Sorry to say that I don't feel bad for anyone who got scammed after page 3 in this thread.
I tried to warn everyone that this was most likely scam but people continued to send the OP btc.
People aren't going to check this thread until they already suspect they've been scammed. ConfirmTX seemed legit for a while, only until the last few weeks. Unfortunately their service did work for a while and many claimed it was legit. I've used it before and had my first confirmation in <20 minutes and paying less than the recommended tx fee.
Apparently there are more free tx accelerators like viabtc, but they're not winning on SEO.
ConfirmTX has very good SEO right now along with reddit and other forum posts recommending them, etc.
I've posted
here as well for visibility.
Last time this happened the admin did refund people, but only after they complained. Yes they have good SEO but that doesn't mean that they are the best choice for accelerators, and anyone naive enough to pay a fee for their service deserve to get scammed.
They probably just manually submitted transactions into a free transaction accelerator and charged people money for it.
That is the most likely thing that happened. But just hoping that admin comes back and repays everyone.
