I signed up for a Crycurex account yesterday in the hope of trading my COYE for COXE to trade to BTC. My ultimate goal was to move the BTC to Coinmarket.io to trade for KDC. I deposited 62326.07773219 COYE, which has a 1:1 trade for COXE to get around the cease and desist order.
You can see the confirmed deposit here:

I assume this was meant to mean "No funds to sell" meaning the amount I entered was insufficient. However, if you review this image:

Here is a list of my transactions:

COXE 119.07773219 Remaining Balance
But no, my remaining balance on the site says COXE 0.88443219. I am missing 118.1933 COXE from my account. After thinking about it, it makes sense why my initial order for the full balance wouldn't post. Because the exchange thinks they own part of your balance!
118.1933*100/62326.07773219 ~ 0.19. Not only is Crycurex taking 0.19% in exchange fees, they are also taking 0.19% of your remaining account balance!
I attempted to withdraw my BTC as soon as I found out what was happening, but it was never confirmed. I sent the following PM to the crycurex.com account on this forum:
