Is www.crypto-comx.com legit?

[Potato Chips]

This forum never showed when I was looking up the site originally to see if it was legit.

Sorry for your loss, op.

I just wanna add, In hindsight, an exchange not showing up in popular crypto communities is actually a sign to step back as there's a good chance it's an obscure platform where there is zero reputation, same with a newly registered domain.

I seen a couple of y'all mentioned the site was created on November of 2023. That is not listed anywhere on the site when I go there so how did you find that information?

You can check this on any whois website e.g. whois.com. I wouldn't rely on what's written on the scammer's website since they control it and can always lie -- they always do.

Since it's very hard to do this in Apple store they added real link, and g00gle is to stupid to make a difference from original app  
It is insane to see this scam app have 29.7K reviews and similar rating...

Fake app:

Hmmm. it doesn't seem fake as I was redirected to the same URL from here: https://crypto.com/defi-wallet

Looks like they have 2 apps similar to coinbase:

For exchange/custodial services: https://crypto.com/app
and apparently a non-custodial wallet: https://crypto.com/defi-wallet

It's obviously a SCAM fake crypto.com website, and they are using fake android app for phishing attacks and to steal seed phrases from people.

Real Crypto.com app:

Actually, they are both legit, that's crypto.com defi wallet
Go here:
https://crypto.com/eea/defi-wallet
and see how it links to

Code:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.defi.wallet

The first one is the cypto.com app centralized wallet linked to your crypto .com account the other is non-custodial defi wallet

Lol, @ Potato chips going ninja on me!

Is www.crypto-comx.com legit? I tried to withdraw funds after 3 previous withdraws were confirmed and successful. Now that a friend transferred funds into my account on this platform, customer service rejected the last withdrawal and said I must pay a fine 2x the amount of the friends transfer so I must pay $30,972 to verify which will be in my USDT wallet and can be withdrawn once verified. It sounds like a scam but now they have my money locked to where I can't withdraw it. Anyone ever dealt with this site before or heard of this? I have reported them to the Securities and Exchange Commission to see if they can help.

The exchange platform is a scam and there's no way a legit crypto exchange will ask you to make some amount of crypto before you can withdraw the funds you have on the exchange.
I believe the 3 previous withdrawals you did on the exchange that went through were used to make you trust them with huge funds.
In the future, I will advise you not to use the exchange that is not highly recommended on this forum
Hope you never provide the exchange your private documents or information.

I still wonder how people like you ends up going with these websites. I don't think that you're shilling since you've mentioned it that it's likely a scam and most shillers will even encourage people to deposit. Right now, I think that "friend" of yours was just a random dude you've met online CMIIW.

Many people explore the internet in search of new ways to trade or exchange money, but unfortunately, some end up falling for scams or facing situations like this. It's pretty clear that this is a scam site, having been created just two months ago. Did you take the time to research the website before investing in it? Have you asked others about their experiences with the site? It seems challenging now, as they've structured their scam in a way that requires you to deposit twice the amount you want to withdraw. While reporting them might b a good idea worth trying, if there's no resolution, resist the temptation to deposit more money. It's a scam, and unfortunately, there might not be much help available at this point.

Yeah, that might be one of their ways on how they end up with these random websites. And the problem with these people or newbies is that they're only going to bring up the question when they're done already and have deposited their money and tried to withdraw. It's no use at all when they've asked these questions because they've fallen for the trap already. Even with the report that he's going to do, the SEC or any reporting agency might just remind him to always be resourceful and check the website's authenticity before investing or depositing.
