Hitbtc is controlled by the US fbi just like localbitcoins.com is .I have proof about localbitcoins.com being controlled by the fbi from them threatening me for moving so much money there to them even sending fotos of their fbi badge. Hitbtc is another part of their elitist scam just like localbitcoin.com where their agents have bulletproof account you can not leave bad feedback for the us government agents on localbitcoins.com it is a conspiracy. Also hitbtc is controlled by the illuminatti and the fbi, they can rob and have been robbing for 4 years from people and nothing happens because they are with the elite at the high level.In a real system, governments would close companies like these but because it is a big lie they let is keep going. Dont worry about alqaeda and isis worry about their owners, the Us govt.

Hello,

I think you have been reading too much Above top-secret, Godlike productions, etc all these things you talk about eg. The Illuminati this, the Illuminati that, the freemasons..... are things that I used to read on the conspiracy sites never took them seriously and was more as a hobby to kill time reading interesting things people tends to invent out of the top of their overactive imagination, but let me tell you this, I never found a single concrete proof that backs any of these conspiracies posts I read about. About the Illuminati, I think the only thing I was able to find about was that they were an old religious fraternity or something like that from around the year 1500's but I don't think they are relevant or exist today and about the Freemasons? Well I know they exists because when I was walking by I think 20th to 23rd Street I stumbled upon a building that read "Free and Proud Freemasons of New York" well something like that, so they clearly exists as an organization, further research by me reveals that their mission is to make the world a better place than how they (the members) found it, well that doesn't seem to "evil" to me, that's a perfectly good goal on my watch. So, I suggest you try to verify the claims of each conspiracy stories you read, because not everything you see on the internet is real.

Aside from that, I am interested to know if you were able to get your issue resolved? Was planning on engaging on some arbitrage opportunities between HitBTC and some other exchanges but after reading your OP I guess that would be a no, but I am still on the fence whether they are truly a scammers, or if the email issue is the only issue at play here.

Pro tip: always make sure your email address is up to date on all of your exchange. Here's what you DHOULD have done first:. Checkk what email address is on your HitBTC file, can't access it? No worries attempt to change it, can't? Contact support and see if they can change it for you, not possible? Assuming the account had zero balance, dump the account, erase all HitBTC cookies from your browser to prevent session based recognition and then create a branch new HitBTC account, you could even take it a bit further and force an IP address change from you ISP's modem (by changingWAN MAC address of router and then power cycling cable modem, release and renew IP of FIOS Router, etc) before creating your new HitBTC account with your active valid email address. And then you PROBAVLY wouldn't have a problem trying to do the exchange you tried to do.

Personally what would I have done in your shoes? I would have applied my trust to a most trusting exchange, like for example Bittrex. Bittrex is as official as official can get, they own a BitLicense that got approved and accepted, are able to service New Yorkers (like myself) not all exchanges have such luxuries, not even Kraken or even the supposedly #1 exchange by volume, Poloniex. Yes Bittrex requires ID verification which could be a bit inconvenient and is a fair trade off if you want to have SOME peace of mind that your cryptos just won't disappeared from your trading account or they would just run away with all user's fund. That bitlicense forces Bittrex to hold itself at a high standard, they have to follow regulations and follow security best practice for the industry they engage in. For the amount of crypto you were engaging in maybe you should have lended your trust to Bittrex.

Disclaimer:. I can only talk about Bittrex because that's what I use and what I am willing to lend my trust when dealing with a large amount of cryptos, but there are other exchanges too following regulation and even with a BitLicense such as Gemini, Coinbase, etc that you can explore to your consideration.
