According to kycnot.me, this service is pushing lots of fake reviews to boost reputation and trick users:

Concerns exist about the service being new, run by an individual, and potential review manipulation. Some suspect authenticity of reviews and warn of scam risks due to lack of formal recourse. One user reported delayed funds and unresponsive support.

WARNING: The admin of this service has been spreading false info about openmonero.com, an open-source, no-KYC p2p exchange with well-known vendors that’s been running smoothly and reliably for over 12 months. Meanwhile, this new service has only been around for 2-3 months, and the person behind it is just trying to push his cheap, shady offering.

A big red flag: this project isn’t open source, doesn’t even have a website, and all trades happen on simpleX (a honeypot messaging app still in beta with centralized servers that could log all your trading activity)

For your safety and OPSEC, it’s best to steer clear of such sketchy services. Stick with reputable, open-source options that offer real transparency, community support, and verified vendors. Stay safe!

Hello, good day @OpenMonero,

Before I start, I was curious about who’s been spreading fake comments about our service on kycnot.me. Now it seems like it might be you

Funny. But anyway, let’s move on.

You’re saying I am spreading false info about your shady service; you sure? it’s everywhere. Did you even take five minutes to do some research?

Here i give you, https://libreddit.privacydev.net/r/Monero/comments/1i3pmyh/openmoneroco/

Many users have concerns about OpenMonero, with multiple reports accusing it of being a scam.

I have many customers, and we’ve been working smoothly for over three months without any issues or scams. So your baseless claims have zero credibility.

Instead of posting fake comments about us on kycnot.me or here, why don’t you explain where the $20,000 that was stolen went?

There’s a thread on BitcoinTalk created on June 7, 2025 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5546081.msg65460218#msg65460218)

and you only showed up yesterday making these claims. Where were you before that?

The site is still up with no mention of the hack. What are you trying to hide?

All funds were stolen. Where are the refunds? Saying it will take up to a year is just laughable.

I’m done writing because I have no interest in discussing your shady site any further, everyone already knows it.

Also, check out the comments from other users on Reddit... they say it all. I’m sorry for anyone who used your service and lost money.

And laughing so hard that

you calling simpleX a honeypot messaging app
