Well even if it does seem shady, who in their right mind would deposit 1BTC in a website they don't trust? ID verification is nothing wrong to ask and almost anyone would do so for 1BTC value. A safe(very safe) method to stay scam free is upload screenshots of deposits made to Imgur or other hosting websites for verifications.

First of all I deposited 1 btc to this site when they were around $300 each, now almost 1k a piece. even at 1k is not a lot of money to me. Its the principal of it. Seems youre one of these people who would have the stupid argument about not putting coins on exchanges either? without the exchanges, there would be no btc market.
Learn to read and comprehend please. nowhere in that email did they ask for a screenshot of my deposit. they are asking for a photo of my I.D. You say who in their right mind would send 1 btc to shady website but tell me to send my i.d. to said shady company. Whos out of their mind now?
I could easily sign a transaction with the btc address that I initially sent them the coin with to make deposit to prove I am the owner. But they arent asking for this either. Either they want to collect info for x government or they want to steal my coin or sell my identity. either way...fucking cunts

I guess some people never learn. I was simply suggesting to take a screenshot of Transactions which might prove beneficial in the future. For people like you who don't care about money, I have no words left for the likes of you.

So what else would you do to get back that sum?

I back you up there, and I hope no other person falls for their trap either.
