Thanks for confirming that the https://monatr.jp/ website allows you to log-in using Yahoo Open ID the first time allowing funds to be deposited, but refuses logging-in in all the subsequent attempts to log-in. This means that users cannot get access to their funds.

I notice on their Twitter account that difficulties in logging-in with Google have been reported in January 2017:

It is now May 2017, long enough for logging-in problems to be sorted out. This makes me very suspicious.

The https://monatr.jp/ website is owned by Hyuga Masahiko of Janom LLC, which is located in Tokyo, Japan and this is their website and twitter account:

I will wait a short while for the owners of the https://monatr.jp/ website to respond.

I've been able to login fine and trade with Yahoo Open ID with no issue for the past several months (or well, years). This issue appears to only be restricted to Google-connected accounts. If I recall correctly, Google integration was introduced very late so I assume there are considerably fewer users using Google authentication, but I guess I could be wrong (I'd be using it instead of Yahoo authentication if it had existed when I signed up). Hyuga (I think) has posted to the Monatr Twitter acknowledging the situation - noting that with the sudden influx of activity and lack of manpower (if I recall correctly he only has one other person working with him?) to support Monatr and other projects they haven't been able to resolve the issue yet. There has been no report of mishandling or loss of user funds at this point in time (in his most recent tweet on Monatr, he states that they are intact).

FYI most trading is being done at Zaif.

...

I can assure you, 'Mr Newbie', that the Yahoo ID doesn't work, at least for people in the West, after the initial sign-in (and deposit in my case). This has been confirmed by another here in a previous post. I doubt very much the veracity of your statement. You seem to know a lot about Hyuga Masahiko. I can tell you this: neither he , nor any other person from Monatr has responded to an email I sent well over a month ago.

I will wait till the end of this month. If I don't receive a reply to my email by then, I will inform the Japanese authorities, the media, and other agencies about possible fraud involving monatr and cryptocurrencies.
