary actions to report these scam sites.

This is very old strategy to scam people's by asking small deposits. Especially newbie people's fall in that kind of trap. They though this is very small amount, so we can take a risk. But they do not think that if one thousand people's deposite with $10 then there is TEN thousand dollars.

However thanks OP for share it with community.
