[SCAM] Spectrocoin.com Scamming Users 2020

[s8r3g]

What happened::
On the 6th of february 2020 i bought some btc (not much, about 21 euro worth) using a Qiwy atm.The btc buy'n service is offered by Spectrocoin.I got the message that my deposit is succesfull.When i tried yo withdraw i got an error that i cant withdraw because i'm not verified.I applied to kyc and caried on with other things but something bothered me about this whole thing so i googled a little about Spectrocoin's verification.
Imagine my jaw dropped when i saw all those negative reviews on Trustpilot, Bittrust, Cryptoradar and many others all having the same problem, stuck funds, verification failing everytime, users not entitled to withdraw in any way.Btw...it seems that they are flagged on Bitcointalk too, wrongfully no?
I was thinking that maybe the ammount would be small to attract problems but oh boy...was i wrong.These guys want all, no qestions asked.
I got reject after reject for my kyc for the most puerile reasons, id address does not match (i entered the exact same address as it's mentioned in my id, punctuation and everything), there is not enough light in the pictures.I want to mention that today i was verified in under an hour by another exchange with the same pictures and documents, and in total i think i'm verified on more than 5 exchanges with the same pictures taken from my phone taken in the same lightning conditions and the same id.
The only one having trouble proccesing my kyc is Spectrocoin and yeah that raises some question marks.
The fun part is that yesterday i contacted the support regarding the verification issue and that i'm still waiting for a response on the latest submited kyc that was still under review.
I was promissed priority in handling my request of a quick fix regarding this problems i was having with they'r services.I want to say they were fast alright...it took less then 30 min to reject my kyc again for the same reasons.Needless to say enough it's enough.
Spectrocoin's business model, freeze  users funds invoking kyc and aml, users will likely never get verified using they'r services, they keep the money, smart no?
I cant say that i dont afford to cover my losses and move on, but i just cant have the hearth to let them  get away with things like this in 2020!

Amount Scammed: 0.00221312 btc/21 eur
Payment Method: Bitcoins
Proof of Payment:
Attached Screenshot (The wallet address it's empty so i cant provide tx but the ammount appears in the wallet??!)

Additional Notes: I advise you to not deal with Spectrocoin in any way if you dont want your funds frozen without the possibility of withdrawn regardless of the documents provided!
Also beware, the reviews on Trustpilot of the users who got scammed using the same technique are being reported one by one by Spectrocoin and the reviews cant be seen by the audience.In the meantime Spectrocoin's ok having all the users funds on they'r disposal and the scam business goes on.So a word of advice for whoever got the same problems with them, leave ur' review on Bitcointalk, Bittrust and Cryptoradar, Twitter and so on, so that the information reaches the right audience.

Thanks & stay safe

Update: After posting my problem here and there, my verification got accepted with the same documents that were rejected in the first place and i was able to withdraw, imagine that.My advice, if you encounter a problem similar to mine, dont keep it to yourself and let others know about it.Information is the best weapon we have.Stay safe everyone and best of luck.

@ OP

Yes it well known that Spectrocoin are major scammers, they use any excuse possible to try to steal from users and KYC/AML is top of the list. You are not the only person that has sent off all documents to Spectrocoin/Bankera low-life scammers only to be told a variety of lies which are excuses to without the balance.

These scammers made millions from the scam ICO yet have still not provided any tangible product, they are simply enjoying their lives living off funds that belong to other people. They did the same thing when they had their ICO with their Bankera scam too

Along with all their scams including the fake UK company phone number last year, these pathetic low-life scammers still have no company phone number: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=577176.msg52441878#msg52441878

These scammers at Spectrocoin have still not modified their fake London phone number: +44 20 3769 5474





Give them a telephone call. We pointed out to them nearly a year ago that their fake London number was exposed but they never did anything about it. Spectrocoin/Bankera scammers are among the lowest of the low-level thieves.

OP how i wish you had first done some research before using Scamtrocoin.com. There have been a lot of threads here about their wide spread scam. The stupid tactic of asking your to fulfil KYC and then later denying if afterwards is meant to block you from ever having hope of getting your funds again. Just look at the generic response from their so-called Support and rep account here. Typical of scammers.

[john_jones]

I dont understand all this crying here. Im personally happy knowing that they work in compliance with the law. It gives me the confidence that my funds are safe.

I use Spectrocoin for several years without any issue, and everything has always worked smoothly. Beside that, their live chat support has always helped me instantly. When i was asked for additional documents and they were rejected, they always specified the reason and, after simply following the requirements, my account was verified.
Maybe you could simply do the same? 

[JollyGood]

We exposed them in their now locked threads for Bankera and Spectrocoin, it is a pity the OP got scammed.

These Bankera/Spectrocoin low-life scammers are using a mailing address for their public company to fool people as it looks cool to have a London address on the website but it can be rented for less than 100 EURO per year just to receive mail and be forwarded to Lithuania or anywhere else these imbeciles are actually located:

@ JollyGood I see that you and your companions are still up with your agenda against Bankera/Spectrocoin. Always the same bullshit.
What are your real intentions behind it? Are you been paid for some competitor?

Who got scammed here? For now, everything this guy is saying is that he failed in pass the KYC, and was asked to do it again. Still waiting for his update about the case...

[JollyGood]

As for their fake London telephone number that is another mistake only a pathetic scammer would make: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2091093.msg52438740#msg52438740

Their sock-puppet logins used to pump their propaganda will no doubt start posting in this thread

Woow, this particular john_jones profile last posted on September 25, 2019 after bumping the Bankera thread... Now as soon as a legitimate scam accusation appear, the account immediately comes out of a 5 months hiatus just to defend and shill for the scammers... Why am I not surprised.

Another Bankera/Scamtrocoin Sock puppet account
1.  Very stupid
2.  Very unprofessional
3.  Scammers

Qiwy are scams ATMs.

[JollyGood]

Well with it being 2021 and Bitcoin price well above $30,000 these scammers are not going to go away instead they will try their best to scam even more. For those that helped bring their scams out in the open who can forget them locking their Bankera scam thread and Spectrocoin scam threads as soon as complaints piled up.

SpectroCoin son estafadores. Compre Bitcoins con tarjeta de crédito y más tarde recibí un consumo de USD 888 que no fue autorizado. Me clonaron los datos de mi tarjeta de crédito. Son una red de estafadores que está a nivel mundial.

Estas son las Urls de los estafadores

Estoy seguro que habrán muchas otras páginas de esta red.

Are you sure it was cloned because of the Spectrocoin scammers? Is it possible you used the card in other places too and one of those cloned it?

Forum members did advise everybody to stay from the team that controls the Spectrocoin and Bankera scam websites. Did you contact your credit card company to ask for a clawback on the amount that was scammed?
