[SCAM] go-go.exchange STOLE 11000 USDT

[The Cryptovator]

Hello , Denis.
Unfortunately, we are forced to require you to pass KYC, these are not our requirements, but the requirements of the regulator. This is a standard situation when you need to pass verification, especially since before the transaction you agreed to the terms of exchange and verification. The same conditions apply to all exchangers that care about the safety of their own and their clients, in other cases these exchangers send non-clean cryptocurrency to their other clients. Please pass KYC verification.

Why do you allow users to proceed with the exchange without verification? If you force KYC verification, then don't allow users to make any exchange with KYC verification. So that you don't need to make drama later. You can't raise a flag against a transaction if it's fresh and has been claimed by the OP. I admit OP marked onagree about your terms, which included KYC verification. But since OP isn't agreeing to verify KYC, and he forwarded from Best_Change, where you are not tagged as a KYC exchange. A mistake happened by the OP, but there should be a solution. Either complete the exchange or refund his funds. Because the funds aren't yours. You don't have the right to hold it. Return to the same address as said by the victim as well.

I will ask OP to please create a flag; from my end, I will also create a flag as well. For now I leave a negative red tag for the exchange. I will remove it when OP gets a full refund or exchange.

Hello everyone,

I want to inform you that the situation has not changed. At the moment, the exchanger is still holding my 11,000 USDT and will not give them to me.

It seems that they are just dragging out time and want me to calm down and forget about everything. They wrote to me 2 days ago that they are already trying to unfreeze my coins and will give me an answer tomorrow (yesterday). But yesterday all day they again only promised that the answer will be soon and nothing more.

I think that they just want the situation to calm down and keep my coins, but still, at least they do not just require KYC for each of my messages. It seems that things are moving and by creating additional publicity I can achieve results.

Those scam exchanges like go-go.exchange and FixedFloat etc. “compliance” is just an excuse for financial abuse and theft.

They hold your money, ignore any documentation sent and refuse transparency at every step.

Sorry OP



I leave a negative red tag for the scam exchange go-go.exchange

Hello , Denis.
Unfortunately, we are forced to require you to pass KYC, these are not our requirements, but the requirements of the regulator.

The same conditions apply to all exchangers that care about the safety of their own and their clients, in other cases these exchangers send non-clean cryptocurrency to their other clients. Please pass KYC verification.

Can you provide more information about exactly which regulator it is?
Also, can you post here proof that the regulator requires KYC of the user who sent the 'disputed' coins?
What will happen next with the KYC information you receive (if the user decides to take that step), and is it enough to return the money in the end?

@Denis_Verbinsky, Can you check whether the coins you sent are still at the deposit address from the order, or have they been sent further?

$11k usdt is no small amount of money and if passing kyc verification is the only thing this exchange is asking from you so that they can fully deposit your money into your account, then I guess you have no choice but to pass the kyc as required or requested,  you should have known better that when you deposit your crypto into any wallet belonging to any centralized service, you automatically lose control and give full control of your funds to the service you deposited your money to.

Everyone should keep one thing in mind when choosing exchanges. If you don't trust an exchange enough to send them KYC information, simply don't use it.

You should have also taken your time to read this exchange's term and conditions before choosing them since they are not popular, it wasn't enough relying only on what bestchange said concerning the exchange

They are currently excluded from monitoring on Bestchange.

Hello,

I have an urgent message for all you.

This service has gone completely crazy and now:
1. Accuses me of fraud.
2. Forbids me from publishing their methods of work, stating that if they do, they will steal even more of my money.
3. Refuses to return my absolutely clean coins, which are not tied to anything except licensed exchanges. (You can check this yourself in the blockchain).

I am forced to ask you to boycott this service and spread information about fraudulent methods of work.

1. First, they made me wait 24 hours, hiding behind the fact that they need time to process the payment.
2. Then they demanded to pass KYC, since my payment is more than $ 10,000.
3. Then they again said that you need to wait, and they will solve the issue. This went on for 2 days.
4. And now they have changed the reason for the KYC requirement again, accusing me of fraud, when in fact they are the scammers who constantly lie, lie, lie to avoid giving me money.

I urge you all to spread the word about the fraud that awaits you on this site if you accidentally choose it to make an exchange.

Yes, I made a stupid mistake by contacting a little-known company. BUT don't make my mistakes.

3. Refuses to return my absolutely clean coins, which are not tied to anything except licensed exchanges. (You can check this yourself in the blockchain).

There is just one detail which I think your thread is lacking which could have answered the question asked by @examplens, which is providing the address you use in funding the go-go exchange account, which the address could have been used to check if the money is still intact or if the exchange has moved it to their other wallet which could be considered as spent. I tried to get the address from the details you provided and it seems you moved the coin through multiple exchanges before your final destination.

This is the wallet that go-go gave me.

You can see here that they sent my coins to another wallet.

Thank you for sharing this update.

It's clear they don't care about protecting their reputation. . In addition to the AML check result you provided, I also used another platform and checked the RISK SCORE of your wallet address, which came out as Low. Therefore, I see no reason for this exchange to freeze your funds and keep them frozen until now. This proves they are scammers unless they attempt to prove otherwise.

I hope you don't give up and try to pressure them on review sites. I will also try to contact them to apply more pressure, hoping they will pay attention to your issue.

Once again, always do your research and check reviews of any exchange you use, especially if it’s a new or lesser-known one.

Thank you for your support.

This situation taught me a lot, but at that time I did not see any reasons not to trust an exchange office with an impeccable reputation. 130 positive reviews and 1 resolved claim.

