unfortunately i did not do my research ... i have been mining for over a year now and have been using many services in the past to liquidate what i mine, but due to some change in policies in some of the sites i use, i had to look for new alternatives to collect my earnings. to my bad luck, and my stupidity, i came across
www.bitcoinscashout.com and for some reason i thought I'd try it out with some 0.01BTC (about 90+ USD) to see if it works. I made the transfer to their address

with trx #

and they received it

i keep looking at the block explorer to track the movement of the coins, and it saddens me to see that they keep receiving funds on that address, though no withdrawals have yet been made out that address so far.
i'm writing this for a few reasons:
1. to maybe help out anyone who is thinking of using them and falling for their scam
2. i might be wrong and someone from bitcoincashout will actually respond to this (i tried to reach them in several ways but no response so far)
3. i think the community can help out, especially in this case if anyone residing in the UK and can help physically look into their scam
best of luck and always research any new service you think of using!!!!
