Bitcetus

According to whois, it's just a new exchange with no reputation.

Maybe the scammer also created dozens of duplicate sites, so far I found several sites with the same template/content:

Code:

www.bitbco.com
www.bitnetdexs.com
www.youigs.icu
www.future-focuss.com

Curious about how you first fell into this scammer's trap? Actually you can share your txid deposit if you don't mind, maybe some of us can trace where your money was taken. Just hope it ends in a centralized service.

That's a fake one and the bitcetus network you mention in your previous post I tried to search the exact website but I couldn't find it. However, I found a youtube video on Google below telling that it's a bitcetus.com with a scam alert. Meaning the USDT you receive is fake be careful if they are asking for payment to activate it. Send or withdraw USDT from your wallet only needs enough ETH to cover the transaction fees but if it's a fake one then it's not worth it because the fake USDT doesn't have value.

You have received tokens with the contract address of 0x120666249167a85b65b0D87F9f2B310C4E4a3205. According to etherscan, there are 90 addresses holding this fake token and the first transaction with that contract address was made only 69 days ago.
The correct contract address of USDT on ethereum network is 0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7.

Well, it looks like it's a fake one. The real USDT should have its icon on Etherscan but just to confirm, on the last row on the screenshot, click on "Tether USD" to see more details about the asset (including the contract address).

Where do I find the contract address? In etherscan?

I'm not sure if you could do that within the Coinbase app, but yes it should be possible to do that with etherscan.

Start by looking for your address, then find the transaction where you received this token. If you're unsure how either post your address or the TXID so we can help you.

Can you click on the token address and showed to us and there will be a contract address that must contain this contract address 0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7 if not similiar then it probably you have fake token.

and if you send from an exchange you dont actually need ETH to transfer because CeX will taking care of it

I think you have received fake tokens that have no value. Scammers can easily create fake ERC20 tokens with fake contract addresses. They create the tokens with the same name and symbol as the real tokens to deceive users.

OMG I think you are right

Bitcetus say in 30.5 ETH is needed to activate which is like $46000?

That's a scam. Don't make any deposit or you will lose your fund.

In OP, you said that you sent your fund to coinbase wallet. Didn't you?

That's exactly what I thought.

Bitcetus

This is not a crypto network, this is an exchange
As I told you no ETH is needed to activate the tokens, you need ETH to pay transaction fees only.

If you are trying to transfer USDT, try using Tron TRC20 network instead of Ethereum ERC20 network

Bitcetus say in 30.5 ETH is needed to activate which is like $46000?

how much ETH do I need for transaction fees? I'm a novice at this so hence why I am asking?

Thanks so far

I am still confused about your problem can you share the screenshoot so we can better understand the problem.

First of all from where did you transferred your usdt is another exchange or your personal wallet because it will matched if you send usdt and receive usdt unless you send other coin or other token