Unfortunately, I was wrong.

Now they only accuse me of fraud and demand my personal data.

I am not going to give up, although this situation is very exhausting for me, I intend to get my money back, since this is a lot of money and it would be difficult for me to just forget about it.

Dear client, no one has stolen anything from you.
We expect you to verify KYC
This is not only our right but also a requirement of the regulator.
The fact that you do not pass verification speaks of your intention to defame us.
Dear colleagues and forum members, at the moment we have hired a company that is investigating this incident, we will resolve this situation in the near future.
Everyone present understands that this business is worth more than the funds that the client demands to return, but at the same time we cannot give in to manipulation from this client.
The issue is not about money, but about ensuring that this incident does not happen again, and this is not the first case with this client. A few weeks ago we had a similar situation with him.
We are forced to take such steps to protect ourselves in the future.
Everyone understands and knows that the requirements of the KYC / AML policy are mandatory and the client agreed to them even before creating the application.
With respect and until next time, the Go-Go team

I do not intend to provide my personal data to you.

You have still not shown any proof of your accusations.

I do not intend to provide my personal data to an exchanger that changes its rules after I have made an exchange and requires verification under the changed invalid agreements.

I will not back down until my you give me my coins back.

And this is my only exchange on your site, so stop coming up with more excuses to continue blocking my funds.

The client has the right to get back his money. Unless there’s clear proof they did something wrong, holding their funds isn’t fair.

Scammers often block withdrawals and demand unnecessary verification to prevent users from accessing their funds.

Are you one of them Go-Go.exchange?

This is the wallet that go-go gave me.

You can see here that they sent my coins to another wallet.

Pretty clear that Go-Go is just a WhiteBIT reseller - the on-chain transfer shows the funds went straight to WhiteBIT. What probably happened is that WhiteBIT froze the funds, and now Go-Go can’t really do anything about it.

That’s basically how these guys operate: they’re not doing the exchange themselves. They just take your crypto, pass it to WhiteBIT (or whoever their liquidity provider is), collect a small cut, and wait for the trade to go through. If something gets flagged on the other side, like in this case, your money gets stuck and Go-Go hides behind some "KYC/regulatory" excuse.

The problem is, you think you’re dealing with an exchange, but really you’re dealing with a middleman who has zero control once the transaction hits the backend.

[Denis_Verbinsky]

Today I have the first good news.

Finally, BestChange answered me that they will delete this exchanger if no confirmation of the reasons for blocking on the part of the exchanger is provided.

Today is already 9 days since I lost access to my coins, but monitoring gave me hope, this is the first ray of sunshine in this impenetrable gray sky of fraud.

That's really encouraging news @Denis_Verbinsky!

Keep pressing them...

Sometimes public pressure is the only way to push shady exchanges to act responsibly.

This is positive news for you, I hope bestchange takes appropriate action against such exchanges so that other crypto users do not have to be harassed in this way. I myself spoke to go-go.exchange about your issue and explained to them the best way to resolve your issue, but they didn't keep their word, they still haven't refunded your funds.

There are already many reports of such activities being carried out by some more exchanges, it has now become a trend. The crypto community should stand firmly against these exchanges.

Yes, it sounds encouraging, but I do not forget that I sent them a considerable amount. And, apparently, there are no technical difficulties in creating more such sites for this money.

Of course, this upsets me a little, but I do not despair and hope to get my coins back.

Regarding your message - I absolutely agree with you. Any service, and even non-cryptocurrency, should follow its own rules, and not invent them on the fly, changing the reason over and over again.

The most important thing is honesty towards users. In fact, I did come across cases where people needed to go through KYC in other exchangers, but in those cases everything was clearly argued and there were real reasons for that, which corresponded to the current policy of the site and common sense.

In general, although I don’t believe that this will happen in the next couple of days, I hope that at least in the next week the situation will be resolved, since at the moment I have been in a state of slight despair and slight depression because of this for 10 days already.


UPDATE:
And... scam exchanger was disabled from monitoring: https://i.postimg.cc/76bSYC2t/scam-exchanger-disabled.png

[Denis_Verbinsky]

Yeah, it looks like I can forget about my coins and it was originally a well-thought-out scam on the part of the exchanger.

They have been disconnected from monitoring for two days now, but they still haven't contacted me or returned my coins.

As I thought, apparently it's easier for them to create a few more sites with the $11,000 they received and deceive even more people.

A disposable dump.

UPDATE:
And... scam exchanger was disabled from monitoring: https://i.postimg.cc/76bSYC2t/scam-exchanger-disabled.png

I think it's too late for bestchange monitor to cancel the partnership with go-go scam exchanger after deceiving users about it being a No KYC exchange even if the exchanger lies to them too. Bestchange bear a part of responsibility of your loss imo and should do its best to refund you because you were directed to that scam trip through their service which you trusted.

Because even if we admit you mistaken not checking the TOS before sending that amount exceeding the max limit, it turned out later that another version of the Tos (Russian) doesn't contain that condition.

UPDATE:
And... scam exchanger was disabled from monitoring: https://i.postimg.cc/76bSYC2t/scam-exchanger-disabled.png

Since you opened a case against them, they were already disconnected from Bestchange, only to be reactivated again. Now they are disabled on BC, but they are officially under "Technical work"
This attempted fraud seems to be completely ruining their business

Protect yourselves from which future?

If you are really after OP's KYC documents, then he also deserves to know the company he is handing over his document to. For a start, can you provide us with your Licence number (to prove that you are regulated)?

Can you also give as information about your company, location? I didn't see anything like that on your website, like other regulated platforms do.
