Am going to try and answer as much as possible..

All INR funds are safe and we will setup a withdrawal form over the next few days.
Indemnification of all users Crypto funds are being discussed, but will be indemnified by company funds even if we fail to recover funds from  this incident.
We are following every procedure possible to make this seamless for our users and we will be posting more frequent updates as we get more information.

We still maintain our banking relationships and have never maintained a fractional system on coinsecure, so, all fiat funds were always safe and withdraw-able.

We will publish more information on this incident as soon as we are able to get more information from formal and informal investigative companies.

Coinsecure is not shutting down. We are going to work our way through this and defend this technology that we have lived and breathed for.

I will try as much to answer any questions, but will have delays as we are all sunk into this compromise.

Has anyone tried exporting CSV file of the timeline from Coinsecure? The CSV exports fine but the date/time column values are not exporting as intended (see screenshot below).
Instead of proper date/time, it displays a random number which is not even manually analyzable.



Is it just me or it's like that for everyone?

Thats an epoch timestamp.
Try this..

Re: coinsecure.in rejecting INR deposits

Hello Everyone in the space!
In the last two days, I have tried 3 times to make my first INR deposit at the coinsecure exchange in India but all the times the requests were rejected by the compliance officer.
I am not sure why this is happening (I tried the IMPS and NEFT options). The reason to decline the request is not really specified by them other than an absurd text which says duplicate request.
I also tried writing to these guys but they won't buzzzz Sad
Looking forward for your answers..

thanks Smiley

Can you PM me your email ID? I can check with compliance as to why they have rejected

Hi,

I made a deposit to my trading BTC address and have never encountered issues in the past. Its already 7 conformations on the blockchain network but nothing shows up in their site.

It does not show my transaction on the unconfirmed transactions as well. I did get an email from coinsecure stating that there is a deposit and it is not confirmed yet and will show up in my account after 3 conformations.

Not able to contact support Sad

Has anybody else encountered this issue and if yes how did you get it resolved?

Need the txid, listener misses deposits sometimes.

Re: I-T department conducting surveys at Bitcoin exchanges
by
Benson Samuel
on 22/12/2017, 01:19:06 UTC
In today's newspaper I read that Income Tax department is going to send notices to 4-5 lakh high level traders who have traded Bitcoins at popular exchanges.
http://www.businesstoday.in/current/economy-politics/bitcoin-income-tax-notices-4-lakh-hnis-tax-evasion-cryptocurrency-digital-money-tax-fraud/story/266264.html

This comes after IT officials conducted surveys at 9 popular Bitcoin exchanges in India last week.

Let us know if anyone here receives the notice  Tongue

So how many people have received tax notice from the IT dept and do we have anyone reporting here the details of it?



I happened to see one of the notices, sent to a trader. Not sure who, but I heard that this was on some traders group on whatsapp.
Noticed 28 or so questions on it, mainly regarding assets, crypto, public keys where other crypto is held, explanation of how purchased, etc.

Lots of requests on Coinsecure for audit reports and details of transactions from users themselves, so I do think this is quite widespread.

Dear All,

Even my 7 Lakhs are siphoned off by these guys. I made a withdrawal transaction of 5 Lakh on 9th December and they only transferred 2 Lakhs and for balance 3 Lakhs I have mailed them severally and also sent messages on whatsapp but no one is reverting. Then I spoke to one of their staff, he asked me for email id and phone number and in next 5 minutes my another 3.80 Lakh worth of bitcoins were transferred to some unknown account. I spoke to the Director Sykam Reddy too and he said customer care is working on it please give them some time.

Now they have shut down the website and app on pretext of Income Tax raids.

I am going to visit there office on Monday 18th Dec and I have also spoken to my contacts in Hyderabad who said if they dont pay your money and bitcoin back, go to local police station to lodge FIR against the company and he will get it registered through hi contacts in CID Andhra Pradesh.

If anyone of you want to join me in this fight, you are most welcome, please connect with me on my mobile/whatsapp number 09958882727.

Please note down the numbers of staff and Directors.

Sykam Reddy: 9500725088
Sykam Ramakrishna Reddy: 8333900066 whatsapp
Sykam Ramakrishna Reddy: 9566052750

Staff: Shridara H S/Anand yadav/ Rajesh Sharma - 8217461976 






Not sure about the other stuff, but seeing that name Sykam got me checking my mails as that name sounded familiar.
Few years back, he had mailed me stating that the Bitcoin India Facebook page, where I am the owner, belonged to him as he had applied for a copyright on the word Bitcoin India after I had started the page.

I replied that I had checked with my lawyer and was assured that he can take over the page with just around 200 users back then for about 150K USD..  Roll Eyes
He did not reply after that Cheesy

No reply from any trusted member on this forum.

As I told you in our PM chat, anyone can make up anything about anyone else on the internet.  It's not proof.

It could be a smear campaign from a competitor.   Very easy to buy those from (cough) China.

It's not.

I have attached the copy of google cached page.Not from any illicit source.
All the things that I have written are 100% fact Smiley  I request Bunsen to counter them.

I cannot understand..

BCH is also added as a prompt on the wallet interface, so, programmed to show, only if user had a valid balance.. There is most definitely gonna be a fee for BCH withdraws, since no API supported, we had to rewrite a full wallet, etc. Can only be released after the auto deposits is complete as that breaks the complete live workflow at the moment.

I dont see BCH anywhere on the site. I can only see BTC Wallet. I definitely have a valid balance since I havn't moved mine in a year. Am I doing anything wrong?

Not yet on live server.. this is on our testnet at the moment.
