It was about 11 days ago. I exchanged coins to play the game. However, they are not exchanging coins on the grounds that my wallet address is related to crime. I submitted all evidence and submitted both kyc and aml. However, the withdrawal has not yet been made. Does this make sense? I submitted everything. Now the company keeps telling me to wait and there is no response. help. I feel like publishing news.

I understand the frustration you may have at this moment. It seems you are accusing them of scamming. Isn't it? So, it's better to move this thread to the Scam accusation board instead of the currency exchange. Moreover, please follow the scam report format if you move it there.

You have a very slim chance of getting your money back from those scammers! Quoting images for visibility;

Changenow.io is probably one of the worst instant exchanges that you can use. If you take a look at their reputation in this forum, you will notice that it's really so bad, with so many scam accusations against them regarding holding user funds hostage. Please consider using no KYC instant exchange like eXch.cx next time.
Check out kycnot.me for more no KYC exchanges.
This thread is supposed to be in the scam accusations, so I reported it to the mods to move it there.

ChangeNow has a long history of technical issues, scam, delays in reply, incompetence of the support team and the excuse now is that your wallet is tainted or linked to dark activity. What is the nature of the data you provided to them, and did you deposit directly from an address connected to gambling services? In most cases like this, the solution is to issue a refund to your Bitcoin address, so make sure that you can reach the deposit address and ask them to refund the money to you. also contact this account ----> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1073450

It should always be emphasized that Bestchange is only monitoring and that they have no responsibility for the deal between the exchanger and the client. But they can certainly help in solving cases because of their authority.

Bestchange won't help in this specific case. Bestchange's stance is clear regarding AML/KYC disputes between exchangers and customers: if AMLBot (the service they are affiliated with) shows a high risk score, then Bestchange calls customer a criminal/terrorist and quits mediation. There are hundreds of such cases at feedback pages of their listed exchangers marked as "KYC/AML dispute" on their .ru domain and outcome is always same - customers lose funds. There is also a reason why Bestchange is listed as a 'taint proclaiming' service in the thread [Blacklist] of unreliable, 'taint proclaiming' Bitcoin services / exchanges

All of those links provided on how bad they are should have been seen by OP before if he did researched about them beforehand the transaction on this platform. However, I am not blaming him because when things go bad, that's the time when we try to search for the feedback of such platforms. It's either they're telling the truth about AML reason or they're just reasoning it out to discourage you for the exchange because it is taking time. Yet, I wish that this case will be solved OP and hopefully this thread gets their attention.

Thank you. This is the first time I know this information. I found myself sent them merits before, but I do not remember such a discussion. In general, it is wrong to distinguish between Bitcoin on the basis of its clean coins and dirty one. ChangeNow is not a service that I would recommend to someone and expect a perfect experience free of complaints or being scammed, so it is better to stop using or recommending it. I will try to contact @bestchange to see their opinion.

Off-topic quickly, but I just checked them out and they have a very limited offering and I've never heard of them before, so I kind of wonder if they have an established reputation. Unfortunately, there have been problems with them before <snip>
I didn't click through those links, but many scam accusations that are made here are never followed up on by the OP of the thread. But even if that isn't the case in any of those links, I have to think that they prove beyond a doubt that Changenow is a scam service, i.e., that every scam accusation is probably outnumbered by more than a few satisfied customers that you never hear from. But I could be wrong--and I also didn't know these instant exchanges (or at least Changenow) reviews the provenance of the coins you send them. Jesus.

It may worth a try contacting them but I am somehow confident of what they'll reply. I've been personally tracking all their messages, comments and actions (here, on russian Bits Media and their own platform) in regards to AML/KYC stance since they started to divide Bitcoin and concluded that they're either corrupt or forced to participate in the AML/KYC shitshow. Anyway, let us know about their reply once you have it.

I assume that OP isn't worried or OP's instinct didn't have anything that tells that changenow is a fishy website but in a way, it's kind of weird that OP knows about this forum and didn't even care to check here in hopes that there's no problems on that service, I guess to some degree, OP should know better the next time to ask questions first if they're unsure about something online that involves money. That kind of habit will definitely save OP from potential headaches, hopefully others would take note and never do what OP did so the cycle at the least isn't vicious if won't be stopping anytime soon.

Many scam accusations about Change team. They have a big ecosystem with many platforms but if they used to scam, they will be able to pull their scam trigger anytime on any platform they create. Changelly, ChangeNOW, NOWpayments.
NOWpayments are included in this ring too? Does that mean only its Custodial service of holding donations for you, or the entire platform? I am asking because I recently put a NOWpayments widget on a new website, so depending on the answer I get, I will need to look for some other donations provider. It is quite an annoying situation to be in.

I don't know deeply about them technically but I know they are from a same team. I had communication with ChangeNOW team in the past so I knew it from them. You can see a description at bottom landing page of NOWpayments.io too. I did not know when they added this information at the landing page but I remembered they did not have that description like 2 or 3 years ago. https://nowpayments.io/NOWPayments – 2023
Launched by ChangeNOW. NOWPayments combines all the best practices of the industry — we guarantee the best possible service quality for all our clients. We're ready to go 100% of the time, 24/7
They also have NOW wallet application too. https://walletnow.app

There will always be problems with people trying use these types of exchanges when they have a policy to ask for identification under their ToS to verify KYC/AML requirements. They can block transactions leaving their customers in limbo therefore using an alternative would be much better option.
If memory serves correct, the following are either fully or partially controlled/owned by the same group of people/companies:
Changenow Changelly NOWpayments Guarda Wallet Ink.one Evercode Lab Atomic Wallet

15 days have passed and I'm still repeating the same thing! But still the answer is the same. I don't think I'll get my coins back unless the culprit is caught. I would like to post news. Please explain where and how to post the news. https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/03/tnM4Z.png

Here again, I will tell you to go to Bestchange monitoring and leave negative feedback, where you will state the problem. It speeds them up considerably, they are very careful about their reputation there, unlike on this forum.
