There is a scam accusation against freebitco.in which you can check here
FreeBitcoin Scam?.
Learn Bitcoin, the topic you referred to has been created by NikeFit7777 himself.
I updated OP with some information about the recent issues with deposits.
Unfortunately, not only they didn't solve the existing issues, but also now there are new issues with freebitco.
Update (November 18, 2024):According to some reports posted by some people in
FreeBitco.in thread, it seems that now there are some issues with deposits too. There are also same reports on their
x.com account and they are still irresponsive.
