Freebitco.in is probably hacked and they are well aware of it

[Cacenn@outlook.com]

Last 27th march i sended 2000€ to an account, which shown in the deposit box.

money not arrived, contacted them, they not answer

Made another account, its impossible that people even know about it. new email new account new passwords guess what, money has sended out and when clicking deposit it shows a new address (not mine). , logout login, still it stays there, in my account settings/profile it shows the origin. other devices also show that bitcoin address

what te fuck is going on?
oh and I am not the only one had this issue,
no my deviceS (multiple systems apple, samsung and even windows pc) are  not hacked, compromissed or so on. updated with scanners for spyware and so on, nada!

Have you checked whether the money you sent really went to the deposit address? Check the deposit address on blockchain explorer, to be sure that the tx is correct and safely executed.
For example, there is clipboard malware, which will replace the address during the copy/paste process

[Cacenn@outlook.com]

Ofcoarse the money went to that accounts, from there it moved to several accounts.

I am aware of that kind of malware, again my different devices has non, has been scanned and checked.

what I mean is as soon as you click on the depositbutton it shows YOUR address.
but here its already changed, its different then your address as shown on the profile page. also is shown in old addresses. it stays changed regardless you log out and in again or refresh the page or if you logged in on other devices.

this is not some sort of copy / paste error.

first I thought I might accidently have clicked the generate new address button but thats not the case.

[BitMaxz]

Do you mean that the deposit address even though you created a new account on freebitco.in is the same deposit address?

Have you tried to use another internet connection or a data sim? Because I'm thinking about the router it might be infected with malware/virus.

or Better report your issue @TheQuin that's the only user that I know currently active here that works on freebitco.in

[Cacenn@outlook.com]

I made another account and also there sudden the deposit address has changed, even said on the mainpage of a friend that freebitco.in will stop with legacy addresses.

the router cant be the issue also, the first happened at my work, this just happen now at home.

freebitco.in is not responding and reading other posts on this forum, like about the winner of the lambo round 10 ed. seems that @thequin is magiccly dissapeared or not active on this forum recently.

[khaled0111]

Did you get that yellow box notification telling you that your deposit address has changed?
If that's what happened then you are not the first one who reported that problem. See:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5492456.0
When I read the aboce thread I thought this attack is targeting only high rollers but it seems I was wrong!
What is really concerning is the silence of freebitco.in team!

yes, like mentioned I even made printscreens..

And yes we are a group of high rollers indeed, have not have issues like this before...

yes all of this as described i wish i can upload the photos

new accounts, new mail address only used for freebitco.in, 2FA enabled. and everything as described...

so yes the address had been changed and i thought it was either freebitco changed the address or i hit the button myself. then I sended the cash but never arrived.

@thequin is magiccly dissapeared or not active on this forum recently.

The last active date is April 11, 2024 maybe they are still on vacation? Since it's summer maybe they are on vacation and they didn't know that their site is currently under attack and the hackers are taking advantage while their staffs are currently on vacation?

Since you said you are still able to see the address under old addresses then maybe you accidentally clicked the new deposit address?
If you are sure you didn't click it then you should still be able to receive it even if it is under on old deposit address.

Maybe the BTC you send is still unconfirmed better check the transaction on any Bitcoin explorer and try to use blockchair.com to check the transaction because according to them it needs 1 confirmation if it still unconfirmed then that's the issue.

[Cacenn@outlook.com]

mate, exactly as mentioned. i was also in the top 10 during march 25-26 and 27th of march my bitcoinaddress has changed. And so i sended 2000€ worth of bitcoin to there. also it has been changed back to the old address, right after. and guess what after 1 month i am pretty f***** sure there are above 300 confirmations already.

now with my new account I have been in that list and made the first position but ended up 3th at last.
still i was able to get some profit and cashed it out yesterday.

then today my accountaddress suddenly has changed and my little leftover bitcoinsatoshis dissapear, since they not click on the confirm mail it has been sended back. i quickly changed the pass and enabled 2fa on the new account, so i was saved by the bell.

and no i said i thought i clicked on change address but i didnt do it.

as expected that script is still active on the site.

And sure they can be on holiday, but do you leave a billion dollar bussiness unattended?
also i sended them several mails since 27th of march even they went on holiday from april 11th what have they done this 14 days that they still were active with my mails or those other people with the same problems. This is already ongoing for 1 month atleast.

And I am sure the 12,5 bitcoins I lost during the years can afford them an all inclusive holiday with hookers and swimmingpools of champagne. but how long they can be on holiday more???

Even they are back I dont think they will compensate those high rollers (me included) even the faulthy script is on their website.

how to upload pics here?

According to what we know from this forum, this whole operation is under the control of only two people, and therefore it is not even realistic to expect someone to answer your e-mails. The only option is to send a PM to @TheQuin (the link to his profile is already posted) and hope he sees the message and does something about it.

We get some help from a PR consultancy for the marketing, social media etc. and a friend of wetsuit's who helps out with the HTML coding and page design. Other than that it's just the 2 of us.

how to upload pics here?

You can do it because you don't have the appropriate rank yet, but you can post links and someone will quote the post and the pictures will be visible. In the meantime, read (if you haven't already) just enough to get an insight into how problems are solved.

