What a scam... The only difference between TORwallet and MyBitcoin is that
this site is running behind a Tor hidden service.

Well, yes, it could be a scam.
Or it could be totally legit and honest.
We have no way of knowing.
MyBitcoin appeared to run completely legitimately for YEARS... before
stealing everyone's money one day.
Just like EVERY other online exchange or wallet. We have no way of
knowing what the operator(s) will do.
There's no difference between it and.... MtGox, InstaWallet, or any
of the other exchange/wallet services.
In every case, you are totally trusting your money to a complete stranger.
Let's face it, does anyone personally know the people behind any of them...?
And even if you do, does that mean they won't disappear with your money...?
Effectively, they may as well be anonymous behind an anonymous tor site....
I hope users keep this in mind NO MATTER WHICH online exchange or
online wallet they use.
Store Only very small amounts of money, for very brief periods of time.
