I blame greedy and naive people. Instead of learning basics, at least, all they see is fast money and profit without hard work. In the end, they get scammed and rant about it.
Read and learn... READ AND LEARN!

Re: changenow.io are SCAMMERS, be careful, do NOT send them money
You would do much better here if you at least had the official changenow account give you positive trust & notes to reflect you are indeed a "rep", otherwise there is always a question as to who you really are/how you know all this etc... Not that I doubt you, I have heard good things about your service but never used it personally..
Sure, but that doesn't change the fact his exchange was completed. Proofs are above. You can't get these details, I can, so that tells you I'm connected with ChangeNOW.

Re: changenow.io are SCAMMERS, be careful, do NOT send them money
I'm sorry for any confusion; you said that a customer can reject KYC and in most cases he'll get a refund. What would cause a customer to not get a refund if he rejected KYC? What happens to the funds in that case?
Yes, customers can reject KYC, and, by current Terms of Use and everything is there, customers will get a refund. IF AML check turns out bad, customers will be "forced" to go through KYC/AML procedure, so that is the "most" part. If the customer fails to pass AML then crypto stays in limbo, no one will have access to it. There's also a section in Terms of Use that ChangeNOW can donate crypto to charity, but that's for countries that are prohibited by applicable law, not for illicit crypto.

1. Are you a representative of ChangeNOW? 2. How were you able to link that transaction to the OP? 3. Why isn't ChangeNOW using their official account to make these posts?
Every exchange will be processed accordingly, BUT, if the transaction is flagged (as you mentioned, coins are tainter or linked to illicit activity) by an AML check (one of the checks is done by https://amlbot.com/, the customer will need to go through KYC and AML procedures.
In most cases, customers can reject to do KYC and still get a refund.
In most cases the customer gets a refund? What happens otherwise?
1. I work as customer support for their telegram group, Reddit and Trust Pilot, so you can say that I'm representative, yes. 2. I believe OP has contacted support and shared his ID with them. That's how I got it (from our support team). 3. Not sure, really. Need to check that.
What happens otherwise? KYC/AML procedure.

once you send the coin to the address, they can decide to exchange the coin for you or seize your coin and demand for KYC if the coin is tainted or linked to illegal transaction
Not really. Every exchange will be processed accordingly, BUT, if the transaction is flagged by an AML check (one of the checks is done by https://amlbot.com/, the customer will need to go through KYC and AML procedures.

So I guess, OP should make an edit and say that he got BTC under 2 hours after he made a deposit. That would be fair. Or not. Either way, this was not a scam in any possible way.
A bit of clarification. We, as in ChangeNOW, had some issues with BTC deposit, and that took a while but it was fixed. We informed our customers via Telegram group https://t.me/changeNOW_chat as we do for every single change.
Your deposit of 0.2906 XMR was made 30.05.2022, 17:48:54 and your exchange was completed 30.05.2022, 19:34:51. That's less than 2 hours, and the delay was caused by BTC deposit issues.
Let me know if you have more questions, I would be happy to help and answer.
During the college days, i drink only one time. After that I never drink because this is harmful for health and this causes lung cancer also. So, I suggest not to drink alcohol and keep your body healthy.