(RESOLVED) FREEBITCO.IN SCAM, DEPOSIT NOT CREDITED

[NK345]

And I am sure the 12,5 bitcoins I lost during the years can afford them an all inclusive holiday with hookers and swimmingpools of champagne. but how long they can be on holiday more???

it seems you have also been scammed as many of us high rollers. 
check this thread where one user has identified the malicious script:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=320959.msg63923149#msg63923149

you probably also have the same malicious script "Cashtravel" which need to be blocked with Adblock or some other tool.

DONT DEPOSIT ANY MORE FUNDS on this site. 
It is going down, for sure.  Over a month has passed since the first complaints, and they have still not fixed this malicious script on their site...

OR, what seems more likely is that they have implemented their own scam in their own website so that they can steal the high roller's money and claim that it is due to their infected computers, when in fact it is freebitcoin themselves.

They don't answer to any of the support emails, nor TheQuin has provided any answer even though he has been seen active a few times in this month on the forum. 

WHAT KIND OF A SHIT SITE WOULD DO THIS?    50+ million users, and god knows how many lost BTCs to them.   

This site will be out of business very soon

Today I received an email from freebitco.in notifying me that I had won tenth place in the referral wagering contest. USER ID 12591058. My first ever prize!

Seconds later I received a further email asking me to confirm a payment request.

Strange, because I had not made any payment request.

I changed my password and enabled 2FA.

I then initiated an instant withdraw request for some amount. After I submit the withdrawal request my account balance drop instantly to zero.

Strange, because I did not withdraw the entire balance.

Additionally, I did not see a pending withdrawal notification on the freebitco.in page as I usually would.

Within minutes I received a payment sent confirmation email from freebitco.in saying, "We have just sent a payment of 0.00096832 BTC to your bitcoin address 17L1uyaWdFmKSnCCoG1Sk9xSvhegdg3FZE".  

https://www.blockchain.com/en/btc/tx/c2e76e8865c2757c040f0f58b12866eaa6d2426aea40b4dcedfb527e36e9f0bb

Strange, because I had not received a payment request email from freebitco.in as I always do so I did NOT confirm the payment. And, unsurprisingly that is NOT my Bitcoin address.

I have contacted freebitco.in support and am now waiting for a response.

Code:
What happened: over the month of April, I had made large deposits of $2,000 at least three times and made my way into the monthly wagering contest. As one of the top 10, I ended up winning the contest at number 7 for a total of $500. Upon winning I received an email confirming my victory
https://i.imgur.com/rW1fvb7.png
However, less than a couple minutes later I noticed that my balance was drained and set to zero and I had gotten an email stating that I had made a withdrawal request which I did not make. I didn't even have time to.
https://i.imgur.com/mvHbjQf.png
I did not confirm the withdrawal as in I did not click the link. Therefore, it should be sent back to my balance within an hour.
I immediately started to change my 2fa and my passwords to keep my account secure.
https://i.imgur.com/svUWSzf.png
https://i.imgur.com/fjLAS4W.png

While in the meantime My unauthorized request was canceled because the hour had lapsed. And the money was put back into my account.
https://i.imgur.com/olzcwZM.png

I also had changed my deposit address into my crypto.com  wallet and made that into my default address.
Scammed by freebitco.in https://imgur.com/gallery/3HUWdyy

I tried to cash it out however it got sent to a totally different address supposably my Bitcoin wallet on freebitco.in and it happened to be my old address so I changed my default address yet it sent it to my old address which I don't know how it did that
 Here are two screenshots of how I don't even know this is possible.
https://i.imgur.com/UNGWjUh.png
https://i.imgur.com/1kUxsDW.png

Now since I enabled my 2fa. It made it so I no longer needed a to do a email confirmation before the deposit was sent so I never got a verification email.

However, I got a verification that the Bitcoin had been sent to this supposed old address which I never sent to. Furthermore, the balance never showed up.
https://i.imgur.com/pFhAN9p.png

Here is a screenshot of it being confirmed on the freebitco.in website saying that I got a deposit from myself, however it never showed up in my balance.
https://i.imgur.com/GHhcd9l.png


At that moment I was screwed. Here's a summary of what I think is going on.

Keep in mind that the owner of the website the Quinn fails to ever respond to problems his users face on his website. Here's the summary.


The 2fa thing is part of the scam.

They make a withdraw request which triggers the email.

As a result of an UN requested withdrawal the customer gets spooked and immediately changes there security settings in belief that this will help secure there account.

However, this is a trojan horse that that allows the  withdrawal confirmation request to be disabled.

Thus, the original attacker is able to capitalize on the ignorance of the individual who is thinking there securing there account by enabling there 2fa security measures.

Using fear to trap the individual into unknowingly let there defense down and be luted by either hackers or some one on the inside or backend of the freebitco.in site.

It's genius really but completely f***** up

Either way, security or no security measures anyone can be targeted rendering this website
Extremely dangerous for anyone who has a balance.

This happened to me the other day right after I had won the wagering contest 7th place $500.

We can speculate all we want as to whether or not the websites secure .

But the fact that the matter is there's a few of us that would like to get the hard-earned money that we won.

So we can keep talking about what's wrong with the website or we can discuss how we're going to make reparations to these individuals.

However, if it's an inside job, there's little chance for recovering the funds other than reporting to the FTC and financial crimes units.

Mr. Quinn in my opinion is either part of The problem by allowing this to happen or he's directly involved. Either way, he's guilty by association because he knows his website's faulty and he fails to do anything about it.

And I also have another issue which I doubt will ever get solved. But I ordered a hardware wallet with my hard-earned reward points. I never got that wallet and I never got refunded my reward points but that's an issue for some other time I guess. Or that ship is already sailed which sucks.
