So, I am new to Bitcoins(relatively, been almost 2 months).  I managed to get up to about $70 dollars worth of coin at the current market value.  The current signature I am using I signed up for to make some coins for posting, I thought it was great.  Well this is where I made my mistake.    I decided to deposit $50 dollars to try and earn a little more coin.  I then saw a post by Grappa_Barricata indicating this was a ponzi, I would like to thank him for bringing this term to my attention.  I started researching what a Ponzi is, and I immediately tried to withdraw my money.  I was a little too late I guess.  I just wanted to thank Grappa for posting about that and informing everyone.

I know ponzi is not a bitcoin term but I was still unfamiliar with the scam they ran.  Anyway, just wanted to post this and let everyone know that Cryptcominer is indeed a scam, and hopefully you do not invest. Big thanks to grappa for bringing this to my attention.

Wow. totally unexpected... You lost your money in an HYIP/ponzi/scam ?

It is simple
How do u expect someone to give you 3% a day?
From other investor's money.
and when admin makes a good profit, withdrawals are not granted and the site disappears in a few days.
Don't invest in HYIPs. it is worse than gambling.

Any program offering this much interest, is obviously false. If you invested 1 btc in a year, you would have 12 btc, they simply can't sustain that.

Some people had more than a thousand dollars on this, I really hope and pray that they got out before this crashed.

Learn from the mistake. The knowledge is worth more than 1000$. So you made a net profit.  Cheesy

Yes, Thank you for the nice response, as I stated in my post I was not aware of what a Ponzi was.  I was just writing it to warn other people and thank the people that warned me albeit I didn't know till it was too late.

Why would a random new account give you free money? Sorry, but you fully deserved to lose it.

By the way, if you send me 1 BTC I send 2 back because I'm a nice guy.

I really didn't think I would receive such backlash for posting this, I am really sorry I guess.  I am new and learning about everything as much as I can

Not a lot of people understand that. Cryptos is still the heaven for scammers. What is really sad is that the number of members falling for those scheme doesn't seem to fall  Undecided

Well, writing was on the wall from day one, and it was obvious it was a scam, and people warned of it being so on nearly every page of their thread.

yes they even sent an email there is a new plan 1-day gain of 130% if you invest $ 1,000 and $ 1,300 you can in one day, and I suspect they gather investors plainly
