I agree with you.
The problem is HitBTC doing targeting scam, so a lot of people have been no scammed.
But recently, as you can see on my previous post, I found a lot of people in the same case than me.
We must act.
I don't know the reason behind there scam : Have they been hacked ? Have they doing an exit scam ?
Anyway, Something bad is going on.
I just contact a lawyer in Hong Kong, recommended by my French Government , to start the sue in court if they don't give me my money.
I hope you start proceedings against the scammers because if you are the first it will be a test case and others can follow. Maybe taking class action in a group with other victims would be better as it has safety in numbers and lowers the cost.
Maybe you are right, they might have been hacked or might be looking for an exit strategy - those might be some of the reasons they are selective scamming.
