1st... 0.2 btc for free like no exchange offer you that much amount for free..hehe Cheesy

2nd... they want me to deposit first into their wallet.

Maybe after this deposit i would lose my money.

My suggestion to you guys avoide these kinds of scam and stay safe.

I saw a notification about something like this yesterday, I guess the scammer posted it here with a brand new account of which the moderators have deleted the thread.

Anyone who fall for this scam is surely greedy and deserving of being scammed. Who will give you $7k for free just because you signed up in a website? ... that is really funny!

As a guide to all, "if it is too good to be true, then it probably isn't ".

It is a typical scam.
They're making it attractive and making victims greedy by showing on how much BTC that they're about to get through their accounts. But in reality, those are just projections and not real amount that they're going to allow a user to withdraw. There's no easy money ,remember that.

That's the process of it and you'll never get it back once you deposit and there's no 0.2 BTC as it's all illusion.

Common scams, this is too much too good to be true There is no task that you can earn easy money immediately and with a large amount to the user who will commit do you think they will earn a lot?, only scammers will just give an effort just to have this kind of platform. For sure most of the time they will promote that you will only withdraw those funds once you make a deposit for the fees, its worth it to exchange your information just to hope to earn a large amount instantly in crypto way too risky like you are just showing your self can be use for identity theft sooner or later there's a problem may arise. People online now is too much vulnerable make your self safe.

Testing fate to see if you would get out of it unscathed? You know that in this time, there's no one who would give you free money without something in return. Personally only the thought of receiving 0.02 BTC should have sounded alarm bells in my head and what said @Zaguru is correct; what if you had put yourself in danger by filling the KYC. I guess your curiosity was piqued when you saw the amount being offered and you decided to try it but imagine you fell for the deposit some BTC part and you got scammed, I guess you would have come here to report that the site is a scam site, trying to prevent others from making the same mistake, right. Perhaps you may be too ashamed to use yourself as the victim and probably create an imaginary friend who got scammed?
We should be careful of how we let our curiosity and greed get the better of us so we don't become victims of scammers who just want to lure naive users.

How did you stumble on that website?
Who did give you know about the exchange and its link to visit?

Actually last night i opened a thread which was created in Bitcoin discussion board by someone using newbie account and after sometime that thread was deleted by the moderators. So, i decided to warn those people here who are not aware of this scam.

Lastly, you made a bad mistake, I see your email address. You blurred something on the screenshot but did not blur what you need to do most.

Blur it and attach a new image, please.

The best guide would be to ignore it in the first place, it's shady because you can easily withdraw the bitcoin with that amount since the withdrawal fee for bitcoin is like 0.0002 higher or lower, it proves that it is a scam, you should not also share the referrals once you have found out.
This has been happening since 2017, yet some people still falls for this kind of scheme, that is why they never go away.

Don’t you think they might have tricked you to get what they want that is your details when you filled that KYC. Although the offer of 0.2BTC might be way off it but they were right to actually ask you to deposit before you can withdraw the offer. This one looks definitely like scam but i would say you wanted to rip them off too because why would you take their reward to enrich another exchange (in this case binance). I know once the withdrawal was successful you wouldn’t even come back to the exchange again.

Every exchange that runs this referrals always has its set of rules like you depositing first before you can withdraw as this will give them more liquidity so it is normal when they ask. This doesn’t mean you should believe any of this either.

Last Night I was using My mobile Phone and i stumble upon a website which is kind of exchange where we can buy or sell cryptocurrencies even we can make transaction using this website.

How did you stumble on that website?

Who did give you know about the exchange and its link to visit?

If you have to create your account, on a centralized platform, it is a first risky step. It is warned many times as one of best ways to lose your bitcoins.
Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts

On top of that, you received a very good offer that is too good to be true. 0.2 BTC is a very big money and it is impossible you can easily get it as a gift and think more, they provide it to many people not only you.

Lastly, you made a bad mistake, I see your email address. You blurred something on the screenshot but did not blur what you need to do most.

Blur it and attach a new image, please.

If you knew this much why did you still proceed with the process? It should be known to all that there’s no free money online and if you’re greedy enough to find one you’ll only end up getting scammed.

And this site you’re referring to has recently been used to spam the forum by some newbies account so if you were vigilant enough you should have known to stay away from it in the first place.

Last Night I was using My mobile Phone and i stumble upon a website which is kind of exchange where we can buy or sell cryptocurrencies even we can make transaction using this website.

I Created my account on this website and there i saw an option of referral and promotion. I click on it and tried to find a promotion code for this which was 6d479tvu.

After applying this promotion code i received 0.2 BTC into this website wallet as available balance as you guys can see in above picture.

I tried to withdraw this amount 0.2 BTC into my Binance wallet. Then they said verify your account. e.g KYC i started to verify my account.

1. First Step was simple like enter your name, Your Date of Birth etc.

2. In second step they said me to deposit amount in btc into website wallet which i found scam in my mind so i didn't deposit any amount into website wallet.

Why this question arise as scam in my mind?

1st... 0.2 btc for free like no exchange offer you that much amount for free..hehe Cheesy

2nd... they want me to deposit first into their wallet.

Maybe after this deposit i would lose my money.

My suggestion to you guys avoide these kinds of scam and stay safe.
