Scam by twitter-account @YobitHelp_ , my history

[farsky]

Hello, everybody

I want to share my story of stupidity, maybe it will save someone.

History in pictures, I think everything will be clear.

@YobitHelp_  is scammers, they stole from me 0.04 BTC, here is their address https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/39DemWt4sUYMzGcponbF2e1RXmspVo6Cd7

But I also want to say that 0.04 BTC is a lot of money for me, I am not one of those who earn a lot, all this is very painful.

Why I believed the scammers .. In the first image you can see what the scammers wrote to me, and its name and logos coincide with the account of the Yobit Exchange, I thought that the link was given to me by the real account Yobit.
And also I was tired.
Never work with a crypt if you are tired.

I also wrote to  Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and asked why the scam accounts are not being deleted.
I also sent a complaint to twitter .. but usually they do nothing.

Damn, that's such a brazen scam, what with the pyramid-shaped "verification fee" (0.01 - 0.03 - 0.05). Did they stop responding after receiving 0.03 BTC?

At first they activated all my codes, and after I sent 0.03 .. only after that I wondered what I was doing.
Then I went to see if the real Yobit or someone else answered me. When I carefully looked at what is shown on the first screenshot, I understood everything, but it was too late.

It is not clear why for so many months no one complained about this account (or Twitter deliberately does not block it).

Worst scam ever. Everybody knows Yobit doesn't have an support as good as this one. They don't even answer their tickets, imagine actually talking real-time with someone.

sorry, had to do this. On a serious note, report him: https://twitter.com/i/report/user/1072718318442868736 - if we all do that, he can go down pretty quickly.

Guys I think I have warned it several times in the forum that YoBit does not have any customer support that operate in social media like Facebook, twitter or anywhere else. The only option to contact with them is, to go through the support page once you are logged in in your Yobit account.

Once I was very close to this scammers (social media) and then I asked Yobit if they are real. Their response was that there are no such customer support exists except their support page in the account.

Sorry OP that you lost your money. I hope at-least some people see this and learn the truth.

[farsky]

All that Yobit could do is block the fraudster’s account.
That's what they write me

But at least they did it!

Twitter does NOT respond to my reports.
I tried to prevent the scammer from deceiving other people, to every @YobitHelp_ tweet I wrote a tweet to the answer.
"be carefully, @YobitHelp_  is scammers.

And after a while I was blocked by @YobitHelp_.

Thus, it turns out that Twitter protects the scammer.

He has been "working" since December 2018 and has already collected at his address more than 2 bitcoins (and he probably has more than 1 address)

Sorry for your loss, I have lost my patience to read all of your reply. We should know that any exchange will not ask for any fund outside of exchange like Twitter, Telegram. So it was obvious scam attempt, unfortunately a senior member like you fall in their trap. It's not new, there was more scam attempt like free giveaway and so on.

However, thanks for share your story, hope other people's will stay away from this kind of trap.

LOL I agree with you. First when I read his story I thank it was a fake story...
But then I asked to myself why he would make a fake for that?  

So farsky I thank you very much for your humbleness. It's very courageous to share that.
But may I ask you if you're a real Hero member? (or if someone gave or sold your account)

I just got this:



Basic translation: "Thanks for the report; yadayada; after our investigation, we concluded that the account violated our rules; yadayada".

I visited the account and that's what I see:



Reports work.

Great! Well done TryNinja!
You seem to have a little bit more power than farsky on this social media  LOL  
Well in fact I don't understand why farsky wasn't able to get his ban... maybe because @YobitHelp_ blocked him before?

[farsky]

ok, then let's continue.
Some time after my report (I bored @TwitterSupport a few days by tweets and pm), Twitter sent me a message saying that it suspended the @YobitHelp_ account.

Update on your complaint
Thanks again for the information provided! We have determined that this account violates Twitter Rules.

I was lazy to write here about it.
On the question of who has more power, I do not know, probably this is a rhetorical question.
Maybe it should be some time before support processes my report, and I was very impatient.

Also support Yobit answered me

Regarding this weird link for me  https://twitter.com/i/report/user/1072718318442868736
seriously, I didn’t understand what it was at all, after going over it I fall on https://twitter.com/home

In any case, I express my deep gratitude to TryNinja for their support and help. Thanks !!!

English is not my native language, which is probably why it’s hard for me to understand why you call fake my history.

The second question is also difficult for me)) yes, this is my original account, and I will never sell it, and never bought it)).
ok ok I understand now)) you think as an experienced person with registration 2016 could fall into such a simple trap.
The described story happened to me solely because of my stupidity and (most importantly) by inattention.
Never engage in crypto if you want to sleep.

No I didn't call your story a fake, I just said I thought it was a fake story when I started to read it... because as you said it's a little bit surprising to see an accomplished member with a such activity being scammed so easily by a fake twitter account.

[farsky]

well, thank you all for your support and compassion, now I have difficult times.
At least the fraudster is blocked and will not be able to deceive others.
I will sometimes see to it that his account is not unlocked.

He'll probably just move to a different account and buy some followers to make it look legit. Always check a website to see what their official accounts are.

Correct. The user could just put another deceiving name like @yobitsupport, @yobit_help and many others. It is so easy to create a twitter account that a one banned scammer account, 10 or more are created.

At some point he won't have any good handler anymore, so he will need to start getting creative to look legit. Just keep reporting these accounts.

then let's go  
search on the word "yobit"
11 reports - 11 accounts are already blocked. but not, I misunderstood .. twitter is only going to check them out .. Russia or the USA - everywhere bureaucracy
Oh yeah.
Let the scammers burn in hell.

Yobithelp, я знaю, ты здecь гдe-тo ecть, cyкa, ты oтoбpaл y мeня  мoи жaлкиe кoпeйки, чтo ж, гнидa,  oни тeбe бyдyт oчeнь дopoгo cтoить.
этo были мoи пocлeдниe бaбки, пaдлa

upd.
If you search by word "poloniex" then fraudulent accounts are not detected. They are not)) Probably someone is watching for this.
Why doesn’t Yobit fight fraudsters.
