I have been looted by this scam and there many others. There are couple of things please check this discussion (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1716466.140) which I have posted already and explained how they fooled people by forcefully issuing Aureus coin to them @ $280, $380 and $480 per coin and now today's price is at c-cex $3.66(
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aureus/#markets):
I had invested 2 BTC coins in Aug 2016 (at rate of $800) and the moment I thought to withdraw my coins they locked our BTC coin and forcefully ask to buy Aureus at very high price. Later they closed Bitkingdom.org and open a new website for Aureus (
http://aureuscentral.com/) to ditch again.
I have got 22 Aureus against my 2 BTC coins and the 22 Aureus I got at rate of their random price system $280, $380 and $480 which was based on their bullshit lottery system. Most of the affected people are from this scam is from Malaysia, Indonesia and India.
My investement on Aug 2016:
2BTC x $800 = $1600
Today value of Aureus:
22Aureus x $3.66 = $80.52
You can now calculate how they ditched us
It's a pure
SCAM please stay away from this. There is no purpose of this coin instead looting people money only.
@aureusofficial if you have any clarification then please let me know I am ready for the discussion. If you really so called transparent then return my invested capital.
Dear FooledByAureus,
All your grievances seem to be related to BitKingdom (BK). We can assure you that we are a different management from that failed community lending program.
Aureus is now operating under a team that stepped in to salvage what was left and help all the victims by providing the most viable and practical solution. After BitKingdom, all the major holders of Aureus appointed us from Cryptocrest to manage the remaining funds amounting to 15,000 BTC that is currently in the Aureus Bitcoin Trust (ABT). Our job now is to promote Aureus and build up its reputation.
When the decision was made not to liquidate the ABT, a sustainable plan was set forth which came in the form of providing BTC dividends to Aureus holders on a monthly basis. The unsustainable structure of BK has been eradicated and we make no grand promises of investment returns.
Furthermore, we provide all our members with the chance to vote and liquidate the ABT fund. Therefore, if you are unhappy and want to liquidate, you can always place your vote and hope that others also feel the same way.
We would like to remind you that you are not the only victim who was left unhappy with the events that occurred with BK. There are tens of thousands of individuals just like you and therefore, we decided to keep the Aureus community a democracy whereby everyone gets a chance to have a vote.
In regards to the random price and lottery system you mentioned, we have nothing to do with it. We do not even implement the same system in our current Aureus community.
All we know is that we've been given a mandate by the community leaders and we have been operating in a manner that is transparent.
