FRAUD ALERT: Scam Exchange FixedFloat

[FixedFloatScam]

Hey everyone,

I’m here to expose an exchange, FixedFloat or ff.io that claims to be all about quick, secure, and anonymous transactions, but has proven to be nothing more than a scam. If you value your money and trustworthiness in your crypto exchanges, you need to STAY AWAY from this platform. Here's my story:

The Setup: A "No-Registration, Instant Exchange" Promise
I decided to give this exchange a shot after seeing their bold claim on their website:
"No registration, no need to share your personal details. We don't hold your funds, all exchanges take place instantly in fully automatic mode."

Sounds perfect, right? No paperwork, no personal data sharing, just quick and seamless crypto transactions. So, I deposited my BTC (from my wallet) — a 3K$ deposit — and everything went smoothly. No issues, no delays. The exchange processed my BTC, and within minutes, I received my USDT. Everything seemed great so far, right?

The Red Flags Begin: The Second Transaction
Feeling confident in their service, I decided to do another transaction, this time for 4K$ worth of BTC — exactly the same UTXO address as the first one. Here’s where the nightmare begins.

After 10 minutes, the exchange froze my funds. No reason given. I reached out to their support, and after the typical "for security purposes" nonsense, they started demanding KYC documents.

But here’s the kicker: I had already explained to them exactly how I acquired the coins via the Exch. I provided clear information on-chain on where the funds came from, and still, they refused to release my 4K$ worth of BTC.

The Lies and Deception
Their support team responded slowly, almost as if they were purposefully delaying things. They would only reply once a day, dragging out the process. Each response was a generic "for security purposes" message with no real explanation or action taken.

They kept telling me that my BTC address was now “high-risk”, but here's the most ridiculous part: They let me complete the first 3K$ transaction with NO issue, then froze the second one from the same exact address! How can my address go from “safe” to “high-risk” in just 10 minutes?

And let’s not forget their hypocritical claims. "We don’t hold your funds," they say. Well, it seems they do hold your funds, at least long enough to prevent you from getting them back when they feel like it.

The Tactics of Deception: A Delay Strategy?
The real truth behind all of this is that they are deliberately stalling. They know that most people will eventually give up after weeks of back-and-forth and endless delays. These exchanges thrive on the fact that many customers don't have the time, resources, or patience to escalate matters and fight back.

It’s beyond frustrating. After weeks of them ignoring my requests, I feel like I'm being scammed, pure and simple. Not only have they frozen my funds without reason, but they continue to lie about “security” and use KYC as a tactic to drag things out.

Why This Is a Scam
Misleading Marketing: The exchange's advertising is a lie. They claim "no registration," yet they're demanding KYC documents for a legitimate transaction.

False Claims: They boast that all transactions are “instant,” but they froze my funds for no reason.

Unprofessional Support: Slow responses, lack of transparency, and no clear reasoning behind their actions.

Unfairly High-Risk Labelling: My BTC address was labeled as "high-risk" after one transaction went through just fine.

Stalling Tactics: They take days to respond, leaving you in limbo, hoping you’ll just give up.

Conclusion: Protect Yourself!
I can’t emphasize this enough: DO NOT TRUST THIS EXCHANGE. Their system is designed to deceive you, freeze your funds, and waste your time. If they can’t offer transparency, professionalism, or consistency in their service, they should not be trusted with your crypto.

Please share this post far and wide so others aren’t caught in the same trap. I am going to continue escalating this and taking further action, but until then, I want to warn everyone about this fraudulent exchange.

Stay safe and always do your due diligence!

"No registration, no need to share your personal details. We don't hold your funds, all exchanges take place instantly in fully automatic mode."

This is a very common practice with instant exchangers. They say something in big font on their main page, and say the exact opposite in the fine print in their terms.
There's a reason their Trust summary looks like this: it's an anonymous website using KYC as a reason to keep funds.

Hello OP,

I have added your report to our master thread.

(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5550083.msg65585279#msg65585279)

From now on, I will gather and track all the abuse and scam reports connect with FixedFloat

I will do my best to warn others and help them avoid falling victim to these called 'no KYC' platforms and selective scammers like FF.

Never ever go with what those instant exchanges say in their homepages. It's always a lie. Ensure you confirm everything by yourself by reading different reviews, the terms of service and always stick to privacy promoting websites like kycnot.me for ratings and better alternatives

If I am not mistaken, I think I read from somewhere that fixedfloat would block any funds from Exch.cx when it was still operational. This was part of the war that was opened by some centralized exchanges like bybit on Exch.cx because they had refused to follow their narrative of blocking user funds.

Yeah but they let me exchange 3k$ first and then block then next 4k$ FROM THE SAME UTXO. Within 5 minutes.

and you look like you are laundering funds 3k then 4k within a day

what did you expect.

good luck getting it back.


And I meant to be insulting so that others won't do what you did.

[LoyceV]

Exchanging funds is not laundering funds. If I'd have to exchange 7k and can only use a shitty exchange, I'd make it as small as 20 transactions in a row, so they can't scam me much.

[bias]

Firstly, I think that this thread belongs to the Scam Accusation board and not here. Secondly, I'm sorry to hear about this. It's always sad and uncomfortable hearing such cases. Lastly, these kinds of exchangers are risky as hell. You never know when you will get burned, and exchange on them big amounts of money (laundering them or not) isn't the wisest thing that someone can do. As LoyceV said above, the best way to exchange in such questionable exchangers is little by little. I hope that you will get back your money, but honestly, I found it more than hard.

Maybe they were baiting you. Maybe the first transaction was "flagged" but then it was too late for them to freeze it and were just hoping you make another one. Just because they let your first transaction go through doesn't mean that they will do the same for all other transactions you throw to them. That is the problem with such exchanges. You never know when they will decided to freeze your funds.

Please stick to real no KYC exchanges if you don't want that kind of stress.

They hide behind their AML policy to freeze funds whenever they want.

No I did batches so in case they freeze my money they won't freeze all of them. I hope others will do exactly what I did, batches so they don't end up losing all the funds.

Can you name few of them for me? I'd appreciate it if you do, struggling finding a trustworthy one.

i think u still tried to convert in too large chunks

next time, try to convert/exchange in smaller quantities

even though u might end up paying more in fee and conversion charges

but that exchange won't be able to freeze a big amount

it might take a little while but at-least this would be safer imo
