[SCAM] Avrobit exchange (and all yellow clones) Alert

[CryptoCreateure]

Hi everyone and I’m so appreciative of this chat and the help on this forum that I can’t thank enough.

I’m not sure if this is ok to post here but I thought it is since it’s the only place I find this website that is listed here to quote the post and my experience. I don’t know if This is purely to list the exchanges or projects that are bad or scams ect or if we can ask and post questions about them if we use them or have funds there ect. As I do. If not allowed here please move this. Thank you all.

Please see the quoted post of a lost of exchanges or websites that are listed as scams as one I have BTC on is listed here... 😥

Here is my problem on The below quote listing BitWave.LTD. I have been sent BTC from someone who must have verified account through depositing 0.01 BTC they had more in their account as they sent me a screen shot. This was to help this person as he was “blocked from depositing to Binance (or some other known legit exchange)” for what reasons I don’t know I believe it was to do with API use ir abuse for auto trading. They had the idea to send me a random person I met after they DM me on a social platform asking if I could take a deposit but keep 20% of the BTC. I thought OK!

Then he told me about the website exchange he was on “Bitwaveltd” he asked if I had a wallet address not a Bitwave.Ltd wallet, which I did have but I didn’t use it (I wasn’t thinking nor did I know what to do as I was/am new to crypto back a few months) I thought from lack of knowledge opening an account on this exchange would make it a easy transaction (I was wrong).

They messing me and I get the account finished and send the deposit adress for BTC. I receive the BTC. I paste in his BTC adress to send to minus 20% click send, get message that I must verify the account with a deposit of 0.01btc from any exchange wallet. I don’t have 0.01BTC to do this nor the money really to deposit on bunance and then buy 0.01 BTC and deposit to verify sso I can (supposedly send this BTC back to its owner.

I have been in contact with him and he has even offered to send me the value of $0.01 BTC to my bank or offered PayPal if I wasn’t ok giving my bank details. So I don’t think he or she is behind or apart of any scams rather likely they are A victim. I just don’t want them to send that money and have it be something I then deposit or get 0.01BTC do verify bitwaveltd and loose more of their money.

So I decide I need to try and get this sorted to get the BTC back to its owner..
I researched into Bitwave.ltd when this happened and the first webpage I open was a page that reviewed and stated the site had no bad reports and it was a clean website..I also checked virus total links on its home page profile page and the exchange page. That was all fine so I figured I’ll save up and buy 0.015 BTC on binance to transfer to this website. So I’m almost there with $ and I decide to check again today and looked into the website for conscription details ect.

Today I found the supposed location on a Google maps as AUST but many review and scam sites show its USA based. FIRST RED FLAG. I found this Australian location through searching the only name within Bitwave (and it’s listed in the quoted post below) which I find a person that has a finacial role but it’s for different company/s one at the top being “Bitwave.io” not “Bitwave.ltd”. SECOND RED FLAG.. since I couldn’t find any details on bitwave LTD that’s legit or shows it’s a true business I found this post and figured I’d comment see if anyone else is having this issue or any issue with bitwave.ltd.
So I then thought I’ll search for it’s stock on global exchange. I couldn’t find any company with that name or Bit Wave or Bitcoin Wave or BTCWave or Bitwaves (there are a few bitwaves.tv .io and other dot.com types. That was the THIRD RED FLAG.

Basically hope this helps others not invest here if it is absolutely a scam as it sounds like it. Also I have one question can I get this looked into legally and say I had a good lawyer would they be able to get the BTC/$ value out of the exchange or the people responsible? Since it is still a crime.

I know it’s not likely but I figure I ask here where the best knowledge is at 😚 thanks

First of all, I'm sorry for your loss. The crypto universe is full of such scam attempts, and you must be extra vigilant not to fall for them.
This type of scam has been around for a long time and it is (sometimes) important to use common sense. It defies logic for random internet person to send you a message and offer you a free BTC worth thousands of dollars.

This is well explained in this topic by Royse777: List of (un)known methods scammers user to scam users with honorable mention

Deposit before withdrawing
It mostly happens in gambling section but I have seen people coming up with currency exchange service and try this method.
The trick is very easy. You will see an ANN or service announcement of a new website out of nowhere. You will be given X amount of free BTC to try their website. You will spend those fee BTC and play games in their site. Instantly you will find yourself very lucky. You will make Y times of the X and once you will request a withdrawal they will ask you to deposit Z amount BTC. Once you will contact the support they will give this explanation that the primary deposit is required to verify your account. I have seen people to be trapped and lose their money. Do not send any single satoshi to anyone who will come to you with this method. Stay away, you have been warned.

