Some people on the Blenderio telegram claimed they have received the refund:
Some
Newbies on Bitcointalk
claimed the same. The accounts were only created to post this, which is what many scammers do to promote their scam.
Not to mention they are being reliable for people's money
Not according to their
Terms.
So I think the questionable announcements are reasonable.
Let's agree to disagree on this.
But maybe the team just wants a quick way to assure user funds safe.
Intead of rushing to refund people and promising to pay 100 BTC out of pocket, it would make much more sense to get to the bottom of this first. How do they even know 100 BTC was stolen?
But there is a more serious problem, imo: they claim they don't save their customers personal information (no kyc) and since the hacker manged to move the victims funds then he certainly has their wallets seeds too. Now, if someone contacts them asking for a refund how are they going to know if he is the real owner and not the hacker!
You make a very good point. None of this makes any sense!
