Topic: [ANNOUNCE] Bitcoin Fog: Secure Bitcoin Anonymization - page 8. (Read 301356 times)

Hi, i am aware i am a 'new user' but i have been waiting for a balance of near $1600US since 2015-10-27...
Any help would be appreciated, Akemashite Omedetou could you please private message me so we can discuss what is going on?
I received this message from support; FOG:

There is a technical outage right now, the deposit will be registered. We are working on it.

After that, no reply.

Seeing how this is a new account yet again, this seems too much like an anonymous bashing campaign again, but if you are a legitimate user, what is your username on the service? We haven't received any complaints for that exact amount lately, and we have been answering to messages regarding the outages which happened during these latest delays.


Surely you must be joking. Or you do not do any serious mixing and maybe just experimenting with it for fun?
Blockchain.info is a public company with easily identifiable members and staff. If any authority will ever want to find information about your money, they will simply go to the staff members who will have no choice but to reveal information about you, and will have no right to reveal to you that they have been contacted by the authority, due to a gag order.

Hello,
What does it mean "Please come back in a short while."
I'm refreshing page for like 36h straight. No sleep for me. It don't looks for me such a short time. I need my funds ASAP.
You are sleeping doing nothing while i'm waiting for Your stated "short time"
Is it soonish like Mark from Mt. gox?
Your service is great but communication is really, really, mega, great, really, no I say really, reallllly BAD!  Angry
Have a good sleep. Not me.  

Indianacoin has it right, why not use a service that has good reviews? 

Also, why would anyone want to mix 104 BTC at once without knowing that the service is good?  Why not try BTC5 - BTC10 first?  Then maybe mix BTC10 - BTC20 per day or week?

SharedCoin and bitmixer both work well.  Use one or both of them!

Yet I see that most people having problems are NEWBIES to bitcointalk.  That alone makes me wonder as well.........

Why have you used this shitty mixing service when you have several better options to chose?

The two biggest ones are Blockchain.info's shared send and bitmixer.io

Shared send requires a wallet on BC.info to use. It uses a mixing technique called Coin Join which lets you mix coins without having to give control of them to BC.info (in theory at least, BC.info can always modify the JS). When it first came out it did a very poor job at mixing. It has since been improved, though I don't think it's been thoroughly analyzed for potential weaknesses yet.

Bitmixer.io is a mixing service run by an anonymous person. You don't need to create an account or anything and it seems to do a pretty good job at mixing. You do have to give control of the coins to an anonymous person though, and they could steal them if they wanted to.

Another pro-tip is to use a crypto to crypto exchange, btc to ltc on 1 exchange then ltc to btc on another. Nobody will ever be able to trace you. Pure Black Hole.

I sent 104 bitcoins 3 days ago and still 0 on my balance and support not answer. Please help me!!
Before i used this website for same amounts and no problem!:(


UPD: Omg now i found this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-fog-1196490

Damn, my life is really fuckin end
i am fucked up 

We have finally been able to resolve all the technical issues. We know there have been a lot of delays and we are sorry for the inconvenience. Ultimately this comes as a cost for running our service at the level of anonymity that we have.
As of now both deposits, withdrawals and the mixing process are all working as expected.

As an apology we have now removed all fees of our service, no matter the mixing amount, for the next 2 weeks.


We have never selectively scammed anyone.
At a certain point it was obvious that someone (likely the the competition) was runing a badmouthing campaign against us which could be easily seen as the messages were posted during a specific period of time from mostly new accounts, and following the same language patterns even in some cases. Some of the competition are obviously spending a lot of money on their own advertising (which is likely why you might think they are more "reputable"), and badmouthing the oldest running mixed is easily a good way to do that too.

We have always put most of our resources into making the service itself as stable and more importantly as secure as possible (which is evident by the lack of hacks for such long time period), and not into advertising. For this we are recognized by our users who judge by facts and experience and not by paid advertisements or fake messages from new internet accounts.

We have had our share of problems with delays and downtimes (like most services though), but we have not scammed anyone. There would not be any point to stay operational for years just to make some small money on scamming individual clients.



In either way are sincerely sorry for such long downtime and hope the free mixing period can return some of your losses.

I'm still not sure why people still use this selective scamming site when you could just use bitmixer.io or something else more reputable. I think there are quite a few people who have lost coins there, but I may be mistaken. 

I'm having problem too with the fog, coins sent but didn't arrived, the transaction is confirmed but no coins?
Any help or info will help :\

So my bitcoins finnally arrived at my wallet! Seems that everything works now!

Can someone post the onion link that works for them? The one in the post doesnt work

Yeah, that same guy used it pretty religiously. Had one other time it took over a day but never like this.

I will post when everything is safe and sound. I don't want to set a bad tone for the website if they are honest people working with an honest mistake.

...

Now I'm curious...:

Has anyone EVER had a good experience with BitcoinFog?

I see relentlessly negative comments re Fog, it makes me really wonder why they don't use bitmixer.io instead...

Most such comments seem to come from newbies though.

 

Yeah a guy I met is having the same problem. I wouldn't use the service until this is fixed. If you check the blockchain they haven't disappeared. They just aren't moving.

It's been well over 24 hours.

I recommend no one uses until they fix their issues and make a large announcement.

Yes the same here! My bitcoins just disappeared! I am not amused!

After the site is back,
I cashed out my xxx... but hes not on target yet,even the fog says withdraw was done.

Fogg says

 News:

We have managed to bring the website online. It will still take a little more time (about a day) to bring up the payments. Really sorry for this inconvenience, the errors were large and we had a difficult time manually restoring from backups to the exact state at which the crash happened.

Does that means money will arrives in 1 Day?

Anyone else same issues?

I still havent received coins fro4 or 5 months ago..
Now their onion link doesnt even work

Hello there,

Has anyone experienced the following issue... after bitcoinfog changed to it's new address I cannot login with my credentials anymore. I had a decent amount of BTC in that account and no one from their support seems to respond.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for your time,
Jason

One week ago I used bitcoinfog! I still have not my bitcoins back! It sucks!

How long? Its been a few months...
