Frozen withdrawals at AutoHashMining.com

[acanary]

Does anyone here have experience with AutoHashMining?

My withdrawals, starting on November 4th, were working normally up until November 20th. Then the account suddenly became frozen and the tone of the 'admin' changed.

They are now claiming the following:

Hi,

Due to uk gov request so you need to pay the tax after it will work.

So your deposit is ... , you need to pay 30% tax is ...
Just deposit on any miner contract after your account will work again. and good news ,if you pay the tax and our company will also refund the tax after you paid its its only for 3 days.

Kind Regards.

How much is the loss? Most services like this are scams or Ponzi schemes in disguise.
The site details on Whois are hidden, my assumption is that this is a new cloudmining that started latest September 27 based on the first review on Trustpilot^[1]. If I pay attention to the one of 1-star reviews^[2], this con seems quite selective. You are left to withdraw several times for small amounts before users deposit larger ones.

If you had read a little about some of the topics about cloud mining on the forum, you would not have fallen victim to these scammers. Search a little about cloud mining topics on the forum and you will find that everyone agrees that they are scammers.

Cloud mining is a big lie practiced by fraudulent companies to defraud users who do not have enough experience to know that there is no such thing as cloud mining in reality.

This is an illusion, there are hundreds of people who have been scammed out of their money by cloud mining, so sorry to tell you that you lost your money and will never get it back.

[acanary]

How much is the loss?

It's just monopoly money and we know where they live. No loss at all. A win.

Do you know of any legit ones at all? I hadn't played around with crypto for years and decided to try this service on a whim, blindfolded, mostly for fun, just to see what would happen. Still knee deep in scamcoin, I see!

Hilarious. Hey, at least they tried to lower the 'tax' from 35% to 30%! Gettin' innovative!

The funniest is when the email responses are in garbled, barely coherent English. As if ground beef trying to reconstruct itself to formulate words.

This is surely a scam. Are you sure that address is correct, it would be dumb of the scammers to publish their real address.

You will probably not find any legit cloud mining services, they are mostly scam services. The only person that makes money from it is the scammers who are the cloud mining providers.

Some scammers put little to no effort into their trade, and still get victims nevertheless.

Bitcoin/crypto cloud mining platforms are either:

• a scam
• unprofitable

It's really just one or the other. If you want to take risk, you're better off with carefully-picked shitcoins honestly. Hope you didn't lose much.

'Mostly'. So there is literally no known instance in the bitcointalk.org fossil record of a legit cloud mining service?

Not this time. They are operating at quite a growing loss as we speak.

Yeah, that isn't their real address. Those are published elsewhere.

So you know the game? you shouldn't open this topic because (I think) you know how you'll end up. Plus, people here wouldn't bother seeking experience with shady companies like you did if they knew.

[acanary]

So you know the game?

The game? I am but a humble canary, sir, but I'm familiar enough!

you shouldn't open this topic because (I think) you know how you'll end up.

I know how the 'owners' of AutoHashMining.com have already ended up. (It ended badly for them).

In the interim, I'll keep updating this thread with my frozen withdrawals so we can all watch the seizure occur in slow motion.

A public service of sorts, for the sake of comedy and all that.

Jesus buddy, you didn't even have to test it to see that there is only one way business that offers "up to 14% daily" can end up. Its like an equivavlent of sending money to a Nigerian prince that contact you via email to see what will happen.  

Do you know of any legit ones at all

Just forget about it and buy bitcoin instead.

[rat03gopoh]

Lemme guess early.
"Finally, they released my withdrawal, it's legit."

I think so.

[sunsilk]

All of those commissions and bounties percentage promising per day profit is already a red flag, they're all too good to be true.

So there is literally no known instance in the bitcointalk.org fossil record of a legit cloud mining service?

Most of those that have been said as "legit" in the past have also turned around and became the same to this company that disabled your withdrawal.

Do you know of any legit ones at all?

Buy your own asic miner and mine for real or simply follow what rikfip has said of buying your own Bitcoin and simply hold it.

I didn't even read the site. I'm an experimentalist ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hahaha, nah, just for satire and to see how long the replacements try to keep the site up. Although it would be funny if withdrawals did suddenly become unfrozen.

The unimaginable novelty of it! An asset seizure in reverse!

I keep seeing the word 'most' in this thread, but never any examples of an exception to the rule. One of those 'name it and it dies' things, I suppose.

That's how ponzi works though, working fine at early stage, withdraw here and there until it become unprofitable anymore then vanish. The rekt ones are the last one who entered the game. Usually, the large daily interest rate, attract greedy people to enter the game.

The "most" words is usually used in cloud mining because some of them are still operating and still "paying" but the maintenance fees are so high that it looks like your not getting profits at all not until you deposit or buy another hashpower, this sounds like genesis mining, bitdeer, tophash, even binance's cloud mining service.

So true! I once fell for something like this years back, they said it was cloud mining and they paid me dividends either twice or thrice and they stopped my withdrawals then they started prompting me for upgrade even after subscribing for the third to the highest miner. I had already subscribed using 1 bitcoin, then 1 btc was a little over $600.

I just concluded it was a scam and signed out, the challenge was that I aready introduced people into it after I recieved my initial reward of 0.005btc.

 In total I was not paid upto 3% of my investment sum. It was really a bad experience for me.

Comedy time!

Hi,

Due to uk gov request so you need to pay the tax after it will work.

So your deposit is ... , you need to pay 30% tax is ...
Just deposit on any miner contract after your account will work again. and good news ,if you pay the tax and our company will also refund the tax after you paid its its only for 3 days.

Kind Regards.

I let the miners run for a while, then returned to pay the 30% tax requested by the uk gov.

The response:

I checked it, you need choose buy new miner contract, and can't paid from account balance.

Kind Regards.

So the government tax can only be paid with a new deposit.

My account accumulated far more than what was owed to the uk gov, but I was not allowed to use my own balance to pay it.

[acanary]

December 8th, 2023. Here's my account balance after paying taxation to the uk gov:
https://talkimg.com/images/2023/12/09/Ed2pa.png

On the 25th of November, my pending withdrawal was $611.1046. Today, it is somehow $438.0961!

I haven't received a new withdrawal since starting this thread, yet there is somehow a $173.0085 difference in what is owed to me.

So, if they're just moronic commonplace scammers, why is the 'Pending Withdrawal' field down $173 in two weeks?

That is, if they actually had control of the site, wouldn't they be able to maintain the illusion of the initial $611.1046? Lol.

[rat03gopoh]

So you end up paying the 30% "tax" out of your own pocket? Does this count as a new loss?

No loss at all. A win.

So, if they're just moronic commonplace scammers, why is the 'Pending Withdrawal' field down $173 in two weeks?

If they succeed in deceiving people, what is the appropriate taunt for the victim? Looks like I just found one.
Btw, you can also pay 30% UK tax through me like the owner of this site did. I'll print you proof of payment which is almost identical
