I'm reading similar stories in this section - it seems all occurred after changing security settings.

Can you go back and add IMG tags to the images you have posted, please?

He can't do that because he is a newbie ranking member.

Re-uploaded to talkimg because imgur is crap.

Same issue.

I got an email saying I'd won tenth place in the referral wagering contest (round 70).

I opened fbc to check my balance. The $50 had been added to my account. Suddenly it disappeared. Then I got the email with the payment confirmation link. I didn't click the link and the withdrawal was reversed after one hour. The funds added back to my account.

Then I too enabled 2FA and tried to withdraw.

I lost everything.

Now I have disabled 2FA.

Please forgive format. This is my first time posting something like this.
What happened: over the month of April, I had made large deposits of $2,000 at least three times and made my way into the monthly wagering contest. As one of the top 10, I ended up winning the contest at number 7 for a total of $500. Upon winning I received an email confirming my victory

However, less than a couple minutes later I noticed that my balance was drained and set to zero and I had gotten an email stating that I had made a withdrawal request which I did not make. I didn't even have time to.

I did not confirm the withdrawal as in I did not click the link. Therefore, it should be sent back to my balance within an hour.
I immediately started to change my 2fa and my passwords to keep my account secure.

While in the meantime My unauthorized request was canceled because the hour had lapsed. And the money was put back into my account.

I also had changed my deposit address into my crypto.com  wallet and made that into my default address.

I tried to cash it out however it got sent to a totally different address supposably my Bitcoin wallet on freebitco.in and it happened to be my old address so I changed my default address yet it sent it to my old address which I don't know how it did that
The same thing. Thank you. Here are two screenshots of how I don't even know this is possible

Now since I enabled my 2fa. It made it so I no longer needed a to do a email confirmation before the deposit was sent so I never got a verification email.

However, I got a verification that the Bitcoin had been sent to this supposed old address which I never sent to. Furthermore, the balance never showed up.

Here is a screenshot of it being confirmed on the freebitco.in website saying that I got a deposit from myself, however it never showed up in my balance.

At that moment I was screwed. Here's a summary of what I think is going on.

Keep in mind that the owner of the website the Quinn fails to ever respond to problems his users face on his website. Here's the summary.


The 2fa thing is part of the scam.

They make a withdraw request which triggers the email.

As a result of an UN requested withdrawal the customer gets spooked and immediately changes there security settings in belief that this will help secure there account.

However, this is a trojan horse that that allows the  withdrawal confirmation request to be disabled.

Thus, the original attacker is able to capitalize on the ignorance of the individual who is thinking there securing there account by enabling there 2fa security measures.

Using fear to trap the individual into unknowingly let there defense down and be luted by either hackers or some one on the inside or backend of the freebitco.in site.

It's genius really but completely f***** up

Either way, security or no security measures anyone can be targeted rendering this website
Extremely dangerous for anyone who has a balance.

This happened to me the other day right after I had won the wagering contest 7th place $500.

We can speculate all we want as to whether or not the websites secure .

But the fact that the matter is there's a few of us that would like to get the hard-earned money that we won.

So we can keep talking about what's wrong with the website or we can discuss how we're going to make reparations to these individuals.

However, if it's an inside job, there's little chance for recovering the funds other than reporting to the FTC and financial crimes units.

Mr. Quinn in my opinion is either part of The problem by allowing this to happen or he's directly involved. Either way, he's guilty by association because he knows his website's faulty and he fails to do anything about it.
