Re: Do I need to create Proof-of-Activity for recovering lost coins from Blockchain
Also, this topic shouldn't be in this section of the forum
He's already got a topic in the section Scam Accusations.
Thanks for moving the post
Re: Do I need to create Proof-of-Activity for recovering lost coins from Blockchain
I would agree with Loyce, you are getting scammed again. I don't get it. If you understand nothing about BTC, why use it to send and receive payments? It would have taken you less than an hour to educate yourself about the things that matter to get you going, but no, you jumped straight in and lost money.
Also, this topic shouldn't be in this section of the forum; you are dealing with a scam attempt -- nothing technical about your case.

It is not about understanding BTC, its about understanding BTC scams and in regards to the education, aint it what that forum about? education.
In regards to the wrong forum, - apologies, though my question was in regards to Proof-of-Activity and not scam accusations, while posting i did not know that i am being scammed yet, or else i would continue my last post in the related forum.
Re: Do I need to create Proof-of-Activity for recovering lost coins from Blockchain
she got in touch with blockchain
Does she also talk to plants? You are getting scammed by this "laywer"!Quote
I need to create Proof of Activity by sending out coins to my account at blockchain number from the wallet that the coins were sent out to the scammers.
It's an old trick: after scamming someone, they come back to ask for more.Quote
Would i be able to get the coins back to my wallet addy after that so called created activity?
No. That's not how Bitcoin works.Quote
Why do one needs to create Proof-of-Activity by sending coins and is it absolutely required?
You are getting scammed.Quote
so pretty please, any advice or assistance would be appreciated.
Go to the police. Don't pay anyone anything.Thank you a million
Do I need to create Proof-of-Activity for recovering lost coins from Blockchain
Hello all,
I have lost some 0.BTC to a scam exchange though while talking to a lawyer, she got in touch with blockchain, they have found the transactions and told her they have a suspicions that the scammers use it for ML.
According to the lawyer, they said that there is a way to recover the coins back to my wallet but since it sums in a quite big money of today value, the transaction will get blocked, and while they have checked the wallet so called account at blockchain, they see that I practically don't have activity, so again according to the lawyer, I need to create Proof of Activity by sending out coins to my account at blockchain number from the wallet that the coins were sent out to the scammers.
Make sense???
Well, not to me.
Does everyone has an account at blockchain? And if so how can I access it if I am going to send coins there?
Would i be able to get the coins back to my wallet addy after that so called created activity?
Why do one needs to create Proof-of-Activity by sending coins and is it absolutely required?
It all seems very weird to me and I don't understand the Proof of Activity concept when related to a normal person that has some coins.
so pretty please, any advice or assistance would be appreciated.

Re: SCAM Alert- GENER.com Scam Exchange Stealing Charity Money, Invented terms
Thanks for your question though i did not find that website, i have advertised an ecommerce for sale in order to collect the money for charity, the customer approached me and after we negotiate the price, customer told me that all his funds are in that site and sent me screenshots to confirm that.
I was asked to register an account at GENERCRYPTO.com and customers sent the funds, once i tried to withdraw the funds, on every withdraw attempt a poupup pops up with firstly, deposit 0.005 btc in order to confirm external wallet (at Poloniex.com), then a second time ive tried to withdraw there is a popup of 0.01btc, membership activation. third time was another 0.015 for insurance, since they detected my ip came from Israel and they have decided that Israel is a risk country while insisting that israelis in a list of risk countries which is not true, and here i am stuck with about 4.8K worth of BTC in their wallet.

Fair enough. Your customer is a scammer himself, and he is the owner of that website. No one can withdraw a penny from this website. Basically, he traps people by saying all his funds are in this website and then transfers the balance to their account. Once the victim tries to withdraw the funds from this website, the website requires them to make a deposit, and people get scammed.
This is a known scam method. It is sad that you didn't know about it. I am sorry for your lose mate. I would suggest you try to recover the website that you supposed to sell. I don't know if you already transferred the ownership. If you did, check if you can recover your website. Never make a deposit on any website to be eligible to withdraw your funds.
There is no way by reading the exchange terms to know about the added requirements they invent on the way, even searching online did not reveal any issue, practically a clean slate so no way to know about that scam until you get scammed.
That said, I have managed to recover that ecomm site and cancelled the transaction.
Thanks,
Re: SCAM Alert- GENER.com Scam Exchange Stealing Charity Money, Invented terms
Actually the website customer did send the funds for the website though the game started when i tried to withdraw the funds.
I am more curious how you found this website. Would you mind sharing how you found this website? How do you know that your customer does not own this scam exchange? I am fairly certain that your so-called customer owns the website where he sent the funds and asked you to withdraw them. Once you have tried to withdraw your funds, the game has started.
Whatever has happened, please tell us how you found the website so we can understand the case better.

Re: SCAM Alert- CRYPTOGENER.com Scam Exchange Stealing Charity Money, Invented terms
I have sold a website for charity purposes and the customer deposited in their website, since all the mess i have cancelled the website transaction though i have deposited more in order to get the charity money
That so-called customer (your website buyer) is a scammer himself and the owner of the exchange website you mentioned. So, first of all, they bought a website from you, which is a scam because you didn't received your money. 2nd, they scammed your own money which you had deposited to their platform in order to get your money. So, he basically scammed you twice.
Never accept login credentials as a payment. I assume he asked you to create an account in this exchange and he said he sent funds to your account, right? Actually he did not sent any funds or did not deposited anything. He just added a balance from the admin panel and you got scammed. Stay away from these scammers.

Re: SCAM Alert- CRYPTOGENER.com Scam Exchange Stealing Charity Money, Invented terms
Would you mind telling me how you found this website? I assume someone sent you a private message with the credentials to this website, and the account already has some Bitcoin in it, right? Once you tried to withdraw that amount, the website asked you to make a deposit and you started falling for this scam. Please confirm if I am right. This is one of the oldest scam method.
It happens mostly on social media like X, facebook and telegram. Some random people send you the login credentials with Bitcoins and they convince the victim to make another deposit. You won't be able to get your funds mate. It's just a scam website.

More, I have uploaded to the site my both ID's - Israeli and French though they keep on asking 0.015 for insurance.

Re: YoBit.Net - CRYPTOCURRENCY EXCHANGE & MultiCoin DICE - Free Coins every 1-24 hrs
hello, waiting for my DGB deposit since 2 months now. double-checked - deposit address is correct. TX is on chain and has tons of confirmations but it does not arrive at yobit. Support ticket opened also 2 months ago - unfortunetly no help from support so far. anyone an idea? is yobit admin reading forum here? can you help?
greetings
greetings
it appears that Yobit's admin doesn't bother to read any forum posts or any of the negative reviews posted online, neither replies to tweets about users issues.
DGB, XBY and many other coins same deposit and withdrawal issues.
I keep on getting my accounts blocked every 2-3 days for 2 months and no support, and we probably are only a few out of hundreds members that have issues with Yobit.
Re: YoBit.Net - CRYPTOCURRENCY EXCHANGE & MultiCoin DICE - Free Coins every 1-24 hrs
Yobit keeps on blocking accounts ON PURPOSE AS A LONG TERM STRATEGY for months, voluntarily blocking any new IP access codes and disabling 2FA verifications on their end and the list goes on.. not allowing users to trade nor to withdraw many coins - wallets maintenance approx time according to Dominik Herzog "takes 1-365 days" - nice and helpful way to answer members questions from the mod, (assumption -> especially when you trade specific coins they are probably interested in), support never answer and since there is no way to get in touch, users can't login to the site to trade nor to recover funds for months.
