I am not getting what do you mean by sending a username and password with fake 20 Bitcoin by "mistake"? If they are spamming on the mail and sending the above credentials, then it won't be by mistake. They are consciously sending fake accounts with fake Bitcoin. It's not a mistake at all. They have collected leaked mail lists somehow and spammed this way. Often I have been receiving such as mail with accounts credentials and files. But I just delete everything immediately. They are direct scammers, stay away from them.

Coinforte, bitforte I have had emails sent from these people, its clearly a scam as nobody is going to just give you 20 bitcoins.
The only benefit I had was with bitforte as I used a throwaway phone number, got in and took 0.0001 BTC as a "validation" for withdrawal, if you try and take anymore, they require you to deposit over 0.02 BTC.

Its a scam, the domains are very new too, but hey I got a free 6 dollars worth of bitcoin.

Thanks for the warning OP.
This is one of the common types of scams. When you log in using the username and password they sent to you and try to withdraw the fake coins, they will tell you that the coins are locked (for some bs reason) and you have to make a deposit first.

I remember reading a similar story but can't find the link to it. Not sure it was you or someone else but then the OP had to contact the support team to convince them to change the phone number so he could confirm the withdrawl request.

I have encountered such scammers before, it is an old tactic of theirs but it is enough to scam greedy people. They will communicate with you in such a way that they are very inexperienced in such matters. The link that the scammer sent me had 2 BTC deposits on the website, but this exchange is banned in the country from which he has deposited in the exchange! So he is trying to withdraw the fund with someone else. And promised to give him a 30% commission to help withdraw that fund.

So like he said, I went to withdraw and see 0.02 BTC needs to be sent for verification! If a person is greedy and deposits 0.02 btc on that website in the hope of getting 30% btc, then he will be a victim of scam. So it is very important to verify the authenticity of any tempting offer.
