so, they keep sending me KYC links, i keep refusing. For me - sending anything to those scammers - its enabling them to steal more. If they dont have any cooperation from me, no talks and no documents, what possible kind of investigation can they perform?) By doing this i will proof to everyone that investigations are bullshit

going to start doxxing current heads of evercode labs soon, ready to pay extra to give them a lesson

bestchange is exchangers aggregator, with reviews and possibility to open claims against exchangers listed there. I opened claim against changeNOW https://www.bestchange.com/changenow-exchanger.html?review=3109066 and admin seems to care too much about their reputation

Another interesting detail: i opened financial claim on bestchange, and admin changed claimto non-financial, like those people dont own me anything) I think Bestchange same people too, but they seems to be present here without problems?

Not much have changed since then:

Unfortunately, dont have rights to see topic, but i will appreciate any information leading to doxing them with actual info, that would definitely help, for good info will offer a reward

Yeah, i know, my problem was that i was using atomic wallet, and they didnt say what are they using for exchange(
I think owners of atomic wallet should think who they partner with too, if they not scammers like ChangeNow.io

What happened::
Yesterday i was making exchange 9 eth to btc via atomic wallet, Transaction was completed but orders status says waiting for deposit
after i contacted support, i was given answer that i need to pass KYC in order to complete exchange
I dont feel comfortable in sending my PII to anyone, thats not how crypto suppose to works. So, based on TOS

"In case a client doesn’t wish to disclose their identity for certain reasons and refuses to provide the documents, the KYC/AML procedure is considered failed and the deposited funds are then refunded to the address (or addresses) the deposit was made from, subtracting the network fees, within 24 hours. Then, ChangeNOW reserves the right to blacklist this address (or addresses), thus rendering it (or them) non-eligible for making deposits on the service."

i refused, than support informed me: "(14:37:53) Kate: I'm afraid a refund is not possible at the moment. Our compliance team will need to check this case, a KYC would help with that."

Later, support even told me that, quote "Unfortunately, it is not possible to take further action on this case without your cooperation in completing the KYC procedure."
So, it consider it a plain refusal

Hello,
 
Unfortunately, it is not possible to take further action on this case without your cooperation in completing the KYC procedure.

Additional Notes:
They are asking for PII which i dint want to share. I dont trust those guys with my PII. I need my refund, i will not provide and participate in KYC.
Now, they will talk about "investigation with no ETA" but on their helpdesk support clearle refused to provide any refund without KYC. So, i refuse to Provide it, and now it seems like it their money now) I know that this is not fors complaint about them, but i simply didnt read atomic wallet tos to know what exactly they using for swaps, never though they will rob be like that
