Are you sure that you purchased Bitcoin (BTC) and not Bitcoin Cash (BCH)?

Check whether your mobile app is updated. If the app is not updated it will not show up there. The link that they sent you was it the Blockchain link?

It will take 6 confirmation to show your balance. You can check on explorer. Do you own private key or seeds of this wallet?

I am not sure how to verify that.  I just have the links they sent me

Then share the links here, so that we can see everything. The thing with bitcoin.com though is that it is run by people behind the Bitcoin Cash so perhaps you fall for the trick that you think you bought bitcoin but instead it was the alt coin Bitcoin Cash.

Well, you're sharing links to a BitcoinCash(BCH) transaction. Did you specifically bought BitcoinCash(BCH) and not Bitcoin(BTC)? Or what? Hope you know the difference of both because they're definitely not the same thing.

If you were planning on buying Bitcoin(BTC), then you should've chosen this option:



The owner of the bitcoin.com website intentionally named Bitcoin as Bitcoin Core on his website in the hopes of making people buy the coin he's promoting, Bitcoin Cash(BCH).

bitcoin.com has been scamming people for a couple of years now, they advertise that they are selling "bitcoin" but when beginners like you that aren't familiar with certain details go there and buy "bitcoin" they end up with an altcoin that this site has created and owns called "bitcoin-cash" and is trying to sell in the name of bitcoin because they have no other way of getting people to buy their shitcoin.

sorry to say that you were ripped off.

It's not too late if you want to sell it back. You might lose some dollars but that's better than losing all of your money.

Sell your BCH and don't repeat your mistake.

how do I sell it ?

how do I sell it ?

Depending on what country you're in, but personally I'd go with Binance[1]. Create an account, send the BCH over, and sell it for BTC.

And of course, make sure to withdraw the BTC after and store it on a reputable wallet.

Its mind boggling how many people get tricked into buying Bitcoin Cash when they wanted to buy Bitcoin due to Bitcoin.com website.

For most of us we know the difference between BCH and BTC and we also recognise the symbols but for many new adopters they can easily get tricked. For many new people they see "Bitcoin" and they think its the same thing. Kind of like that Visa Debit that some people have on their bank cards. Basically its not exactly a credit card, its a bank debit card but it behaves like a credit card and many assume that Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin is the same thing.

I understand that people should see one priced at $7000 and the other at $180 and that should set off some clues but many people can miss that if they are new or in a hurry. This in general is not good for the community, because people will get Bitcoin Cash and wait for their Bitcoin, it will never arrive ,they will get upset that they have been scammed and just avoid anything crypto related all-together and move on to Stocks or Forex.

For me it's "mind boggling" how comes there's no lawsuit about this. Somebody should sue them and bankrupt them. It's pure scam.

That's my problem. I can only send the BCH from the mobile app and my wallet is empty.

I can only see the BCH on the web link

You have looking once again you purchase with bitcoin cash or bitcoin, because have the same address between bitcoin cash and bitcoin wallet, but when you want to deposit you use mobile wallet or deposit to your exchange account, every transaction have history and you can check with your history ID about your payment.

[cryp24x]

I think you have purchased BITCOIN CASH (BCH) instead of BITCOIN. The strategy of the team who created Bitcoin Cash and used the Bitcoin Website works really great for newbies like you. If you think you have been deceived then sell immediately your coins and buy the real Bitcoin.

[Baofeng]

Oh well, as I have suspected, you are mislead to think that you purchased BTC. Sorry that you fell for them, BTC = Bitcoin Core. Roger Ver is really shady as f**k.