As for legal actions, I’m not sure what you can do about it.  Scammers have most certainly ensured that they are difficult to identify, making it difficult to determine their location or true identity.

TheNineClub has reported one new scam website that I think belongs to this list as well. It looks like the same Whitebit clone as the others.

You SIR OR MISS are al Life saver! I was handed 0.2550 BTC and it was given to me on the website named Bitwave.ltd.

After asked to make wallet there. I entered bitwave to Google it goes to bitwave.io (I THINK) can’t recall o showed him screen (we were chatting on telegram I was new to that app too... anyway he said no type ltd.. why there and then got BTC address and I have to him next thing I have it in my account. The thing is IT STILL IS.. Only problem is my ACCOUNT is not Verified and you can ONLY VERIFY USING ANOTHER exchange sending BTC at 0.05 I think so $3,000 USD right now... like fuck off that’s huge to just “VERIFY” it should be THEY SEND YOUR ACCOUNT 0.0000001 BTC to verify.... or $0.13 Cents to bank and then you send it back.. whatever.... this is a BS verification!

I was CONTEMPLATING DOING IT TOO!! But this was back when BTC was $30k HA HA and the price was 0.005 BTC for verification so $300 at the time ... anyway this guy had BTC more than what he sent me and he had ETH and LTT about $18k BTC and 4K LTC and 2K ETH back in late December. HE SENT IT TO ME ASKING FOR HELP AS THIS WEBSITE BITWAVE.LTD (I THINK HE DEPOSITED AND GOT SCAMMED HIMSELF AND THEN BROUGHT ME TO THEIR SITE OF WHICH I HAVE REVIEWED IT AND FOUND IT A SCAM SITE).

So it stated he mails me after I said something of knowledge in a airdrop chat... he then mails me and I see it. Asking for help to transfer BTC to another account as HIS BITWAVE.LTD was restricted for 45 days or something from API abuse or something. I think he was being truthful and the website does have API integration and there are even videos of people auto trading on this website.. but I honestly think they are scammed or scamming.. After this he sent it. It was there like that. I had it. First I try to send to his other wallet on binance it won’t as I am new user (not verified) (he assumed I was verified or could verify by putting BTC in..) idk what he they thought.. anyway I still have the BTC 5 months later and I had 1/4 in the trading area and I even brought 1 doge playing around before it stopped my ability to move stuff or trade or swap as it was nit verified.. anyway is Bitwave.ltd the website 100% a scam?

This guy was very much hoping I would send his BTC back and I could keep the 0.0550 minus and fees. Now that is or 0.05 from another source is the BTC I would have had to pay to verify.... damn so much adds up badly and I can’t do anything with the $16k odd worth of BTC in the account. It’s let it sit there and maybe get it out if it even is or becomes a legit trading site from use that people scammed keep using and then the funds work better for it to register as a business..I have low hopes but man being that I have 0.0000000000000 BTC and no zero crypto owned or invested because I simply don’t have the finances to be able to.. I have the knowledge to I can trade crypto and Forex but the money is the problem and I just can’t margin loan it’s to risky..

Anyway yeah hope one day the feds fix this BS Bitcoin syndicate and since they are BTC in my name
I get them back when they are worth $3million I’ll have $750k~ 👀 but I’d rather have 0.255 BTC in a real balance 😓 man I need a job to buy btc .. or a job paying crypto or a means to make much crypto types that it grows a portfolio that I can learn from and then buy the ones going up and also sell one going down/re buy (short) before it goes up (long) and make money this way with profits just adding to the pile or the pile in a yield pool or other grouping that grants interest for adding your coins to the pool. Heck you can do that and mine but it’s virtually the same thing. Just much more popular.!! If someone has a coin I can use to yield farm and or that can be placed into pools for mining please DM me and hook me up!! Also I need a mentor for trading crypto.

I have some funds but I want to margin trade. I need proper advise. I CANT PAY.. but if I make profits under your instructions or mentor ship I WILL SEND CURRENCY YOUR WAY. Be it in form of a payment for services perhaps it works that well we keep going each month and I pay you $100 a month for just the documents you sent me and and updates to your newsletter which had daily breakdowns or whatever an initial contact and text contact anytime that goes to $500 after 1st month then I decide you made me my first $1 million I give you a raise and pay you 10k a month and then even more the more profits I grow with you as my main lead man.

I am a machine and I am a mathematician who can read patterns on stock market like go and stop. The timing and other readers are so important to read the same time intervals but over different times and to understand where it’s moving for each time period, this is the first things new traders will learn to see in patterns when they learn to note patterns. Like not just the 📈📊📉 or /-\|<> any of these but patterns you see occur over different charts and that are yes in a up or down tree for or perhaps up then down or down then up or flat then down flat then up and so on anyway follow your instinct. NEVER RISK MORE THSN YOU CAN LOOSE!


Thanks again OP this was what I needed to know I’m very glad this has helped countless others and if I ever see it happening again I will know this is here in bitcointalk and I’ll refer people. This is so shitZz


How can we know we are on a good platform when this shit is going on.. I mean sure there are he main ones but man.. this is why people have avoided crypto.

 We need all The good WHITE HAT hackers to SHUT this shit down. If its possible??? I know they will make more but what if you weeded out the people doing it and the groups so that they stop making them and the replicas are gone so they can’t replicate them so easy.. destroy the source..!!!

The picture I saw in the main post of the pictures at the bottom there are 3 in a row the secon had a window in it on left side it had the crypto lists with their symbol. THIS WEBSITE IS completely different to the one I have coins on that are suspicious.. BUT THE CRYPTO LAY OUT AND ORDER IS EXACTLY THE SAME... why would this be.. sure I know Crypto often has an order it sits in when it’s in Max volume or Max price ect which this fake API Of a stock market for some Cryptos is there just for showS sure you can buy the crypto but what happens to it? What happens to the BTC your deposit to verify and then what happens if they lock your account they can do what they want..?? This is why I haven’t done anything suspicious to the support in the bitwave.Ltd please don’t isnt this site.. it might be real but many have had problems and I’m not depositing $3000 to verify to get out $16k that I won’t be able to... I just wonder what happens if it sits them in my account I wonder if my account is rally mine or if it’s theirs.. I mean it is theirs they own the we site so everything is theirs.. it’s like this website this post is not mine .. sure I wrote it but it’s actually owned by Bitcointalk.. and that’s just the way it is now. It’s why NFT get sold as Signed tweet not as Signed Digital Art but that’s just blah NFTs are a bit ehhh to me unless they are the Monnet burned and made digital then ok but random Cats and memes ...: man everyone want their own nee “Doge” 👀🧑🏽‍💻

I have two that are most definitely from this bunch, and two that seem to be from the same scam creators but are a bit (pun intended) different.

https://coinupwallet.com/en
https://geowexbit.com/

https://bycoinbit.com/
https://bitctoo.com/

[TheNineClub]

It a bit of a different design but the name could suggest the same people. 'Earn up to 112% daily!' they say. Well, if that does not trigger alarms I don't know what does After a bunch of people reporting the same design of the website, maybe they changed it a bit...

https://bitraderxpay.ltd/

[TheNineClub]

As reported earlier with bitraderxpay, I believe this might be the same group.

https://usdxtrade.com/

I was right about bitraderxpay as the site went offline, this seems to be the same design, but they have upped their game recently so it's harder to spot. If you can stick with the bigger exchanges that are legit.

[decodx]

I have a few more new domains to report.

Code:

https://coinex-change.com/
http://www.viral.kz/
https://lutcoins.com/

Everyone should beware because these scammers search for victims on a variety of social networks and trying to lure them to these fake exchanges.

[CryptoCreateure]

The link for Bitwave.ltd don’t go there but it is a scam and people will send you or get you make a account and send you fake BTC on this test net that is on live servers. They send 8k USD btc then ask you to verify account costing 0.05BTC or 0.01 BTC thats $600-$3,200. Dom fall for it you won’t be able to withdraw the BTC and the funds added won’t be able to use to trade. If you do the funds will just end up being test net funds and the funds you deposit or any crypto you send will become into their bank and you will see test net balance of what you p
Purchase. Be scam wise and crypto scam aware. Read up on them every so often how people do them.

Scammers are everywhere same for ICO airdrops avoid them if they aren’t on a reputable paying place for every airdrop of its a telegram group or Twitter account of Facebook group don’t bother I did 130 of them and gained 1 token that turned live into a coin now worth $0.43USD  still I lost a lot with many phishing to email and calls to my phone from account being telegram needing my phone number and not had a burner to use.

Anyway yeah just thought I’d add lucky I didn’t fall for it but I nearly ddeposoted to binance to buy 0.055 BTC and then send to the shit site for activation or verification RED FLAG IF THEY WANT CRYPTO TO VERIFY ITS A SCAM.

Lucky I didn’t or have taken a loan out to have done it.. anyway be wise folks!
